My story

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

Kyra is a typical loving, cuddly, energetic, goofy pit mix, and is great around people. Good with commands - sit, down, place, leave it (drop it), let's go (follow), heel. Spayed and up to date on vaccinations, and no known or ongoing health issues. She is about 7 years old. 

She has a history of resource guarding aggression that has periodically escalated into fights between her and her dog sibling that she's instigated. She would do best in a home without any other dogs or children (unless they are older).

Additional adoption info

An adoption application must be completed prior to coordinating a private meet and greet with the dog's foster parent. An adoption contract is signed at the time of adoption. Veterinarian reference and a home check is also required. Since we do home checks for all potential adopters, we prefer to adopt only within the central Ohio area. All dogs have an adoption fee of $300.00 which covers their vaccinations (including rabies, heartworm testing and heartworm prevention) while in our care, worming, microchipping and spay or neutering prior to adoption. Please email us at contactus@powellpaws.org if you would like to meet one of our great, adoptable dogs.

More about this rescue

PAWS (Powell Animal Welfare Society) is a 501(c)(3), all-volunteer, foster-based dog rescue serving the Columbus, Ohio area. Our volunteer rescue, provides veterinary care and finds loving homes for stray, neglected, and/or abused dogs from overpopulated shelters in Ohio and neighboring states.

PAWS strives to eliminate the needless euthanasia of homeless animals, one dog, one adopter at a time. We are in need of more loving foster homes for homeless dogs. PAWS can only save a dog if we have a foster home to care for it since we have NO kennel. Each foster home provides shelter and care, while PAWS provides food, veterinary care (including spay/neuter) and all necessary supplies such as crates, bowls, leashes, collars, etc.
