Story
Lexie is a 6 year old Boxer/Lab mix (among other things). She is super sweet, affectionate, and loves to go on walks and run around in the snow. We adopted Lexie 5 years ago out of foster care. Since then, we have had two kids and recently moved to the Detroit area for new jobs. We are feeling a bit overwhelmed and as a result, we have not been able to give her the attention as she deserves (two walks a day and some play time at the very least). We are hoping to find a new family that can spend quality time with her and give her her best life. She should go to a home that does not have cats and also no young kids, but she would be fine with other dogs. She should be fine with older kids, but we believe the unpredictable nature of our toddlers is making Lexie a bit nervous, leading to a few instances of her knocking them down while playing or seeking our attention. She had her annual vet visit and was fully updated on vaccinations in January 2025, she is in great health.

This gal and her siblings were found dumped in a yard. Cali is very friendly and loves meeting people. She likes to play and just have a good time. She is learning how to sit and stay down but will need all the basic puppy training. She has never left the shelter so will need patience when learning house manners. She is a lot of fun and would love to go on adventures with an active family. She has not been around cats so, if needed, will need to learn how to act around them. Cali is just a fun gal looking for her forever home. She is located in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders.

We do our best to provide information that will help determine if the animal might be a good fit for you. Please note that behaviors may change in a home environment. We also ask our applicants to assume that any animal they adopt from us will need to be potty-trained and learn house manners, although this is not always the case. In most cases, the listed breeds are also a best guess. Our online animal bios are designed to provide as much information as possible and answer some anticipated questions. We do not have the resources to respond to emails with more specific questions.We are receiving an unusually high number of applications at this time! Applications are reviewed as they are received, but we do not select adopters on a first-come basis. Our job is to ensure each pet is placed into the best fit home for them and that adopters are paired with an animal that is a good fit for their lifestyle. All animals will stay online until they are “pending adoption”. Therefore, if an animal is still listed, we are still accepting applications for him/her! Please do not send inquiries about a specific animal's availability as this can change quickly over the course of the day. The fastest way to get a response is to simply submit an application! We will do our best to notify you by email if the pet(s) you are interested in are no longer available. New animals are posted daily, so please let us know if another furry friend peaks your interest (there is no need to fill out a second application)! Fill out the application (DOG:https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=44, CAT: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=41, EXOTICS: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=dr1937&method=online_form_html&formid=46) completely.

It could take up to a couple of weeks for you to receive a final disposition on your application so there is no need to check on the status.-Introductions will be scheduled by appointment only, 30 minutes per appointment. The entire household, including current dogs, must be present for the appointment. (Note: Please do not bring your dogs if you are meeting cats!). The introductions will take place outside in our parking lot (or in our cat room if you're meeting cats).-We will perform vet checks for current and prior pets in the household.-Finalizing the adoption will also be scheduled by appointment.Thank you for your understanding.

Rosy

Boxer Retriever (Unknown Type)

Female, Adult
Redford, MI
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Rosy is a very sweet dog but, she is very needy. She loves to be up under you, and all throw tantrums when she isn't. I got her from someone in the community a few months ago. I like her, but can't deal with the constant need for attention. If I play video games, she will use her nose to throw my hand from the controller. I'm hoping she finds a home with someone who can give her the attention she wants. She is crate trained, which I will give you. I also have a pet vacuum with attachments that I will also include.

Citrus

Boxer English Bulldog

Female, Adult
Detroit, MI
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Citrus was living alone in an abandoned house with no doors or windows. We trapped her, and she got very upset. Citrus was growling for many many days, and did not allow any handling. She finally came around to trust us, and is now a loving sweetheart. Citrus wants an understanding foster-to-adopt home, who wants to baby her. She is estimated to be 2-4 years old, and a mix between English Bulldog and Boxer. Citrus has a classic cautious and disapproving yet personable English Bulldog personality, and the silly play style of a Boxer. We are looking for a household without children for Citrus. Leashed walks are fine, she does not require a fenced in yard. Citrus has dog friends at the shelter - but incorporating her into a home dynamic with other dogs will take weeks. If you are up for it, we can discuss. We cover all needed vet care. The adoption fee is $275. Please apply through our website: rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt

Nacho is a fun 1 year old purebred boxer. We purchased him as a pup from a reputable breeder, and he has been a great dog. However, we are expecting a baby in May of 2025 and realize that we cannot give him the care, attention, and training that he needs. He is house trained and great with kids. He is also professionally trained to sit, come, place, lay down, and heel. He is truly a great family pet.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If interested in any of our animals for adoption, or to foster an animal, please fill out the respective application here to get the process started. Visit our FAQ webpage for commonly asked questions about our adoption/foster process. Do you have tennis balls, like a lot of them, if not will you buy some? If your answer is yes than you might be the home for me! See I am simple girl but I do require lots of tennis balls!! I like other toys but nothing gets me as excited as having tennis balls! My foster says I am just a happy gal, that is good with all people even kiddos! I am house broken, but I may have had a couple accidents but I am still recovering from taking care of my 5 babies for the last several weeks. They all have found their forever homes and now it’s my turn. I was a great mom but my foster promised I never ever have to do it again, which sounds perfect to me! I really love my foster home. See, I also get alone time and have my own room, I have adults and kids who play fetch with me a few times a day. They all helped me get better on the leash, to come when I was called, I am actually even starting to learn how to settle down and watch TV. I would probably like to stay here but they have some big dogs here, I just don’t like when they get in my way. My foster thinks I will much prefer to be the only dog in a home.  I think that is true at least to start. The cats here don’t bother me. Did I mention my NEED for tennis balls, oh I did, okay. Well that’s all for now. Let lastdaydogrescue.org know if you want to meet me by filling out an application. &#226&#128&#139Click here to watch a video of Pu Litter Eevee (Mom).Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal. Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed. The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label. Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by. January 26, 2025, 6:18 pm

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rhea is a beautiful girl looking for a foster or furever home. She was born around March 2022. She is e-collar and crate trained, and she loves to play. She came from a background of neglect, abuse and health issues; but has overcome all of it with proper care, socialization and training. She still needs patience because she is fearful of new people without slow introductions, but once she knows you- she worships you and loves on you so hard. She just needs to establish trust and a safe boundary first. Rhea would do best as a solo pet for now because she is still learning. Rhea's preferred adopter will be someone who can provide consistent structure, open to families with older children (14+) as she is strong and still learning. She is a healthy gal who is spayed, up to date on all her vaccines, and microchipped. Her foster is gifting all her gear to her furever home: crate, blankets, a cot, ecollar and remote, slow feeding bowl, harness and collar. If you are interested in meeting Rhea, please send a message here or email adopt@ahsem.org Adoption fees are as follows: $155 for a single cat or kitten, $195 for a pair of cats or kittens. When adopting a cat from AHSEM the adoption includes spay or neuter surgery, age appropriate core vaccines, microchipping, combo tested (for FIV/FeLV), and basic wellness care including deworming and flea treatment.

Story
Meet Niles! This boy is a fun active guy looking for his forever family to find him. For now, at the shelter, you will typically find him rearranging his blankets, and beds we put out for him to exactly his liking, which usually looks similar to the aftermath of a college party, but we are not judging his design aesthetic. In the middle of it all, you can find him nestled down with his security Kong in his mouth. Niles and a group of his friends were saved from a very bad situation and he is quickly learning that people can be pretty cool. He weighs in at about 50lbs of cuteness and class and is thought to be about 3-4 years old. Niles would like to be an only dog for now as he has never lived in a home before and all his adventures with you will be brand new, but we know he can't wait for it to happen. This boy is ready for fun walks followed by awesome snuggles to Netflix and chill. If you think this guy is your boy, be sure to fill out an app before someone else does!
