Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Cooper; She is very sweet girl, who is looking for her fur-ever home. We believe she is around 3-4 years old and is a cattle dog mix. She came to us when her owner passed away and the other owner couldn’t care for her. Due to her breed or mix of breeds we are looking for a very specific home for her where she will be set up best for success! Cooper is pretty reactive towards people on leash and will nip at shins or ankles. She enjoys lots of exercise, biking right now seems to be her favorite. She’d probably do best as an only dog, as loves all the attention on her! She has had some interaction with other dogs on leash and she will correct them if their energy becomes to much for her.   Cooper also needs a kid free home.   We are requiring that her fur-ever home have heeler experience and be committed to getting her the training that she needs. Cooper will also need someone who is willing to do some training with her. **Cooper being a heeler mix does have high herding tendencies, and has a single “bite history” as she nipped someone in the calf.     An approved adoption application is required. The $200 adoption fee (payable by cash or check only) includes spay/neuter; microchip; dental teeth cleaning (if needed prior to adoption); vaccinations; and heartworm testing. Our adoption application may be found by going to: www.headinhomerescue.org; then click on the link to the adoption application. Dogs for adoption may be seen by appointment only following an approved application. Proof of completion of an obedience class is required for all dogs following adoption. Please note: while we welcome out of state applications, we do not ship our animals and require adopters to come to Holland to finalize any adoption.June 25, 2025, 4:08 pm

Story
Did you know that the ivy plant is a symbol of everlasting life, devotion, fidelity and loyalty? An inspiring name for a charismatic pooch such as myself! Being the young lady that I am, an active family would be a match made in heaven! Play time is quite possibly my favorite time of day (sometimes I get a bit carried away with my plushy toys). I like to live life enthusiastically, having a positive direction for my gusto would be the ultimate delight for me! Although physical activity is an absolute riot, having a cool down period with some mental games is a good time too. At the end of the day, I just want to be involved with my people. I am not one to turn down a snuggle session by any means. What can I say, I am a sweetheart after all. I hope to find a family that wants to understand and accepts me for the glorious rescue dog that I am. For instance, I like some other dogs, but not every dog. Smaller dogs (and cats for that matter) remind me of chicken nuggets, I can't help but feel some prey drive there. But some other dogs my own size are fun to hang out and play with. I suppose that its pretty normal to not get along with everyone you meet in life though. Whether or not you are a botanical enthusiast, if you are looking for a forever companion submit your adoption application for the perfect furry addition! DOB: 5/25/2021 For safety's sake, we are looking for homes with physical fenced in areas. Please fill out our online adoption survey at www.mackenzies.info/adopt/adoption-survey-application/

Story
This is Mazy. Shes a 5 year old Australian Shepard. She came from a local shelter and we took her in to foster or adopt. She is ready for a forever home. Shes a typical herding dog so she needs someone who understands the breed. Mazy needs walks everyday and ample play time. She is super sweet and does well around older kids (our kids are 6 and 9) cats, other dogs. She will be nervous at first but thats because shes very smart. It didnt take much time at all for her to warm up to us. She loves treats!!! She loves cuddles on the couch. We have been working with her and the mouthy excitement behavior. Keeping toys by the door seemed to do the trick. I hope you have room for her in your family.

Story
It breaks my heart to do this. We took Ozzy in from a home where he was in his crate a lot. He met our dogs and everything was fine and we thought it was just a too much energy problem. But he has now become very protective of me and my son as a result aggressive towards our other dogs. My son is 3.5 and he’s really good with him just has a lot of energy. He is super smart and knows a lot of commands, plays fetch like a champ and loves our runs/walks/hikes. I think he would do best in a home without another dog with someone who wants an active companion.
