Story
Sarti is a gentle senior girl with a heart full of quiet love, and she's ready to spend her golden years curled up beside someone special. Sarti has come a long way. When she first arrived, she was shy, timid, and a little trembly, unsure of the world around her. With patience, soft words, and plenty of cozy blankets, she has blossomed. Her foster has watched her sweet, spunky personality peek through as she's started feeling better, and nothing melts hearts quite like the happy tail wags she now gives when her person walks into the room. Sarti's favorite activity is simple: being close to you. She's a world-class snuggle buddy who would happily spend the whole day nestled in bed beside her human. When she drifts off to sleep, her little tongue pokes out and she snores softly, and it's every bit as adorable as it sounds. She's a calm, low-energy lady who doesn't need long walks or games of fetch. A soft bed, a warm lap, and maybe a ride in a doggy stroller for some fresh air are all she needs to be content. Sarti has no teeth left, so your shoes and furniture are completely safe, and she has never once been heard barking. Sarti gets along wonderfully with other dogs. She loves cuddling up with her foster brother at night, and she's content being home with her canine pals when her person is away. She has shown no interest in cats and has a low prey drive. She hasn't met children yet, but her gentle nature suggests she'd do well with calm, respectful kids. She's shy with new people at first but friendly once she settles in and knows that you are safe. A few things her new family should know: Sarti needs to wear a diaper, as she's no longer able to hold her bladder. She sleeps in bed with her foster family (with a little caution, since she can occasionally tumble out), and she isn't crate trained. She feels safest in familiar surroundings and prefers to be near her person, so a home where someone is around often, or where she has doggy companions, would suit her best. Sarti may not be the most active or playful pup, but she has so much love to give. She deserves a soft place to land, a patient heart, and someone who will keep her comfortable and cherished for the rest of her days. *Estimated to be 11 years young *14 lbs. of CUTENESS *Spayed, UTD on vaccines, heartworm negative, had a recent dental, and fecal tested *Low energy *Dog and cat friendly *Wears diapers Apply Here: https://peaceloveandpawsrescue.com/adopt%2Ffoster-application

Story
Meet Happy. (The name is deeply ironic.) Happy is a 5-pound senior Chihuahua with approximately 13–14 years of experience judging everyone around her. After her owner passed away, this tiny tyrant found herself in an overcrowded Detroit shelter. We couldn't leave her there, so we scooped her up and brought her to safety. Since then, Happy has made her feelings about the world abundantly clear. Dogs? Absolutely not. Cats? Don't even ask. Children? She'd like to file a formal complaint. Strangers? Suspicious. You? Maybe. We'll see. Happy is looking for a retirement home where she can spend her golden years doing what she loves most: napping, eating gourmet meals, and silently evaluating your life choices from across the room. She isn't a cuddler. She doesn't want to play fetch. She doesn't care about your exciting day at work. What she DOES want is for her person to exist nearby at all times without making a big deal about it. Think of her less as a dog and more as a tiny, elderly roommate who pays no bills and occasionally screams at things. Happy currently enjoys a carefully curated menu of cooked hamburger and boiled chicken because she has standards. She is pee-pad trained but has occasional accidents and may need diapers in the future. She's earned the right to be a little high maintenance. Despite her spicy attitude, Happy deserves a soft place to land. Beneath all that Chihuahua sass is a little old lady whose world was turned upside down and who simply wants a quiet home to live out her remaining years in peace. Happy's Requirements: • No dogs • No cats • No children • No nonsense Happy's Stats: • Approximately 13–14 years old • 5 lbs. of pure audacity • Up-to-date on vaccines • Microchipped • Pee-pad trained • Professional nap enthusiast • Tiny dictator seeking her kingdom If you've ever thought, "I wish my pet loved me slightly less," then Happy may be the girl for you.

Story
🚨 URGENT FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED 🚨 Meet Alice 💛 Alice is a senior girl looking for a very specific, understanding home. We believe in being completely transparent about her needs so that any potential placement puts both Alice and her adopter in the best possible position for success. Alice has significant, progressive medical conditions, including Cushing’s disease, a grade 3 heart murmur/enlarged heart, severe arthritis and spinal changes, chronic pain, dental disease, mammary nodules, and possible vision impairment. Her mobility is limited, and discomfort greatly affects her behavior. Alice tends to bond intensely with one person and can become fearful and reactive toward others. She has a history of growling, lunging, and multiple inhibited bites/bite attempts toward adults, primarily men, as well as incidents involving cats. Most have not caused injury, although one recent incident involved holding onto a pant leg with significant pressure. She can also resource guard her preferred person. Because of this history, Alice requires an exceptionally specific home: one adult woman, no men, children, cats, or dogs, and no apartments or condos. A securely fenced private yard is required. Her adopter must be experienced with fearful/reactive dogs, understand canine body language, and be comfortable with lifelong management and significant veterinary expenses. Alice struggles with separation, confinement, strangers, movement, noise, handling, and activity that increases her pain. Despite veterinary care, medication, professional training, and extensive management, her progress has been limited. Alice isn’t a dog for everyone. She needs someone who fully understands her medical and behavioral history and is prepared to prioritize her comfort, safety, and quality of life above everything else. 💛 Interested in fostering Alice?

Story
Lori is Licha's daughter. She loves affection and attention once she gets to know you. She's timid at first but loves treats and toys. Potty pad trained, no aggression, and sat still for vetting. Very sweet. 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!
