Story

Bear is about 3 years old and was rescued by my son from being killed. He was working in a kennel and the county brought an abandoned/lost dog. over the next 2 month my son developed a bond with the dog and could not let him be destroyed. over the last 2 years my son socialized and trained Bear, got him neutered/shots/micro chipped/obidence/potty on comand. My son is now in college with the dog in a small appartment and a college schedule. Both Bear and my son are stressed and this is what is best for both of them. He saved Bear, now he needs to let him go to a better home. Bear's favorite activity is chasing his frisbie and bringing it back to you. He would rather do this than eat treats.

Thunder

Rhodesian Ridgeback

Male, Young

Kalamazoo, MI

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

2 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback purebred. Overall, he has been a good dog, companion and he is super sweet. We are too busy, he’s not getting the attention he needs. Breaks my heart but, transparently it has not been a great fit for my young children and he needs someone with free time. He needs room to roam and a yard. He has played well with a German Shepherd and an American Bulldog in the past. He has never been around cats. He has been ok around my kids, but, due to his size, he is a hazard with them. He is very playful, but, if he knocks them over or jumps on them it is a problem. He is very protective of the kids and does not take well to playful wrestling or if other kids are chasing them. As the kids get older and have more friends over, I have concerns for that. He would be ideal in a home without kids and someone that can spend a lot of time with him. He is a big dog, so someone that understands that and what to expect.

Rex

Great Pyrenees Mutt

Male, Adult

Kalamazoo, MI

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Rex was found by a neighbor when we lived in Colorado before moving here. He had been abandoned and just turned 1. He is now 2 years old and is a sweet, loving, loyal dog that loves everyone and all other dogs. We took him in and think he had been abused, we think also left outside and not fed well. He was underweight and we got him back on track pretty quickly. We got him neutered, microchipped, and shots immediately (November of 2023). He has a problem though of escaping and it is very difficult to get him to come back. We had to move to Michigan in September. The escaping has continued and our landlord and neighbors are retaliating so we need to find him a new home. He needs lots of land and running opportunity. He is great with dogs and children (even small ones). He loves dog parks, car rides, playing in water, and cuddles all the time. We love him so much and want to make sure he goes to someone who will love him, too and give him a safe and good home that he deserves.
