Story

🐾 Meet Eve – Our Gentle Giant Mama 🐾 Eve came to Border Tails Rescue very pregnant, and just one week later she gave birth to 8 beautiful puppies. Since day one, she’s been a nurturing and devoted mama, and her foster family feels honored to have earned her trust through it all. Now that her pups are weaned and thriving, it’s finally Eve’s turn to find a forever home of her own. 💛 Eve is a 90-pound lovebug who thinks she’s a lap dog—her favorite thing in the world is snuggling up with her people. She’s sweet and welcoming to anyone who enters the home, incredibly affectionate, and very food motivated (which makes training a breeze!). Eve is dog selective—she has lived with other dogs in her foster home but can be reactive with new ones. Because of this, she’d likely do best as the only pet in the home, or with a very well-matched, calm companion. She’s also leash reactive and a very strong puller, so she’ll need a confident handler who can continue working with her on her leash manners and help her feel comfortable on walks. This gentle girl loves toys of all kinds—but fair warning: stuffies don’t stand a chance. Eve is ready to leave her mama duties fully behind and finally be someone’s baby - all her puppies are adopted and now it's her turn! If you’re looking for a big-hearted, loyal companion, Eve might just be your perfect match. 🐶💛

Story

Sugar Faced Trevor is a two-year-old pit bull with one of the most charming faces you’ll ever see — right on his snout is a perfect little patch of color that looks just like a lipstick kiss. It’s as if someone wanted to make sure the world knew just how lovable he is. Trevor’s personality is as warm as his look suggests. He’s affectionate, playful, and always eager to be near his people. Whether he’s leaning in for cuddles, showing off his goofy side during playtime, or soaking up praise like sunshine, Trevor is a total sweetheart. Despite his “sugar-faced” nickname, Trevor’s still a young guy with plenty of energy and enthusiasm for life. He’s ready for long walks, new adventures, and — most importantly — a family who’ll give him all the love his kiss-marked nose seems to promise.

Story

Meet Yogi! Yogi is an 8-year-old Boxer with a heart full of love and eyes that tell a story. This senior sweetheart came to us from Berrien County Animal Control, and it’s clear he’s been through a lot—but he hasn’t let that dim his gentle spirit. Yogi is ready to leave his past behind and spend his golden years soaking up the comfort and care he truly deserves. He’s the kind of companion who would be happiest by your side—whether that’s taking a leisurely stroll, lounging on the couch, or simply sharing a quiet moment together. He’s not asking for much—just a warm home, a soft bed, and someone to love him unconditionally. Could you be Yogi’s hero and give him the peaceful, loving retirement he’s been waiting for? From his foster: "Yogi learned to be comfortable in his cage after about a few nights and is safe to stay there for hours at a time. However, we trust him to stay outside his cage, with our two cats who also roam, while we're out/asleep and has never made any problems. He never barks and only whines when he wants to go outside. Yogi loves going on long walks (once we went for 2 hours and he still had gas in the tank). It’s much more energy than we thought he would, but that’s probably because we don’t have a yard for him to make his own fun. We’ve also discovered his love of tennis balls and squeaky toys. He loves competing in races for his tennis balls and squeaky toys. He’s not very interested in my cats at all, which is perfect. After about a week or two, they’ve become completely comfortable around him though they’ll get out of his way if they see him coming. It’s made things way less stressful knowing I can trust him with my cats. He seems to have zero prey drive, since he also isn’t interested in rabbits or squirrels that scurry across the sidewalk in front of us. He’s never had an accident in my apartment, though he has thrown up in a car before so now we bring a barf bowl which is pretty effective. We’ve started feeding him a mix of wet food to supplement his diet and help him put on some weight. He seems very fit now. His skin has also improved dramatically. There are no visible bumps or scars on his back, unlike how it looked when he first came home with us. We’ve been teaching him some tricks too. He knows “Stay” and “Come” pretty well, though won’t always listen if there are a lot of distractions. I’ve been teaching him “Leave it” and “Sit” as well. We thought he might be a little deaf at first because he’d ignore his name, but he definitely responds to it now. He’s very friendly with dogs that he meets. He likes to say hi, but he never obsesses over them which helps make him a lot less intimidating and a good companion dog. Similar to people, he likes to say hi and then move on with his walk. He's very sweet and not at all dominating. He’s very calm when meeting people and animals. Yogi is also very tolerant of showers. While he whines a bit, he does not struggle when properly tethered and is not dramatic compared to other dogs. He is further very tolerant of us cleaning his paws 3x a day when we come back from his walks so that he doesn't bring in dirt. Overall, he’s a really sweet dog and I love him. He’s the cutest thing. He loves cuddling with us on the couch but also isn’t too clingy and will stay out of my room."
