About Ladybug (Rottweiler) in Clinton Township

Ladybug is waiting for you at Macomb County Animal Shelter and Animal Control in Clinton Township, MI 48036. Meet Ladybug—affectionately known as Bug—a soulful 3-year-old Rottweiler with a heart as big as her adorably boxy nose. Her journey hasn’t been the easiest, but that’s exactly what makes her story so special.Bug came to us as a transfer. Something about her quiet presence and gentle eyes made us want to give her more—more time, more care, and more love. So we brought her to MCAC to give her just that. At first, she was a little unsure of the world around her, keeping her feelings tucked safely inside. But with patience, kindness, and a lot of heart, Bug has started to blossom into the loving, affectionate girl we knew she could be.Once you’ve earned her trust, you’ll discover her sweetest secret: she’s a kiss-giver for life. The kind of dog who bonds deeply, who looks at you like you’re her whole world, and who will quietly lean into you just to be close. Those moments feel earned—and they’re worth everything.Ladybug is considered a special adoption, meaning she’s looking for someone with prior Rottweiler experience who understands her breed and is willing to go at her pace. Meet-and-greets will be by appointment only and extended to approved adopters. We strongly encourage multiple visits so she has the chance to get comfortable and build that all-important connection—just like she has with us.She’s up-to-date on all vaccines and preventatives, already spayed, and currently undergoing treatment for heartworm. Because of this, she will be placed in a foster-to-adopt home so we can help guide her through the remainder of her care. This includes two scheduled injections and about 30 days of follow-up medication—we’ll be with you every step of the way.Bug has shown positive interactions with other dogs so far, but while she continues healing, we believe she’ll thrive best in a calm, quiet home. She’s looking for adopters who
