Kermit is a good-natured 2 year old bully breed who still has a little puppy energy. He is currently living in a foster home and gets along well with the other energetic dog in the house, but has shown a tendency to chase the cat. Kermit has made great strides gaining confidence and being comfortable traveling in the car and going to new places. He loves walks and does very well on a leash with a pinch collar. He is housebroken and rings the doggy bell to go outside. He is working on commands and manners and is learning quickly. He does well in a crate at night or while no one is home. Kermit would do well in a household that can offer him daily exercise, plenty of chew toys, and a fenced in yard. Given his size, Kermit does best with older children.

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.

Adoptions are NOT first come, first served! We seek to choose the best fit for the approved adopter and pet.

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.

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.

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.

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.
