She gravitated right away to my husband! Although, we should have checked out a few dogs before deciding, we said yes to adopting her! far from perfect match.

It was -1 degrees the other day, so frantically i found rescue groups in Michigan and I started calling to advocate for them. The lady that answered the phone was nice and resourceful. He would need to send the inquiry via online and get them to Adopt-a-Pet, but that never happened because he said the mom moved them the next day. I'm a bit upset because it's evident that the mom should be fixed, but it could be that no one in his neighborhood is aware of the practice. Even though this place wasn't able to help, but they were very helpful and sincere. I hope that the little family is safe from bad people, wildlife, cars, and the rigid weather. While I have 2 cat condos and 2 heated beds for the stray cats that I help feed (all fixed), I can't help but think about the others who aren't so lucky.

The selection here, as far as food, toys, litter, etc., is top notch. The store cat Leo is cool as hell and we were lucky enough to stop in for his birthday celebration/sale. My girlfriend and I work in Ann Arbor but live in Dearborn, and we decided to make the trip out on a weekend just to catch the sale, because not only was everything 15% off (cat products) , but the first fifty customers received goody bags. As expected, the goody bags came packed full of cat stuff that I know my cats are going to love. We are now at the point that my cats actually recognize the Pet Emporium bags and will try to sneak towards the bag and try to pull out various treats and toys.

So having a pet companion is important. Not to mention, great inspiration for drawings. In the year and a half, since our dog passed away my wife and I would venture out to the Humane Society just to pet animals. It is a beautiful place. Very clean. Well-maintained. Filled with caring volunteers and staff. You can see the love when they talk about the animals to you. First, we pet a puppy. And then asked to see a dog my wife had found on their website. Her name was Jewel. She was a nervous one and a half year-old terrier. Who had kind of a rough way. The puppy was an easy answer, but Jewel stole our hearts. The agency was honest about her issues and offered us a test drive. For two weeks we would take Jewel. The Society would give us everything that we needed to care for her. Food, bed, toys, medication. We signed up. We took her home. We worked out the kinks and learned her. She is a loving dog who just needed a little extra time and care. I will always recommend going to the Humane Society or any facility that offers rescues. She may not be a puppy, but she has a lot of love to give. And the Capital Area Humane Society is simply outstanding. We may come back again to get her a friend. But for now, we cannot say enough about this experience. Good form.

Do not trust Livingston County Animal Shelter with any animal's life. They killed a sweet,…read moreadoptable dog who was nothing but gentle and loving. I made the huge mistake of bringing a stray dog here. After not being claimed and he became adoptable, I fostered him and provided photos, notes, and a foster report card recommending the right kind of home for him. None of it was shared or considered in his adoption. His adopters returned him after a week with false claims of "aggression." I immediately tried to contact the shelter and offered to adopt him if his life was at risk. My calls and emails were ignored. Nearly a week later, they told me he was "safe with a rescue," which was a lie--they euthanized him three days after they claimed he was safe. Even the shelter admitted they never saw aggression. They chose to believe lies and killed an innocent dog simply because someone wanted their money back. On top of this, most of the staff are rude and unhelpful (with the exception of one woman), and despite always having multiple people behind the counter, they rarely answer the phone or respond to emails. This shelter does not act in the best interest of the animals. A dog's life was cut short because of their negligence, dishonesty, and misplaced priorities. I will never trust this shelter again, and I pray no other animal suffers the same fate.

Okay, I'm a bit biased, but APB is a truly great place from which to adopt a dog. APB is a volunteer-based foster care network in the Mid-Michigan area. Because their dogs live in foster homes, their foster "parents" are very knowledgeable about their personalities and the type of household that would work best for the pooches. My dog came crate-trained and completely housebroken, and she even knew basic commands.

I was emphatic with my mother to not get these cats because the day would come soon that they would not be able to take care of them, this shelter should have NEVER allowed my parents to adopt because of their age and their health but Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption thought it was a good idea. The cats have suffered neglect under my mother's care for at least a year as my mother's health was failing and now 4 years later my stepfather is dead and my mother is not able to take care of herself anymore let alone two cats and Grosse Pointe Anima Adoption refuses to take them back saying they are full, and they are saying they might have room in 2 months. I CAN'T KEEP THESE CATS but they don't care, it's not their problem anymore. They don't really give a damn at all about getting these cats good home all they care is getting these animals out of their care and then they will wash their hands of it. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL
