Story
Lucky is a 4,5 years old rescue dog, we got him through a shelter in Boulder at age 1,5-2 y old. He is a good dog and trained by Blackpaw dog trainer. He never damages anything in the house, he sleeps in his crate, house trained for a long time. When he knows the people he is very good but he needs to be introduced properly. He is very good with my family, including 3 years old granddaughter, but he can be very protective of all of us when stranger comes. My husband has Alzheimer's and he is his dog and he is not handling him well and dog is getting very protective of him, noticing his weakness on leadership. He gets into fights with other dogs sometimes to protect him if they walk alone. This doesn't happen with me. He does listen to me but not him. That's why we want to rehome him to get him an owner he will respect and treat him properly. We love him very much but this is better for us and Lucky.

Story
Mazy was abandoned by her prior owners, left behind when they moved away. She had to fend for herself for several months. In the same part of town that Mazy was hanging out, a doodle, whose owner allowed to roam the streets, impregnated Mazy. Not knowing where else to go, Mazy had her four puppies under the house where she was abandoned. She was a very good mom and went out every day to find food to keep nursing her puppies. That is when animal control followed her one day becasue they could see she was nursing. One of the animal control officers had to crawl under the house to save the puppies. Mazy was happy for the help and she allowed the puppies to be brought out one by one while she waited outside of the house.  Mazy resembles a fox, very petite and regal! Mazy is a very affectionate dog and loves to be loved on by her people. She is hungry for human interaction! At first she is cautious but once you scratch her head and love on her she melts. She enjoys the yard and finds squirrel very intriguing. If she wants, she can escape a 4ft fence in pursuit of a squirrel who taunts her. This smart girl is both house and crate trained. She is trustworthy sleeping outside the crate at night. She loves to be brushed and has the most beautiful, multicolored coat. At ~30-35 pounds and 2 years of age, Mazy is the perfect size no matter what your activiites. She is gentle and sweet with all humans she meets and greets new dogs with ease and comfort. She is relaxed and easy going. Mazy deserves a loving home where she can be part of the family and not have to worry about being left behind! If you would like to adopt, please complete an application  at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $250 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   Please note, Circle 2 Rescue cannot guarantee the breed, composition or ages of our dogs as we usually have limited history prior to them entering the rescue.  ##2331083##

Story
Meet Lyric! Formerly known as Luna, this sweet girl is as special as they come! Lyric came to us with her 7 babies, whom have all found their forever homes. She just finished her heartworm treatment and is ready for her next adventure in life.  Lyric is a sweet, submissive pup who loves other dogs. She can be shy when first meeting new people and needs a patient person or family to let her acclimate into. She's likely spent much of her life either in a shelter environment or living on the streets. She is more timid around men and will need extra time and patience.  She can have bouts of high-energy play and loves to romp around the yard and receive mental stimulation like puzzle bowls, slow feeders, kongs etc. She’ll need an active family who can keep her entertained. While she’s not potty trained yet and doesn’t fully understand how the dog door works, she’s eager to please and would love a patient teacher to help her learn. If you’re interested in helping Lyric heal and maybe even foster-to-adopt now that she's completed heartworm treatment, she’d love to meet you! She’ll need to stay on preventatives for the rest of her life and will require future check-ups to ensure she stays healthy. Apply online at (www.lolasrescue.com)! You can email Info@lolasrescue.com anytime with questions pertaining to animals in our care.  **Animals at the rescue center are available to meet during regular hours as listed on our website. ** ##2154017##

URGENT Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Livonia, MI Meet Oakley! She is an 11 month old Australian Shepherd and weighs 35 lbs.

Story
Hi!!! I'm Nivea!My favorite things are crinkle toys, humans (all shapes and sizes), cats, dogs, running around outside, food, and cuddling! Sometimes, this world can be a little too overwhelming for me, but with a routine and some time to adjust, I turn into your typical puppy! You wouldn't know it, but I can't see very well and I can't really hear. Don't let that discourage you, I promise I make up for it with my fun-loving personality and lots of cuddles.  Because of my impairments, I sometimes get anxious when I'm alone. A home where someone in my family is with me more often than not is ideal! I just don't like being alone most of the time.  I'm learning some touch training commands, and I'm learning where to go to the bathroom. Leash walking is so much fun too!! I just like to run, especially in circles!! My foster mom says that's not ideal most days, so she is helping me learn how to walk properly too. If you want a cuddle buddy and friend to play with, I'd love to meet you!! Apply online at www.lolasrescue.com Dogs that state ***RESCUE CENTER*** are available for meet and greets 7 days a week between 11am and 4pm at Lola's Rescue Center located at 22351 E.

Story
Sammy is looking for a new home after this transitional period of his life! He would likely enjoy a home that is slower paced and allows him to approach his new family at his own pace. A bit sensitive towards touch, he'd likely appreciate a more hands off approach while he settles into his new normal. Once comfortable you'll likely see his bouncy side as he enjoys playing with balls and exploring new places with his family. Sammy has enjoyed opportunities for casual recreation with others, but isn't fond of sharing his living space. He will only be placed in a home with children 10 or older and without other dogs.
