Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Evie, one of our newest residents at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue. We are unsure of Evie’s breed but the shelter suggested she could be part Whippet. Evie is about 7 months old and she is a very sweet girl. She loves meeting other dogs and I’ve been told she is potty and crate trained. Evie is very affectionate, she walks well on a leash, and she entertains herself with balls, sticks, and frisbees. She has plenty of personality and love to give but will need to be supervised so she learns to chew on her toys and not other things. Evie has had her initial vaccinations and she has a Vet appt. on Friday for booster shots and to discuss her spay surgery timeline. She will need her first heart worm test at one year of age. If you would like to meet Evie, please submit an adoption application under her name at  happydaysdogandcatrescue.org . Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to    Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a    $19.99/Year registration fee or a $45.00/Lifetime registration fee    to change information.   Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 1, 2024, 11:47 am

Story
Shirley~birth~October 20232My sister and I were abandoned in an apartment. Animal control found us. Then we went on an adventure. We went to animal control then to a horse stable so we wouldn't be in kennels. Now we finally found a foster home. We LOVE people and children. We are on the smaller size we only weigh 20 pounds and will probably not grow much just fill out a little. So we are love in a little package. We like dogs when introduced properly. We haven't seen cats so we will update that as our foster home has some. I am a beautiful mocha color. Look at my beautiful ears I look so regal. I really just want to sit on your lap and be loved! I really want a home of my own. Could it be yours?_____The adoption fee includes age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm test, spay/neuter and microchip!Please use these links for our:Online Adoption Application: paawarren.org/adopt/adoption-application-formWebsite for details, info: paawarren.org

Breed: Whippet/Labrador mixSex: Spayed FemaleDOB: ~08/04/2022Weight: 30 lbsEnergy Level: MediumPersonality Type: Shy, Sweet, PlayfulHistory: Transferred from animal controlIdeal Home: Calmer home, possibly with a single person. Apartments could be okay.Fence Requirements: None.Special Info:DOG APPLICATION: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=26CAT APPLICATION: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=41The information we are providing for this animal was developed based on observations and assessments in a shelter or foster environment. 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 on Petfinder 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 peak 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=26, CAT: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=41, EXOTICS: https://us14b.sheltermanager.com/onlineform_view?formid=46) completely. Every question must be answered, and it must be signed.-Applicants must be 21+ years old and live within a 50-mile radius of our shelter at 22415 Groesbeck Hwy, Warren 48089.-You must identify at least 1 animal that you are interested in.Once your application is received, it will be assigned to one of our volunteer Adoption Counselors who will follow-up with the applicant who is the best fit within a few days, or to discuss other options. 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 continue to 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.

Story
I am Bryson, a 5 year old white and brindle male that came up from West Virginia. I settled in quick into my foster home and get along with the resident female. I can safely say, I am chicken safe! Foster home has Chickens. I love playing with a ball outside and come for pets and kisses. I can coexist with other dogs or be a single dog. I am just a well rounded boy. More about me to come soon !! Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: W Kid friendly: ? See more pics at adoptable dogs.   Please contact GreyHeart Greyhound Rescue & Adoption of Michigan to inquire about this awesome greyhound!   Call 1-866-GET-GREY or fill out the online application at Adopt!  LOCAL *****ADOPTIONS ONLY*****   NOTE!!! Our Philosophy: Adopting a greyhound IS a lifetime commitment. The greyhound can be expected to live 12 to 14 years. To ensure the safety and health of the greyhound, there are 'Adoption Requirements' that must be complied with explicitly. View them on our adoption page and PLEASE do not consider adoption if you will not be able to meet this lifetime commitment or adhere to these requirements. Please also consider the financial responsibility in adopting a greyhound - this responsibility does not end with the Adoption Fee of $250.00. While greyhounds tend to be a pretty healthy breed, there are veterinary costs associated with caring for any dog. GREYHEART's Adoption fee includes: Spay or neuter, Teeth cleaning-extractions included, Heartworm test, Heartworm medication - 3 month's worth, DHLPP vaccine, Lepto booster if needed, Corona-virus vaccine, Bordetella vaccine-if needed, Rabies vaccine, Flea and tick treatment, Fecal test and appropriate medication until negative results are obtained, tapeworm medication - if needed, Collar, leash, muzzle, and GREYHEART identification tag. In the interest of the rescued/retired greyhounds we place, part of the adoption procedure includes an application interview. The purpose of this interview is to be sure the new adopters are prepared to accept the moral, physical and financial responsibilities involved in owning a greyhound...... We try to match the new adopter AND the new greyhound to fit each other's lifestyle. Due to the greyhound's calm nature and their need for a quiet environment, we generally don't place them in homes with children under the age of 5 or homes with more than 2 children under the age of 10. Past experiences have shown us that adding a greyhound to either of these scenarios has a very low chance of success. We want your home to be their forever home!Please go to www.greyheart.org for information regarding the adoption of this greyhound.GreyHeart conducts in home visits with all our applicants, therefore,our Service Area is generally limited to a 2 hr round trip from the Metropolitan Detroit Area.In the interest of the rescued/retired greyhounds we place, part of the foster application procedure includes an application interview. The purpose of this interview is to be sure the new fosters are prepared to accept the moral, physical and minor financial responsibilities involved in fostering a greyhound through GreyHeart. Due to the greyhound's calm nature and their need for a quiet environment, we generally don't place them in homes with children under the age of 6.  Past experiences have shown us that adding a greyhound to that scenario has a very low chance of success.April 19, 2024, 12:16 am
