MEET COOKIE
READY FOR ADOPTION
This lovable 2-year-old is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and microchipped—ready to join your family!
Cookie has a heart full of love, especially for kids, and she gets along wonderfully with cats and male dogs. She needs a 6-foot fully fenced yard to play in because she absolutely loves to romp around! And she’s just as crazy about cuddling and snuggling up with her favorite humans.
She’s looking for that special someone who understands bully breeds and has experience with them, so she can thrive and become the best dog she can be.
Let’s come together and help this precious pup find her perfect match! If you or anyone you know is ready to open their heart and home to Cookie, fill out the application below.
MEET LAYLA
MEET JULIANNA
MEET COOKIE
READY FOR ADOPTION
We're on the lookout for a special foster-to-adopt home for our gentle giant, Layla! This stunning 73-pound Pit Cane Corso mix has a heart as big as her size, and she's ready to bring her boundless love and affection into a forever home.
Layla was found abandoned and cruelly chained up, covered in over 30 bite wounds from her painful past. But despite the trauma she's endured, she is healing beautifully—both physically and emotionally. Now, she's eagerly awaiting the chance to experience the warmth and comfort of a loving foster-to-adopt home.
This sweet girl is house-trained, up-to-date on her vaccinations, and will be spayed soon. She needs a fully fenced yard (at least 6 feet high) and would do best in a home with older kids (12+ due to her size). Once Layla is spayed, we can finalize the adoption and make her a permanent part of your family.
Layla has so much love to give—now she just needs the right foster-to-adopt home to help her continue her journey to happiness. Could that be you? Reach out today to give Layla the fresh start she deserves, and prepare to fall head over heels for this gentle giant! ❤️🐾

She’s crate trained, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and will be spayed soon. She’s ready for a home where she can keep blossoming, exploring, and loving her people with her whole fluffy heart.

Cardie is a sweet, snuggly pup who’s ready to find her forever home! She absolutely loves to cuddle—whether it’s with adults or kids—and is always up for some playtime with other dogs, big or small. She hasn’t been around cats.
Cardie is food-motivated, which makes training a breeze! She already knows how to sit and give paw, and her potty training is going great. She’s also crate trained and settling into a good routine.
This affectionate girl thrives on attention and would love a family who enjoys snuggles, play, and a loyal companion.
If you’re looking for a loving pup with a gentle heart and playful spirit, Cardie could be the perfect match!

!!!ADOPTING PENDING!!!
Meet Mama Honey – A Sweetheart Ready for Her Second Chance!
This resilient 2-year-old girl has already been a hero—rescued from an abandoned building in Detroit, she lovingly cared for her seven puppies despite the odds. Now that all her babies have found their forever homes, it’s Honey’s turn to get the love and security she truly deserves!
- About Honey:
- Breed: Mixed breed, around 35-40 lbs
- Personality: Playful, affectionate, and full of love
- Great with kids (10+ due to her excitement level)
- Dog-friendly (did well with three foster dogs)
- Unknown with cats
- Prefers her own space while eating
- The Ideal Home for Honey:
Honey is heartworm positive, but don’t let that scare you away! We will fully cover the cost of her treatment and all medical expenses before adoption. During this time, she’ll need a calm, stable environment—ideally a pet-free home while she heals.
She might bark a bit when meeting new people but give her 5 minutes and you become her new playmate and best bud.
Be a Hero for Honey!
We’re looking for a foster-to-adopt family who can give Honey the love and care she needs.

🐾💥HEY, I’M DAISY! WHO’S READY TO PLAY?!💥🐾
Once upon a time, I was a stray just trying to make it on my own—until one of the amazing foster humans at Haven of Love Dog Rescue scooped me up and showed me what love, snacks, and toys are all about. Now I’m one year old, healthy, and ready to zoom my way into my forever home!
I’m a 30-pound Puggle mix with big dog energy and a need for speed. I love to run, wrestle, and chase anything that squeaks. I dream of having a medium-to-large dog sibling who can keep up with me in a fully fenced yard—zoomies are serious business, people. I’m a little too rough for small dogs or cats… not because I’m mean, but because I think everyone wants to play like a linebacker.
Here’s the rundown from yours truly:
✅ I LOVE other dogs (as long as they’re ready to rumble!)
✅ I adore kids—especially the 8+ crowd who can match my energy
✅ Crate trained? Absolutely. I’ll chill in there like a champ
✅ Potty trained? You bet! But if I’m not crated, I need a potty break every 5–6 hours so I don’t have to cross my legs
✅ Obsessed with toys? Uh, is that even a question? YES. ALL OF THEM.
✅ Fast? I’m basically a blur in dog form 🏃♀️💨
Now let’s talk figure—I’m rockin’ my ideal weight right now (30 lbs of pure power), and while I love snacks (who doesn’t?), I’m counting on you to help me keep my curves in check so I can stay fabulous AND fast.
I’m looking for:
🔹 A fully fenced yard to unleash the zoom
🔹 A playful pup sibling who likes to roughhouse
🔹 Fun, active humans who are ready to be followed everywhere… especially if you have toys

BEING FOSTERED THRU HW TREATMENT
🏡 Foster or Foster-to-Adopt Needed: Sweet Tammy is Ready for Love! 🐾
Tammy is a 2-year-old Staffordshire Terrier with a heart as big as her adorable smile. This little sweetheart was found abandoned in Rouge Park and is now safe with Haven of Love—but what she really needs is a loving home to rest, recover, and thrive in.
Tammy is dog-friendly, affectionate, and has an irresistibly cuddly personality. She’s already spayed and is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm, so she needs a calm, supportive environment where she can relax and heal.
Whether you're ready to foster or want to open your home as a foster-to-adopt, Tammy will return the favor with tail wags, couch snuggles, and endless love.
🐶 Dog-friendly
❤️ Super sweet and loves to cuddle
🩺 Heartworm positive – will need a calm place to rest during treatment
✅ All expenses covered by the rescue
Tammy’s ready to be your little shadow and best friend. Could you be her hero?

MEET MAVERICK
ADOPTION PENDING
Meet Maverick — a 6 year-old Pomsky mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart! This handsome boy loves to “talk,” play tug-of-war, catch, and go for car rides. He’s great on a leash and would happily spend his day running and playing in the yard.
Maverick enjoys roughhousing with his doggie friends, but he does need the occasional reminder to keep it gentle. Because of this, he’d do best in a home with a confident, playful dog around his size or larger. He’s also more comfortable around older kids, as fast and unpredictable movement can make him nervous.
This smart guy is doing great with house manners — he’ll let you know when he needs to go outside by barking or ringing bells. After a full day of fun, he’s happy to snuggle up on the couch (even with the cat!) before heading to his crate for a good night’s sleep.
Maverick would love a calm foster or adoptive home without young children, where he can fully relax and thrive.
