Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello, My name's Thomas and I'm an 8 week old All American Pittie . The good people at the county shelter and ARP got my mom (Mia) into a foster home when she was ready to pop and here I am with my siblings LB, Keller, Rorsch and Susan!
I was named after someone who helped to take care of me, but my name fits because I'm little Thomas the Tank Engine! Built stocky, stout and strong, with a heart of gold. I play by myself well, but "Tug" takes two and that's my favorite game!
I have been socialized with people from the moment I was born and with other dogs too. I'm also working hard on crate-training and house-breaking. It's a "Tug" life, so are you up for some resistance training?! Hit me up!

The Animal Rescue Project is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues—and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.
All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws.
Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $25 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization.
The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan
