Story
Bella is a very sweet dog. She is great with my two younger children and gets along well with my cat and older Pitt bull. So why do I need to re-home her? Since I purchased her, I have needed to go back to work full time and have become a single mother. She just isn't getting the attention she deserves and I feel horrible about that. I hope she can find a loving home with lots of room to romp and play.

Story
Piper is the sweetest, most loving girl ever! She will be two years old in January 2025. All she wants to do is snuggle and run around! We just had a new born baby who is 4 months old, and that’s the only kid she’s been around, but has been really protective over her and sweet and caring!! She has a small issue with digging but that’s mainly due to the fact of lack of attention with us parents being so busy. Other than that, she is a really great dog and deserves a really nice home with a family to love and care for her:)

We took tiny in from a family member since she was going to be taken to the shelter. Unfortunately we can no longer keep her, we have a newborn and we can’t give tiny the attention she needs. Tiny is a very sweet girl, she is very playful and knows simple commands. She is crate train and house trained. Tiny is not leash train. She does not have any behavior issues. She gets along with our older children.

Story
Nova means new and this amazing dog is ready for her new forever home. Could it be you? Nova just like her namesake is a bright star with powerful energy. Her loving spirit will melt your heart. She just wants to be with her people. She is both a snuggle bug and a playful, funny girl. She knows basic commands and has been a great addition to her foster family. She gets along with her foster brother, they play and share the house space well, but would need to be cat tested. She loves walks, toys (the tough kind), and time with her humans. She is treat-motivated and has continued crate training and leash work in her foster home, of which she has made enormous progress in a short time. She would need a home committed to continuing this work as well as addressing her allergy issues through diet and over-the-counter allergy medication. Her foster parents are Emily Z.    The adoption fee for Nova is $200.Please complete our online application form if you are interested in adopting Nova. A volunteer will contact you as soon as possible. Click here to go to the online adoption form All Kalamazoo Animal Rescue dogs & puppies are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. Dogs have been heartworm tested and if appropriate (age and time of year) all dogs and puppies are given heartworm preventative. All are given medication to rid them of roundworms and checked and treated for fleas & ear mites, if needed. Dogs and puppies are given distemper vaccines and depending on how long the pet has been in foster care, additional distemper vaccine(s) may be necessary and the expense will be incurred by the adopter. Any canine over 4 months of age is brought current on the Rabies vaccine. Additional vet care may have been provided depending on the particular animal's needs. Dogs are individually priced as above. Please note that we do not ship dogs and we cannot guarantee that a long trip to see a foster dog will result in an adoption or taking the dog home on that day. It is in the best interest of pooch and owner to enroll in an obedience class soon after adoption. After all, you have a lot to learn about your new friend. The Kalamazoo Dog Training Club offers a discount to owners with newly adopted dogs. Enroll before any behavior problems start - you won't regret it!

Story
Kenpachi, or Pachi. 4 years old with a birthday on September 3rd. Behind on yearly rabies only. He knows some tricks and some words for sure. He is a heavy big lug of a guy, loves to run and tug on things. Loud and super friendly, I have yet to meet a living thing he doesn't like. He is curious and sweet, loves to cuddle. I have a cat and 3 boys and they all get along, he isn't a dominate personality, well he is to the cat. He loves a good brushing. Crate trained and eats in the crate as well. We use a lead and he loves to dig a pit to sleep in, usually it is the same spot. The reason for rehome is because we have become disabled with physical disabilities and need help with the care of them, which professionally is out of the range of our disabilities. He doesn't like baths and is strong enough to get way from us. This rehome is for his health. Tricks: sit, lay down, paw Understands: thirsty, potty, pooping, treat, cheese, chicken

This is Ruth or Mama, or Mamabear. She is a very active and very affectionate gal. 4 years old oh February 12th. She is crate trained and very food motivated she. She eats in her crate. Her favorite thing is tennis balls, nothing that squeaks, she will destroy it. She will toss the ball and chase it. She is house broken and very cuddly, loves to take over blankets and bask in the sun. When it comes to collars she is a harness only kind of gal. A good harness with a chest clip, her head is small so she can just pull it out of anything else. She is very teachable and loves to do tricks for treats, she was learning how to use buttons. She loves cheese and hot dogs, but isn't picky. She is only missing rabies shot. Her tail keeps getting happy tail end.
