Story
Are you the type of person that likes to give sweet older pups a chance they might otherwise not get? Sweetie loves attention and will happily help you out by guarding the door of the bathroom from the inside. However, she can also be quite the independent little lady and doesn’t need to be a velcro dog… unless you want her to be! Sweetie can be a little bossy with her dog friends (part of why we think she’s mixed with chihuahua!) but generally gets along well with everyone. Sweetie is a beauty but would benefit from a little tough love when it comes to feeding and giving out treats and a little more activity in her day. A physically fenced yard is required. Sweetie is available for adoption in Ohio to residents of Ohio. If you are interested in adopting Sweetie, please complete the online application here (copy and paste into your browser): https://hhdane.formstack.com/forms/lostpetrecoveryadoptionform

The perfect little sidekick, Miss Lady lives up to her name. This 9 year old, 13 lb gal is full of personality but very easy going...so much so, sometimes you don’t even know she is around.  Her favorite past time is burrowing under a blanket for a LONG nap! She loves to snuggle up next to you and will never pass up a snack. This little diva would make the perfect on the go partner as she loves to jump in the car for a ride. If you are looking for an easy-going best friend, you have found your gal. She is ready to receive and give all the love available.

Pip Pip

Chihuahua Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Male, 5 yrs 3 mos
Lewis Center, OH
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Pip Pip has been with us since Thanksgiving day. He's adjusted really well. He coexists with all the family animals, cats included and couldn't care less about them but will let them know with a growl they've entered his personal space. His focus is collecting all the squeaky toys and being with/on his foster mom's lap. He goes outside very confidently, does his business, claims his territory and comes back in to find his lap again usually holding a toy. His communication could be determined as mean but that is not the case. It's his way of showing that he likes petting, and scratching and just ALL the attention. He'll lean in hard to your neck for lovin's. A fashionable belly band would help in the beginning because he wants to claim the inside as his territory too but he is housetrained. Trazadone helps to calm this boys excess energy for now, Pip Pip would make a great lap dog for anyone who is looking.

Story
Say hello to Tess and Molly! These two sisters are just amazing and deserve a wonderful family who will love them with all their heart ♥️. It’s hard to describe how sweet they are. Both have such huge loving personalities. Personality: Typical small dog behavior. They just want to be with you, in your lap, being talked to and being made the center of your world. They have so much love to give and will bring someone or some family so much happiness. We would love it if they get adopted together, but they can also be separated. Tess and Molly were part of a hoarding situation. They were well taken care of, however, in a home with just too many dogs to supply them with all the attention and devotion they deserve. Both are up to date on vaccinations and have been spayed. Approximately 2 to three years old and well out of the rambunctious puppy stages. Once adopted Tess and Molly will travel via the Rescue Transport to their new family or families. They travel each weekend from Memphis, Tennessee to the northeast, delivering pups along the way as far north as West Greenwich, Rhode Island. Transport is an additional $185. If you would like to make one or both of these cuties part of your family, please follow the link below to our adoption application. Our turnaround time is typically less than 24 hours so please be prepared before you submit your application. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9
