Unca is a lovable goofball with ears that have their own zip code and a personality to match. She’s affectionate, loyal, and very much a “wherever you are, that’s where I’m sitting” kind of girl.
She’s house trained, walks well on leash, and is highly motivated by treats and praise (snacks are the key to her heart). She enjoys short training sessions and likes knowing what’s expected of her.
With other dogs, Unca is submissive and generally polite. She settles nicely in a calm home and only shows mild separation anxiety — no destruction, just a little dramatic sigh if you leave.
Unca would do best in an experienced, adult home (16+) that can help her continue building confidence and manage some mild resource guarding and mouthiness. With structure and reassurance, she thrives.
Car rides? She prefers shotgun and may offer commentary if restrained. Safety first — a seatbelt or crate with slow acclimation is recommended.
Low-to-medium energy, big-time snuggler, and ready to be someone’s constant companion — Unca is all ears… and all heart!

Shelter
This organization is committed to providing a positive adoption experience!

We are offering adoptions at our shelter from 12 noon - 6 p.m. daily. Our dog and cat adoption areas are open for walk-throughs every day. We are dedicated to making our shelter a pleasant environment for the animals and our guests. Adoption fees waived (FREE) for animals 6+ years old! Find your furever friend today...
If you are interested in adopting, check out the available animals on this website by using the tabs to the left or by clicking here for up-to-date information on pets currently available for adoption.
Adopters must be at least 18 years of age, have a valid driver's license or government-issued ID, provide payment, and be required to sign the adoption contract.
We cannot finalize adoptions over the phone or online. This is a family decision; everyone in the adopter’s household is encouraged to meet the animal at the shelter. The actual adoption visit takes place in designated areas and typically lasts 10-15 minutes. During this time, you will be able to spend some quality time getting to know the animal and deciding if they are a match for your home. At the end of the visit, if it’s a match, GREAT! In keeping with the desire to limit visits, our expectations are that you are prepared to take the animal home the same day. If you are interested in adopting a dog, and you have a dog (or dogs) at home, they must successfully meet each other before completing the adoption.

More about this shelter
The SPCA Cincinnati is your Cincinnati Hometown Humane Society and has been for 150 years. When you ask, “Who is the SPCA near me?”, you’ll find us, with solutions for everything animal-related — from pet adoptions to vaccination clinics. We provide compassionate care for any animals that come to us, from food to medical care, exercise, enrichment, and love to get them ready to go to their new homes.
We are the pet placement experts locally and across our nation, making the SPCA Cincinnati the place to go for adopting cats and dogs, as well as small animals.
We do all we can to support people so that pet surrender is a last resort, such as providing pet food donations for those under financial strain and behavioral training. We partner with human social service agencies to keep pets in their current homes and to improve their quality of life. We value innovative educational techniques to keep pets and families together, enrich shelter life, promote the humane treatment of all animals, and prevent pet overpopulation.
Our work is made possible through the compassion and generosity of donors — caring friends like you.
