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

Story
This is Andy and he comes to us seeking a forever home with patient adopters! Andy was running as a stray and all the signs are there that he had a difficult/abusive past. Andy needs his time to get settled in and get to know you, which is just a few days. He loves being near you, indoor life (especially couches), a yard where he can watch the birds and Andy loves to eat! Andy is approximately 4 years old and about 22 pounds. Andy would love to start his live with family that will love him for who he is. He has a lot of love to give to that special person who will earn his trust. Apply to meet Andy at ricopetrecovery.org. Fee is $250.

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
Hey there! I'm Parker! Someone to leave me in my crate in the middle of a park (hence my name). I’m not quite sure you can see how adorable I am and I am just as sweet as sugar. I like to do a little two footed dance when I get excited and I just love lots of hugs and kisses. My favorite place is in your lap snoozing while watching a good show. Foster mom says I’m dang near perfect. This sweet little love bug could possibly be the mix of a long haired Chihuahua, Papillon, maybe something a tad bigger. We suspect he will be on the big size of a small dog or small size of a medium. Right now Parker is 3.5 months and about 7 pounds. He is great with his foster buds and big dogs as well. You can’t miss with this stunning little fella. If you’re ready to give Parker a lifetime of belly rubs, treats, and a cozy bed, please reach out! Let’s find this sweet pup the forever home he deserves. ??. ✔️good with kids ✔️ good with dogs Once adopted (if remote adoption) she will travel via the Rescue Transport to his new family. Transport is an additional $185. They travel every weekend from Memphis, Tennessee to the north east, delivering pups along the way as far north as West Greenwich, Rhode Island.

Teddy was born on Halloween of last year he is still a baby. We got him from Petland, unfortunately with a job switch we don’t have much time for him. We feel like he deserves more time and attention. He is a playful puppy with lots of energy and he loves to cuddle
