Story
Chance is a great dog with lots of personality and character. I got him when he was 7 months old from an AKC breeder. Unfortunately, I later discovered that he came from a poor breeding situation and had multiple worms and intestinal parasites, as well as a birth defect affecting his rear knee. Since then, Chance has been successfully treated for his intestinal issues and has had surgery on his knee. He has recovered well overall, but he still does not fully use the bad leg. Chance is house trained, knows basic commands, is friendly with other dogs, and does well meeting new people. He's a social dog with lots of personality, and I'm hoping to find him a caring home.

Story
Hey there, I'm Van. I am a 55 pound border collie lab mix, and about a year and a half old. I'm a pretty big guy and still have lots of puppy energy, but I am calming down a bit! I am very sweet and great with everyone. I love kids but because I am big and energetic, I probably shouldn't live with small children. I also love to learn so I would be a great dog for someone wanting to do agility, sports or even running with me. Hurry up and apply for me. I look forward to meeting you! Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start November 10, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
🐾 Meet Kyra! 🐾We're fostering this sweet girl and helping her find her forever home. Kyra is a 4-year-old, 72 lb Border Collie mix who was rescued by Rico through the Franklin County Dog Shelter after being found as a stray. Kyra is energetic, sweet, and always ready for an adventure.A few things about Kyra:❤️ Housebroken and trustworthy when left home alone❤️ Very friendly and wants to greet everyone she meets🎾 Absolutely OBSESSED with fetch. Seriously... she never gets tired of it!🚶 Enjoys walks and is working on her leash manners🏡 Free-roams our home while we're away and does greatKyra is a high-energy dog who would thrive with an active family. She can get a little mouthy when the zoomies hit, but she redirects easily to a toy. Just don't expect those soft toys to last long! The shelter reported that she did well with other dogs, but she's definitely a dominant, bossy girl. We think she'd do best with a tolerant fur sibling who won't mind her taking charge. Another dog in the home may also help build her confidence, as she still hasn't figured out stairs and has happily stayed on our first floor for the entire month she's been with us.Apply to meet her at ricopetrecovery.org. Adoption fee is $250

Story
Irwin has been with us for a little over a year now. We have been working on some behavioral issues, getting him ready for a forever home. We believe that Irwin is ready to find a home with someone or a family experienced with Border Collies, Aussies or another herding breed. Irwin has lots of energy and needs to have a purpose, a job or anything that keeps him busy. Irwin would not do well with apartment living. He needs his space to be Irwin. Irwin is VERY selective on the dogs he likes and will not do well in a home with cats. If you are interested in meeting this handsome boy and speaking to our staff that has been working with him, please fill out an online application. Once the application is approved, we will contact you to schedule a visit.

Story
Pumbaa came to us as a stray with his brother. He is about 4 months old. His brother got adopted and now Pumbaa is looking for his forever home Pumbaa is such a gentle boy, he'll walk up to you sideways waiting for pets, and once you pet him he flops on his back to get belly rubs. His little stub tail wags up and down instead of side to side which is incredibly cute! He loves stuffies and squeak toys and will romp and play with them. Because his brother had been the boss in their duo Pumbaa seems to be a little fearful of other dogs and might be best as the center of your attention. Adopters will need to be prepared to put time and love into teaching basic and house training but he seems to be a quick study. If you think Pumbaa could be your lifelong companion fill out an application today.
