Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello. My name is Bubba. I'm around 1 year old and I weigh about 70 lbs.
I somehow made my way into a "rescue" who had adopted me out to someone. The lady who adopted me really liked me, but I had seperation anxiety. Her dad took me in when it didn't work out with her. He really tried his best. He said I was an absolutely amazing dog when he was home, but he wasn't home all the time and I would bust out of the crates. Granted, they are not heavy duty crates, but either way, I kept getting out and it was just too much for everyone. Said "rescue" that I came from wouldn't take me back, so he surrendered me here to the pound where I can hopefully find an understanding, patient family with time to spend exercising and training me.
I really am a wonderful dog. I am shy at first with new people, especially here in the pound environment, but I come around within a few minutes.
I love going for walks and running around to play.
I get along well with other dogs, though I can come on a little too strong and I can be a bit too much for other dogs, especially if they don't know me yet. I really, really love playing with other dogs. I need a sturdy playmate with a lot of energy to match my own.
I am housebroken, but when I busted out of my crate I would have accidents in the house.
Basically, I need my new folks to have a heavy duty crate to keep me in when they go away to keep both me, and their belongings safe while they're away. Once I learn that I cannot bust out of my cage, I stop trying. I don't try to get out of my kennel here at thr pound anymore. Once I learned that it wouldn't budge, I gave up and now I am just fine with the confinement.
I am truly a very nice dog, I just lack training and confidence.
If you think you might be a good match for me, please consider adding me to your family.
Our adoption fee is $120.00. The adoption fee must be paid in CASH. We are unable to accept personal checks or credit/debit cards for adoption fees. ALL dogs/puppies adopted from our shelter will receive their parvo distemper vaccine, bordetella vaccine, rabies vaccine (if aged at 12 weeks or older), be dewormed with a 3 day course of panacur dewormer, be microchipped, receive their current Ohio dog license and will be spayed or neutered. ALL DOGS/PUPPIES WILL BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED unless a health issue prohibits the surgery from being performed. Not all dogs posted for adoption are spayed/ neutered yet. If you're driving a long distance to adopt, please verify that the vetting process has been completed and dog you're interested in adopting is still available for adoption. The above mentioned vetting is all included in your adoption fee. The adoption fee and what is included in the adoption fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE.
Adoptions MUST be done at the pound and in person as there is paperwork to fill out and an adoption contract that must be signed by the adopter. This means you must be willing to travel to our shelter to adopt.
IF the dog you're interested in adopting has medical conditions or injuries which require medical treatment, we ask that you help with the medical bills so we can continue to help the dogs coming in who need additional vet care.
We are a county run shelter, therefore we cannot control our intake or the health or behavior of the dogs that come in to our shelter.
Although we try our hardest to place all of our adoptable dogs, there are certain circumstances in which any dog in our care could be euthanized at any time and without further notice (IE: sudden untreatable medical condition or injury, temperament or behavioral problems which may not be apparent when the dog first arrives, lack or space, etc.), therefore all dogs at our shelter should be considered urgent. The adoption of a more highly adoptable dog will mean more time for the less adoptable dog in the kennel next to him!
Shelter hours are: Monday-Friday: 8 am- 4 pm
Saturday: 9 am- 12 pm.
The pound is CLOSED to the public on Sunday.
There is nobody in the office on Saturday and Sunday, so therefore we are unable to answer or return phone calls over the weekend.
Can't adopt a dog? We would love to have more volunteers who are able to spend time with our dogs! The dogs LOVE going for walks and the socialization and exercise helps make the dogs more adoptable.
