Story
You will hit the jackpot with Callie! From her foster mom: If your life sounds anything like mine… Kids. Sports. Work. Activities. Chaos. More chaos. And somehow it’s already bedtime. 😂 You LOVE dogs, but you also need a dog who doesn’t come with a second full-time job. ENTER CALLIE. 🐾❤️ If you’re looking for the PERFECT dog, I’m pretty sure we found her. And yes, she’s 11 years old… but someone forgot to tell Callie. 😂 She certainly doesn’t act like it! Callie has the resume of a dog who has her life together: ✔️ Potty trained — because nobody has time for surprises ✔️ Crate trained — although she really doesn’t need one ✔️ Kid friendly — she gets the chaos ✔️ Dog friendly — she has friends ✔️ Calm — no “zoomies at 2 a.m.” nonsense ✔️ THE BEST manners — seriously, she’s showing the rest of us how it’s done ✔️ Happy, happy, HAPPY — her tail apparently has its own workout routine ✔️ 11 years young — with plenty of love, personality, and happiness left to give Basically, Callie is the dog equivalent of finding a $20 bill in your pocket. 🎉 She’s sweet, easy, happy, well-mannered, and ready to be someone’s forever girl. So if you’ve been thinking, “I’d love a dog, but I just don’t have time for a high-maintenance one…” Callie would like to introduce herself. 🐶❤️ She’s done the puppy phase, skipped the teenage rebellion, and arrived fully assembled. 😂 Now she just needs her forever family. Contact Pepper's Hope Dog Rescue to fill out an application.

Story
❗❗ Foster or Adopter needed ASAP❗❗ All supplies provided for fostering! No Adoption fee with an approved application! PLEASE SHARE!!!! If you are even considering it please reach out! Currently at St Joseph County Animal Control . 💚AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION💚 DOCKET# 245-26 This Senior Boxer/ Pit Mix is Bogart. He is 8 years or older and still intact. He is housebroken, crate trained and leash trained. He loves to snuggle up next to you, relaxing on his bed while chewing on his bone. Don’t let the age fool you because he still has some spunkiness to him. Because if you throw a tennis ball he’ll run after it and then go find a spot in the yard to lay down. Then he’ll roll around with the ball in his mouth. He is treat and food motivated. ❣️He is a little hard of hearing, his back end area is a little wobbly and he has some skin issues. But he DOESN’T let that stop him. ** Unsure how he is around children and cats. ** He’s been fine around the dogs here but we still REQUIRE a Meet-N-Greet to make sure. So if you are interested in adopting this Handsome Senior Boy please stop by and ask to meet him. Once you meet him you’ll fall in love with him . Please help me help him! I need a foster or adopter! He did great meeting two dogs when I met him. He just wanted to hump the male shepherd.

Story
**SPECIAL NEEDS** Sunny is the sweetest but she is pretty much deaf. But look on the bright side! She doesn't care about the vacuum, thunderstorms, fireworks, ect! Even if her eyes do not look normal she still gets around great! She doesn't bump into things and doesn't seem to have any issue. She LOVES to cuddle. She just wants attention. She gets along with dogs, cats and I am guessing kids, too. She is 5 years old and 12 pounds now. Unfortunately, she did not have the best life up until now. She was owned by an elderly couple and they were not able to care for her grooming needs so she had to be shaved all the way down. They were also not letting her and the other dogs outside so we are starting on potty training. She does really does love chewing on bones but has not played with toys so far. She will need a fenced in yard or a home where she can't just accidently escape outside as she can't hear you to call her back. Located in Sturgis Mi

Story
Welcome Ruffles! He is somewhere between 5 and 16 years old. Weird I know. He was a "stray" from St Joseph County Animal Control and then the owner came forward and said he is 16 years old and never was seen by a vet. He teeth are in great shape if that is actually the truth 🤷 So far he has been good with the other dogs, very happy and needs neutered 🫣😬. His tail has wagged, and wagged and wagged. He has been an easy going guy and enjoys sitting next to you. Reach out today about him ❤️. Located in Sturgis, Mi.

Story
Welcome Pablo! He came to us after his owner,unfortunately, had to go into assisted living. The whole family is devastated that they had to be surrendered but knew it was what was best for him. Pablo is 12 years old and loves to be held. Little baby syndrome activated! He is good with dogs, could care less about my cats and just likes being with his people. He slept through the night well and would love a family that would tuck him in under the blanket at night. Don't let his age fool you! He still gets around great and loves sniffing every inch outside. Car rides are not the top of his list of favorites but he does settle down for long road trips on the expressway. He does decent walking on leash. He had a dental and we are taking applications now. He is now is another foster home and has transitioned well to that home. He is potty trained and likes smelling everything outside. He has such a good personality and will make someone very happy. ** No apartments as he will bark when you are gone. ** No kids under 10. He will steal food and he will not give it back.
