Story
J Dilla A18755364 lb. neutered male, approx 10 months old -This sweet puppy is still figuring out the big, wide world! He cautiously explored every inch of the yard, taking in all the new sights, sounds, and smells around him. He seems like a youngster who simply hasn’t had a lot of experiences yet and will need someone willing to show him the ropes at his own pace.-He walks pretty nicely at times, with some pulling here and there as he continues learning his leash skills.-Food is definitely the way to his heart! He’s very treat motivated, takes snacks gently, and was already catching on to “sit.” He’s a smart little guy who seems eager to learn when he understands what’s being asked of him.-Inside, a toy caught his attention and he briefly picked up a stuffie. He doesn’t quite seem to know how to play yet, but I have a feeling that’s something he’ll figure out with time and a little encouragement.-As he became more comfortable with me, I got to see more of his sweet personality. He eventually crawled right between my legs for pets, and before long, those little kisses started coming!-He’s a timid youngster who just needs someone patient and kind who will let him go at his own pace. Give him the time and gentle guidance he needs, and this little guy has so much room to grow in confidence and discover what being a puppy is all about.-Will need some puppy training. Please keep that in mind if you want a puppy. They require time and patience to be the best that they can be!-Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids•Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt •Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. •Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in. •There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption. •To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering. **And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.** •The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-5:30, except for Wednesday when we open at 11:30**We ask that if you’re looking to adopt, you arrive before 5:00 to be able to have enough time to meet the dog. **1431 E Ferry St. Detroit

Story
Rags is a very friendly and chill Rottie mix who was luckily rescued by his foster. He was found walking down a median on a busy road in Detroit. Rags currently lives with several other dogs and is very loving and sweet. It appeared he was not very well taken care of when found. He has an overbite which was probably congenital that causes his tongue to stick out. He had heartworm disease when we first got him but he was treated and is now healthy and heartworm negative. Rags is about 75 pounds and estimated to be about 11 years old. Rags has a good personality and would love to finally find a wonderful new family to love and care for him. This fellow definitely deserves it. Please consider making him a new addition to your home or companion for another friendly dog.

Story
Currently this sweet baby is with our rescue, The Artemis Project, in Arkansas. We DO, however, transport monthly to the metro Detroit area of MI. Because we’re able to transport, we ARE able to accept adoption applications directly from residents of MI. Why do we transport? Because animal overpopulation is severe in our region, and stray and unwanted dogs have very little chance of finding a home here. These babies are, however, at a high risk of being neglected, abused, abandoned, euthanized or even shot (it’s “the way things are done” for some people down here). YOU are truly one of the only safe and happy endings for the lucky ones we are able to rescue. Upon approval of your adoption application, we will then transport your new furbaby to you in the metro Detroit area for just a small travel expense fee of $50 in addition to the adoption fee. MICHIGAN RESIDENTS—>PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW TO FILL OUT THE ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://new.shelterluv.com/form/other/TAP/2450-michigan-adoption Before we can change your new furbaby’s status from "adoptable" to "adoption pending," the $50 transport fee must be paid to secure the adoption. At that time, we will stop accepting applications. The entire adoption fee must be paid prior to the transport in order to ensure your new baby has a spot on the transport. Thank you SO MUCH for giving a homeless Arkansas pup a chance at a real life with a family of their very own!

Story
I got Diamond two years ago from a pet store. Since she came, we have been a small family of 3. She has brought so much joy to my daughter. She is very active and playful. Looking to rehome her to a good loving home, who have the time to keep up with her activeness. The home who can be around her often.

Story
Meet Letty — a 6-year-old Doberman with a gentle heart, soulful eyes, and a spirit that’s ready to shine again. Letty has been through a lot of change lately, but she’s handled it all with quiet grace. She’s calm, affectionate, and happiest when she’s close to her people — the kind of dog who leans in for love and gives it right back tenfold. Letty is fully house trained, easy to have around, and has shown nothing but sweetness toward other animals. She’s not destructive, doesn’t bark excessively, and simply wants to be part of a family again. Her hips are a little tender, so she’d do best in a home without many stairs, where she can rest comfortably and move at her own pace. About Letty: - 6 years old, around 74 lbs - Gentle, loyal, and affectionate - House trained and well-behaved - Good with other animals - Calm and loving temperament - Would thrive in a home with minimal stairs Letty is the definition of a good dog — steady, kind, and full of quiet love. She’s ready to find the soft landing she deserves and the people who will make her feel safe, comfortable, and cherished every day. 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
Citrus was living alone in an abandoned house with no doors or windows. We trapped her, and she got very upset. Citrus was growling for many many days, and did not allow any handling. She finally came around to trust us, and is now a loving sweetheart. Citrus wants an understanding foster-to-adopt home, who wants to baby her. She is estimated to be 2-4 years old, and a mix between English Bulldog and Boxer. Citrus has a classic cautious and disapproving yet personable English Bulldog personality, and the silly play style of a Boxer. We are looking for a household without children for Citrus. Leashed walks are fine, she does not require a fenced in yard. Citrus has dog friends at the shelter - but incorporating her into a home dynamic with other dogs will take weeks. If you are up for it, we can discuss. We cover all needed vet care. The adoption fee is $275. Please apply through our website: rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt

Story
Mr. Pickles A18749850 lb. neutered male, approx 1 year old-This handsome boy has lived in a home and reportedly lived with small dogs and cats. As with any dog coming from the shelter, slow introductions and time to decompress first will help him feel comfortable and set him up for a smooth transition.-He walks nicely without pulling and enjoyed exploring the yard, occasionally coming back to check in for some pets or snacks. He was a little unsure of the traffic outside, but once inside he came over to the blankets to spend some time with me. He sits for treats and takes them very gently, and when he’s comfortable, he’ll happily give kisses. He wasn’t interested in toys during our time together.-When I sat down in the chair, he came right over and jumped up beside me. He really seems to be looking for some reassurance and connection. I think this sweet boy is going to shine once he’s out of the shelter and has a patient person giving him the time he needs to settle in and feel safe.-And can we talk about that adorable underbite?! Those little teefers sticking out to the side are absolutely precious! 😍-Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids•Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt •Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. •Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in. •There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption. •To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering. **And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home.
