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 72 pounds and estimated to be about 8 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
Hello there, I'm Chloe. I'm a sweet senior lady, a bit on the shy side, and it may take me a while to warm up. But once I do, I promise, I'm worth the wait. I'm quite independent, but I do love all the attention I can get. A gentle pat on the head or a kind word makes my tail wag with joy. I may be a little nervous at first, but with patience and love, I'll show you the depth of my loyalty and affection. If you're looking for a companion who's independent, yet adores your company, then I'm your girl. I do need to have a 6' privacy fence and due to my nervousness I cannot go to an apartment. If you have a dog friend it needs to be a respectful, calm dog.Adopting me would mean a lifetime of love and companionship. I promise to be the best friend you've ever had.

Welcome to the cereal crew. These little beauties were surrendered to the shelter and we took them under the stipulation that we would spay the mother. So we got all of the puppies. The mother is full blooded Rottweiler but we have no idea what the father is. These little guys are cute and full of love and fun. They just need a family to love them so they can have a good chance at being a family member of a nice family that they can give all of their love to as well. We do transport every weekend alternating between the Northeast and the Midwest. We use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.
