Story

Hello, meet Benny. We are heartbroken to be searching for a new home for him. We rescued Benny in April 2022 when he was a puppy. He is now about 55 lbs and believed to be a Lab/Shepherd mix. Over the past year and a half, Benny has developed significant anxiety around loud noises, crowds, and busy environments. Living in a city apartment near emergency services has been very difficult for him. Most importantly, he has begun showing signs of aggression toward our children, including growling and showing teeth. We believe our active household is too stressful for him, and we must prioritize our children’s safety and Benny’s well-being. Benny would thrive in a quiet, adult-only home with a calm environment. He does well with other dogs, is fully house trained, playful, affectionate when relaxed, and very food motivated. We are committed to rehoming him directly, not surrendering him, and finding him a peaceful forever home where he can feel safe and loved.

Story

UPDATE: He's had a hernia surgery and a dental as two teeth had to be pulled. He also had his worst eye removed. Now he's actually getting around way better as that eye was remaining infected no matter how much we treated the eye. Sweet Baylen is in need of a new family who can attend to his needs. He's healthy now, however his family could no longer afford to have a pet that gets healthy food, vet care and exercise daily as they have young children to care for first and foremost. He has some vision issues but he does learn the lay out of the house quickly and he's acting as if he has vision but we know it's limited. He is a velcro dog so he stays close but is reluctant to walk in dark areas. He's such a love bug. He is such a great dog, really needs someone who is home most of the time or has another loving dog in the home to hang with. Wants to sleep with you. We are looking for these specific things for rehoming him. A home with a fenced back yard that does not use chemicals on their lawn. He loves to run around free and check out the smells, we'd like him to have a safe place to be off leash. A non-smoking home. A home with someone who is home the majority of the time. A home who can afford very healthy food, yearly vet care, dental cleanings every couple years and heartworm and flea care monthly, premium beef food. A person or persons who are very active and walk daily often and will make him a full family member. He is a young dog, so we want a younger adopter. He can live MANY more years, so we want an adopter who is younger than 62 but older than 25. We do not want to risk another rehoming during his life. He's been through so much already. We do age-appropriate adoptions always. Someone who would be able to afford to get pet insurance as the reason the family couldn't keep him is the rising costs of vet bills and appointments and care. If the previous family had insurance, they could have afforded to keep him. While he gets along with children we need a home for him without young children. He has not had the chance to be a, "come first" family member due to so many others in the home already and he's so sweet, he deserves a home with people who will focus on him for a change but he gets along GREAT with other low key dogs and cats so having another dog for him would be perfect. Or playful cat could work as well. For more information call or text me at 517 294 4514 or email your phone number to me at marlas2468@yahoo.com

Meet Daisy—a young Mastiff mix (maybe with a little Cane Corso and Southern hunting dog in her roots) who’s as fun as she is unique. Daisy came to us after her previous owner made the heartbreaking decision to surrender her in order to care for a family member battling stage 4 cancer. While she may have lost her first home, Daisy hasn’t lost her joy—this girl is all wagging tails, play bows, and puppy kisses. She’s a petite powerhouse for a Mastiff (shes still 80 pounds haha) mix, but don’t let her size fool you—Daisy is full of energy, love, and personality. She’s already shown how great she is with kids and had a blast playing with a large male dog. Her perfect match? A home with another playful pup or an active human who’s ready to run, romp, and laugh along with her. Still in her puppy phase, Daisy is eager to learn, bond, and bring light to the lucky family who gives her a forever home. Good with older kids - Just becasue of her size and playfulness Dog-friendly (especially with playful, large companions!) Young, active, and tons of fun This sweet girl is ready to put down roots.
