Story
Tundra is a 5-year-old Boxer mix with a gentle, sensitive soul who just needs a little time to feel safe and show his true self. He can be a bit reserved at first, but once he warms up, his sweet and loyal nature really shines through. Tundra would do best in a quiet, adult-only home where he can settle in at his own pace and build trust with his people. He gets along well with most other calm, respectful dogs and would enjoy a canine companion with a similar laid-back personality. If you’re patient and looking for a kind-hearted companion, Tundra could be the perfect match.

Story
Meet Pip-squeak, both outgoing with her friend`s, but shy when on new adventures and will look at you for guidance. One Dog`s Day Out person said, `When she encounters new objects or sounds on the walk, it helps her if you are patient and walk up to the object, so she knows it`s safe. Then let her explore it.` We believe she is housebroken, knows sit and down, loves to play tug-o-war and cuddling. On a staycation, she was described as being housebroken, active, loving to cuddle and knows her basic commands. She would like to be an only pet and kids 8+. Or as a staff member summed up, `She`s a good dog`.

Story
Jovie is a 3-year-old petite Boxer mix weighing just 30 pounds, and she’s looking for a patient foster home to help her build confidence outside of the shelter environment. Life in the kennel has been tough for Jovie, but when she gets outside, we see a completely different dog. On walks and during time away from the noise, she begins to relax and show her sweet, thoughtful personality. Jovie tends to feel more comfortable with women at first, but she has started recognizing some of her favorite male volunteers and is slowly letting her guard down with them too. Jovie is a smart and observant girl who looks to her handler for reassurance when she encounters new things. With time, patience, and consistency, she blossoms and begins to trust. She enjoys playgroup at the shelter and loves being part of the fun. Jovie does best when she can be a bit “in charge” of the play, so a laid-back resident dog would be the best match. Because she enjoys a spirited game of chase, she is seeking a home without small animals. Jovie would thrive in an adult-only foster home where she can continue building confidence at her own pace. A calm environment will help her feel safe, learn to trust, and show more of the affectionate companion we know she can be.Opening your home to Jovie could truly change her life. Interested in learning more about Jovie and her foster needs? Please email the foster team at foster@cuyahogacounty.gov today. Please note: Meet and greets with Jovie must be scheduled in advance through email.

Boxer

Male, 3 yrs
Valley View, OH

Story
Kiku is a 2½-year-old Boxer mix with a goofy personality, a loving heart, and unwavering loyalty to his people. He truly thrives in the company of other similarly sized dogs and must be adopted into a home with a social, playful, and active canine companion to help him feel confident and fulfilled. Kiku can be a bit shy when meeting new people or exploring new places, so he’ll need a patient adopter who can gently guide him as he continues building confidence. He would do best in a cat-free home with older children (13+) or adults only. Still polishing his manners and learning how to channel his excitement appropriately, Kiku is eager to please and full of potential. He absolutely loves toys—especially chew toys—and can happily play all day before curling up for cuddles with his foster mom and doggy siblings. Please note Kiku requires a home with a playful canine sibling.

Story
TO MEET ME, please complete a Pre-Adoption Application through our website: https://www.foreverfriendsfoundation.org/info/adoption (If you rent, you will be required to provide a copy of your lease agreement showing that you are allowed pets.)  ** SLIM JIM ** Whatever happened that left Slim Jim starving and tied to a fence in a snowstorm did not dim his joy for life.  He loves people – toys – other dogs – food and CAR RIDES!!! Jimmy is completely housebroken.  He is good in a crate and has had no accidents when foster mom is at work.  He sometimes makes dinosaur noises for the first few minutes at bedtime, but then sleeps through the night quietly.  He likes chew sticks or a stuffed Kong when at home alone. Jimmy is amazing with other dogs (after the proper introduction of course).  Other dogs can provoke or take food and he does not react.  He can get too excited and try to play too rough, but settles down if you stop the game.   Jimmy would prefer living with other dogs to entertain him Jimmy is a BIG fan of chew toys and tearing the squeaker from stuffies.  He is always carrying something around.  He will lay in the sunshine chewing on sticks or toys for an hour.  He will need guidance that not everything is his to chew up.  Initially Jimmy was afraid of cats but that was early on.  He backs away with respect if they tell him no so would likely do well with them.   We are not 100% certain about children but he wags his tail when he sees them at the park.  His excitement is his biggest challenge so perhaps older children would be a better fit.     Jimmy loves outings, but is strong on leash initially.  Now that he is healthy he needs more work on obedience.  He has not been reactive seeing dogs, people, or bicycles on the trail.  Regular exercise will be very important.  A yard and a buddy would be awesome for him!   Jimmy is 45 pounds, neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and fully vaccinated.   This handsome boy does not have an ounce of meanness in his body.  He has been through a lot and remains kinder than kind.  With time and training he will be the best friend someone could ever have.                   Neutered – microchipped – heartworm negative – fully vaccinated                                                Tax deductible Adoption Fee $300                    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 20, 2026, 6:52 am
