Story
💛🐾 LYLA IS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO WILL LET LOVE TAKE ITS TIME. 🐾💛 Found alone in Detroit’s Rouge Park after reportedly being dumped, Lyla was frightened and unsure who to trust. Our volunteer spent hours patiently earning her trust before she felt safe enough to get into the car. ❤️‍🩹 Now safe with Happy Paws Haven, Lyla is looking for a home that understands trust isn’t something you can rush. 🏡 Lyla’s ideal home: 🐾 A quiet, adult-only home, no children. 🐾 An only-pet home. She hasn’t had much positive exposure to dogs, and she chases cats. 🐾 A securely fenced yard. 🐾 Someone experienced with fearful dogs who need time to warm up to unfamiliar people. 🐾 A patient, gentle adopter who will respect her space and never force affection or interactions. Lyla may not come running into your arms when you first meet her. She needs someone willing to show up calmly, follow her pace, and give her time to feel secure. That first meeting may be about simply sharing space, and that’s okay. 💛 Meet-and-greets can begin after November 16, 2026. Please be prepared for a gradual introduction process and potentially multiple visits as she gets to know you. We’re looking for someone who sees the value in every small step: choosing to come closer, relaxing in your presence, and slowly learning that she can count on you. 🥹❤️ 📩 If you have the experience and home Lyla needs, please complete an adoption application to learn more about our adoption process. https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HPH/Dog Please share to help us find her patient person. Her journey began with someone willing to wait, and her next chapter deserves that same kindness. 💛🐾

Story
Kiera is a giant love bug to humans of all sizes. She has recently decided she does not like her house mates (other dogs) even though they are fine with her. She loves to cuddle up on the couch and lay her head in your lap. She is a great people dog with an amazing personality.

Story
💗 Name: Lucky 📅 Intake Date: 4/7/25 🎂 Birthday (DOB): 6/8/24 ✂️ Altered: Yes 🩺 Heartworm Status: Negative ⚖️ Weight: 64 lbs 🐾 Good with other dogs? No 🐈 Good with cats? No 👦 Good with kids? Yes 🐕 Leash Trained? Yes 🏠 House Trained? Yes Lucky is a 2-year-old Boxer mix with a happy, laid-back personality and a lot going for him. He’s house trained, crate trained, and walks well on a leash. He also knows “sit” and is wonderful with kids. Lucky is not a fan of other dogs, so he’d be happiest as the only pet in his home. For his person, that means getting this friendly guy all to themselves. If you’re looking for a young dog who already has the basics down and is ready to be part of the family, Lucky would love to meet you. -------------- Currently this sweet baby is with our rescue, The Artemis Project, in Arkansas. We DO, however, transport monthly to the metro Detroit area of MI. Because we’re able to transport, we ARE able to accept adoption applications directly from residents of MI. Why do we transport? Because animal overpopulation is severe in our region, and stray and unwanted dogs have very little chance of finding a home here. These babies are, however, at a high risk of being neglected, abused, abandoned, euthanized or even shot (it’s “the way things are done” for some people down here). YOU are truly one of the only safe and happy endings for the lucky ones we are able to rescue. Upon approval of your adoption application, we will then transport your new furbaby to you in the metro Detroit area for just a small travel expense fee of $50 in addition to the adoption fee. MICHIGAN RESIDENTS—>PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW TO FILL OUT THE ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://new.shelterluv.com/form/other/TAP/2450-michigan-adoption Before we can change your new furbaby’s status from "adoptable" to "adoption pending," the $50 transport fee must be paid to secure the adoption. At that time, we will stop accepting applications. The entire adoption fee must be paid prior to the transport in order to ensure your new baby has a spot on the transport. Thank you SO MUCH for giving a homeless Arkansas pup a chance at a real life with a family of their very own!

Unknown 👦 Good with kids? Unknown 🐕 Leash Trained? Unknown 🏠 House Trained? Unknown Meet Manny! This handsome Boxer/Lab mix is an absolute knockout, and his personality is just as impressive as his looks. This middleweight champ got a second chance and now he’s ready for the next round: finding his person. Manny’s favorite things? Playing ball, getting belly rubs, and spending time with his favorite human. Manny is dog selective, so proper introductions are needed. He doesn’t need a championship belt to know he’s a winner; just give him a little attention and a chance to hang out with you, and he’s right where he wants to be.

Unknown 🐕 Leash Trained? Yes 🏠 House Trained? Unknown Paddy has a little Irish swagger - and he’s not afraid to show it. This Boxer/Terrier mix has an old leg injury that gives him a distinctive step, but it doesn’t slow him down one bit. He’s simply got his own rhythm. Paddy is an easygoing guy who gets along beautifully with other dogs. He’s gentle with good manners. He walks nicely on leash, keeps a clean kennel, and is the kind of dog who quietly fits into your life. Paddy was a last-minute save from a rural pound, and he’s turned out to be quite the lucky find. He’s ready for someone who will be happy to choose him. ------------- Currently this sweet baby is with our rescue, The Artemis Project, in Arkansas.

Story
**If you are interested in adopting Bella, please contact Lauren at (313) 516-1373.** Meet Bella! ❤️ Bella is a beautiful 6-year-old Pit Bull mix with a heart as big as her smile. She is spayed, up to date on all of her vaccines, and ready to find a loving family to call her own. Bella has spent most of her life around children and does especially well with older, respectful kids who understand dog boundaries. She has been gentle with children of all ages and would make a wonderful family companion. She is a very adaptable dog who would thrive in just about any home, whether it's a quiet household or one that's full of activity. Bella is happiest when she's spending time with her people—whether that's cuddling on the couch, running around the yard, or showing off her playful hops and zoomies. Bella gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion. She has never been around cats, so a slow and proper introduction would be recommended if her new home includes feline friends. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate, and fun-loving best friend, Bella could be the perfect match. She can't wait to meet the family that will give her the love and forever home she deserves! *This pet is featured through our Pet Re-Homing Program. This is a private pet.
