🌊🐾 Meet Cortez! 🐾🌊
At 6 years old and 64 pounds, Cortez is the perfect mix of adventure buddy and loyal best friend! 💙 This handsome boy is absolutely obsessed with the water—whether it’s a pool, lake, or any place he can splash around, Cortez is ready to dive right in! 🏖️🐶
Not only is he a water-loving superstar, but he’s also incredibly smart and eager to learn. 🍖✨ Cortez is very food motivated, which makes training a breeze! He already knows commands like sit and shake and is always excited to show off his skills for a tasty treat. 🐾🤝
Cortez is also a gentleman on walks and walks wonderfully on a leash. 🚶♂️🐕 Whether you’re heading out for a neighborhood stroll or exploring new trails, he’ll happily be by your side.
When it comes to other dogs, Cortez would do best with slow and proper introductions to any potential canine siblings to help set him up for success. ❤️
This sweet boy has so much love to give and is ready to find a family that will appreciate his goofy personality, intelligence, and love for all things water. 🌊☀️ If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s always up for an adventure and a cuddle afterward, Cortez might just be your perfect match! 🏡🐾💙
Come meet Cortez and help him find the forever home he deserves!! Located at Oakland County animal shelter in Pontiac MI.

✨COCOA✨
2.5 years old • 56lbs 🤎
Cocoa has been sitting in the shelter since December after being surrendered because the person she loved could no longer care for her. 💔 She lost her home, her routine, and the comfort of being someone’s girl overnight… and now she spends her days waiting and hoping someone will finally choose her again. 🥺
Despite everything, Cocoa is still SO full of love. She is incredibly sweet with people and absolutely lights up when she gets attention. She’s very food motivated 🍖 which makes her eager to learn and so much fun to work with. She loves showing off for snacks and gets the cutest little zoomies when she’s happy — it’s impossible not to smile watching her bounce around. 🐾✨
Cocoa would do best as the only dog or with VERY slow introductions to other dogs. She just needs someone patient who will help her feel safe and understood. 🤍
The shelter is no place for a girl like Cocoa. Every day she waits behind kennel doors while other dogs leave, wondering when it’ll finally be her turn. She deserves cozy naps, yummy treats, zoomies in the yard, and someone who will never give up on her again. 🏡
Please give Cocoa the happy ending she’s been waiting for. 🤎🐶 Located at Oakland County animal shelter in Pontiac MI.

Huxley is thriving in his foster home, but heartbreakingly, no one has applied for him yet. 💔
He’s doing everything right and still waiting for someone to choose him. Please don’t let him be overlooked.
I call this handsome, shiny coated boy Cody, and I also call him the wonder dog. I wonder how it's possible for a dog that's been in the shelter over 7 months (most all of his puppy life) to adapt totally to our family life in a few hours. Cody is the whole package. He is calm, well behaved in the house, good in the car, is not a barker, is house trained, is an affectionate couch potato, and is a very considerate doggy playmate. I have two chill dogs and he was immediately great with them. He just wants to be near you. This is your laid back hang out buddy!
He's about 1 1/2, and about 60 pounds. He is listed as a mixed breed/terrier. Not being gone long hours, and having a fenced yard would be ideal, because he has spent most of his life alone and cooped up. A doggie playmate and/or kids would amazing. This is an all around great family dog!
