Story
This itty-bitty potato look-alike is Spud🥔🥹🤎 Spud is such a good girl and we all love her so much. She's a lil' shorty and is only about 48-pounds. Perfectly sized for cozy cuddles! When she gets excited, her little paws do the cutest tippy-taps and she melts our hearts. The thing about Spud that breaks our hearts is that she is so extremely kennel-stressed that she is not thriving in the shelter. She needs a foster home and someone who is willing to put time into helping her learn that she can trust people❤ The way to Spud's heart is not through food...this girl is all about patience and building a relationship. She has a timid and reserved personality. Please be willing to spend time with Spud so she can get to know you. Once she is out of her kennel for a bit, she relaxes and shows off her silly side. Once she is comfortable, she likes tennis balls and will walk around soliciting affection and pets. We know that Spud's in-the-home needs may be hard to find; but she is very much so worth the effort to try to find exactly what she needs. Spud needs a quiet and consistently calm home with few visitors. Everyone should be teenaged and up, and she'll need extra time to get to know any males, but, as you can see, she does come around! We'd love it if the foster was knowledgeable about dogs with anxiety. Our Spud girl is a bit of project and we can help guide her foster; we just need someone to be willing❤ She will be most comfortable being the only furbaby. Spud is about three years old, is about 42-pounds, and is spayed. To foster her, fill out the application found here: https://michianapets.org/get-involved/foster/. If you would like to adopt her, she is available to be fostered-to-adopted, as well🤎🥔🐾

Story
As a perfectly pint-sized babe at 35-pounds, Evie packs a whole lotta love, happiness, and joy into that lil' body! She LOVES people, LOVES other dogs, and is quite possibly the cutest, wiggliest good girl🖤🤍🖤 Evie has a superpower of instantly brightening the days of those she is around. It's completely impossible to not smile around her. Evie sits politely when asked to do so and takes her treats so gently. We observed her around kitty friends and she was really just more interested in visiting with people! It looks like she has the potential to do well with cats with a proper introduction. If your kiddos are respectful, Evie would most likely be their absolutely best friend. Evie is about one and a half years old and is spayed. Come meet her💗💗💗

Story
Val has been doing well so far. She`s a snuggly sweet girl who loves to be around me and Finn. She also absolutely loves toys, and chewing. Her favorite toys are soft ones with a squeaker or that make a crinkly sound. She`s also a fan of antlers, but doesn`t show interest in the really hard bones.She is super curious and like most puppies, she does like chew things up. We`ve been working very hard on what things she can chew and what things she should not. I found she really likes to chew cords, which can be concerning. I`m addressing that as best I can and removing all the cords when I`m not around. Admittedly, that`s not a long-term solution for her potential new family, so if you have any tips, I`d appreciate it. She does tear up her toys, but not quickly.She`s quite the wiggle worm. She`s been enjoying our walks at Howard Park. She is very curious of the people and what`s going on around her. We will try a hike the woods soon and see if she enjoys hiking. She`s actually doing very well at potty training. She`s mastered my doggie door. I really think she`s gonna be fully potty trained shortly because she is really smart.She is good with routine, does not seem to have any significant separation anxiety. Loves all dogs we encounter. She is getting much more relaxed. Getting in and out of the car is still the one time she still gets really nervous, but she likes riding in the car.

I’m Jeremiah. I am 1 year and I weigh 30 pounds. I am an exceptional little guy. I’m cuddly, out-going and dog friendly! I did not pass cat testing so I’ll be adopted to a home without cats. I came in to the shelter as a stray. I love tennis balls and playing outside. I’m a happy out going boy that is eager to meet you, and eager to please. I am working on my potty training!

Hi, I’m Pais. I’m a little sweet heart that is 1.5 years and 46 pounds. The shelter is so full of dogs they’re hoping I find a loving home quickly! Someone will fall in love with my cuddly, bouncy personality. I lived with another dog at one point. Sadly, I was found as a stray and my owner was unable to reclaim me due to living conditions. I love to play with toys, and play with other dogs. I walk great on a leash and im doing really well with my potty training!
