Lola is currently living in a foster home and her foster mom reports the following: Lola loves to play ... with dogs. She’s not completely comfortable with humans yet, although she is working hard at overcoming her caution. Because this little butterscotch and cream puppy has had a rough start to life, she is going to need a quiet, patient home. A buddy, a playful dog, would enrich her life. Lola is house trained, shows no food aggression, doesn’t seem to be a big chewer or barker, sleeps in her bed at night, accepts her crate with ease, and loves to play. She’s about 15 pounds, probably about a year old, has a sturdy little body, is good at running and napping, doesn’t jump on people, and is eager to learn and please. She’s not a cuddle-bug yet, although she desperately wants to be close. Small children would overwhelm her, a noisy home wouldn’t be in her best interest, and anything but patience will be the wrong approach. Life is going to be just ?ne for Little Lola! If you think she could be the one for you, please fill out an application today.

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

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.

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.
