Story
Meet Cairo! Cairo is an energetic, happy one year old American Bulldog/Pitbull mix. He is ready to say bon voyage and find his forever family! He is a dog's dog and does great with medium to larger dogs - he sometimes thinks he is a lap dog and forgets he's a big boy. His happy place is outdoors, although he is not a huge fan of being wet or cold. He also loves to play with durable toys and bones. He is goofy, silly, and full of energy, but also requires a nightly snuggle session on the couch with his humans before bed. He really is just a big, mushy love bug who just wants to give and get love from humans and dogs. He is potty trained and crate trained, and is working on walking calmly while on a leash - he does better when wearing a harness. Cairo is kid and dog friendly. He currently lives with a 60 pound dog and two children. He adores kids but sometimes doesn't realize his size so we reccommend kids who around 5 or older. Like many Michiganders, Cairo does have some seasonal allergies, but that doesn't slow him down! His allergies are super easy to handle, with a Zytrec added to his breakfast in the spring and fall, and an allergy safe food. Cairo's ideal home is an active family. He would prefer a big dog who will roughhouse with him, but he can be an only dog with someone who is active and home more often than not - a work from home, stay at home, or retiree situation. Kids would be a great addition too! Adoption is $275. Cairo has completed all medical, including neuter, deworming, vaccines, and microchip. Although we work to potty train all of our dogs, we cannot guarantee full house training before adoption. Regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home.

Story
Kimchi came to us when his owner went to prison. He was a very confused boy at first, but is now excited and fun! Kimchi loves toys! Stuffies, things with squeekers, chew bones, he loves them all! Kimchi would love an intimate household, with one or two people he could shower with love. He does well in his kennel, and loves yard time. Kimchi is pretty potty trained. Kimchi is available as a foster-to-adopt placement, and his adoption fee is also sponsored! Apply through our website: rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt

Story
Meet Diamond and Onyx: Two Sisters Dumped On The Street! These two gorgeous girls were found wandering the streets, alone and in need of a safe place to call home. A compassionate neighbor noticed them and spent several days ensuring they were secure and cared for. Thanks to this kindness, Diamond and Onyx are now ready to embark on a new journey toward a loving family. Both girls are incredibly sweet. They need slow introductions to other canine friends but have the potential to get along well. They can be fostered or adopted together or separately, depending on what’s best for them and you. With a bit of patience and love, they’ll show you just how fun and loving they can be. Diamond and Onyx are looking for foster-to-adopt homes where they can feel safe and cherished. Your home could be the fresh start they desperately need. Whether you’re able to welcome both sisters or just one, you’ll be giving them the gift of a loving family. Adoption is $275 if adopted individually, or $500 for the pair-which includes spay/neuter at our vet, vaccines, dewormer, microchip, and clean bill of health. Although we work to potty train all of our dogs, we cannot guarantee full house training before adoption. Regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home.

Story
Hey all, currently we are fostering Hazel. Her owner is unable to take care of her. We would consider keeping her but we have five cats. My wife had to leave with them in order to foster Hazel. She's really a sweet dog. Can be hyper at times, but it's not non-stop. She might get along OK with other animals, but we're not sure. Same with children. Loves long walks, car rides and play time. Behaves well when I'm at work. I've been snooping. Hope you consider giving this beautiful three year old American Bulldog a place in your home. If you do, she'll have a place in your heart, and you'll have a place in hers. Serious only, will be vetting. Looking for the best home for her.

Story
Bruno is a loving, sweet and protective dog. Real humble spirited and extremely friendly with humans; other dogs not so much as in his breed he can be extremely domineering and territorial, He is very well home train so you will need to let him outside several times of the day and you will be accident free. He is very low maintenance and really does his own thing but he will be very attentive of you or small children, Hes very mindful of his size and strength overall great dog. Unfortunately with my new job and current business I have to leave him alone for long periods of the day and with me in the process of moving I'm going to be down sizing in space and pets aren't allowed. I'm seeking a warm and loving home for him where he will continue to be spoiled and cared for like the big baby that he is. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Story
Pax came to us from a multiple-dog family, so he is good with other dogs. He's also great with the children in his foster home. He's looking for a forever home . . . how about yours? He is food motivated and an enthusiastic student when training. He rides comfortably in a car, is house trained, crate trained and leash trained. He has been surrounded by a loving foster family but his public exposure has been limited. Obedience classes would be great once he's comfortable in a new environment. They would reinforce the training he's had, and would widen his world, showing him unknown humans are a source of positive attention and rewards. FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN. The adoption fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea/Tick/Heartworm Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and Treated as Needed. FOCCAS does not DNA test or guarantee breed. My adoption fee (if picked up locally in Crossville, Tennessee) is $225. If transport is needed, my adoption fee is $525 (out of state, East Coast, Great Lakes or New England regions). Thank You for Your Interest in Adopting a Canine Companion from Foccas-tn.org!

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Citrus was living alone in an abandoned house with no doors or windows. We trapped her, and she got very upset. Citrus was growling for many many days, and did not allow any handling. She finally came around to trust us, and is now a loving sweetheart. Citrus wants an understanding foster-to-adopt home, who wants to baby her. She is estimated to be 2-4 years old, and a mix between English Bulldog and Boxer. Citrus has a classic cautious and disapproving yet personable English Bulldog personality, and the silly play style of a Boxer. We are looking for a household without children for Citrus. Leashed walks are fine, she does not require a fenced in yard. Citrus has dog friends at the shelter - but incorporating her into a home dynamic with other dogs will take weeks. If you are up for it, we can discuss. We cover all needed vet care. The adoption fee is $275. Please apply through our website: rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt
