Michigan Doodle Rescue Connect is primarily an owner surrender rescue.
​We know that you may find yourself with a dog that just isn't matching you and you want to be sure that your dog is not flipped on the internet or properly vetted and matched.
We follow our dogs for life and properly evaluate them, vet them and get them to a matching environment.
We provide vet care and a home environment. Visit ABOUT THE MDRC RANCH for more information.

"WE ARE SO THANKFUL FOR MICHIGAN DOODLE RESCUE CONNECT. UNFORTUNATELY, OUR PUP NEEDED VERY CONSISTENT TRAINING AND FAST! ALSO, A HOME THAT HAS OTHER DOGS AND COULD BETTER MEET HER NEEDS. HER BREEDER WASN'T THE GREATEST AND WE WERE UNAWARE OF THAT WHEN WE GOT THE PUP. IT WAS A VERY HEARTBREAKING DECISION, BUT THE BEST DECISION TO LET THE RESCUE TAKE HER AND DO WHAT WAS NEEDED.
​THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOUR RESCUE IS A BLESSING!"- Nick

"I was working more and my dog was starting to show signs of needing more from me. I wanted my dog safe and didn't want to place him anywhere. I called to talk to Nana and she had me fill out a form. She talked to me and I felt so comfortable. It was the best thing I did for him. I get updates and see he is thriving. "-Shelly

"Our dog was very sick. I spoke to MDRC and they could help him. He got medical care right away and the surgery he needed. I love seeing his updates." Greg & Laura

"I was moving out of state and I am so thankful I found MDRC. Nana helped me and made sure it was a good choice. I will be working full time and I am recently single. I no longer have the help I once had. It was so heartbreaking but I text Nana and I get an update. I know she is so happy."-Lewis

I never wanted to give my dog away. I got into a situation and needed help. MDRC provided a safe place for my dog. I can email them anytime and I get a photo update. I like that part. Makes me see she is doing so good. I wouldn't go anywhere else. -Mike

I am a senior and my puppy was more than I could handle. MDRC picked up my puppy and I can call anytime or email and found out how he is doing. That helps me sleep at night. -Ruth. B


"THIS WAS NOT EXPECTED. I MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE WHEN I STARTED LOOKING AT RESCUES. MDRC HAS BEEN GIVING ME UPDATES AND I AM ABLE TO SEE THAT MY DOG IS LIVING THE BEST LIFE EVER. IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING SURRENDERING YOUR DOG, THEY MADE ME VERY COMFORTABLE WITH MY CHOICE AND I FOLLOW THIS RESCUE. THEY ARE DOING GREAT THINGS." - KELLY

"MY DOG SUFFERED FROM A SKIN CONDITION THAT WAS MAKING HIS HAIR FALL OUT. MDRC MADE IT EASY FOR ME TO SURRENDER. THEY PROVIDE ME WITH UPDATES WHEN I ASK FOR THEM AND I CAN SEE HE IS THRIVING. -TRISH & MICHAEL L.

"FOR FINANCIAL REASONS, I COULDN'T TAKE CARE OF MY DOG. IT WAS HEARTBREAKING BUT I GET UPDATES AND LOVE SEEING HIM GET THE CARE AND TRAINING HE NEEDS." - KATE B.

"I wasn't sure I wanted to surrender. It was extremely hard on me but I was thinking about how he would be getting all of the medical attention that he needed. MDRC was compassionate and patient. It took me a couple weeks to decide. I am so happy seeing him live a BEAUTIFUL life. I get updates and know that he is loved." Sue
