Story
We acquired Maverick from a pet adoption agency when he was 9 months old. He is now just a little over 2 years old. He is a fiercely loyal pet to his owners--friendly and seeks a lot of attention. He loves going out in our 5 acre property and running around. He is great at following commands when he is calm (he was placed in a $3000 private training program) but can difficult to get his attention when excited. A perfect home for Maverick would be with a family with no kids or older kids as he gets extremely anxious with loud noise and commotion--particularly around small kids and too many guests. The homeowners should be experienced with energetic dogs. We love Maverick and only rehoming him because we know it's best for him to be with a family that allows him be his energetic self. Things to know:-House trained-crate trained (he loves his kennel—it’s his safe space)-knows basic commands (sit; down; place; come)-if you say “bowl” he will find his food bowl and bring it to you

Story
 Meet Kimber - if you are looking for a low maintenance dog that loves to watch TV, cuddle, play with toys, and curl up in blankets, and share naps,this is your girl.  She’s so loving!  Kimber is a very sweet female cuddle bug that is a 6 year old bull terrier mix and weighs 51 pounds. She went through the obedience training program at the prison and has learned so much! She loves all people including older kids, is house trained and goes in her crate when her foster is away. She does want to be the only pet in her home and would do best with a fenced-in yard. She will go on walks but doesn't necessarily need them. She loves sleeping in bed or watching TV.  Kimber is a smart girl that loves her human attention and has done great at all events we have taken her to.  She has been great with every single person she's met and her fav person is the mailman since he always brings treats.Kimbers ideal home would be calm and quiet with her people nearby. She would do fine with respectful older children or an adult only house.  Kimber is truly a WONDERFUL dog.  She would be great for someone who wants an easy dog that will keep them company. If you're interested in meeting this loving girl, apply at www.caninecollective.org. She deserves a forever home!  Note: Without a DNA test or direct information about the parents, the breed listed is based on our best guess or from the use of a breed identification app

Story
Nora came to us from my son's friend's family who had rescued her from a swap meet. They already had three dogs and Nora, being a younger dog, was too much for them to handle. We took her in, got her up to date on shots, spayed and microchipped. She is great with our other dog, cat and children as young as 5. She's a quick learner and can walk on a leash well even though my guess is that she'd never been on one until we got her. The vet estimates she's about 2 years old. She's house-trained but can also be a submissive pee-er around new people. She's the sweetest girl but her presence was not welcomed by all human members of the family and she's causing strife. We need to find her a new home where she can be loved and spoiled like she deserves.

Story
Having to find a new home for my dog Bruce and want to do right by him, not just post and hope. Bruce is 7, about 108 lbs, and about as gentle as a dog his size can be. He's amazing with people, including kids, and has never once shown aggression toward a person. He's calm, affectionate, and settled, basically a big lap dog who doesn't know he's big. The one thing to know: Bruce does not get along with another dog in the home and will stand up for himself if pushed. He'd do best as the only dog in the household, or with an experienced owner who can manage a careful introduction if there's already a dog in the house. He needs a fenced yard and a confident handler on leash given his size. I'm doing a meet-and-greet before any placement and would love updates once he's settled. Happy to answer questions about his history and routine. Bruce deserves a soft landing, and I want to make sure it's the right one.

Liberty BelleFemaleD.O.B. 5/1/2026Expected Full-Grown Weight: 65-75 lbsBreed: Boxer Mix Hi, I’m Liberty Belle, but my friends call me Belle! I’m an enthusiastic, athletic, and curious puppy who loves learning, exploring, and being part of the action. I’m good with dogs, cats, and kids. I currently live with other dogs of different sizes and two cats, and I do well with everyone. I also LOVE meeting new people and am friendly and excited to make new friends. I’m making great progress with my puppy manners! I ring the bells on the door when I need to go outside to potty, keep my crate clean overnight, and sit nicely when I’m asking for treats. I’m eager to please my humans and pay close attention to them, which makes learning new things pretty exciting for me. I love going for leash walks and am always ready for an adventure, whether we’re heading out for a car ride or simply exploring the backyard. I’m still figuring out how to keep my long legs from getting tangled in my car seatbelt, but I’m working on it! Toys are one of my favorite things — especially anything that squeaks. I also love playing in the kiddy pool, splashing my paws, fishing toys out of the water, and carrying them around the yard. When I get excited, I love to zoom around in big, fast circles. I’m a strong, muscular girl with some seriously impressive jumping skills, and I still enjoy a little backyard parkour — bouncing around the yard, jumping on things, and finding creative ways to turn everyday objects into an obstacle course. After all that activity, I’m happy to settle in too. I love lounging in circle-shaped dog beds and relaxing near my people, especially stretched out by their feet on the couch. I’m also very attentive and take cues from my humans. If another dog barks at something outside, I often look to my foster dad first to see how he reacts. I like to taste-test treats before fully committing, but cream cheese was a definite winner when it came time to take my monthly flea, tick, and heartworm pill. If you’re looking for a fun, smart, active, affectionate girl who loves walks, toys, zoomies, adventures, and being close to her people, I might just be your girl! If you are interested in meeting Belle apply to adopt her at www.causeforcanines.org Adoption fee: $395. Must be an Ohio resident & 23 or older. Children must be 5 or older. ##2778277##
