Story
Need a Facebook miracle! **HOMELESS MISS PICKLES** Buckle up for her sad story! Miss Pickles was famous among the homeless community here one Sturgis. Her homeless owner loved her dearly and made sure she was always fed and they gave each other companionship. She was very loyal to him. Unfortunately, her dad passed away earlier this year. His family reached out for help and that is when we learned Miss Pickles was going to have little ones. A friend of her original owner wanted to adopt her and was even willing to raise her babies and we would find forever homes. He did an amazing job with them and they came to me at about 5 weeks old and I got to spoil these little babies until they were adopted right before Christmas. Miss Pickles has been with him the whole time but life has changed and now Miss Pickles finding herself needing a new family. She gets spayed next week and we would love for a home for her to go to. She was loyal to her original owner. She was the best momma and took her responsibility seriously. She raised great babies. Here is the kicker- SHE NEEDS TO BE THE ONLY ANIMAL in the home. She is potty trained. She does whine when you leave for the day but does settle. She has been around teenagers but no kids younger so I'm not sure how she would do. She likes toys and loves food. She is about 55 pounds, few years old and maybe a lab mix of some sort. She is super Loyal!! Let's not let her down! WE NEED A MIRACLE!

Charlie is an easy-going guy that gets along with everyone. He loves every person he's met and does well with his foster siblings of dogs and cats. He's a chunky little guy that would love an exercise partner and he does like to go outside and sniff around. He is 10 years old and currently about 18 lb but needs to lose more weight. His foster family said he loves just sitting up on the couch with them, going for short walks and taking naps. He is extremely food motivated but is currently eating diet food to help with his weight loss journey. Reach out today if you're looking for a partner in life!

Story
This handsome guy was living the Amish life and needed a soft spot to land. Tessa, of course, said yes. Had poor Kevin ever been inside? No idea. Ever been on a leash? Probably not. Been to the vet. Don't think so. But now he knows what warmth, dog beds and individual time is ❤️🐾. He loves being outside. He loves other dogs. He is also ok with cats. He likes following you around and will come when called. He has a couple things we are still working on. When meeting new people, getting into a car and a few other times he will pee. Has it gotten better? Yes. But it still happens. Hoping there is someone out there that will give Kevin a chance. ❤️🐾
