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

ABOUT ME… My name is BooBoo! I am guesstimated to be an approximate 2-year-old yorkie/chihuahua mix. I ended up at the big loud scary county shelter with an unknown history. I was struggling with some fear and anxiety in the shelter setting, so COPAW pulled me outta there. Now I am enjoying the great life of demanding love and affection from the humans whenever I desire. I especially love to be carried around in a sling, so I am always by your side! I AM GREAT WITH… -People, dogs, and cats! -Basic commands! My favorite one is to “sit pretty” for my treats! I AM STILL WORKING ON… -Housebreaking. I am scheduled to be neutered on 4/16/25, but I am admittedly a bit of a marker. ___ VETTING... ~All animals in our care are spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (age 1 & up), given preventatives, and provided with initial vaccinations AT MINIMUM. ~If booster shots have not been completed prior to adoption, they may be completed at our clinic in Columbus, OH at no additional expense.

Sophie is a sweet, loving and loyal 11 year old chihuahua that is looking for a new home due to the passing of her owner. She was dearly loved for years and would thrive with someone who is loving, affectionate and who values the importance of her being a part of the family. An ideal situation would be someone typically home during the day as was her prior owner, as she would love the attention. Her favorite things are snuggling up next to you, napping, exploring a fenced yard and short walks. She loves breakfast and dinner time and a great snack. Sophie is not aggressive, is not a barker, and has very successfully lived with cats and dogs but would really thrive in a situation that she would receive attention and love in her daily life. She is a sweetheart and is devoted to her people. Sophie is currently being fostered by the prior owner’s daughter as we look for her forever home. If you want an amazing dog to enhance life and bring you joy please meet Sophie.

Butch was so frightened when arriving to us, but who wouldnt have been. Picked up as a stray with his buddy, Billy. Taken to the shelter where he was minutes from losing his life. Then transported across the country with lots of other barking and frightened pups. It’s been a whirlwind of stressful events. But even so, Butch began to relax slightly after a few days and after a week he allowed us to touch him. It just takes a little time and patience. Billy warms up a lot faster, but with time these two will be a delightful addition to any family. We are looking for someone with the time and patience to bring the best out in this sweet boy who Wants so badly to trust and believe there is good that exists in this scary world. At not quite three weeks we are now receiving kisses from Butch. Both boys are vaccinated, neutered, flea and tick treated and microchipped. Please submit an application to meet these sweet little guys. Canaananimalsanctuary.org

Meet Milo and Chico, a father-son chihuahua Bonded Pair!!! A bonded pair means they are very emotionally attached and must be adopted together. 4 year old Milo weighs only 8 lbs and 5 year old dad Chico is 11 lbs.Milo is a loving precious soul and is amazing. Milo and Chico lost their home when their owner passed away but they are extremely bonded and we want to do our best to keep them together. Milo loves playing with his dad and will not sleep unless his dad is nearby. He does enjoy having his own bed. He loves a recliner, sofa and will curl up in a blanket with his nose buried so his dad can play hide and seek. These 2 are full of endless entertainment. Although they are bonded they will let you know they have enough love for you too...with lots of affection full of snuggles and kisses and when they roll over for a belly rub, you can't resist either.Milo went to a petstore event sponsored by canine collective with his dad and another larger CC dog. He had no probs with this larger dog. They were super friendly with everyone they met and got lots of attention, were well behaved, and very much enjoyed their day out. Our little boy is very loving and loves to be held. He looks at you as if he hangs onto your every word. He does know his name and listens very well. Milo goes out to potty but also uses a washable pee pad overnight. He loves his toys and will retrieve them after he shakes the daylights out of them. Our boys are both very quiet so they would do great in an apartment. These little guys are supersweet and lots of fun too. Since they are so small we think an adults only or a family with older kids would be fine. If Milo and Chico are what you're looking for, apply at www.caninecollective.org.

Billy is a very sweet but shy boy who barely escaped death with his buddy Butch. They were already in the euth room in a shelter in Texas, but fortunately we were able to pull them just in time. Billy and Butch were roaming the streets with a few other dogs when they were picked up by ACS. It has been a rough start to life for these two, but we are hoping they will find a wonderful family to show them that life can be good and not all humans are bad or scary. They are definitely bonded and must be kept together. Billy adjusted pretty quickly, but little Butch is frightened and less trusting and will take a little longer to warm up. Once he begins to trust and relax, you will see his loving and kind personality emerge. Please submit an application to meet these two special boys. Canaananimalsanctuary.org

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Pretty Girl! This little pretty has not had an easy go of it, as she spent many days in emergency care for Parvo and then some (over $8,000 in vet bills!) Pretty Girl is healthy now and making up for lost time. She is a petite princess and can sometimes be bossy with other dogs. She has had some exposure to cats in her current foster home. The cats there do not put up with dog nonsense. She is ready to have all your attention to herself. She can be a little timid and unsure so she will need to have your heart and your time. Because of her rough past, she can be a flight risk. She will need a physical 3 foot fenced yard that she cannot escape from and since she is so tiny, their can't be any spaces she will fit through. Pretty Girl is still working on leash training so a secured area will be the safest place to get her used to her new family and a leash. Just be patient with her and you won’t be disappointed. Pretty Girl is working on using the doggie door and piddle pads in her foster home. If you want the cutest addition to your home – turn in an application! She is ready for a stable and safe home. Columbus and surrounding areas only please.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Welcome Miss Sugar to DASH. This remarkable little girl came to DASH with several other dogs when their owner passed away unexpectedly. She is tiny and her biggest characteristic is she is missing part of her front paw, which we believe she was born that way. It doesn't cause her any pain and she uses it just fine. This little one has endured quite a lot since coming to DASH, as she was diagnosed with kidney stones, several rather large ones at that for a pup so tiny, and had to have surgery to have them all removed. She is now totally healed up and you'd never know the pain she was in. She is extremely shy, and loves to just be carried around by her foster mom. She also does not really like being outside, and expresses her dislike for that by just using pee pads. She has a very humorous bark that she uses on larger dogs, as she is very fearful of them, but is fine with smaller dogs. She would be great for a senior looking for a constant companion. Due to her small size, young children are not recommended. She has ignored the cat in her foster home. Put in your application to meet Sugar today!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Meet Sammy! This sweet boy was set to be euthanized at a rural shelter before DASH came to the rescue! He is just a super sweet, laid back boy, who wants to be wherever his human is. He follows his current foster mom around everywhere and will even sit on the table while she is working. He does really well with the other dogs and cat in the home as well. He is crate trained and housebroken. He is working on his leash manners, so his new home will need to continue to work on those or have a fenced in area he can just go out in. His foster mom says he's the perfect boy. He has not been kid tested. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 27, 2025, 8:55 am
