Blue

Breed: Black lab mix<br/>Age: 10 months (as of 4/16/26)<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Weight: approx. 50lbs<br/>Energy Level: High<br/>Adoption Fee: $250 + $50 refundable deposit<br/><br/>Am I good with:<br/>Cats: We Can Test<br/>Dogs: Yes (Meet and greet required)<br/>Children: Yes<br/><br/>About me: These two brothers have officially turned one year old while in our care and, if you know anything about black labs, you know shelter life is absolutely not for them.<br/><br/>Already high energy dogs by nature, they spend too much of their time in kennels and despite the incredible efforts of our volunteers and staff, they simply cant get enough time out to fully meet their needs. Blue and Bear are looking for homes, together or separately, with people who understand the energy, training, and commitment that comes with young labs.<br/><br/>They need room to run, things to do, and families willing to dedicate time to helping them become the amazing dogs we know they can be. Both are dog friendly! Because of their energy levels and their lack of awareness of just how big they are, older children would be the best fit. They have not been cat tested, but they have shown signs of prey drive, so a home without cats would likely be best.<br/><br/>These boys have spent their teenage months waiting, we would love nothing more than for their adult years to be spent in homes of their own. If you are interested in Bear and/or Blue, please fill out an application at animalrescueproject.org or visit us at the rescue! They do not need to go together and would be perfectly happy finding separate homes. <br/><br/>This dog has been at ARP since: 4/16/26<br/><br/>-<br/><br/>The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to providing the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues, and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.<br/><br/>Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for both the approved adopter and the pet.<br/><br/>Please understand that these animals are still new to us, and their needs and requirements can change at any time as we learn more about them. We will try our best to get their information updated online as soon as possible.<br/><br/>All dogs and puppies are given a general check-up when they enter our program. They receive medication to remove any intestinal parasites (worms), fleas, and ticks they may have. Dogs greater than six months of age are checked for heartworm. If heartworm positive, The Animal Rescue Project treats the disease. Dogs and puppies receive all age-appropriate vaccinations for distemper, and dogs greater than four months of age are also vaccinated for rabies in compliance with State of Michigan laws. All dogs are also microchipped.<br/><br/>Most dogs and older puppies are spayed or neutered before adoption. In the case of puppies not old enough to be safely sterilized, a $50 deposit is required at the time of adoption and is refunded to the adopter upon proof of sterilization.<br/><br/>The Animal Rescue Project requires every adopter to establish an active relationship with a veterinarian no later than 10 days after adoption. Adopters will receive a plan for routine veterinary care at the time of adoption and are expected to work with their veterinarian to complete the plan.
