Story
Meet Wishbone ❤️ Wishbone is a 6-year-old dog looking for a loving new home. He has been a wonderful companion to my father, who is nearly 90 years old and is transitioning into assisted living where pets are no longer an option. Wishbone is friendly, enjoys being around people, and loves companionship. He looks forward to his daily walks, followed by a good nap afterward. He also enjoys playing with toys and spending time with others. He was adopted about 4 years ago and has been a loyal companion ever since. We believe he is up to date on his vaccines, and we are currently working on obtaining his veterinary records.This is a very difficult transition for our family, and we are hoping to find Wishbone a safe, caring home where he can continue to receive the love and attention he deserves.

Story
Tank is a young, neutered male Staffordshire terrier/Lab mix who is looking for a home where he can get a lot of love and attention. He is a lovable, energetic goofball who still thinks he is a lapdog! He always wants to be close by his people, loves playing with his toys, going for walks, and even does well on a treadmill! Tank is housebroken and lets you know when he wants to go outside. He likes to play frisbee, fetch, and tug. He is very curious about everything. He enjoys chewing on his toys.He knows his basic commands and does pretty well on a leash. He has made great strides in socializing with other dogs. Tank would do best in a home with no toddlers or very young children, as he doesn’t realize how big and strong he is. If you are looking for an active and athletic dog to play and explore with, Tank is your boy! View videos/shorts of Tank on YouTube, username Lagotto349. Foster will pay half of the adoption fee.Tank is being fostered in Richfield, OH through Powellpaws.org.

Story
Cornell was adopted as a puppy from the Athens, Ohio APL by my daughter when she was at student at Ohio University. He is approx 3 years old now. He spent over a year at OU and did a great job socially with all the students he came across. He is a very sweet dog and wants to please our family. Unfortunately there have been incidents where he has been startled or triggered to nip/bite. We put him through training which was successful but the nip/bite has still occurred infrequently. This makes it impossible for me to keep him due to our current home situation. We feel he would thrive in a loving home where he is not frequently startled or exposed to strangers and with an experienced dog owner who can manage such situations. Cornell gets along very well with people and dogs that he knows. I personally have two dogs and my fiancé has four and the seven of them have all melded together perfectly. I attached a photo of a typical evening when they are all together!

Story
Daisy is a great dog about 2.5 years old. She loves to take walks and play with people and other dogs. Does not do well with cats or outdoor wildlife. A change at home leaves her at home alone (with 2 other senior dogs) for long periods of time during the week. She needs more attention and time with other people which I can no longer give her for the foreseeable future.

Story
Appa is a one year old 75% great pyrenees mix. We do not know what he is mixed with. We purchased him from a grain farm as a puppy he has been crate trained, partially potty trained (he has occasional pee accidents). We waited until he was over 1 to have him neutered so that his bones were able to grow strong. He is trained for commands such as sit and stay. He is not aggressive at all. Loves others, protective and would work for any family home.He requires more attention than we can give due to our jobs. We are asking for what we paid for him $0. He has all shots and uptodate license.If you want his kennel and harness we will provide for an additional $150.
