Story
I adopted Fin, my Catahoula Leopard Dog, from Noah’s Project when he was just a puppy. Now at seven years old, he has grown into a wonderful companion. From the moment I brought him home, he captured my heart with his playful spirit and loyal nature. Fin loves to play ball and is always eager for a game of fetch. He enjoys long walks, and his friendly demeanor makes him a great companion on adventures. After two years, I decided to adopt another dog, and Fin welcomed the new addition with open paws, proving he’s not only good with other pets but also incredibly adaptable. He’s great with kids and elderly family members. One of his favorite things is to have his belly rubbed; he could enjoy that all day long! He’s never tried to run away and always stays close by my side, which is a testament to his loyalty and bond with me. He is a genuine good dog. I am sad to see him go but I know someone out there would give him the attention he needs.

Story
Stanley is a playful and affectionate dog. He is a 6-year-old Texas Heeler, an Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie mix. We got him from a rescue at 6 months old. He weighs 50 pounds. He loves any form of fetch and has excelled at any training or activity we have done with him. He's pretty good at frisbee! He loves to cuddle and curl up at your feet. He does not do well alone for long stretches, so you would need someone home with him in general. He's fine for like 6 hours at a time. We would like to keep him, but we have a toddler and a baby who is looking to start walking, and Stanley bumps the girls over (like when walking past). He's great with kids other than that, we just think he'd be better with older kids. He gets along with other dogs in general, but would be better with bigger, non-aggressive dogs. We'd have to introduce any potential pet-siblings and see how they get along.

Story
Meet Cooper; She is very sweet girl, who is looking for her fur-ever home. We believe she is around 3-4 years old and is a cattle dog mix. She came to us when her owner passed away and the other owner couldn’t care for her. Due to her breed or mix of breeds we are looking for a very specific home for her where she will be set up best for success! Cooper is pretty reactive towards people on leash and will nip at shins or ankles. She enjoys lots of exercise, biking right now seems to be her favorite. She’d probably do best as an only dog, as loves all the attention on her! She has had some interaction with other dogs on leash and she will correct them if their energy becomes to much for her.   Cooper also needs a kid free home.   We are requiring that her fur-ever home have heeler experience and be committed to getting her the training that she needs. Cooper will also need someone who is willing to do some training with her. **Cooper being a heeler mix does have high herding tendencies, and has a single “bite history” as she nipped someone in the calf.     An approved adoption application is required. The $200 adoption fee (payable by cash or check only) includes spay/neuter; microchip; dental teeth cleaning (if needed prior to adoption); vaccinations; and heartworm testing. Our adoption application may be found by going to: www.headinhomerescue.org; then click on the link to the adoption application. Dogs for adoption may be seen by appointment only following an approved application. Proof of completion of an obedience class is required for all dogs following adoption. Please note: while we welcome out of state applications, we do not ship our animals and require adopters to come to Holland to finalize any adoption.October 24, 2024, 1:33 pm

Story
Let me introduce you to Lake Haven’s newest Mr. Wonderful, Loki He was a stray who was rescued by good Samaritans. Loki is a 1 year old, 38 pound, tricolor Blue Heeler. If you are unfamiliar with the breed, as I was, let me give you a brief synopsis:Blue Heelers are also know as Australian Cattle dogs. They are herding dogs. Love to run and keep anything on their chosen path. A bit wary with strangers; once they warm up to you they are incredibly loyal. A medium size dog that would do best with a fenced yard to help expel all that energy and keep him from going astray again He has done very well with his two foster sister dogs. Wrestling and running their yard is a highlight of his day. Oh that, and occasional treats. Not exposed to cats, so unsure how he’d react. Loki is housebroken. He is also crate trained. He appreciates a good couch nap too. He has been neutered, vaccinated, extensive bloodwork, urinalysis, Heartworm tested and on preventatives. He also has a microchip with lifetime registration for new owners Think you can provide this young, handsome, active boy with his perfect forever home? Please apply at:lakehavenrescue.org And don’t forget to call your current/former vet and give them permission to speak with our volunteer when called. Let’s get Loki his Christmas wish, a new forever home! Apply at www.lakehavenrescue.org
