Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Winston Winston is a one-of-a-kind pup who earned the nickname "The Grasshopper" because his long legs and bouncy energy make him hop around when he's being playful! He's a Lab/Coonhound mix, roughly 14-16 months old, and about 60 pounds of pure love and silliness. He absolutely adores children and gets along well with other dogs. When it comes to cats, he's not aggressive, but he definitely wants to play with them, so he will need some dedicated "leave it" training to keep the peace. One of Winston's standout qualities is that he's fully house and crate trained, and he genuinely loves his crate. He happily retreats to his "place" when told to do so, at night and whenever we leave the house. Winston is an incredibly loyal companion who just wants to be near his people. He's got plenty of energy for adventures and playtime, but he's also happy to snuggle up and chew on his favorite bone during downtime. He's a beautiful balance of go-go-go and cozy couch companion. Now, he's still a teenager, so he's got some things we're actively working on. Think of Winston as a giant puppy who's still learning life's finer manners. He's very food-motivated, which is fantastic for training, but it also means he's a bit of a counter surfer when you're not looking!  He gets visibly excited when guests arrive, and while his heart is in the right place, he's working on calming greetings rather than full-body enthusiasm. He's also learning how to politely walk on a leash. He pulls and barks when he spots squirrels or other dogs because he's just so excited to say hi! This reactivity is purely out of excitement, not fear or aggression.  He's made tremendous progress and is eager to keep improving with consistent, positive-reinforcement training. Overall, his biggest ongoing lesson is learning boundaries and how to calm down even when something exciting is within reach. Whether it's a treat, a toy, or an open door, Winston is discovering that impulse control is a skill, and with the right forever home he will make such strides with this.  With consistent, positive-reinforcement training, this dog has endless potential. Winston would thrive in an active, patient household that's ready to invest in his training and help him become the best boy he can be. If you're looking for a goofy, devoted, big-hearted companion who will love your whole family with everything he's got, Winston is waiting for you.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All animal breeds and ages are a best estimate August 4, 2026, 9:16 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Buddy! Buddy is a sweet little agent of chaos looking for his forever home! He's a true mixed breed with adorable hound ears and a personality that's larger than life. Buddy is confident, curious, and always ready for his next adventure. The basics: ✅ Crate trained ✅ Food motivated and eager to learn Working on potty training Loves walks but is still learning not to pull (birds are very exciting!) Buddy currently lives with four dogs, a cat, and two young children. He's done well with both, but because he's an active puppy who is still a little mouthy, we'd recommend a home with children ages 7 and up. Buddy needs an active family that will keep him mentally and physically engaged. He's smart and athletic, making him a great future hiking, adventure, or running partner. Once he's had a chance to burn off his energy, he's happiest curled up in your lap for cuddles. He'll thrive with an experienced owner who will provide structure, consistency, and continued training. Buddy does have a prey drive outdoors, so he'll chase birds and squirrels, but he should do well with cats in the home when introduced properly. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate pup with equal parts energy and snuggles, Buddy just might be your perfect match. Interested in meeting Buddy?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Mack Mack is a 2-year-old Bluetick Coonhound looking for his forever home. Despite not having the most stable start to life and being bounced around between a couple of homes, Mack hasn’t let it dim his spirit. He’s a sweet, affectionate boy just waiting for the right person to give him the love and stability he deserves. Mack is great with other dogs and is currently living with 3 other coonhounds in his foster home. He does need a home without children, and he would do best with someone who understands hounds and is willing to give him patience, consistency, and time to settle in. This handsome guy LOVES going for walks and will absolutely let you know when he spots deer or other critters He’s proud of his beautiful hound voice, so a house would likely be a better fit for him than an apartment. Mack is crate trained and likes sleeping in his crate with his blanket. He’s also a big fan of attention — he’ll lean right into you for pets or flop over for belly rubs whenever he gets the chance. Mack may have a few quirks that make him a little harder to place, but underneath it all he’s a loving, loyal dog who simply needs his special person. If you’re hound-savvy and looking for a companion with lots of personality and love to give, Mack could be your perfect match ❤️  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All animal breeds and ages are a best estimate August 4, 2026, 9:16 pm

Story
Fenced yard required Fostered near Britton, MI https://www.collierescue.org/dogs/2054 Murray is a smart, energetic, and affectionate young Collie with a big personality and love for his people. He enjoys treats, toys, and a good game of fetch, and he’s always eager to learn, making him a rewarding match for an active home that can offer structure, playtime, and continued guidance as he grows into the wonderful companion he is meant to be. This handsome boy is fully housebroken, comfortable in a crate, and settles well when left alone. He has learned not to destroy his toys, is improving with waiting at doors, and comes when called. Murray is highly intelligent and loves to learn—he even figured out how to let himself back inside by using a lever-style doorknob! Murray thrives on attention and affection. He loves to be part of whatever his family is doing. One of his favorite things is greeting his foster mom with morning snuggles. He responds well to treats, chews, toys, and calm, consistent routines. He navigates stairs with ease and has done well with grooming after overcoming his initial fear of the high-velocity dryer. Murray gets along well with other dogs and cats. He enjoys canine companionship but is still learning appropriate play manners and can be a bit exuberant at times. A family willing to provide supervision, structure, and continued guidance will help him continue making great progress. Because Murray can be sensitive to certain sights and sounds outside of the fence, he would do best in a quieter environment with minimal outside distractions. A dog savvy, active home with a securely fenced yard, clear expectations, and plenty of physical and mental enrichment will be ideal for this bright young Collie. Murray is a happy, affectionate Collie who is ready to share his heart with a family of his own. With continued guidance, patience, and love, he will grow into a wonderful companion and a loyal best friend for years to come.

Blue is eight months old, she’s a very playful, energetic puppy and needs some space to run. A family with a bigger backyard would be ideal, she’s very nice and good with kids. She can be shy at times. She almost never barks. She’s a good dog. I just worked too much to keep her active.

Story
Currently has fleas due to strays outside and with his fur is very hard to get off. Not up to date on rabies shots. Slightly matted fur in the back and will need some groomings. Overall no health issues known besides the flea infestation. Needs to warm up to new people but specifically men because he was mistreated by one and witnessed the man get very violent with his previous owner. Good around kids. Terrified of fireworks and thunderstorms partly due to the traumatic experience with the previous owner being on the fourth of july. Not crate trained.
