Doc Holiday

Dachshund Chihuahua

Male, Adult

Canton, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with dogs, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Doc is 3 1/2 years old and weighs 35lbs. His father was a Dachshund/Chihuahua mix and his Mother was a Treeing Cur. He is a sweet boy and we have never seen any aggression from him. He does bark at visitors when they first come to the house but settles after a few minutes. He does need some more training for car rides and socialization. He currently lives with our 12 year old dachshund so i'm sure he could become friends with another dog but he will need someone that is willing to give him the time and love he deserves. He has the chihuahua shake when hes nervous. He is very well potty trained and will ring a bell to go outside. He is also very smart and knows a number of tricks. He's got energy and would love to have someone with the time to walk him or that has a fenced-in yard. Our circumstances don't allow for us to keep him and although re-homing him is heartbreaking he just needs more than we can currently give him. (His tail has not been docked, It's natural)

Story

$0 adoption fee. My husband and I are so sad but need to rehome our sweet girl Nora. We have been trying to rehome her for several months. We feel desperate. She is such a good dog but there’s issues with her getting along with our family member’s small dog who we live with. We moved in June. Our family member who owns the home we live in says Nora needs to be out as soon as possible. She would need a home with no small dogs and no cats. She does great with all other sized dogs and gentle with kids. Has always loved going to our local dog park to play with other dogs. She’s 4 yrs old, around 65lbs. We’re willing to meet halfway so you can meet her if distance is an issue. We can also come to you depending on distance. We love her a lot and want her to go to a loving home. We’ve only had her for 1 yr and much of her life has already been in a shelter.

Speedy

American Pit Bull Terrier

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This is Speedy last name Gonzales. He is around 8 years old with a lot of energy he was adopted from a shelter back in March of 2026 he has been an amazing addition. Speedy is not good with other dogs although he is a sweetheart at home loves to cuddle up under blankets. He’s not a very vocal dog which is good for apartment living. I would describe him as energetic and loving he gets the zoomies but other than that he is pretty mellow and likes to lay around. If your an active person that great he loves to go running and does great with it runs 3 miles with ease and long hikes. Honestly we really just want him to find a good home with school, work, and travel he’s been in his cage more than we would like and just need a new home that can give him the attention that he deserves.

Mia

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult

Massillon, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Mia (aka Schmi or Miar-Piar)! Mia is estimated to be 6 years old and has been with us for almost 5 years. She is the biggest sweetheart who absolutely LOVES her people and wants nothing more than to be close to you. Her favorite place is snuggled under the covers with her head on your pillow, soaking up all the love. She loves sunbathing, chasing critters, running around outside, and then coming in to lounge beside you. Mia is dog-reactive and can bark, jump, and become stressed when she sees other dogs. We aren’t sure of the full extent of her reactivity, so she would need to be the only dog in her home. She has never shown aggression toward people and absolutely adores humans. She is patient and tolerant with our young daughter, but we believe she would thrive most in a home without young children, where she can be the center of attention. Older, respectful kids could be a great fit. Mia has so much love to give. She just needs a home where she can be someone’s whole world.
