Story
Hi, my name is Coal. Someone threw me out and into oncoming traffic at 12 Mile Rd/Dequindre. I had no tags or microchip and no one ever came for me, so I guess I am unwanted. For a few days, I sat in my kennel, confused and scared. But now that I realize I will be cared for, I am happy-go-lucky. I'm looking for my furever home. I HATE my cage. I spend the whole day trying to get out. I just want to be in a home. NO KIDS 10 AND UNDER BECAUSE I LOVE FOOD TO MUCH, I SNEAK IT AT ALL COSTS.

Story
Diesel is my babyboy. He's been with us since 2016 when he was 8 weeks old. He is a purebred Blue Nose Pit and is the sweetest, most caring dog i have ever owned. He is very playful still, full of energy, he does need a fenced in backyard and by fenced in I mean Privacy fence that he can't jump. Diesel likes jumping because he likes to make friends but doesn't understand he's bigger than most dogs. At the beginning he had major separation anxiety, he can't be placed in a crate as he will get out, I call him my Hudni. He is terrified of fireworks, thunderstorms and is afraid of the dark. He looks aggressive but he is a very gentle dog and very protective.

Story
Hannah was rescued by us back in 2017 from Empty the Shelters when she was 4 years old. She is such a well mannered, maintained cuddle buddy of a dog. She loves kisses and will nip just a little if you don't allow any. She is overweight and allergic to chicken. She's not a big fan of toys but still considers herself a lap dog. She's not a big fan on baths but she's very well behaved when she gets one you just have to get her in the tub.
