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
Name: Comet Breed Guess: Heeler Mix Age: 2 years old Gender: Neutered Male Weight: 56 pounds Shelter Temperament: Friendly & Playful Children: Unknown Cats: No Dogs: Meet and Greet Required Adoption fee: $250 Likes: Playing outside Going for Walks Toys (Tennis balls, and squeaky balls) Comet is currently at the end stages of Heartworm treatment. He will need to be retested in six months. If you have questions about this, please don’t hesitate to ask! The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed. Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet. Please understand that these animals are still new to us and their needs and requirements can change at any time as we learn more about them. We will try our best to get them updated online as soon as possible. All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, the Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and pups receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies, in compliance with State of Michigan laws. All dogs are also microchipped. Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter with proof of sterilization. The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their vet to complete the plan.

Story
Jack Sparrow is a male, heeler mix. Jack is about 1-1/2 years old and weighs 30 lbs. He is very clean in his kennel and quite possibly potty trained. Like his namesake, he is quite the gentleman. The perfect home for Jack, would be with someone who has herding dog experience. If you already have a dog in your home the shelter suggests that you bring him/her with you for a meet and greet. Jack does have an old injury to one of his eyes. Our vet says his eye is not painful and does not need to be removed. The adoption fee for dogs is $90. This fee includes spay/neuter, deworming, heartworm test, rabies & DHLPP shots, flea & tick treatment and license (for Newaygo County residents). Newaygo County Animal Shelter 78 N. Webster White Cloud, MI 49349 231-689-1867 Monday - Friday 11-1 Appointments welcome and available upon request.

Story
For 8 years we have tried to make this country dog a suburb dog, and we have finally surrendered. Otis deserves to have space to run and “work”. He has developed anxiety from being inside too much. He loves playing fetch and chewing on antlers. He is loyal and loves his family including cats. His new home should not include small children as it seems kids and unpredictable situations heighten his anxiety the most.

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
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.December 6, 2023, 9:55 am

Story
Hello - It breaks our hearts to have to write this. We are looking for a new home for our loved Aussie Finnley (aka Finn or Finny or Finny boy). A little bit about him.. He’s 9 years old and his birthday is June 14. He’s great with older kids and adults. An absolute lover and just wants to be around his people. Hes totally content snuggling on the couch or playing in the yard. He’s an anxious one and is on meds daily to help with this. He would be best suited for a calm and stable house, with a fenced yard to explore. He’d be great with older kids or just adults. He doesn’t do well with other dogs and is often reactive towards them. Unknown toward cats. He’s all caught up on vaccinations. He’s completely house trained, has never had an accident indoors. He is a bit of a Houdini when it comes to finding people food though. We love him to death. And are utterly heartbroken and gutted at the fact that we’ve decided this. But we know deep down he deserves better
