My story

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

Calling All Cranky Little Dog Lovers!
Meet Peanut.....Sometimes we call him Mr. Crabby Pants.
This adorable chubby came to us as an owner surrender. They gave him up because he hated the husband...Turns out, Peanut hates most everyone....Until he trusts you. Then you are gold....Until he decides your not. 😉 Peanut seems to think the world revolves around him, and it kind of does.
Some cool things about Peanut.
Housebroken/crate trained
Loves car rides.
Is a great office companion.
Good sleeping buddy.
Doesn't mind cats but will growl, bark and might chase.
Loves his person as long as they don't stare at him too much or try to take his picture. He HATES his picture taken.
Weird things about Peanut.
He gets all mad for a second for no apparent reason.
Would rather not be around other dogs.
Likes to follow you into the bathroom.
HATES his picture taken. (weird huh?)
We think Peanut would be a great companion for a single person or cranky dog savvy couple with a quiet lifestyle. Kids are too much for Peanut...He hates them too.
Peanut is approx. 8/9 yrs old and weighs 18 lbs.
He is neutered had a recent dental and is up to date on all his vaccines and testing. His Ohio tag is included with his adoption.
Applications can be found at bchsohio.org or just come to the shelter to pick one up.
Peanut is in foster but meet and greets can easily be arranged.

More about this shelter

We are a small rural shelter that works very hard to find homes or rescues for our dogs. We have a 97% save rate at our shelter which we are very pleased about. Our staff and volunteers work very hard for our dogs. We are always looking for volunteers to help us clean kennels, walk dogs, and just spend some time with the dogs. Donations are very important for our shelter, as we operate on donations.
We have some of the best dogs in Ohio and would love for them to find a new furever home with you!
