Story
Medusa would love to be the QUEEN BEE and be appreciated for the alpha she is. She is an American Bully which is a new designer breed (mislabeled English Bulldog, Pittie, Pocketpittie, MicroBully). She is guessed to be 4 years old and around 45 lbs. Short and stocky, she is a healthy and easy dog to care for unlike the other bully breeds. Medusa can be bossy and demanding of attention, jealous when humans talk to the other dogs in her foster home. She is fostered with small and big dogs, but requires correction and supervision to avoid a 'girl fight' She would do best as an only dog to keep the peace and let her enjoy a family. Spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and heartworm treated/on prevention - she is ready for adoption just in time for the holidays FOSTERED IN TEXAS. *Adoption Fee includes fee by van transport to PNW, Midwest or NY-NJ-CT-VA-VT states by pet transport partners.

The setback caused jealousy behaviors which we are working on. Medusa sleeps in a crate when her foster family is not home, at night, she shares a pillow and snuggles in the human bed.

Story
Meet Poncho- The Biggest Goofball! Poncho is a 6-year-old American Bulldog mix who’s making up for lost time — and having so much fun doing it. This 60-pound bundle of joy is white with adorable black spots, and he’s packed with personality, charm, and energy to spare. Since arriving at our shelter, Poncho has discovered the pure magic of kiddie pools, belly rubs, and running full-speed with the zoomies around the yard. He loves every person he meets and greets new friends with enthusiastic wiggles and hopeful eyes. That said, he's still working on some manners — especially his habit of jumping up when he's excited — so he’d do best in a home without small children for now. Poncho has lived his entire life outdoors, so things like crate training and potty training are totally new to him. But don’t worry — this boy is super food- and attention-motivated, and he’s eager to learn. He’s shown no negative reactions to other dogs in passing, and while we haven’t officially dog- or cat-tested him yet, we think his high energy might be a bit overwhelming for feline friends. Poncho’s story is one of survival and new beginnings. He came from C.H.A.I.N.E.D, a Detroit-based organization that provides care to dogs living chained or kenneled outdoors. Poncho lived in an outdoor kennel beside Bobby (another of our adoptable sweethearts), and the two were cared for by C.H.A.I.N.E.D. volunteers who made sure they had hay and heated igloos in the winter. When their former family moved to Mexico and couldn’t take the dogs along, we stepped in to give them a chance at real homes — the kind with couches, toys, love, and a soft place to land. Poncho is now looking for a patient, active home where he can continue learning what it means to be a family dog. He needs someone who can guide him through the basics with consistency and love, and in return, you’ll get endless laughs, devotion, and maybe a wet kiss or two. If you're looking for a dog who will adore you endlessly, make you laugh daily, and fill your home with joy — Poncho is your guy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like to meet Poncho, please submit an application for me on our website https://www.friendsofmichigan.org/adoptable-dogs. He is neutered, up to date on all age appropriate vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. Poncho's adoption fee is $250, which covers part of the medical care he has received. **Please note that the breed listed for each of our dogs is a rough estimate unless DNA results are provided in their Bio. All strays have rough estimates of their age based on the condition of their teeth. Each dog is different, so each adoption is different. Our adoption process might require multiple visits to the shelter before our dogs can go home. Or they may be ready on the first visit. It really depends on the individual dog and the potential adopters. Once we receive your application, the Dog Staff will contact you to discuss meeting our dogs.

Story
Good With Kids: No experience with kids yet Good With Other Dogs: Yes with slow intros Good With Cats: No Housetrained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes but not fond of it Walks Nicely On A Leash: Workin’ on it Knows Basic Commands: Workin’ on it Energy Level (Couch Potato, Moderate or High): Moderate Special Needs: * Physical Fence: N/A Favorite Toy / Activity: Fetch. Has a favorite ball. Arrival story: It’s a long, sad story of bouncing around from place to place. We know there is a Georgie devotee out there, though! Approximate age / Weight: About 3 yrs old / 50 lbs. Personality: Meet Georgie, the 50-pound sweetheart with a perfectly placed brown eye patch and a heart that’s somehow stayed soft through every twist life has thrown at him. This gentle bully breed mix has been bounced around far more than any dog should be, but he’s still hopeful, still willing to trust, and still ready to love the person who finally loves him back. Georgie is a belly rub connoisseur and a champion fetch enthusiast—whether you toss his favorite ball, a beloved stuffy, or anything that squeaks (oh yes, he LOVES a good squeaker), he’s ready to play. When playtime winds down, you’ll find him happily nesting himself into a cozy pile of blankets like the comfort-loving little burrito he is. Around the house, Georgie has lovely manners and a wonderfully charming “woo-woo” alert bark that lets you know he takes his role as watch dog seriously—without being overly chatty about it. He’s easygoing about having his ears or paws handled, and he’s learning helpful cues like touch, find it, and come. He’s a bright boy who genuinely wants to get it right. *After everything he’s been through—rescue, shelter life, being a stray, and too many false starts—Georgie is understandably cautious. He’s finding his footing again and will need a patient family who gives him time, space, and consistency to fully settle in. Car rides aren’t his favorite yet, and he’ll benefit from some medical or behavioral support for that piece, but he tries so hard in every other way. New Home: What Georgie wants most is simple: a home where he’s safe, understood, and finally stays. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a tender spirit, a goofy side, and a heart looking for its forever match, Georgie just might be your guy. CONTACT: Please contact wtdr@waggintailsdogrescue.org with any questions or submit adoption application via our website www.waggintailsdogrescue.org/adoption-application.
