Story
Meet Agave – A Sweet Survivor with a Soul Made of Gold Thrown from a moving vehicle and left broken on the expressway, Agave’s story could have ended in heartbreak. But this extraordinary girl chose to keep going. With a fractured pelvis, a fractured front leg, and unimaginable pain, she still looked to humans with hope. And today? She’s walking again. She’s healing. She’s beginning to trust that love won’t always hurt. Agave is as sweet as her name suggests—gentle, affectionate, and endlessly resilient. She’s the kind of dog who leans in for comfort, whose eyes speak volumes, and whose quiet strength will move you to tears. There’s something about her presence that makes you pause, breathe deeper, and feel lucky just to be near her. She’s made incredible progress through physical therapy and is blossoming into a playful, loving companion. She loves her walks and trots proudly at your side, soaking up every scent and every moment. She’ll gently chase after a ball and light up when she catches it—never too rowdy, always just happy to be included. Car rides are her jam. She gazes out the window, ears in the wind, as if she’s remembering how far she’s come. Agave gets along beautifully with most other dogs and has a soft spot for calm, structured homes. She’s mostly housebroken and does her best to communicate when she needs to go out. She knows basic commands, offers a paw when asked, and wants nothing more than to make her people proud. After everything she’s endured, Agave deserves a peaceful, predictable place to continue healing—ideally with women or older children who will give her the space and patience to feel safe. Loud, fast movements still worry her, especially from men, but she’s learning that love can be quiet, steady, and safe. Agave has survived the unthinkable, and yet she remains sweet, soft, and so full of love. Her story didn’t end on that expressway. It’s just beginning—and you could be the one to help her write the next chapter. Let Agave show you what it means to be brave. Let her remind you that sweetness can survive anything. Apply to foster or adopt and give this beautiful soul the home she’s always deserved. Adoption is $275, which includes spay/neuter at our vet, vaccines, dewormer, microchip, and clean bill of health. Although we work to potty train all of our dogs, we cannot guarantee full house training before adoption. Regression is a normal part of transitioning to a new home.

Story
Brody had a rough start to life, I don't think he was given much time or handled kindly by his first owner - because of this he didn't know how great people can be, but he has worked very hard to build relationships and dog skills. He's immaculate in his kennel, no messes, loves enrichment - but will obliterate pillows, orthopedic beds and stuffies with exuberant glee 😬😬😬. So....I suggest we don't give him those. I'd say he's "mostly" good for walks - once you get in the flow, and he WORKS hard for that food. He loves people, loves to be petted, and will lay by your feet all day. Brody just wants to be by your side because he loves attention now that he trusts people and is a happy fellow. He will require a fenced yard, children over 13, no cats. If you want a loyal and lovable companion Brody is the perfect dog to meet! Fosters and adopters must live within an hour of metro Detroit. Birthdate 1-29-17

We adopted Bella when she was a tiny pup. She is now eight months old. My grandson has allergies that caused us to leave her outside a lot. The neighbors complain and I think it would be best for her to find a nice home. The $300 fee is simply to cover the shots and chip. Bella comes with a free harness and toys. I also have a crate available if needed.

Story
I am looking for a loving home for my two dogs, Guinness and Nash who are black 1/2 lab / 1/2 golden retrievers, due to an upcoming move that does not allow dogs in my new home. They will be three years old on 1/21/2026 and it is my hope to keep them together as that's all they have ever known and play and entertain each other and are best friends. Both Guinness and Nash have never shown any aggression to anyone, and are great with other dogs at the dog park, kids of any age, strangers or cats (they have lived with cats before - never any problems). They love everyone they come into contact with, and seek out enjoy human touch and interaction for petting, snuggling and certainly playing. Both dogs are crate trained and house trained, and do not have any special dietary restrictions. They enjoy running, playing, fetch, swimming, lounging and attention from each other, other dogs, and humans. They are great pets in every way.

Story
Hudson is a 5 month old (born 8/4/25) pure bread black lab, 60 pounds already. We got him from a breeder in September and he’s been the sweetest boy ever since. He’s fully house trained, knows sit, paw and is mostly to lay down. He loves the outdoors, his chew toys and his stuffys. He has been raised so far with a very handsy 4 year old and a 2 year old, he’s very gentle and tolerant with both kids. He also goes to doggy daycare once a week to socialize with other dogs and loves playing with other dogs! He has never lived with another fur friend though so that might require a trial period. We do believe he has a chicken allergy so please be aware of that limitation on treats and food. Our son is special needs and requires a lot of attention, unfortunately we think it’s best for him to be in a pet free home. Hudson is an amazing dog. * It says that it’s required to get him fixed 30 days after adoption, he is not old enough, I can’t get that taken down*
