Homer's Story

Breed: Pit mix<br/>Age: 10 months (as of 1/19/26)<br/>Gender: Neutered Male<br/>Weight: approx. 60lbs<br/>Energy Level: High<br/>Adoption Fee: $100<br/><br/><br/>Am I good with:<br/>Cats: Yes<br/>Dogs: Yes (meet and greet required)<br/>Children: Yes, older/durable kiddos!<br/><br/><br/>About me: Homer is an incredibly sweet and loyal boy who just wants to be close to his people. He’s full of love and affection, eager to please, and even knows a few basic tricks. After being dumped, Homer developed separation anxiety, he gets nervous and will bark to express it. He also can escape a normal wire kennel and if left unattended in the home/car he can be destructive, so he will need a strong crate that will keep him safe. He is also on medication that will need to be continued to help with his anxiety. Please talk to ARP staff to learn more about Homer, he truly is a wonderful dog who deserves a forever home.<br/><br/><br/>This dog has been at ARP since: 1/31/26<br/><br/>–<br/><br/>The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to the best possible veterinary care for the pets it rescues and it is looking for adopters who will be similarly committed.<br/><br/><br/>Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet.<br/><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 them updated online as soon as possible.<br/><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 pups 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/><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 with proof of sterilization.<br/><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 vet to complete the plan.
