Murphy is a giant cuddle bug. He is the sweetest dog you will ever meet. He is a 4 year old Akita Lab mix who thinks he is a 100 lbs lap dog!! Murphy came to me a few weeks ago when his owner had to take on more hours at work. We have two dogs already (who he gets along well with) and are not looking to add to our home at this time. Murphy is extremely intelligent and loves to make friends. He is great around all dogs, cats, kids big or little!! He loves to be around people and loves adventures!

Meet Hazel! Hazel came to us as a stray and sadly was never claimed, so she is now searching for a new forever home! Hazel is a Akita mix that is about 3 years old and weighs about 53 pounds. Hazel is a sweet and spunky girl with lots to give! Hazel is housebroken and is good with kids, she will need a home without cats. Hazel is good with the other dogs, we do require a dog intro with any future k-9 siblings to make sure everyone gets along. Hazel is up to date on her vaccinations, dewormed, flea treated, heartworm tested negative, microchipped & spayed! If you are interested in Hazel please contact the shelter directly at 989-831-7302 to set up an appointment!

Story
Rusty is a good boy. We had him since he was a puppy and is completely house broken. He has the typical husky spunk and howl, but is surprisingly mellow for his bred. He is 10 years old right now. Has never shown aggression towards any person. Other animals on the other hand. He will get jelious around your pet cat, so keep that in mind. He does better around other smaller to medium size dogs, but doesn't tolerate dominant behavior in alpha dogs and may fight depending on the other dogs temperment. If you and your other dogs are mellow he will be too. He does love table scraps and will sneakly eat your food if you let him. He will need walks routinely or otherwise he will get depressed. He is very affectionate, but will not let you cuddle him like a lap dog. I took him through basic obedience school and broke the habit of jumping,chewing,and some barking. He knows basic comands like sit, come, and stay. Loves head scratches and belly scratches. Will you invite him into your loving home

Gus is a very sweet, loving husky. He’s a puppy and needs space to run and get his energy out. He is house trained but needs someone that will have the time to train him, especially crate training. He’s a great dog! He comes with a crate and food.
