1. Dottie
Young (2 years 11 months) · Female · American Pit Bull Terrier / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed · 10 mi from Westland




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.

7. Oscar
Young (9 months) · Male · Cocker Spaniel (medium coat) · 17 mi from Westland





Meet Oscar, a sweet 10-month-old Cocker Spaniel who was found as a stray and rescued from an local Animal Shelter. He’s up to date on all vaccinations, preventatives, and has completed all blood work. Oscar is playful, loving, and great with other animals. He would do well in a home with or without children, and he’s already housebroken, which is a big plus. He still needs training because he tends to dart out the front door, so a secure fenced backyard is important for him. Oscar has minor allergies and benefits from 2-3 allergy pills twice a day. He’s a happy, energetic pup eager for love, guidance, and the chance to enjoy a safe, happy life.If you think Oscar might be the right fit for your family, we’d love for you to apply and help him find his forever home.

Bringing a dog home to your cat
Tell the rescue about your cat: their age and how they react to dogs. A dog who has lived calmly with one cat may still want to chase a cat that runs.
Introduce them slowly. Keep them apart for the first few days and swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, then let them meet with the dog on a leash, rewarding calm behavior.
Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, like a high shelf or a room behind a baby gate, and keep the litter box and cat food out of the dog's way.
