German Shepherd Dog Mix: An adopted dog in Northville, MI

Arrival story: Guiness came to us from a shelter when his time was nearly up.

Approximate age / weight: 9 months/ 48 lbs.

Personality: What a handsome boy! Guiness is a very happy and good-natured dog. He gets along great with the other dogs. He is a calm and quiet boy, rarely barking, and does well in his crate. He is still a puppy, so he needs a little work on his manners and learning not to jump, but he is a quick learner and already knows how to sit.

Guiness is fully housetrained! Way to go, Guiness! He would love to curl up at your feet or have his belly rubbed. He also walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys walks through the park.

Forever home: Guiness would do well in a variety of home settings. Because he loves to run and play, a home with a fenced yard would be perfect for him.

Pre-Adoption Application: To be considered for a dog, it is best to submit a pre-adoption application. The Pre-Adoption Application can be downloaded from our website - http://www.waggintailsdogrescue.org/adoptionprocess.html. Just complete the application and email it back to wtdr2008@yahoo.com

Waggin' Tails Adoption Information: Waggin' Tails Dog Rescue has a standard adoption fee of $175 for adult dogs. Different adoption fees apply for older dogs, small breeds and puppies - $100 for senior dogs (9 years +), $275 for small breed dogs and $200 for puppies plus a $50 deposit which is returned upon proof of spay/neuter at six months of age.
Our adoption process includes an application, vet reference checks, and a home visit.

We do not have a facility; all of our dogs are fostered in private homes. To view our dogs, please check www.waggintailsdogrescue.org for the dates of our next adoption events. To meet a dog in person, please see our event calendar for the latest information. Arrangements can be made to meet our rescue dogs outside of Saturday adoption events after an approved application is submitted (the application does not imply an obligation by the applicant or by the rescue group).

Please be kind to our volunteers who have made rescue a second job that they do in their spare time after coming home from full-time jobs. E-mail inquiries will be answered much more quickly than phone inquiries; our phone number is a voice mailbox only.

Thank you for your support of rescue and your interest in a rescue dog!
