You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Bio from rescuer: Please contact directly if you can assist with this sweet girl <3 Hello. This is Roxy. She goes by Roxy, Rox, or her favorite, ROXER! We took her in Xmas eve last minute, from her owner of 10+ years, who was going to put her down if he didn’t find a home due to “not having time for her anymore.” She is 13/14 years old. Boxer mix. She has a growth on her leg that her prev owner said was non cancerous and didn’t need to be removed, but it affects her walking to where she has a limp. She is such a sweet girl and would do good in a home w older or less hyper dogs. Or at least trained dogs! she just needs a good home! She’s still playful and very energetic! She enjoys lots of cuddles! Grew up around kids, dogs, and cats! ? She is also spayed and housebroken! She loves loves loves lots of cookies (aka dog treats haha). Located in Saginaw MI Please help me find this girl a great forever home.

Story
If you’re looking for a furry best friend who radiates love, resilience, and pure joy, then two-year-old Benji is ready to meet you. This handsome boxer mix has been on quite a journey, and now he’s hoping his next chapter will be the one where he finally gets everything he deserves.Benji and his “brother” Creed have spent over five long months at Animal Control. When Benji first arrived, he was heartbreakingly thin—just 21 pounds, with every rib and bone visible beneath his coat. It was clear he hadn’t known the comfort of regular meals or the safety of a loving home. But thanks to good food, gentle care, and his own incredible spirit, Benji has blossomed. Today he weighs a healthy 49 pounds, his coat shines, and he greets each day with a playful tail wag and a heart full of hope.Benji is the kind of dog who wins you over instantly. He’s sweet, friendly, and deeply affectionate, happily soaking up attention from the humans who have become his temporary family. He’s also a fantastic playmate and gets along beautifully with other dogs, with a special talent for matching their play styles—whether it’s silly zoomies, wrestling, or gentle chase. A canine friend with upbeat, positive energy would make his new home even brighter. He already knows how to sit on command, and because he’s very treat-motivated, he’ll be a star student as he learns new tricks and manners.After all he’s endured, Benji deserves a home filled with stability, patience, and love. His ideal family will lead an active lifestyle, as Benji adores exercise and exploring. A securely fenced yard is essential for his safety and happiness. Because he’s still working on keeping his excitement and jumping in check, a home with children over the age of 14 is recommended. He hasn’t been tested with cats, so if his new family includes feline friends, slow and careful introductions will be important.While we had hoped Benji and Creed could be adopted together, it isn’t required. Benji is ready to be cherished—whether he joins a family with another dog or becomes the newest solo member of your household.Benji is more than a rescue dog—he’s a survivor with a joyful heart and so much love to give. He’ll celebrate life with you, learn beside you, and remind you every day what gratitude looks like. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to open your home and your heart, this is Benji. This is your sign. Come meet this beautiful soul and see for yourself why everyone who knows him believes he deserves the very bes

Story
looking for a loving home for my 4-month-old Boxer puppy, born on June 28, 2025. He’s a bright, energetic little guy with a big personality and lots of love to give. He’s already had his first round of vaccinations and flea and tick prevention, and he’s been learning the basics like how to walk nicely on a leash and follow commands — he already knows sit and lay down! He’s still working on potty training and has the occasional accident indoors, but he’s doing great when taken outside regularly. After naps or crate time, he sometimes gets a burst of playful energy (the “zoomies”), which always brings a smile. He’s very playful and curious, loves having chew toys around, and is quickly turning into a loyal companion. With a little more time and attention, he’ll make an amazing family pet. Cooper currently lives in Macomb Township Michigan! I’m hoping to find someone who can give him the love, training, and playtime.

Buster was found running down the road. We found out that he was adopted from a shelter, but the lady couldn't keep him, so she gave him away and apparently, they didn't want him either. He's a good boy just looking for his forever family. He is 5 months old and gets along with everyone.
