Chocolate Labrador Retriever Mix: An adopted dog in Northville, MI

Arrival story: Grizzly was pulled from a rural shelter where he came in as a stray. Grizzly is fully vetted, neutered and microchipped and one handsome guy!

Approximate age / weight: Approximately 1 year old (approx. DOB 8-10-09) and 73 lbs.

Personality: Grizzly was so named because he looks like a big teddy bear that loves to cuddle. Grizzly just moved into his foster home and he is doing great. Griz knows sit and shake :) - he came pre-wired with these commands. He is currently living with two other dogs and children. He loves following the boys around as they play and run and is not bothered by the rowdiness that kids can bring. He loves water and attempts to catch the sprays from squirt guns in his mouth. He is getting along great with his dog mates too. He pulls on the leash at first, but once he settles in he does great. He is sweet, gorgeous,...

Do you have room in your home and heart for Grizzly?

Forever home: Griz would do great with a family with children or without. He is a big boy so he might do better with older children. He would also be happy with or without a dog mate. We are not sure his thoughts on cats at this point, but will keep you posted.

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!
