Thanks for sticking around this long.
The month of October welcomes the start of something great for us.

Josie has found a Home! Thank you everyone.

🐾🐾🐾ADULT DOG UP FOR ADOPTION!!! 🐾🐾🐾

Here's a little write up on Josie...

Josie enjoys other dogs and people. She seems to bond to one person but is friendly with everyone she meets. She loves to sleep in her crate at night and snores very loudly when she's there. She likes to chew the Dino bones from Tractor Supply (I split them open with a hatchet so they are more interesting for the dogs), she will play tug with stuffies and she gets the funniest looking zoomies outside! She will gladly get in the truck and go for a ride. She really really enjoys playing with kids and might like small hikes and medium length walks on a leash.

She is currently with my dear friend in North Carolina.

Mrs. Josie has a very generous adoption fee.
She even has had her OFA hip, elbow, and patella’s done. She went good and normal normal. (I can provide proofs)

This sweet gal through no fault of her own was “returned” to me on a co own situation that did not follow through.

She is searching for her forever home on a spay contract.

Andromeda x King
She is 2.5, will be 3 in December.

Please only message if you are SERIOUS, prepared for a new dog, if not local to where the dog is, ready to pay for transport, or be willing to meet, and of already spoken to spouse prior to messaging, Please.

Let’s find her a FOREVER home before the end of June.

EDIT- Mr. Molo is pending a wonderful home. I will allow this family to announce themselves when the time is right! What a special gem they are getting!!!!

I am seeking a special home for Mr. Molo.

I’d love one of my known dog friends to take him , but I know how us purebred people are lol.

Someone with Xolo experience already would be great, but if not then I’m seeking someone very open to learning new knowledge and applying it.

This fella is 10 weeks old tomorrow.
He is a mastiff x Xoloitzcuintle mix. Those are the only breeds inside of his little body.

He has had his first vaccine, and will get his second before he leaves me.

There will be a mandatory contract on him. For neuter and return if said new owner cannot keep him forever.

I am debating on partnering with a Xolo rescue for this guy as I truly just want the best for him.

However I am trying here first.
PM for rehoming fee. For a known person I’m more flexible.

This boy has the typical Xolo demeanor. He is very energetic and chatting, he gets cold easily, has no fear and just wants to be loved , he may be SMALL but he is MIGHTY. He loves to follow you, he is definitely smaller than a general 10 week old puppy. He is probably 6-8lbs. He’s about the size of a tea cup Chihuahua presently. I expect him to at least reach the size of his dad. He could reach the measures of a Mastiff- we do not know!

This little dude comes with a fan base. You must be willing to share his journey with us. This isn’t debatable lol

Let’s find little Molo a great home!
This isn’t easy for me. But my life is taking a different path soon 🤍

I’m sure gunna miss this guy! He goes to his new family today 🤍

Everyone’s first time outside!
We are official 8 weeks and 1 day old.
We are ready for new homes.

Some of us look like moms genes, and some of us look like dad’s genes.

This oops litter has all coat types and colors.

We are located in northern Michigan, Ga***rd area to be specific.

The hairless is currently not on the market as he needs more time with mom and will probably stay till he is 12 weeks of age.

The rest of us just got first vaccines and are ready to rumble.

Excluding the hairless, we are really low on the fee spectrum as we just want goood homes in today’s economy, on mandatory spay and neuter contracts. We are not for breeding of any kind.

These guys have the best oops temperament I could ask for. They gave the calmness of the mastiff, yet the spice of a Xolo.

If I could, 3 of these babies would definitely be staying!!!!

Puppies… puppies… puppies 🐾

Well… after I rescued 13.5 year old Sarge I hired a dog nanny to assist with about an hours time a day to let everyone out and change Sarges diaper if needed while I started at my new job due to a massive time change in routine… I gave the opportunity to a local high schooler who I believed to be inclined. I explained which dogs could and could NOT go out together….

some time later…

Here we are here.

… no mistaking the father here- unfortunately these are Mastiff x Xoloitzcuintli mixed puppies.

Dog nanny - fired.

I had the opportunity to abort the litter per my reproductive vet and I just could not bring myself to do such. Each said puppy will be raised as though they are purebred. Going on contracts to spay and neuter and requiring said babies to come back to me if for any reason said new family cannot keep them.

I do not support the “mixed/doodle” craze. This is NOT what that is. But here we are.

…Enjoy, everyone.

Names are from different cities/villages, and of course the Taj for the Taj Mahal all in India 🇮🇳

There is one hairless not shown- I am unsure if she will pull through or not, she is currently on a lot of TLC, she will come at later time if all goes well!

There is a dramatic size difference between the coated and hairless puppies- and truly the hairless have been really difficult to keep weight on and hydration.

Could use some happy thoughts for those 3🙏🏼
Liver water and goats milk being started for those few today.

The good. The bad. The ugly. - leave it to ACM to speak on it. Lol

In another week and a half, I will start searching for placements for coated, and possibly longer wait time for hairless.

If you are on the hunt for something that was a true accident, is loved as if it wasn’t, and will be a total conversional piece- look no further. You can’t google this mix lol… and it sure won’t happen again!

Planned purebred mastiffs to come in upcoming months.

Happy birthday to the colorful crew. How are you guys 2 years old now?! It went so fast! I am so proud of all of you! 🎂 🥳 🎈

That journey was so long and hard, yet so absolutely worth every waking moment- and let me tell you there were more wakes than sleeps lol 😂

I wish that Peanut 🥜 could of reached this point with all of us. But I am glad to have her sister at the least and see all the others thriving with their families.

Here’s to many more years together!

🎈🥳🎂😊🐾

… “blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog.”

Taking in this boy has changed our life entirely. You know a puppy needs to be let out every few hours, taught “sit, stay, come” along with all else. Has to be fed multiple times a day to sustain proper growth. The whole 9 you know? And everyone shares the journey of the puppy stage, “ohhh would you just look at him/her , aren’t they just so cuteeeee” … but no one talks about this stage.

The senior stage.
The old dog stage.
The all greys stage.
The real golden age stage.

It’s rough. Especially when you venture into a giant breed. They just age so differently compared to a Labrador or even a Chihuahua . They become brittle so fast. So brittle that if the wind blew just right, their frail body will give in and lay down on the spot.

So frail that what may of been walks for hours, turns to only being able to last moments.

They may strain so much to sit down or to get up that they often have an accident on themselves or on what’s around them. - male doggy diapers have sure been our aid with the frequent urination.

They can’t help it.
They can’t help that this once so puppy like body kept up with everything they attempted, now continuously fails them with such minimal effort.
They can’t help that they need to be let out to go to the bathroom just as much almost as that fresh 8 week old puppy so eagerly trying to appease its new owner to delight. They often times are on a handful of medications to be able to complete a day, or battle a senior dog illness.

They can’t help it.

I really encourage you , that if you get a dog, or a pet of any kind , that you do your absolute best to see it through to the end.

Imagine going through so much at such an old age, and having to mend an unsteady heart from such uprooting. A dog this age, this size, this breed; so rarely reaches this faze in life.

He honestly is a prized possession. In the short time he has been within my care, we have done our absolute best to make his limited time as comfortable as possible. These animals love with every ounce they have. They don’t have anything else to offer , but love!

I just want to remind everyone as we edge closer to the end of this holiday season- a dog or an animal period is a true life long commitment.

It’s a bumpy road- but boy is it worth it!

Happy holidays everyone. 🎄
