About me: Zeb and Zena are a bonded pair! They are used to living in a home with a fenced yard to run around in, so they would love to have that again. They are not a fan of children and will growl at them, so no kids for them please! They also do get nervous around strangers and take a moment to come around, but once they do they are super sweet. They love attention, but they would prefer to come to you and sit on your lap and not to be picked up. Since they have been in the shelter, they will need a few weeks to decompress in a new home. This means establishing good routines to relearn their potty manners in a new place. If you feel your home is a nice calm place without little kids, these guys would be a fan! Please fill out an adoption application through our website animalrescueproject.org. An inquiry through Petfinder is not the same thing.

The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to providing 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 both the approved adopter and the 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 their information 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 puppies 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 upon 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 veterinarian to complete the plan.
