Luckily, This Loving Dog Was Rescued From Detroit Dog Fighting Ring!

Apple Jack is his name, a 3-year old tan pup, who is so loving and friendly. You would never guess his back story was one of abuse and terror.

God bless animal rescue folks who located the sickos who were running a dog fighting ring in Detroit. How anyone can do that sort of thing is beyond me. But Apple Jack was saved from his horrendous situation and is hoping to find a secure, loving home after coming to Grand Rapids.

👇BELOW: AMAZING DOG STORY OF THE TALLEST AND SMALLEST MEETING👇

Winni from the Humane Society of West Michigan visited our studios with Apple Jack. He was a total sweetie and very chill. He's a happy guy and gives you kisses all the time.

Winni says he is looking for a home where he can probably be the only dog. And because they don't know how he does with cats, a cat-free home is a good idea also. As for children, he may do well with older, respectful children who understand how to give dogs space when they need it. Let's hope Apple Jack finds a good, loving home.

Keeping your pet, dog, cat, up-to-date with their vaccines is so important. But cost can be a factor and some pet owners opt-out hoping their pet will be okay because it's just too expensive.

HERE IS GOOD NEWS!

So, the Humane Society has launched their new Pawblic Health Day program! The shelter offers discounted routine vaccines, testing, preventatives, and microchips for owned dogs and cats, and it's open to all. Their next Pawblic Health Day will be this coming Monday, July 13, from 12-3 PM, at Humane Society of West Michigan, and you can make your appointment today by CLICKING HERE!
