Story
Jupiter (Boopy) is an eight year old pitbull. He is extremely sweet, cuddly, and loving. He has been a huge part of our family for years-- and we all love him so much. He is the most kind and friendly dog you will ever meet but he absolutely cannot be around other animals-- especially ones smaller than him. He is also food aggressive but other than that-- he is completely potty trained and also kennel trained. He will drool buckets if you eat in front of him and is definitely an oversized lapdog!

Story
Daisy is 9 years old. She is a very loyal dog and a great watchdog. The best possibility for her would be in a home with no children and no other pets. She is very affectionate but does not like to be left alone. Would be perfect for someone who is retired or works from home. She does love to go for walks and car rides. The only reason we are looking to rehome is she has been aggressive with our other small dog. The aggression only happens when we are not home.

Donatello

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Beagle

Male, Adult
Mason, MI
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Donatello came to the shelter when his owner could no longer afford to care for him. He spent his first 8 months living outside in a small pen. He had no idea how to behave appropriately when he first came to us but he has come a long way! He is learning to keep his feet on the floor, how to sit, and how to play with other dogs. He's a great little guy and will make an amazing dog for someone willing to put in a little bit of time to help him be the best boy ever!
