Story
Meet woody!! He is a chihuahua. His est birth date is 6/26/2016. He weighs almost 13lbs. He is fixed and UTD on all shots and micro chipped. Woody was found wondering the streets of Columbus and was taken to the shelter there until he came to us.He is thriving in his foster home now. He is extremely loving, playful and well mannered little guy. He really enjoys being outside and does really well on a leash. But anything that goes over his head like a harness does make him nervous. So a vest type harness is best for him.Does well with kids 10 yrs and older. With Woody being a little on the older side. He does have some arthritis is his back legs. He is currently on inflammation meds for that. Woody is in a foster home that is located in Urbana Ohio. His adoption fee is $300.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.ADOPTION $450.00Lily is a sweet young Chihuahua mix, under a year old, who is looking for a patient family to call her own. She’s working hard on her potty manners and, with a little gentle encouragement, we know she’ll earn that gold star soon! The world can still feel a little scary to Lily, so a kind voice and patient heart will help her blossom. Once she feels safe and comfortable, she loves to cuddle close. Lily is fully vetted and ready to find the loving family who will show her just how wonderful forever can be. New foster dogs need time to feel safe. They may be skittish or fearful, so always stay with them outside—even in fenced yards. Ensure collars and leashes fit securely to prevent escapes. Your gentle presence and protection help them feel loved and secure. The adoption fee helps allow Perfect Paws to provide all animals with current, age appropriate vaccinations which include, DHLPP, Kennel Cough and Rabies (if the pet is at least 13 weeks old), and spay/neuter when necessary.  The fee also helps with the cost of deworming; heartworm testing (if the pet is at least 1 year old), heartworm prevention as well as flea and tick prevention for animals cared for through the rescue. He will go home with a collar, leash, and vaccination record.

Story
Meet Milo!  Milo has recently been diagnosed with diabetes, and has most likely been undiagnosed for a couple months now, which has unfortunately altered his appearance. He is on the road to a healthy recovery and would love a fur-ever family to partake on this journey with him!   Kids: Milo does great with kids! Dogs: Milo came in with his brother, Oliver, and did fine. However, he can be a bit protective of his food around other dogs. Cats: We are unsure how Milo does around cats. Milo is Neutered, Microchipped, and fully up to date on all vaccinations and preventions. For more information or to schedule a meet-n-greet, please call us at 419-352-7339 or email us at wchsadopt@gmail.com ##2866199##

Story
Meet Cheech 🌿🐾 Cheech is a sweet little guy who has one very important request: **please give him a minute!** 😂 New people and unfamiliar surroundings can be a lot for this handsome boy, and he’s definitely not the type to walk into a room like he owns the place. Cheech is more of a **“I’ll just hang out over here and quietly evaluate the situation”** kind of guy. 👀 Once he feels safe and realizes you’re one of the good ones, you’ll start seeing those little glimpses of personality that make all the patience worth it. 🥹❤️ He’ll need a patient family who understands that trust isn’t built overnight. Give him time, space, encouragement, and plenty of gentle reassurance, and Cheech can slowly trade his worried wiggles for happy ones! He may not be the life of the party right away, but with the right person, we think Cheech could become your favorite little homebody. 🐾💚 **Cheech isn’t looking for someone to rush him—he’s looking for someone willing to wait for his confidence to bloom.** And trust us, that first big “I LOVE YOU!” moment will be worth the wait. 🥰 Dogs: Unknown, we rec. a meet and greet! Cats: Unknown Kids: Must meet all kiddos in the home!
