Story
Meet Hubert! This five-year-old gentleman is a social, fun-loving guy who enjoys spending time with people and showing off his skills. Hubert is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccines.Hubert knows “sit,” “down,” and “shake” with both paws! He loves treats and toys, especially tennis balls and a good game of tug with a rope toy. He enjoys chest scratches and leaning in for affection, though the shelter environment can make him a little nervous at times. Hubert may occasionally jump up to get a better look at what’s going on, so continued training will help him keep all four paws on the floor. We recommend that young children meet him before adoption.Hubert has met several dogs and has enjoyed playful interactions with dogs who communicate well with him. Sometimes, he can be a little too enthusiastic or have trouble reading another dog’s signals. A dog introduction is recommended, and slow introductions with a plan to separate the dogs when needed will be important if he’ll have a canine roommate.Hubert can also be uncomfortable with certain types of handling, especially during veterinary exams. A patient approach, positive reinforcement, and a veterinarian who uses fear-free handling techniques can help him feel more comfortable.If you’re looking for a playful companion who knows a few tricks and loves a good game of fetch or tug, Hubert could be your guy! With understanding and continued guidance, he’s ready to find a home where he can feel safe, have fun, and be himself. Come visit Hubert here at the shelter or reach out for more information!adoptions@adoptlansing.org or 517-626-6060

Story
Meet Bahugo! This 1-year-old guy is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. Bahugo can be shy and overwhelmed in new situations, but with a little patience, he’s starting to show his sweet side! He enjoys treats and pets once he feels comfortable and may even scoot closer when you stop petting him. He does best outside, so a yard visit is a great way to get to know him!Bahugo will need a patient family willing to give him time to settle into his new home and build confidence at his own pace. He can be nervous about being picked up, so letting him move around on his own will help him feel safe. We recommend older kids, and all family members should meet him before adoption. Younger children are required to meet him to make sure everyone is comfortable.Bahugo has enjoyed playing chase and running through agility tunnels with another dog, but he can be unsure around some dogs, especially other intact males. Slow introductions and separate feeding spaces will be important if there are other dogs in the home. With the right match, he may enjoy having a canine companion! Bahugo also loves to run, so a secure fenced yard or leash walks and extra care around open doors are a must.Bahugo may need a little extra time to feel at home, but with kindness, patience, and plenty of tasty treats, this sweet boy can continue to build confidence and discover how wonderful life can be with a family of his own. If Bahugo sounds like he might be a good fit, come visit him at the shelter today or reach out for more information.adoptions@adoptlansing.org or 517-626-6060

Story
Meet May! This sweet 1.5-year-old girl is a gentle soul who just needs a little time to feel comfortable in new situations. Although the shelter environment has been a bit overwhelming, May has shown herself to be friendly with people, happily staying nearby for pets and accepting tasty treats. She knows `sit` and `down` and seems to enjoy taking in her surroundings at her own pace.May has lived with another dog and has experience playing nicely with other dogs while boarding. She`s polite when meeting new canine friends and is happy to say hello before wandering off to explore on her own. She may do well with another dog with a gradual introduction. May has also been housetrained and is accustomed to spending some time in a crate when left alone.May will do best with a patient family who can provide a calm, predictable environment while she settles in and builds confidence. She`s recommended for a home with older children, as the activity and unpredictability of younger kids may be overwhelming for her. She can also find handling and vet visits stressful, so a gentle, low-stress approach and positive reinforcement will be important. With a little understanding and plenty of encouragement, May has so much potential to blossom into a wonderful companion!May is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccines. Come meet May here at the shelter or reach out for more information. adoptions@adoptlansing.org or 517-626-6060

Story
Meet Acer!Acer is a 6-month-old puppy who is still learning that the world can be a safe place. She can be nervous in new situations and will need a patient family willing to give her time to settle in and build trust. Acer seems to find confidence around other dogs and enjoyed playing with a canine friend after warming up. She’ll benefit from slow introductions, gentle encouragement, and plenty of opportunities to explore at her own pace. Since she’s still young, she’ll also need help learning her housetraining routine. Acer may need multiple visits to feel comfortable with potential adopters, but with time, patience, and love, she has the opportunity to blossom.Acer is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Come meet Acer here at the shelter or reach out for more information! adoptions@adoptlansing.org or 517-626-6060
