Story

Meet Reba! This sweet girl was unfortunately dealt a tough start to life where she was chained in the backyard and neglected to a point where her collar had to be surgically removed from her neck. The sweet girl has made incredible strides in her life since then and we know the right family will leave all her bad memories in the past and fill up her future with only love. We’ve made up a list for what this special girl would like in a forever home: -An active home with lots of walks and time to play ball. -I am crate trained but it’s not my favorite place so I would love to sleep in bed and cuddle on the couch with you. -Older kids would be best since I can be a little hyper I might knock a little one down. -She is open to having a doggy sibling but no cats or birds If interested in applying for Reba, please fill out an application on our website. She can’t wait to meet you!

Graham

Pit Bull Terrier German Shepherd Dog

Male, 1 yr 2 mos

Story

Graham here! 🐾🐶🤎 Graham is a gentle soul with the sweetest heart. This handsome boy has been through more than we’ll ever fully know, and while the world can still feel a little scary to him, he is learning every day that kindness exists! Graham may be shy at first. New places, loud noises, and unfamiliar faces can make him nervous. But give him a little time, a calm voice, and a patient heart, and you’ll see his beautiful personality start to shine. Once he feels safe, he leans in for cuddles and looks at you like you’re his whole world. He would do best in a quiet home with a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. A predictable routine and a cozy spot to call his own will help him blossom. Watching a scared dog gain confidence is one of the most rewarding journeys—and Graham is so worth it. If you believe that love is built on patience, gentleness, and small victories, Graham might just be your perfect match. He doesn’t need a perfect home—just a safe one. If you are interested in adopting Graham or any of our current fosters please visit our website to complete an application.

Peaches

Border Collie

Female, Young

Lincoln Park, MI

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Peaches was born October 16th 2025 on a farm that we rescued her from. She is a very sweet and loving girl who just wants to play fetch and run around and doesn’t bark a lot ! She would fit best with someone who is attentive who can get her zoomies out and needs a best friend! She wants to be by your side most of the time and she’s super intelligent and easy to train! She would be better with older kids because of how much she wants to play which is why we are rehoming her as we have a small child we aren’t able to give her the attention and time she needs. Is this the best friend you have been looking for?

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

She’s a great girl!! She’s about 3 years old. She is still very much puppy and too hyper for a house with a toddler. Unfortunately we don’t have the time to devote to training. She is great with our other dog and loves all dogs, always wants to make new friends. She is good with our female cat but not the male cat. She will lick your face off. She doesn’t know she isn’t a lap dog! She wouldn’t intentionally hurt anyone, she just gets very excited and has zero slow when she goes after something she wants. For that reason not good with infants and toddlers. She knows sit, sometimes stay, lay. She goes in the car wonderfully. Not great on a leash, she wants to explore everything. She has a few extra pounds because she has the man of the house trained for her snacks and she thinks she is the toddlers personal vacuum cleaner. Please give her a good home. This isn’t easy but we love her enough to not have her in another room all the time.
