Maggie is an almost 2 year old mix. She is full of energy, sweet, loves her people, water, and toys. She could use an experienced owner who is good with Alpha training. No kids under 12 is best. She is part hound and will alert to any people coming to the home. She needs a fenced yard where she can tire herself out then she settles down nicely.

Story
🍁🍁🍁Are u ready to FALL in love?? Meet our sweet gentleman known as Goober! We believe him to be around 2 years old, and some sort of Retriever mix. When Mr. Goober was found on the streets, he was in pretty poor condition. With a little TLC he’s looking more & more dapper everyday. We named him Goober due to his goofy personality. Mr. Goobs loves his toys, he will hop around and try to entice you to play with him. He is also quite the cuddle bug, closeness is not an issue for him, although he can be somewhat timid with new experiences. He also enjoys all his meals and it’s not overly selective about what you have to offer him. Due to his past, he does not have a lot of training under his belt. He knows some basic commands, but does need to work on things like jumping on people. He’s just starting his new life so that’s to be expected. A couple key points about Goober - 💥When he was found, he lacked most of his hair. We do not know the cause of this although we assume it was a severe flea allergy reaction. His hair is growing in steadily and we assume it’ll be a longer coat. 💥Goobs gets along with other dogs and cats although we do think his best placement would be with calmer dog. 💥Goober is an active boy and needs an active lifestyle, a fenced in yard would be ideal for him and if that is not possible, he would need to remain on a leash as his recall is not the greatest. 💥Lastly, he some some trauma to some of his front teeth. Due to him still healing at this time we are not putting him through the dental work just yet. Sometime in the near future he’ll need a dental to extract some broken teeth where the roots remain. It is not causing him any medical issues currently. We assume he was hit by something in the face. If you are interested in accepting Mr. Goob’s into your home, please email us for an application for adoption at - ➡️ canineliberationleague@gmail.com OR visit our website to fill out an online app ➡️ www.canineliberationleague.com Goober is current on all vaccinations, including Rabies, DHPP, Lepto & Bordetella. He has also been neutered, microchipped, fecal & heartworm tested. 📍Located in South Lyon, MI

Story
I’ve had Jasper since he was a tiny puppy. He is a good dog but struggles with human aggression. He has great with people once he gets to know them but it takes awhile for him to get used to someone. He is great with my other dog Samantha and loves my family. It has become hard to live with him since training and medications he has not improved much. I would like to try to find him a new loving home before going the route of putting him down. I am in touch with my trainer and would have her help in the rehoming process.

Story
White American Lab x Sheppard. Male, 10 years old, and 80lbs. UTD on shots, neutered, and micro chipped. 100% house trained! He free roams from 5a to 5p. He's used to being alone for long periods of time with no accidents or destruction of property. He's a water dog, bed hog, couch potato, and loves his walks, playing fetch, or soaking up the sun. Truth be told, he's a very calm companion and just wants to be loved. He's a good dog to a specific home. 1. He must be the only dog in home (aggressive towards dogs&cats). 2. Great with adults (NOT kid friendly!! Has attacked 2 children within the past 4 years. Will be suitable for ages 16+ only). I adopted him as a 5mo old. I now have grandchildren and due to a recent attack to one of them, he must be rehomed. He's a good dog and I want to give him another chance to find his perfect fit. It's just not me. Please contact me if interested in adopting Tucker. He needs a furever loving home! **FREE TO GOOD HOME**

Story
Make sure you let us know you saw Bruno on Adopt-a-pet.*In a foster home, call for meet/greet* Talk about a lug head, this big guy was found as a stray by a vet tech who tried to find his owner. With no luck he ended up at the shelter. Bruno quickly showed us what a ham he is, he's quite the crooner too! Bruno does bark to get your attention and when he's excited. This smart pup knows sit, shake, down, he comes when called, enjoys walks (he's strong), loves to romp around the yard, loves to "fish" out of the pool, and has done well with the canine friends he's met, he will not share toys and shows some possessiveness of them. Bruno is a big boy, with a big heart, he loves everyone. We say no small children due to his size and tendency to chew up toys. If you've been looking for a a big pup that doesn't require a lot of work make sure to visit with Bruno Mars!
