UPDATE!!!! Thank you all so much for sharing and applying. Sweet Pothos found his family ❤️❤️

POTHOS IS IN NEED OF A HOME ❤️

We are sorry & sad to report sweet Pothos was returned after barely any time in his new home. This pup cannot catch a break.

Pothos loves his crate & sleeps very well at night. He also really enjoys walking on his leash & playing fetch & is working on sit. He will keep himself entertained with toys & chews. He is a very easygoing pup compared to many 🤣 He also loves water!

Pothos is 3.5 - 4 months, neutered, microchipped & fully vaccinated. He is a Detroit special mix of about 10 breeds.

Derrick is STILL looking for his home 😭😭😭

I’m not sure how this baby hasn’t found his furever home yet, but he hasn’t. Please share!

Derrick is a great dog, so smart, so adorable. Almost fully potty trained, crate trained & using potty bells. He is 11/12 weeks & is about 13 pounds.

He really would benefit from a yard and another dog to play with, but he would be okay as an only dog too. He loves all people and dogs & is honestly an awesome, sweet puppy ❤️🐾

Last winter little Erika was left alone outside - she was very underweight, filthy & confused as to why she was left outside to live in the freezing cold as a 5 month old pup. She was scooped up by Dog Aide & transferred over to us.

Erika, now known as Roxy, was adopted by a wonderful & committed family who has completed puppy & dog training with her, takes her camping in their camper, & has a big yard for playing with her sweet dog sibling.

And yesterday was her 1st birthday party - complete with a dog cake & party hats. Roxy is one of the lucky ones thanks to sooooo many! If Roxy had not been rescued, her life at age one would likely look very different today.

Happy 1st Birthday, Roxy! 🥳❤️🐾

08/16/2024

Wow! Once again thank you to everyone who sent in puppy food!

Just to name a few, we received deliveries from:

We are so thankful to all who adopt & to all who continue to support animal agencies ❤️🐾 This puppy food was a huge relief for us!

08/14/2024

Oh no! Someone’s pretty shirt (purple / black) & pants (green) got shipped with their puppy food order! I imagine it was in your cart & when you checked out, it shipped with the puppy food to our address.

If this is yours, please send us a message & we will mail these to you!

Thank you!

08/13/2024

🚨 We are down to our last few cans of puppy food! 🚨

We always have puppies in our care who need puppy food to help with proper eating & development, along with to give meds.

We know times are tight & tough for so many; for us, donations, adoptions & interest is overall down, which has a ripple effect on the animals in so many ways.

If you are able, canned puppy food is at the top of our wishlist (purina pro plan puppy chicken & rice!).

We are putting our wishlist link in the comments! Thank you so much for always supporting our animals ❤️🐾

Sweet Betty is still looking for her fur-ever home & we don’t know why?! 💔

She is a whole lot of cuteness in a small package! Betty is around 6 months old and only 25 lbs. She is looking for a patient & gentle person/family to give her the forever home she deserves.

Betty had been sleeping and hanging out on a porch that wasn't hers before being rescued by Detroit Animal Care and Control. She was sweet from the beginning, but would pancake crawl to get pets and snuggles.

When Betty came to POET, she went to an amazing foster home where she has made SO much progress! She loves people & toys!

If you would like the opportunity to watch this beautiful girl's continued transformation, please apply: www.poetanimalrescue.org

You will be rewarded with loyalty, love, and the satisfaction of knowing your kindness made a huge difference in Betty's life! 💜🐾
