Billy Bob

My story

Name: Billy Bob Breed Guess: Treeing Walker Coonhound/Beagle Mix Age: 4 years Gender: Neutered Male Weight: 35 pounds Children: 18+ Cats: No Dogs: No Adoption fee: $125 Hello, I'm Billy Bob. I love getting attention from people, especially when they brush me or give me lots of pets. I like to go on long walks where I can smell all of the amazing things around. My nose can take me far,especially when there are food smells. I'm a good dog but I have some behavioral issues when it is time to wake up; please talk to the staff about these special needs. My forever home should be prepared to use a crate with me. I've been at the ARP since 11/11/24 and am currently located at the shelter. The Animal Rescue Project (www.animalrescueproject.org) is committed to 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 the approved adopter and 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 them 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 pups 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 with 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 vet to complete the plan.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Billy Bob, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
