Story
Winston, male pit bull mix (amputee) Winston was shot with a 12 guage rifle in November of 2015. He lost his leg because his owner failed to keep him in a safe environment (fenced yard). While he was wandering the area, he was shot in the leg. Unfortunately, he lost his leg, and his home after that, as his owner couldn't take responsibility for his vet care either. Winston is a ton of fun. He plays ball like a champ, click here to see him go! https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=915137805263915&id=381107812000253 He's not so good with other dogs, but he loves men, women, and kids!! Winston has a requirement for a fenced yard, and no other pets. He has accepted neighbors dogs after some time getting to know them through the fence in his foster home. He knows sit, fetch, leave it, and is house trained, crate trained (iif needed, but he's generally a good boy), neutered and a big lover.

Story
Hello, my name is Nova. I got lost while out for my morning coffee and nobody came looking for me to take me back home. I`m about 6years old and weigh about 60lbs. When I`m not out cleaning up the streets, I love to go for walks and play outside. Other dogs and I get along but I have enough energy for the both of us and it would be nice to be around a more relaxed dog. I absolutely enjoy being the center of attention while soaking up all of the pets. When its time to get ready for work, I put my Animal Control vest on I give my peers a hard time by rolling on my back and laugh as they struggle. But once its on then its time for funny business and I play, and play with all of my toys until its time to clock out for the day. I love everyone with the same energy so much that the amount of love that I have to share may not be the best suited for small or young kids. (Sorry). For this reason too cats may also not be able to support the energy I can bring. I think in my right forever home I will be able to lay on the couch and watch some movies with my people. Adopt me please, and you won`t regret it! I promise. My adoption fee is being sponsoredIf you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.

Story
Hey there!My name is Beans! I`m about 6 months old, I currently weigh about 40lb, and I`m a Pitty mix!I came to MCAC as a stray, where unfortunately it was discovered that I have parvo! Parvo can be a fatal disease if left untreated, but it is so easily preventable with proper vaccinations. Fortunately it was discovered in time and I was treated and have made a full recovery!I`m a super happy and playful young man! I don`t really know any tricks or commands yet, but I would love to go to puppy obedience school and learn!I would probably do best in a home with kids 10 and up. I`m still a pup and learning my manners, and I might not be a good fit with small kids and toddlers.I do get along with other dogs, so if you have one I would love to meet them provided that they are fully vaccinated!I`m not good with cats in the house and if my new home has another dog it has be another playful young dog because I love to play with high energy dogsI`m up to date on my vaccines, I will just need to see my new veterinarian within 2 weeks of my adoption to ensure that I stay healthy and keep on a regular vaccination schedule.I`m currently available as a foster to adopt, as I`m just being treated for an upper respiratory infection and waiting to be neutered, which is scheduled for 10-10-23.If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.

Story
Hey there!My name is Kingston! I`m about 4 years old, weigh about 52lb and I`m a Pitty Mix! I might have a little Shar-pei in me because I have these really adorable squishy cheeks! I`m a very sweet, laid back boy. I know how to sit, I walk super well on a leash, and I take treats really nicely! I`m also very good when I go for buh bye rides in the car! I would probably do best with kids 10 and up, but bring them in so we can meet and see if we`re a good match!! I love playing with other dogs, and if you have one at home I would love to meet them! I`ve never really been around cats, though, so if you have one of those please introduce us slowly and supervise us. I`m up to date on my vaccines, I will just need to see my new veterinarian within 2 weeks of my adoption to ensure that I stay healthy and keep on a regular vaccination schedule.So here`s a little bit about my back story. I came to MCAC as a stray, and my previous family never came to find me! While I was here, it was discovered I am heartworm positive. This is such a preventable disease but can be fatal if left untreated! The wonderful staff has started me on treatment, and I`m pretty close to being finished with it!If you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.

Story
Hello, my name is Clay and I came into shelter as a stray. I`m about 3 years old and weigh about 69lbs. I`m a very strong boy so I will do better on a harness then just a typically leash. I do know how to sit when I want a treat. I love to play with all types of toys and run in a yard. I play well with other dogs in the yard but I do not do well with cats.I would be great to go into a home with a fence in yard because I enjoy running around with a toy in my mouth. I will be fine in a home with older kids like 13 and up because I`m so strong. Also I am an active dog so being a home that is very active will benefit me a lot. I also love to sleep in nice cozy bed and relax after a nice long day of playing.My adoption fee is being sponsoredIf you are interested in adopting me or another homeless pet at Macomb County Animal Control, walk-in adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm.
