Story
Luna is a WONDERFUL six-year-old staffy (maybe mix). She’s spunky and energetic, and a SUPREME cuddler. She loves to hunt squirrels and fluffy things, take long walks, enjoys training sessions, hanging out in the yard, and being with her people. Luna has anxiety. She bonds deeply with her people and can get nervous when separated if not in a restricted area. This means she’ll eat your shoes. We love Luna and we do not want to let her go. However, we can’t provide the safety and attention she deserves in our two dog home.

Story
Bruce is a stray we found about a month ago. We were unable to find his owner and are looking to find him a new permanent home or foster home ASAP. Bruce is extremely loving and friendly. We have a small child in our home, as well as 2 cats and 2 female labs, and he gets along with them all just fine. He did not however, get along with my mom's dog, who is a scottish terrier (also a male and non neutered) and lot more feisty than our dogs. Bruce LOVES attention and I think would be best suited in a home with no other dogs where he can get all the love. He is potty trained and knows some commands, such as "sit". We believe he is an older dog. He has a vet appointment coming up so we're hoping to get him up to date on his vaccines and get more answers about him. He is not neutered, but we are looking into low-cost options to get that done. We are trying desperately to keep him out of a shelter, but if we don't find something soon, we might have to resort to that.

Story
Anansi is a big, goofy, roughly 4 year old bully mix who came to the shelter as a scared stray. He was pretty afraid of the world when he was picked up, but as soon as he realized he was safe, all his worries seemed to melt away quickly. A typical bully, he definitely is more brawns than brain (so tolerant friends are probably going to be best for him), but we see the heart of gold he has in there. His rear legs are a little wobbly, but they don't seem to bother him otherwise. (Long hikes are probably not in his future.) The key to win him over is booty scratches - you'll be his best friend ever in no time at all!

Story
Beru is a sweet little pibble who was abandoned at a Lansing police station. She was in rough shape so we think her family was trying to get her help. She was recently nursing puppies (she has some patchy hair loss typical of nursing moms too) and had a nasty abscess under her jaw. She's sweet and well behaved and loves people more than anything. She makes grunty noises like a pig when she wants something and she has an adorable kinked tail that wags non stop. She is going to make a great dog for some lucky family!
