Story
MEET PUMPKIN: Breed: Shih TzuAge: 7 months Pumpkin is a sweet, 7-month-old Shih Tzu who is ready to find his forever home! After being surrendered by his owner, Pumpkin has been looking for a loving family that can provide him with the care and attention he needs. Despite his initial shyness, he is a loving and affectionate puppy with a lot of potential. Pumpkin is a gentle spirit who gets along with other dogs and has no issues with cats. He would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand how to interact patiently with a shy puppy. He is alert and aware of his surroundings, making him a great little watchdog who will let you know if something is amiss! As a puppy, Pumpkin will require regular grooming to maintain his beautiful coat. He has a good understanding of house manners and is currently working on crate training. Since he is still learning about the world, he will need a physical fenced yard to ensure he can play safely. Tethering is not recommended for him, as he thrives in an environment where he can roam and explore. He also has no experience with leash walks so he will need to learn those skills slowly. Pumpkin is also not familiar with toys yet, but with some encouragement, he can discover the joys of playtime! Pumpkin is looking for a caring and supportive family that can offer him patience and love as he adjusts to his new environment. A home with a secure, fenced yard and someone who can help him develop leash skills would be ideal. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this sweet boy, he’s sure to bring joy and warmth to your life! If you are interested in adopting Pumpkin and giving him the loving home he deserves, please consider completing an adoption application. Don’t miss the chance to create wonderful memories with this adorable puppy! Pumpkin  is:Current on Rabies and DistemperDewormedHeartworm Tested: NegativeReceiving Heartworm and Flea PreventionMicrochippedScheduled to be neutered at our partner Veterinary office. ADOPTION FEE: $425 IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PET, PLEASE COMPLETE THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATION FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE HTTP://FUREVERTAILS.COM. Unfortunately, at this time we are not currently adopting outside of the state of MI.

FUREVER TAILS IS A NON-PROFIT, NO-KILL, FOSTER HOME BASED ANIMAL RESCUE BASED OUT OF OAKLAND TOWNSHIP, MI.

Story
MEET HUNNIE: Age: 2 years Breed: Shih Tzu/Poodle mix Weight: 12 lbs Hunnie is a petite and loving girl searching for her forever home! Rescued from an unfortunate backyard breeding situation, she's ready to experience the joy of a loving family. Hunnie can be a little shy and hesitant initially with unfamiliar faces, but she is a total sweetheart with boundless affection to share. Hunnie's gentle nature and affectionate personality make her a perfect companion. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has no issues with cats. She's great with children who understand how to interact respectfully with dogs. Hunnie is already house-trained and well-behaved. A securely fenced yard would be wonderful for Hunnie to enjoy, but she's not suitable for tethering. She also walks nicely on a leash. She's comfortable and happy in her crate if need be while you are away. Hunnie is the type of dog that will require regular grooming to keep her coat maintained. Hunnie is highly food-motivated, making training a breeze! She enjoys being close to her people and thrives on affection. This happy girl is simply eager to be part of a loving family. Hunnie is:Current on Rabies and DistemperDewormedHeartworm Tested: NegativeReceiving Heartworm and Flea PreventionMicrochippedScheduled for spay surgery at one of our partner veterinary clinics.ADOPTION FEE: $375 IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PET, PLEASE COMPLETE THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATION FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE HTTP://FUREVERTAILS.COM. Unfortunately, at this time we are not currently adopting outside of the state of MI.

Story
**adoption pending** Annie is really quite lovely under all that hair, she has had a haircut since these pictures were taken and looks darling. She is estimated to be about 2 years old and weighs only 10 pounds. Annie is such a sweet and playful girl, but was sadly neglected in her previous life. When we first got her, she was quite matted and uncomfortable, but she is all prettied up now with a haircut and a nice bath! She is incredibly sweet, silly, and loves to play and be close to people. Annie is a friendly little thing for sure, but just a tad shy when you first me her. She has a perfect sit and likes toys too, maybe her new family can have a little basket of them for her. Annie is a very special dog, and we are hoping to find her the perfect forever home where she can receive the love and care she so desperately deserves. She may prefer a quieter, more predictable type home with older children due to her size and being a little shy. If you are interested in Annie and are at least 21 years old, please come to our kennel during business hours, make an appointment, or fill out an application at k9stray.com and an adoption counselor will be in touch. We look forward to helping you find your new best friend! *Please check your lease agreements for breed/weight restrictions prior to applying. We also do not do cat testing, so we do not know how a dog will do with cats. Not all dogs are available to go home on the same day you first meet.*

We do our best to provide information that will help determine if the animal might be a good fit for you. Please note that behaviors may change in a home environment. We also ask our applicants to assume that any animal they adopt from us will need to be potty-trained and learn house manners, although this is not always the case. In most cases, the listed breeds are also a best guess. Our online animal bios are designed to provide as much information as possible and answer some anticipated questions. We do not have the resources to respond to emails with more specific questions.We are receiving an unusually high number of applications at this time! Applications are reviewed as they are received, but we do not select adopters on a first-come basis. Our job is to ensure each pet is placed into the best fit home for them and that adopters are paired with an animal that is a good fit for their lifestyle. All animals will stay online until they are “pending adoption”. Therefore, if an animal is still listed, we are still accepting applications for him/her! Please do not send inquiries about a specific animal's availability as this can change quickly over the course of the day. The fastest way to get a response is to simply submit an application! We will do our best to notify you by email if the pet(s) you are interested in are no longer available. New animals are posted daily, so please let us know if another furry friend peaks your interest (there is no need to fill out a second application)! Fill out the application (DOG:https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=44, CAT: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=41, EXOTICS: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=46) completely.

It could take up to a couple of weeks for you to receive a final disposition on your application so there is no need to check on the status.-Introductions will be scheduled by appointment only, 30 minutes per appointment. The entire household, including current dogs, must be present for the appointment. (Note: Please do not bring your dogs if you are meeting cats!). The introductions will take place outside in our parking lot (or in our cat room if you're meeting cats).-We will perform vet checks for current and prior pets in the household.-Finalizing the adoption will also be scheduled by appointment.Thank you for your understanding.
