Story
This is a courtesy post for HSHV. This is a great dog for the right person! Hi, everyone, my name is Clover. I tend to become overwhelmed easily, and the shelter environment is, well, rather overwhelming. So I'm looking to be rescued ASAP by a patient and understanding human; someone who's prepared (with a pocketful of snacks, ideally) to help me keep my cool when I'm venturing outside my comfort zone. I'm a fun-loving dog who loves to play chase, so a home with cats wouldn't be a good fit for my exuberant personality. If you've got the skills to read both my subtle and not so subtle body language, I'd love for you to be my guiding light. Being a 1-year-old German shepherd, it goes without saying that I have an overabundance of energy as well as a brilliant mind. If you're a human with an active lifestyle, I want in on it. I'm talking hikes, fetch, puzzles. I'd even be open to some agility training once I get to know you a little better. Please teach me to channel my energy away from fear and towards fun! Since I'm a sensitive girl, I'd do best in a single family home without dogs and adults only. Remember, adoption is not just about finding a pet; it's about changing a life. Are you craving a new chapter? Me too! Take a chance on this pup, and you'll be rewarded with a transformation beyond your wildest dreams.

Story
Our pets are physically located and fostered in NC until adopted. Once adopted we can transport to you. We have a cost effective transporter that has stops in most north eastern states. She runs every 2 weeks. Please note! Don't just apply just because she has a cheap adopt fee. You must prove you can afford to adopt regardless! I find that most of the folks who apply for my reduced fee dogs back out when they realize they are still responsible for the transport fee. If this applies to you please don't waste our time!

Story
Our pets are fostered and physically located in NC until adopted. Once adopted we can deliver to your location or one of our north eastern delivery locations. We have a transporter who delivers north ever other week. Sheldon came from a local shelter. They were over full and he was in danger of being euthanized. He is a german shepherd mix. The vet said he is around 2 years old( as of 6-22-23). He is a tall lanky dog, around 65 to 70 pounds. He is a sweet boy and very affectionate. He needs a home with room to run. He is energetic and would need an adopter who can embrace it. He will make THE BEST hiking buddy ever. He likes water to. He would be best in a home where he can be the only dog. If he can't be an only dog he needs a home with a large breed submissive female. He would also do well with puppies. He is doing well with crate training and house training. He will go to his new home current on vaccines, testing, preventives, neutered and microchipped. He will receive a complete physical by our vet prior to going home. He will also be issued a certificate of Health. The adopter will get all the health records with adoption. We require a pre screen application to adopt.

Story
My name is JUSTICE!! So nice to meet you. I am a German Shepherd mix and I`m approximately 8 years old. I am a very good girl and I am very gentle and loving. I would absolutely love for someone who has time to devote to teaching me new tricks. I`m just starting to learn how to sit but I will get it in no time! I don`t really seem to have a favorite treat yet, but you never know.... you could find my perfect one!I would do best in a loving home with no young children, only because i`m a bit older and need more quiet surroundings and less noises as loud noises seem to make me nervous. I rarely bark, but I do howl sometimes when I`m lonely. A fenced in yard would work better for me, but I do seem to get along well with other dogs. If there are other pets in the home, i would love to meet them first to see if we would be a good match. The nice people at the shelter will help with our meet and greets!I would really benefit from some basic obedience training to learn how to sit, shaike and lay down, but I walk very nicely on a leash here for all my friends that take care of me. I MAY be mixed with some husky so a person experienced with both German Shepherds and Siberian Huskies would be terrific as I will need plenty of exercise to keep my mind and body healthy.My new home will not be able to have any cats, unfortunately, so the only other pets can be dogs, just like me.I will make a very good addition to your life and can`t wait to find my new best friends.If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm. To help speed up the application process, it is recommended that you complete the online application form found at the link below.https://animalcontrol.macombgov.org/AnimalControl-AdoptionApplicationMy adoption fee is $150

Story
Gypsy was abandoned with her sibling at a boarding facility by her owners. She was brought to our shelter when it was confirmed the owners were not returning. She is full of energy and would do well with an active family. Gypsy is a sweet girl who would thrive in a home where her training can continue. She has tested well with other dogs. Untested with cats. Gypsy is a 1 yr old female GSD mix who is 43 lbs. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Fence required. We transport using the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

Story
Meet Millie, she’s such a gorgeous girl! She is very smart and highly trainable. She loves attention and loves to be with her people. She has lots of energy and needs a family that also has the time and energy to fulfill her needs for exercise and mental stimulation so she can be a happy and balanced pup. She is about a year old and was to be euthanized by previous owners bc they just didn’t want her anymore (I know selfish right) She’s is wonderful. She is also learning where to go potty and not do it inside. She was kept outside in a 10x 10 kennel and was pretty thin and covered with fly bites on her ears and fleas as well. She’s recovering from that very well and loves the extra groceries she’s getting. She can and will Jump a four foot fence but has not tried a five foot fence. If you should happen to leave the yard area she may try to get out to be with you. She’s not trying to run away she is trying to get to you. She doesn’t really have separation anxiety but she does not like to be left alone in the yard. She does great in her crate/kennel at night and will hold it to potty in the morning. She loves other dogs and is pretty pushy in an obnoxious way with other dogs like she doesn’t know her manners but she is learning with our pack.. Our pack is teaching her how to play and engage properly as a dog. She is a middle of the pack/ front of the pack type of dog. She’s not too confident that she is dominant and she is not shy and timid or fearful. She can be a tad shy at first with people but she’s pretty confident with other dogs. meet but warms up within minutes. Located East TN, out of state welcomed transport available to your area and is included on the adoption fee listed here in Adopt a pet. We use rescue riders for our pet transports because they have been great with our babies. Apply at petpath.org
