🎉 It's Dogust 1st! 🐾❤

Today we celebrate the unofficial birthday of all shelter and rescue dogs. Who needs a birth certificate when you’ve got a heart bursting with love, bounce-back spirit, and endless thankful snugs?

Right now, dogs all over Southeast Michigan—and right here in our rescue—are waiting for that second chance. Some were lost. Some surrendered. Every single one deserves love, a squishy bed to hog, and a human to boss around—forever.

If you've ever been loved by a rescue dog, you already know:
They don’t bring a resume, but they’re applying for the job of Best Friend—and trust us, they’re overqualified. ❤

🎁 The best birthday gift you could give?

Your next best friend might be closer than you think. 🐾

🌪️ The need is overwhelming. 💔

Every day, we’re flooded with urgent pleas to help dogs in desperate situations—abandoned in backyards, surrendered by heartbroken families facing housing crises, or found wandering the streets hungry and scared.

We want to help them all. But the truth is—we can’t save any more dogs unless we have foster homes to welcome them.

🏡 Fostering saves lives. It’s temporary for you—but life-changing for them.

With inflation and housing costs pushing more families into crisis, shelters and rescues across the country are drowning. We are too. The only lifeline we have is you. Yes, you.

If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could help,” this is your sign. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need a little space, a little patience, and a lot of love. Pups, adult dogs, seniors all need help.

We’ll provide the supplies, medical care, and support. You provide the safe place to land. ❤️

🌼 It’s Butters 🌼

Our itty bitty pitty is sunshine in a dog suit — and she’s ready to stretch out in your yard and your heart 💛

Butters is sweet, silly, and LOVES soaking up the sun (especially near some Black-Eyed Susans 🌻). She’s petite in size but big on snuggles, and would love some fun humans to call her own.

Ready to bring home a little buttercup?

✨ Meet Jake — a 9-pound sweetheart with a gentle soul who’s learning what love really means. After a rough start in life, he’s slowly discovering the joys of play, friendship, and trust. Jake needs a patient, kind heart to help him bloom into the happy dog he’s meant to be. Could that be you? 💛

🐶Can you guess what breeds make up this adorable little guy? (We’ll reveal in the comments!) 💛
