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 very affectionate, curious, playful, energetic, and smart. He is eager to please, very inquisitive, and likes learning new things. In his spare time, Tank enjoys watching tv, playing fetch, going for walks, chewing on his toys, cuddling with his human, and even walking on the treadmill! He is very well behaved in the house and is potty trained. 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 dog to play and explore with, Tank is your boy! Foster will pay half of the adoption fee. Tank is being fostered in Richfield, OH through Powellpaws.org.

Story
Jax is a 9 year old pittie. He is a sweetheart who just wants love and attention. He loves new people, however he does jump when meeting them. It’s all out of love, he just doesn’t realize how big he is. I believe in a more open environment, he will be way more chill, as he is pretty calm at home day to day. He will be a great cuddle buddy! I will say he is still pretty active. A bigger, fenced in yard would be ideal for him. He hasn’t been around other pets or children, however he has never been aggressive in the past, so I don’t believe he would be bad with them. However, as I said, he can be jumpy. He is a sweet, handsome dog who just needs a good home to live the rest of his life as happily as possible! I have a big cage, toys, a bed, food, shampoo, doggie bath tub, ect. that I will provide, as well. He is not up-to-date on his vaccines, which is why I’m not asking for money. I do have his medical records, though. He is about 10 months due. Unfortunately, we need him re-homed asap.

Story
Meet Reggie. Reggie is a 5-year-young male Australian Shepherd weighing 93 pounds of fluffy, gentle goodness. This sweet boy somehow found himself without anyone to claim him, but we know his perfect family is out there just waiting to meet him.Shelter life can be a little overwhelming, so Reggie is shy in his kennel — but don’t let that fool you. He’s very friendly, just a sensitive soul taking it all in. Once you get him outside, he truly enjoys his walks, and you might even catch a little tail wag. Reggie keeps his kennel clean and he is not a barker. Unlike many Aussies, Reggie has a low energy level. He’s not looking to run a marathon — he’d much prefer leisurely strolls and then relaxing by your side. He does have a little junk in the trunk at the moment, but with regular walks and some consistency, he’ll have that beach body ready in time for summer. We are looking for a home environment for Reggie. No apartments for him. Because he was found as a stray, we don’t have much history on him. Compatibility with children, cats, and other dogs is unknown. In the shelter environment, Reggie seems unfazed by the other dogs. As always, a meet and greet with your resident canine is required.Reggie is available through our foster-to-adopt program, which includes vaccinations, microchipping, and heartworm testing. You get to foster him in your home while he finishes his vetting at the shelter vet. He is already neutered and ready to start his next chapter.If you’re ready to meet this sweet, shy boy and give him the loving home he’s been waiting for, email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and submit an online adoption application for Reggie. His adoption fee is $160.Help this gentle soul finally find the safe, cozy home he deserves.

Story
Smokey is a 67-pound Catahoula/Husky mix with movie-star good looks and a heart of gold. Turning 6 years old on Saint Patrick’s Day (talk about a lucky charm!), this handsome guy sports one striking blue eye and one warm brown eye — he’s basically born to stand out. Smokey came to our shelter with his son Cannon when their previous owner had to move and could not take them along. Smokey carries himself with a calm, steady confidence. He has a medium energy level, meaning he’s just as happy going for a nice walk as he is relaxing by your side after a long day. His beautiful grey and white coat matches his gentle, loyal nature perfectly.Smokey loves kids, gets along well with other dogs, and according to his previous owner, is both housetrained and crate trained. He’s already neutered and ready to bring stability, devotion, and a whole lot of heart into his forever home.Smokey is available adoption which includes vaccinations, microchipping, and heartworm testing. If you’re willing to open your home and your heart to Smokey, please email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and submit an online dog adoption application for Smokey. His adoption fee is $160.Smokey isn’t just looking for a family — he’s looking for one lucky enough to love him (and his favorite sidekick) forever.

He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and already knows his manners—sit, shake, lay down, stay? Nailed it.That said… if left uncrated too long, his mischievous side might come out (think “curious husky energy,” not chaos).This boy has a high energy level and lives for agility courses, running and car rides, toys, toys, and more toys. He also enjoys playing in water. Waylon would thrive in a home where someone is around often, because he doesn’t love being left alone for long. He’s affectionate, easy-going, playful, and always happy to be by your side once he bonds with you.
