Story
Meet Josey! This sweet border collie mix is about 2 years old and she’d fit in to about any home. She’s great with dogs and loves to run around the yard with her friends. She likes toys but isn’t destructive. She plays fetch, has good recall, rides well in the car, is crate trained day or night, good on leash, etc etc etc. Josey is also fabulous with kids (even toddlers)! Apply today to snatch up this perfect girl before she’s gone. All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   November 1, 2026, 1:40 pm

Farmer is an adorable two and a half year old border collie mix who weighs about 45 pounds. With a heart full of love, he thrives on companionship and would be the perfect addition to a family, especially one with kids. Farmer's friendly nature means he gets along well with other dogs, and while he's curious about cats, he shows no signs of aggression. He walks wonderfully on a leash and is dog door trained, making him an easy fit for any household. Eager to please, Farmer is currently honing his "stay" command, showcasing his potential for training. With his boundless affection and playful spirit, Farmer is ready to bring joy to his forever home!

Story
Space is a 9 month old medium size dog. She loves other dogs and has done well with cats. Space needs a special adopter that will give her time to realize people aren’t so scary. She has made a TON of progress at her foster home but is still very timid at times. She gets SO excited to see you after work but still only wants to be pet on her own terms. She will do best in a home with no children, another dog to help build her confidence, and her own yard, as she is not leash trained. She is very fearful of the leash, leading us to believe she may have had a traumatic experience involving a leash before coming to HART. This dog absolutely loves to be comfy. All she wants is a comfortable bed or to curl up by your feet on the couch. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog that does not beg for constant attention or a friend to keep your dog busy while you’re at work, Space could be a great choice for you. If interested in meeting Space please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org!

Story
We had plans for Oreo. Heartworms were not among them. We were thinking a family. A home. Somebody making a ridiculous fuss over him because he’s 5 years old and has missed out on plenty of that. Instead, we’re looking at an $800 heartworm treatment bill and asking for help again. Oreo lived at the end of a chain without much care. His coat was so filthy and matted that the person who rescued him had to shave it. It’s coming back nicely. His ears seem to be handling their own styling. He’s a Border Collie mix, good with dogs and kids, and just a really good boy. We’ll be checking how he feels about cats soon. He’s our third heartworm positive dog in two months. We test every dog who comes in, at $40 a test. When one is positive, we cover treatment. We want to send people home with a dog they love, not a medical expense they weren’t expecting. That’s some of what’s behind an adoption fee. And a whole lot of what’s behind these donation requests. We’re lucky our little rural shelter can still afford to treat dogs like Oreo. We know who makes that possible, and here we are asking you again. Oreo needs help with his treatment and a foster home where he can recover. If that foster home turns into his permanent home, even better. BCHS will cover his heartworm treatment either way. He finally has people taking care of him. We’re going to see this through.

Story
WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Hope! And trust us, she's everything her name promises! If you're looking for a dog who will love you with her whole heart, follow you from room to room, and consider personal space a completely unnecessary concept, then allow us to introduce you to Hope! Hope is a 5-year-old Border Collie/Australian Shepherd mix, and honestly? She's the kind of dog who makes you wonder how you ever lived without her. She's sweet, loyal, loving, and happiest when she's right by her people's side. Bathroom trip? She's coming. Laundry? She's supervising. Couch time? She has already saved you a spot. This girl is a certified Velcro dog who wants to be part of whatever you're doing. She's not just looking for a house to live in; she's looking for HER people. The ones she can love fiercely, stick close to, and shower with affection every single day. And the best part? Hope is wonderful with kids, other dogs, and cats! She's a social sweetheart who fits right into family life. She's also house-trained, so she's already got some important life skills mastered. Good girl points? Off the charts! Now, we do need to discuss the chickens. Hope thinks chickens are delicious little opportunities rather than feathered friends, so a home with chickens would not be a safe match. We'll call that her one very specific career interest! Hope has so much love to give, and at five years old, she's past the tiny-puppy chaos but still ready to enjoy all the adventures life has to offer. She'd love a family who wants a devoted companion: not just a dog in the backyard, but a true member of the family. Hope is the bestest girl, and she's ready to prove it to her forever family. She's got the loyalty, the cuddles, the good manners, and enough love to fill a whole house. All she needs now is someone to choose her. Could Hope be the missing piece of your family? Give this wonderful girl her happily-ever-after! Apply to adopt Hope at haydudeequine.org.

Story
Chip is a handsome bully-Aussie mix, approximately 2 years old, who was rescued as a stray. Chip knows basic commands and has an outgoing personality. He will need an adopter with bully-breed experience; homeowners only. Chip is OK with other dogs but any dogs in his adoptive home should be female. Chip weighs about 60 pounds and is very physically strong. Because we don't know his history, Chip's new home should be child-free. Chip has tested negative for heartworm, has been neutered, and is current on vaccinations/flea/heartworm preventative. You will receive health records and a bag of Hill's Science Diet food upon adoption. Adoption fee $280. Please complete the pre-adoption questionnaire at https://www.cchspets.com/adoption-pre-qualifier We will contact you via email. Please check your spam/junk folders! *Unless a future date is otherwise stated, animals are ready to be adopted once posted to Petfinder. Before you apply, please make sure you are at the point where you can welcome an animal into your home. The Clinton County Humane Society is a no-kill, nonprofit, volunteer-based organization. We do not receive county or government funding and depend on our adoption donations to fund the shelter.
