Story
My name is Duke, and I am a 5‑year‑old German Shepherd with a big heart, a sharp mind, and a very waggy tail. At my age, I am a calm, mature dog who still loves to play and explore, but I’m past the wild puppy stage and ready to focus on being someone’s loyal best friend. I am intelligent, confident, and steady, and that’s exactly how I behave, even when things around me are noisy or new. I listen carefully when humans talk, tilting my head, because I understand more than most people think and I want to do the right thing for them. I’m protective but gentle, the kind of dog who will bark to let you know someone is at the door, then relax when you tell me it’s okay. Because my breed is so trainable and eager to learn, I pick up new commands quickly and enjoy using my brain as much as my paws. I would love a family who understands that German Shepherds need both exercise and mental challenges, like learning tricks, sniffing games, or simple jobs around the house.

Story
Hi my name is Condor, I am a sweet and playful boy looking for my forever family! I can be nervous when meeting new people, but with some time and patience I show my playful and silly side! I am very clever and continue to grow with positive reinforcement training methods; I would love to show you how smart I am. I can sometimes get overwhelmed by small children and would do best in a home without them. I will also need a home without birds or small mammals and likely without cats due to my prey drive. I would love a home who has experience with dogs like me and are comfortable with training to reduce bad manners and reactivity. With a proper foundation and love, I will be a fantastic dog! Please come meet me if I could be the handsome pooch for you.

Story
Hiya! I`m Jade, a playful but shy pooch looking for a patient home to settle in to! Life can be scary for a nervous lady like me. New dogs, people, places, and situations all make me a bit weary. I would love to find a family who can help reduce my stress and help me feel more comfortable with new and unknown situations. I can be good with other dogs, but they can sometimes be too much for me, I will need to meet any potential dog siblings before going home. I will also need a home without children under 12 and without small animals like cats and rabbits. Once I feel comfortable in my new home, you will start to see the playful side of me that is full of life and fun! Meet me today if I sound like a good match for your home!

Story
Meet Rex 🐶💙—a resilient, affectionate boy with a heart as big as his incredible spirit! Rex was born with congenital megaesophagus, which means he needs to be fed upright in a Bailey chair so his food can safely reach his stomach. He does great with this routine and thrives on a high-quality, nutrient-dense diet, currently The Farmer’s Dog, which has been working wonderfully for him. Rex will need lifelong management, including special feeding routines, possible medications, and regular veterinary checkups to help him feel his best. While this condition may shorten his lifespan, Rex doesn’t let that dim his joy—he’s a loving, social dog who adores spending time with people, soaking up attention, and greeting each day with enthusiasm. Rex is looking for a dedicated adopter who can continue his care and give him the warm, supportive home he truly deserves 🏡❤️ ✨ Bailey chair will be sent home when adopted ✨ - Around 3 years old - Currently just under 75lbs - Good with kids, prefers a slow introduction to dogs and cats. - Adoption fee: $350 To inquire about this dog, please email dogs@adoptapetfenton.com. Include information about your family and pets, what you are looking for in a canine companion, how you plan to exercise and train this dog, and why this specific dog seems like a good fit for your family. Those who provide the previous information will be considered first for this canine. Please do NOT call our center. This will help us match you and the animal the best we can. We usually respond via email within 24-48 hours; please check your spam folder if you don't hear from us. Dog adoption fees include spay/neuter, rabies vaccine (if age-appropriate), distemper/parvo combination vaccine, leptospirosis vaccine (if age-appropriate), bordetella vaccine, deworming, heartworm test (if age appropriate), heartworm preventative, flea preventative, a dental cleaning (if necessary), and a microchip.

Story
Contact 248-870-9429 ( text only ) I am looking to responsibly rehome my two-year-old AKC-registered German Shepherd due to an upcoming military move that unfortunately will not allow me to bring her along. She is fully up to date on all vaccinations, potty-trained, and has been raised in a home environment. She has lived with two male dogs and does well with them. She has never been around cats, so a slow and supervised introduction would be recommended if there are cats in the home. While she may be a little shy or nervous at first, she warms up quickly once she feels comfortable. She is incredibly sweet, loyal, and affectionate. She knows basic commands and is one of my most obedient dogs. As with all working breeds, she will thrive with continued training, structure, and regular activity. She would do best in a home that understands the German Shepherd breed and can provide consistency, patience, and engagement.
