🎃 From trash to treasured! 🧡

Sweet Ruffles came into our care after being found left in a crate next to the trash. After being spayed, shaved, and brought up to date on all her medical care and prevention, this brave girl finally got her fresh start.

Yesterday, she went up for adoption… and this morning, she went HOME! 🥹✨ Ruffles will be spending Halloween snuggled up with her forever family instead of in a crate, and we couldn’t be happier for her.

Happy forever, Ruffles — you’re proof that every dog deserves a second chance. 🐾🎃🧡

Everybody knows Roscoe. ❤️
He’s the dog everyone falls for — staff, volunteers, visitors — you name it. Roscoe has spent the last 97 days at MACS spreading love to anyone who crossed his path. Dogs? Loves them. Cats? Never met one, but he was sure he’d be friends. People of all ages? Couldn’t get enough of them.
He’s been to every adoption event, joined in on doggy day outs, and kept showing the world what a good boy he is.Little did he know that this past Friday, after his K9 Turbo shelter break, he’d be heading off to meet a family — and their dog — to see how things went. 💛

Well, they went perfectly. Yesterday, they made it official! Roscoe now has a forever family and a canine sibling who looks just like him and is already showing him the ropes.
After 97 days of waiting, our best boy is finally home. 🐾💙
Thank you to his new family for giving Roscoe the life and love he’s always deserved.

Meet Honey — our 7-week-old fighter. 🐾💛

Sweet Honey came into our care after being attacked by a stray dog. At just 7 weeks old, this tiny mixed-breed pup has already shown more strength and love than we could ever imagine. Despite her pain, she’s done nothing but shower our team with kisses.

Right now, Honey is undergoing surgery to repair her injured eye — and we’re doing everything we can to give her the healthy, happy future she deserves. 💔

But we need your help now.

This is what your donations make possible — lifesaving medical care, safe shelter, and second chances for animals who have nowhere else to turn. We can’t do it without you.

🐾 Donate with the button below or on our website to help Honey and other animals like her:

🐾☀️ We love a good Doggy Day Out! ☀️🐾

Last week, our friends at Ad Adapted came by and took three of our lucky adoptable dogs — Shelby, Riley, and Rex — on a fun-filled adventure to Belle Isle! 🌳🐕

They had the time of their lives soaking up the sunshine, exploring, and enjoying a much-needed break from the shelter. 💚

Community support like this means the world to us and our animals. These outings give our dogs a chance to relax, show off their true personalities, and remind them what it feels like to just be a dog. 🥰

And as a bonus, one of the amazing Ad Adapted volunteers fell in love with one of our cats — and took him home! 🐾🐱💛

We’re so grateful for partnerships like this and can’t wait to have the AdAdapted, Inc team back again soon!

You’ve seen so many of our posts about our girl Riley — the one who struggled in the shelter environment and was often overlooked because she was vocal in her kennel. But outside those walls, she’s a whole different dog! 💛

Everyone who knows Riley knows her love for tennis balls 🎾 and her big heart. She recently went to K9 Turbo Training for a shelter break and did amazing! She also had a Doggy Day Out with AdAdapted, Inc and some of her adoptable friends and showed just how wonderful she truly is.

Yesterday, we took a chance and brought Riley to our adoption event at PetSmart— no crate, just Riley being Riley. And guess what? She didn’t go back to the shelter afterward… she went to a foster-to-adopt home! 🥹💚

Go shine in a home environment like we always knew you could, Riley. Let’s all keep our paws and fingers crossed that this foster turns into forever — because her foster parents are already hoping for the same thing. 💫
