Story
I'm Odie, a handsome 6-year-old cream Golden Retriever, and I come as part of a dynamic duo, I'm bonded with my companion and we're a package deal! 🐕 At a strapping 60–99 pounds, I'm neutered and ready to bring double the love to a home that can keep us together. We're inseparable, and adopting us means getting twice the devotion, twice the loyalty, and twice the joy. 💛🐾 TWO HEARTS. ONE FOREVER HOME. MEET ODIE & MARLEY! 💛 Some bonds are simply too special to break. For Odie and Marley, their entire lives have been spent side by side. Now, this beautiful father-and-daughter Golden Retriever duo is searching for a forever family who will love them both. They are a bonded pair and must be adopted together! ❤️ 💙 MEET ODIE — THE GENTLEMAN WITH A HEART OF GOLD! Odie is a handsome 6-year-old English Cream Golden Retriever with a gentle soul and a heart full of love. He's the calm, steady presence of this adorable duo, happiest when he's close to his favorite people and, of course, his daughter Marley! Odie is affectionate, patient and wonderfully sweet. He's the kind of boy who will quietly lean into you for affection, enjoy your company and remind you just how special the love of a Golden Retriever can be. His one little vulnerability? Thunderstorms! ⛈️ When the skies get loud, Odie needs a little extra comfort and reassurance from his people. A loving family willing to help him feel safe during storms will mean the world to him. 🩷 MEET MARLEY — THE SPIRITED GIRL WHO KEEPS DAD ON HIS TOES! Marley is Odie's beautiful 5-year-old daughter, and she is FULL of personality! This gorgeous Golden Retriever is intelligent, adventurous, playful and always ready to make life a little more exciting. She's the perfect combination of brains, beauty and Golden Retriever enthusiasm! Marley loves having things to do and would thrive with a family who enjoys walks, playtime, enrichment activities and keeping her clever mind busy. She's eager to learn, loves engagement and brings a contagious energy wherever she goes. But her favorite companion has always been her dad. Whether they're exploring together, enjoying some playtime or simply relaxing, Marley is happiest with Odie by her side. 🏡 TWO INCREDIBLE DOGS. ONE VERY SPECIAL ADOPTION. A little more about this beautiful duo 🐾 Odie: 6-year-old male English Cream Golden Retriever 🐾 Marley: 5-year-old female Golden Retriever ❤️ Bonded father and daughter — must stay together 🐶 Excellent with other dogs 👧 Wonderful with children 💉 Up to date on vaccinations and preventatives 🩺 Current on routine veterinary care 🛁 Accustomed to regular professional grooming 🏡 Raised together in a loving home Odie and Marley have known nothing but life together. Separating them would mean taking away the one constant they've always had in each other, and we want their next chapter to be one they get to experience together. Their ideal forever family will appreciate Odie's gentle, affectionate nature while embracing Marley's playful personality and need for mental stimulation. In return, they'll receive double the Golden Retriever love, double the companionship and two incredibly devoted best friends. We're not looking for two separate homes. We're looking for ONE extraordinary family with room in their hearts for BOTH. 🥹💛 If you've ever dreamed of having two beautiful Golden Retrievers by your side, Odie and Marley might just be the missing pieces of your family. 📍 Available for adoption through Happy Paws Haven in Michigan. https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HPH/Dog 🐾 Apply to adopt Odie and Marley together and give this inseparable father-and-daughter duo the forever they deserve! ❤️ Two Golden Retrievers.

She’s affectionate, resilient, and hasn’t let what she’s been through take away her happiness. THE DETAILS Energy Level: Medium Good with Dogs: Yes — she loves to play with other dogs. Good with Cats: No — Pop Tart is very interested in cats and needs a cat-free home. Good with Kids: Yes — children ages 5+ Potty Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Unknown Ideal Home: A loving, cat-free home where Pop Tart can be part of the family and get plenty of affection and attention.

She was found wandering the streets of Detroit and was taken in by a kind resident. Unfortunately, she was later attacked by the resident’s other dogs, which is when Happy Paws Haven stepped in. She is currently looking for a foster-to-adopt home that can help her through heartworm treatment with the intention of adopting her once she is ready. Her treatment will take place at Union Lake Animal Hospital in Waterford, and her foster-to-adopt family must be willing to transport her to veterinary appointments and help her through recovery.

Story
🐾 MEET BASIL 🐾 Name: Basil Age: 6 years old Breed: Basset Hound Sex: Male Weight: Approximately 50 lbs. ABOUT BASIL Personality: Laid-back, affectionate, easygoing, and sweet. Basil is a gentle guy who enjoys the simple things in life and would love nothing more than a comfortable place to call home. Favorite Things: Sniffing around, lounging, tasty treats, being brushed, getting attention, and enjoying a comfy place to nap. Funny/Cute Quirk: Basil is a professional lounger with those classic floppy Basset ears! Give him a cozy spot, some treats, and a yard to sniff around, and he’s a happy boy. Foster’s Favorite Thing About Them: His easygoing, gentle personality. Basil has spent nearly his entire life with the same family and has so much love to give his next one. THE DETAILS Energy Level: Low Good with Dogs: Yes — although he can occasionally be dominant. Good with Cats: Yes — he generally ignores them. Good with Kids: Adult-only home needed. Potty Trained: Mostly — he is housebroken but currently goes out approximately every 4 hours and will need regular bathroom breaks while adjusting to a new routine. Crate Trained: No Ideal Home: A calm, adult-only home where Basil can enjoy plenty of attention, comfortable places to lounge, and a yard to sniff around. His adopter should be comfortable with his handling needs, as Basil has bitten during nail trims in the past. He is currently groomed at a facility that uses a protective cone and grooming hammock for nail trims. Adoption Fee: $350 MEDICAL Known Medical Issues: N/A Anything Else We Should Know: Basil is currently still living with the family he has been with since he was 4 months old. Due to changes in their work schedules, they can no longer give him the time and attention he needs. Happy Paws Haven is looking for a foster-to-adopt home so Basil can transition directly into his potential forever home rather than entering boarding. Once a foster-to-adopt home is found, the rescue can bring his veterinary care up to date and have him neutered. INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?
