Story
Very active 1.5 year dog. Does better with larger dogs compared to small ones, cuddle bug if you get her tired enough. Would do better in a home with older kids or none at all. Needs training to be calm enough with younger kids. Non aggressive just doesn’t understand how large she is.Is an excited pisser but is manageable with an appropriate amount of potty breaks. Over all good girl very affectionate.Knows basic commands. Sit, lay down, kennel, bed, wait (for food). Very smart girl (yet stupid lol) could probably practice agility she loves to jump threw hoops and tunnels at the dog park.Housing situation unfortunately changed just trying to find a good home.

Story
My name is Phyllis Moore We got bad news my last week husband 80% allergic to our Dog Hannibal who is 10 years old. He has ongoing health issues (allergic to grass sheds constantly and smells takes lifelong drugs Zenrelia needs baths) (has warts/cyst that with surgery leaks stop but comes back eventually has to wear cloth diaper around waste to catch water) we are seniors and can't keep up the regiment of the clean up and the costly baths. He is short but big heavy Bully Breed ( more bulldog). I would like for him to go to place that cares for dogs with issues because he has a few years ahead of him. He is not sick. Eats, drinks water urinated and has nealthy bowel movements. I am very heartbroken. I can help with the pills if I have to. I don't want him to go to unscrupulous people who will harm him. He is very friendly and could have been a therapy dog. Very good with other animals and children. I have to remove him from my home so my husband can breath. Gateway & Suburban shot recor

Good with kids, House-trained,
Story
Apollo was rehomed to me in 2024 due to a friend moving and unable to take him. He’s very loyal and lovable. I want someone who is looking for a companion dog. His temperament is great he doesn’t mind people at all. He’s only been around teenagers and young adults. He’s very smart and trainable. He needs attention, someone to play with him and take him on daily walks.

Story
Archie is a 3 1/2 month old male (Standard) Cavapoo puppy who currently weighs 14.5 lbs. He will likely be around 30 lbs. when full grown. His birthdate is 5/17/26. ARCHIE SHEDS AND IS NOT HYPOALLERGENIC. He appears to have inherited more of the Cavalier breed traits! He came to us as an owner surrender, through no fault of his own. Their other dog was not happy about sharing his home so the family decided it was best for Archie to be re-homed. Archie is up to date on vaccines, HW/Flea/Tick prevention. He will need to be neutered at 6 months (Nov). Rescue will cover the cost of his neuter as long as it’s done at Midwest Vet Hospital. Archie is your typical, adorable puppy with all the behaviors that go with being 3 1/2 months old. He is full of energy and puppy antics including nipping, jumping, play biting, and wanting to chew on anything and everything within his reach. We have been working with a trainer to help Archie learn his good boy manners through positive reinforcement. He’s making progress! Lots of consistency and patience required! He’s making good progress on his house training as long as he’s closely monitored and kept on a schedule. REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE: • a home with securely fenced yard. No electric/invisible fences and no apartments. • a home with another dog who is playful and well-mannered. Archie is crate trained and sleeps in his crate through the night for 8 hours. He keeps his crate dry. During the daytime, the maximum time he can be crated without a potty break is 3 1/2 - 4 hours. Archie has been around kids ages 8 and up. He still nips and jumps so a home with kids over the age of 6 would probably be best. Will need regular brushing 2-3 times a week. And professional grooming a minimum of every 2 months. Local adoptions only, within a one hour driving distance of the Cleveland, OH area. We require a home visit for the meet and greet and this keeps it manageable.

Story
Nora is a wonderful, beautiful, sweet Husky, who we rescued at the end of 2024. She is a dream to walk and run with. She does well with our 7 and 10yo kids and our other dog (10lb) and cat but we introduced them gradually. According to the staff where she boards, she does well with older male dogs. She displays some guarding behavior. Life circumstances have changed such that we feel we are no longer able to provide her with the amount of exercise and attention she deserves so want to find her a better suited family. She would be great with a person or family that goes hiking or running regularly. She is still a husky so some experience is probably helpful.
