Dutch

German Shepherd Dog

Male, 5 yrs 6 mos

Gwinn, MI

Size

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

Story

Dutch is a striking, neutered male German Shepherd with the classic shepherd presence — attentive, intelligent, and deeply devoted to his people.He bonds strongly with his family and takes that connection seriously. Dutch is both protective and friendly, the kind of dog who wants to be near his people and share in their daily life. Whether it’s a long hike, a car ride, a game of fetch, or relaxing on his dog bed after a full day, Dutch is happiest when he’s included.He walks well on leash, is kennel trained, and enjoys squeaky toys, tennis balls, pig ears, and interactive play. He’s been around other dogs and may enjoy canine companionship, though introductions should be thoughtful as he can be enthusiastic and direct when meeting.Dutch is a loving boy who thrives with structure and clear communication. Because he can be sensitive with certain handling — especially around his hips — we recommend a home with respectful older children (approximately 12–14+) and a family comfortable reading dog body language and providing consistency.He does have some hip discomfort and takes a joint supplement with fish oil to help keep him comfortable.Dutch is emotionally aware, deeply loyal, and happiest when he feels safe and understood. In the right home, he will be a steady, devoted companion and true partner.If you think Dutch may be the right fit, we encourage you to bring your family — and any dogs in the home — to meet him and see if it feels right for everyone.

Story

Buffalo has come a long way or the past year. I can`t even imagine what his life was like before he was rescued. He was found tied up outside not being fed. His first few days at UPAWS his bowel movements were sand. He has put on about 30lbs. He lived with two dogs while with me. They have passed. We have been together 1 year. He is food driven , but not food aggressive. I use treats as a training tool meeting dogs. He has been perfect in the house. Buffalo is a INDOOR dog. He does not counter surf or dig in the trash or yard.. He does not get on the furniture or beds. He knows sit and lie down. He has free roam of house. I have never had to try a kennel. He is extremely affectionate towards people and seeks affection. He walks well on a leash. He is reactive to some dogs when meeting. He does eventually warm up to some. Its something we are working on. Buffalo has a good recall off lead. Needs to be on lead when other dogs are around. Once he knows a dog he does well. This is a difficult decision. I love Buffalo, he is my best friend. I have serious health issues and need to find him a loving home that will spoil him and give him a loving home he so much deserves ? Buffalo has a vet appointment on 12/29/25 for his yearly check up/vacancies.**** Buffalo is not at Upaws*****If you are interested in Buffalo please contact:MarkPhone number: 906-440-2726Email: treadomt@gmail.com

Story

About Mackenzie (Mac)Mackenzie — or Mac, as many people lovingly call him — is a 5-year-old German Shepherd with a big body and an even bigger heart.He’s active, he’s affectionate, and he truly loves being with his people. This is a dog who doesn’t just want a home — he wants connection. He wants to be near you, part of your day, included in your routine. If you’re looking for a loyal buddy who will happily follow you from room to room and then curl up beside you at night, Mac is your guy.He’s a cuddler. A real one.His former person described him as a very nice, friendly, lovable boy — and that’s exactly how we see him too. He knows sit, lay down, and paw, and he enjoys plush toys, squeaky toys, and rope toys. He also really enjoys other dogs and would likely appreciate dog social time or even a canine companion.Mac is a big, active dog, so a home with respectful older kids would probably be the best fit for him. He does take a simple daily medication to help him feel his best, so having an established veterinarian will help keep him on track.What Mac truly needs is a home where someone is around more often. He thrives on attention and closeness. He is not a dog who wants to be on the sidelines — he wants to belong.He’s a good boy. A really good boy.If you think Mac could be the right match, we encourage you to bring your whole family — including any dogs in the home — to meet him and see if it feels right for everyone.

Story

Bubbles is a one-year-old, medium-sized mixed breed with the sweetest little legs and a soft, tender spirit. She came to us as a lost stray and is now quietly hoping for a loving family of her very own. There is a softness about Bubbles that you feel right away.Bubbles is a shy, bashful girl who appears gentle in nature. The world can still feel a little big to her, and new things may seem overwhelming at first. But when she begins to feel safe, you see her true self — the way she leans in for reassurance, the tiny tail wag, the quiet trust slowly beginning to grow. You can see how much she wants to feel safe and understood.She seems to find comfort with kind, patient people and blossoms gently when given time and calm reassurance. Sometimes she simply wants to be close to someone who feels safe.Bubbles has shown a sweet interest in other dogs, often becoming a little braver when a calm canine friend is nearby. A peaceful environment and thoughtful introductions will help her continue to build confidence.Because she is sensitive and bashful, Bubbles would likely do best in a quieter home with patient, understanding people and calmer children who can offer her the gentle kindness she needs to feel secure.Bubbles is not loud or demanding — she is soft, observant, and quietly loving. Little moments of bravery are already starting to shine through. With patience, kindness, and a loving heart beside her, she has the potential to blossom into a deeply devoted companion.She doesn’t need perfection — just patience, kindness, and someone who will love her gently. If you think Bubbles might be the right match, we encourage you to bring your family — and any dogs in the home — to meet her and see if it feels right for everyone.

Story

* LIZZIE IS NOT AT UPAWS *Lizzie Lou is a sweet girl that loves to give kisses and “hugs”. She does well at our family camp off lead and loves to run with her other doggo friends. Her favorite toys are power chewer toys and loves turkey slices and string cheese! She can swim but prefers to just wade and lick up the water.She prefers to be the only dog around in her own home. Our old man dog is having a hard time keeping up with her desire to play. Cats are things to chase for Lizzie Lou so most likely a home with no cats or cats that don’t care Lizzie is around. Little kids might get knocked down from all her love she gives.Lizzie has been recently spayed and is up to date or her shots.We take Lizzie on daily walks to help with getting the zoomies out. If she has a toy to chew on, she’s the happiest girl around. Sometimes she’s possessive of those toys and her food. We’ve worked with her as best as we can but sometimes she will let out a growl if you try and take away a toy. We redirect with a treat and then can take away the toy.She is a sweet girl that just needs a different environment to blossom which I know with the right family, she will.If interested please contact Chelsea at 906-202-9792 or chelsea.prunick@icloud.com!
