My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tyson was selected to be one of Friendship's Prison Dogs. He has been in training for several months at the Grafton Correctional Institute and is now a proud Prison Graduate. He has been trained in obedience, basic commands, manners, proper leash walking and house training. Tyson is back at Friendship waiting to find his forever home.

Take a look at Tyson! He's a super cute 6 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Shepherd mix. Tyson was adopted from a rescue in Texas. His family abandoned him. His new owners moved to Ohio with him, but are currently living with family and cannot keep him. This handsome boy is a lover! He lived with another dog and likes other dogs, but needs to be the dominant one. Tyson isn't that into toys but likes ropes to chew. He likes a long walk or a car ride. He is a mellow guy except when it comes to cats. NO CATS!! Tyson is house trained and has manners in the home too. Before going to be trained his cage behavior wasn't the greatest because he didn't like being in a kennel. It's not known how his behavior will be once he returns. Once out of his kennel, Tyson is a sweetheart!

If you have kids and/or another dog in your family and are interested in adopting a Friendship dog please bring them with you for a meet and greet. No appointment is necessary. Stop by anytime during regular business hours.

All dogs receive one or more vaccinations, a basic veterinary examination, are wormed, heartworm tested and spayed or neutered. Dogs 3 months and older are micro-chipped.
