Hi, I'm Whimsical! I'm a 2 year old beagle, husky, and terrier mix (DNA tested!) with a playful heart and a curious spirit. I’m about 35 pounds, the perfect size for adventures! It takes me a little time to warm up to adult men, but once I do, I’m all in for playtime and belly rubs.
I’ve been in a loving foster home since I was a young pup, living with three other dogs, a guinea pig, and a lovebird! I haven’t really interacted with the smaller animals, but I’m not aggressive toward them. I would be best in a home without cats though. My best buddy is Rylee the golden retriever, we have so much fun together! I’m a social pup who loves to play, but I’m still learning my manners like not jumping up when I get too excited.
I'm house-trained, know basic commands like "sit" and "come," and I’m very smart and observant. I’d do best with a family or an individual (older kids are great!) who can spend time walking, playing, and continuing my training.
I’ve got so much love to give, I just need a patient, dedicated home where I can keep learning and growing. If you think I could be the missing piece to your family, please apply to meet me!
The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.
Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet.
Please understand that these animals are still new to us and their needs and requirements can change at any time as we learn more about them. We will try our best to get them updated online as soon as possible.
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. All dogs are also microchipped.
Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 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.
