Dogs for Adoption in Garden City, MI: 20 Dogs Looking for a Home

Meet Tripp! Your Future Best Friend!

Hi, I'm Tripp! I'm a sweet Beagle boy with a gentle heart and a playful side just waiting to shine.

I'm still settling into my foster home, and it takes me a little time to feel safe and comfortable with new people. I might be a bit timid at first, but with patience, kindness, and a little understanding, you'll start to see my personality blossom. Give me a few weeks to settle in, and you'll discover the special boy hiding beneath my shy exterior.

A few things you should know about me:

I'm a big fan of chewing on my favorite bones!

I'm a good passenger in the car and ready to ride along on life's adventures.

Meet Domino, our newest resident at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue.

Domino is a Border Collie mix, he’s 1-2 years old, he has a beautiful, long-haired coat, and he weighs about 50 pounds. He is a very social and lovable dog that thrives on being with people. Domino is a very: nice dog and he is reportedly good with other dogs and children.

Domino had his first vaccinations on October 14th and will be scheduled for his booster shots and a heart worm test real soon. He will be neutered at a later date, shortly thereafter.

Meet Winnie, one of our newest residents at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue.

Winnie is a Rottweiler/Shepherd mix, she’s just 8 months old, she has short hair and a beautiful bicolored coat, and she weighs about 50 pounds. She is a wonderful dog, she doesn’t bark much, she’s good with kids and other dogs, and she walks nicely on leash. Winnie loves spending time in the outside play yard and discovering everything the outdoors has to offer; she appears to be potty trained too.

​Meet Prince!! He is a 4-year-old, 53 lb Chow mix. He is sweet, social and outgoing and also housebroken. He loves the outdoors and car rides. You'll get plenty of kisses and hugs from this Prince of a guy! If interested, please fill out an application and come meet this beautiful sweet boy!

Meet Rooster, one of several new arrivals at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue.

Rooster is a Mixed Breed, he’s 1-2 years old, and he weighs about 65 pounds. He is a loving and sweet dog and he enjoys playing ball and other fun games with his people.
Rooster has a wonderful personality, he likes to stand up and give you a hug, he gets along well with other dogs, and he easily meets new people. He was neutered by his previous owner and he may be potty trained.

Rooster has been fully vaccinated, including his Rabies shot, and he will be tested for heart worm disease at his first Vet visit. He did well on his recent physical examination.

Meet Bluey, one of our newest arrivals at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue.

Bluey appears to be a Corgi Mix (?), he’s 2-3 years old, and he weighs 40 pounds. He is a happy and sweet little boy with a coat as soft as cotton and he loves going outside for nature walks and spending time in the play yard.

Bluey has been vaccinated for distemper, adenovirus, type 2 parainfluenza, and parvovirus. I will be scheduling a Vet appt. for a heart worm test, physical, and to get his Bordatella and Leptospirosis vaccinations. Bluey will be neutered after his initial appointment but at a slightly later date.

Meet Finley-Finn, one of our newest residents at the Mikey & Me Kennels for Happy Days Rescue.

Finn is a 2 year old Black Lab mix and he’s slowly learning that the world can be a safe and exciting place. We are looking to place Finn into a loving Foster home while he continues to embrace his new life. Mikey & Me and Happy Days Rescue will cover all standard expenses while Finn is being fostered.

​Meet Marko—aka Juggernaut!

Estimated date of birth: June 16, 2026

Marko was found wandering the streets by a group of children with a very large hernia. Thankfully, a rescue stepped in, had his hernia repaired and had him neutered. He is healing well and is now ready to find his forever home!

Marko is an active, vocal and delightfully sassy puppy. He will need a patient, committed family that understands puppy behavior and is willing to continue his training as he grows.

​
Zena is a wonderful young lady. She loves to lay on our couch or bed and receive cuddles and scratches. She's friendly with everyone we've met so far, including other dogs, people, and kids. She does, however, have a strong prey drive and needs some work on leash training. But she does love going for a walk! She also loves our yard and would really benefit from a well-fenced yard and/or an active owner. I bet she'd be a good running companion. The two times she was off leash and out of our yard (unintentionally), she ranged around, sniffing for interesting prey items, but then returned, ecstatic to see us and our backyard.

Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The microchip is transferred to the adopter once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a one-time $15 microchip enrollment fee. Microchips are enrolled with AKC Reunite. Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.

Meet Dottie!
Dottie may have had a rough start to life, but you’d never know it by meeting her! This sweet girl came to us from DACC with her five puppies, and despite what her past may have looked like, she’s full of love, personality, and fun. ❤️
Her torn-up ear may tell a little story about her past, but Dottie isn’t dwelling on it. She’s too busy enjoying life and making friends! She’s social, fun-loving, and gets along with kids, dogs, and cats. Basically, Dottie is ready to be everyone’s best friend!
Dottie is also working hard toward clearing her heartworm treatment, and she can’t wait for the day when she can put that chapter behind her and focus on her happily-ever-after.
Now all this girl needs is a family to call her own — one that will show her just how wonderful life can be when you’re truly loved.

Courtesy Post for LuckyMeet Lucky, an male blue brindle boy estimated to be between 2 to 5 years old. Lucky has a sturdy, muscular build, a distinct brindle coat, striking amber eyes, and an expressive, handsome face.
​Neighbors reported seeing a car driving around 10 mph out of the condo suburbs strike a dog matching his description, but thankfully, he doesn't seem to have sustained any serious injuries. He is currently eating, drinking, and moving around comfortably in our backyard setup. Lucky has a naturally calm demeanor, loves cuddles and kisses, and is a genuinely sweet companion. He knows how to sit, responds positively to car rides, and enjoys walks, though he does pull on the leash since he hasn't had much leash training.
​He is friendly, non-aggressive, and submissive.

Meet Roman! ❤️
Roman | 3 years old | 115 lbs | Cane Corso
Meet Roman, a big handsome boy with an even bigger heart! ❤️ Born in December 2022, Roman is a 115-pound Cane Corso who absolutely LOVES his people.
Roman is definitely an attached-at-the-hip kind of dog. If his people are around, he wants to be right there with them. He loves being included and is happiest when he can hang out with his favorite humans.
He knows his sit and shake, and he is an absolute rockstar in the car.
Roman can be a little shy when meeting new people and needs some time to warm up. Give him about 30 minutes, though, and you may find this giant boy trying to climb right into your lap! ❤️ Once he knows you, he is incredibly affectionate and loves being close.
He is still working on a few things, too.

Meet Pippa – Your Tiny Best Friend!
At just 5 lbs, Pippa is a tiny nugget with a big personality! This sweet little girl was surrendered from a less than ideal situation, but she's quickly learning that love, safety, and cozy naps are what life is all about.
Pippa has settled into a routine like a champ and is discovering that being part of a family is pretty wonderful. While she's still building confidence, she's an independent, playful little lady who loves doing things at her own pace.
She gets along beautifully with other dogs and has been wonderful with children. Pippa is crate trained and absolutely loves her crate—it's her safe, happy place where she can relax and recharge.
She's making great progress with potty training and learning good manners every day.
