Story
Meet Chip! Chip is a gentle giant, who has quickly become a shelter favorite! He was unfortunately found out running with another dog during the coldest part of January in Michigan. Chip had frostbite on all 4 of his feet and his nose and was very skinny when he came to us. Chip loves food, treats, and humans. We would recommend only older kids, because of his size. Chip is NOT a fan of other dogs while in the shelter, and has also tried to chase cats, so we would recommend that he would be the only pet in the household. He has a very high prey drive. In his previous life, he lived outdoors tied to a tree, but he is doing very well keeping a clean kennel while here in the shelter. He loves to push and rub his head into his human friends so they can pet him forever. He does great walking on a leash and knows a few commands! Chip is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Application: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/signup/664c2ea080ba55b07a0e6299

Story
Meet King! King is a Beautiful Blue Nosed Pittie who loves humans. He is just over a year old and still has a boatload of puppy-like energy! He loves toys, especially those that squeak, but he is a rope toy tug-of-war champion here at the shelter! King gives definite “Hippo Pup” vibes, and after a good time playing, he loves to snuggle with a human and give all the kisses. We are not sure how he feels about cats, but we do know he’s dog selective (meaning he likes some dogs, but not all). We think he’d live nicely with a dog that could play with him and match his energy. We would require a meet and greet before adoption to make sure they get along. King loves treats of any kind so much that sometimes he gets a bit grabby. We are working on teaching him some manners and patience when it comes to getting his favorite snacks! King is neutered, microchipped, up to date on all of his vaccines, and tested negative for heartworm. Apply for King here: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/signup/664c2ea080ba55b07a0e6299

Story
Meet Raphael! Raphael is a 2-year-old Wooly Coated Siberian Husky. Before coming to our shelter, he was kept outside in a small kennel and used for breeding. He’s never had a home with a family, and toys, and a yard to run around in. Because of his history, we are working to help him show interest in playing, walking, and just snuggling. He is not affected by other dogs' behaviors here at the shelter. He’s learning what toys are, and he’s learning that human affection can be a really great thing. He needs someone that is ready to take their time to show him how to be a dog. We think that Raphael would do great in a home with another laid-back dog that can show him how to live the good life, in a home with a family. He’s only 2 and has a lot of years ahead of him! Raphael is neutered, microchipped, up to date on his vaccinations, and tested negative for heartworm. Apply for Raphael here! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/signup/664c2ea080ba55b07a0e6299

Story
Meet Baby! Baby is a medium mixed breed around 1 year old. She’s high energy as she is still young. She is a very sweet girl that loves humans! Her previous owner said she likes to chase the neighborhood cats, but she’s dog friendly and she’s very kid friendly. One of Baby’s favorite things is frozen Kong toys. (We fill a Kong with various things like treats, pureed pumpkin, blueberries, strawberries, and even wet food, and we put them in the freezer. Great enrichment for these hot days!) Baby also loves to play with toys, and is learning how to fetch. She struggles to let the ball go (“no take, only throw!”) but she’s getting better. We are also working on her with basic commands. She walks great on a leash. Baby is spayed, microchipped, up to date on all of her vaccinations, and tested negative for heartworm.

Story
Meet Dutton, a puppy with a heart as big as his personality. He loves to play with toys and loves to run around our play yard as fast as he can. His big, beautiful eyes will have you falling in love with him right away! Dutton's curious nature and friendly demeanor make him a joy to be around. He loves people of all ages and sizes. He gets along with the other dogs here and does great in play groups. He is curious about cats but doesn’t seem menacing at all. Dutton has puppy energy that will need someone that is ready to give him the outlets he needs. Puppies can be destructive, especially when they are bored or have not had enough play-time! Dutton is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. He is too young for heartworm testing. Apply here! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/signup/664c2ea080ba55b07a0e6299

Story
Meet Dopey! Dopey is one of our “7 dwarf” pups! He doesn’t live up to the name though; he’s very smart! We are working on teaching him some of the basics while he is here with us, and he’s picking up on things very quickly! He is learning to walk on a leash, and how to “sit”, “stay”, and “lay down”! Dopey is the first of our litter to be ready to go to a new home, and he is looking for someone who is ready to teach him all the ways to be an awesome pup. Maybe someday his ears will figure things out, but for now they are trying out up, down, both up, both down. Any way you slice it, he’s adorable and ready to go! Dopey is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all of his age-appropriate vaccinations. He is too young to be checked for Heartworm. Apply for Dopey here! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/signup/664c2ea080ba55b07a0e6299
