Story
Coco is a sweet, goofy girl with a big heart and an even bigger personality. She loves making people smile with her silly antics and has a playful spirit that makes every day a little brighter. Whether she’s happily following you around the house, playing with her favorite toy, or just relaxing by your side, Coco is happiest when she’s with the people she loves. Making the decision to rehome her has been one of the hardest choices I’ve had to make. I never imagined I’d have to say goodbye, but I’m deploying soon and won’t be able to give Coco the stable home and attention she deserves. She means so much to me, and my only goal is to find her a family who will love her as deeply as I do. Coco deserves a home where she’ll be included as part of the family, given plenty of love, patience, and time to be her goofy self. In return, she’ll reward you with loyalty, affection, and countless moments that will make you laugh.

Story
What a face! Humphrey is a big doofus. When he arrived he weighed 14 lbs. He was living in a crate and being starved to death. But with the right vet care and foster he is now 40 lbs and loving life. He still wants to eat too fast so he uses a special bowl to slow him down. Humphrey is still learning he can go outside to potty and he doesn't have to do his business in his crate. At some point his ears were cut off, probably with scissors, but that doesn't seem to bother him. And it just gives him a special look, along with his squatty muscular body. He needs a strong person to help him keep learning life can be good. He can be reactive with some dogs. No idea about cats but probably should not live with them. He does think he should be a lap dog and loves belly rubs. I am in a foster home so if you are interested in adoptiong me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.  Due to the large number of inquiries we receive, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.  March 9, 2026, 11:29 am

Story
We are seeking a knowledgeable and patient home for our 5-year-old Standard Poodle, Griffy. He is highly intelligent, loyal, and very people-oriented, forming strong bonds and thriving on close companionship.He would do best as the only pet, following two incidents with the same small dog. He can be sensitive with handling—especially around paws and mouth—and has shown some reactivity during grooming. Due to sensitivities and a young child in our home, we feel he needs a calm, adult-only environment where he can feel secure. He will need an experienced owner comfortable continuing training and building trust.In the right setting, he is a loving and devoted companion. He loves running outside, swimming, walks, and balls. He has never ripped up any of his toy and can recall them by name. He has an obsession with pillows and blankets and loves to lay on top of them while sitting next to you on the couch.

Story
Harrison is a wonderful family dog. He is a 7 year old purebred labradoodle. He loves children and basically any person he meets. He is just a kind and gentle soul. An increased work schedule has left us very little time to spend with him and he unfortunately has been alone a lot lately. We want the very best for him and he deserves a family who has time to play with him and take him for walks, he is very energetic. He is potty and crate trained and knows basic commands. Please forward any questions.

Story
Gunner is a male black and tan hound mix around 3 years old and weighs around 50 pounds. Gunner was rescued from a rural small-town dog pound. Gunner is a good boy. He is crate-trained and goes into his crate when told. He obeys and comes when called. He rides well in a vehicle, sits for treats, and walks on a leash. He is good about baths. He is affectionate and loves human attention and petting. He loves toys, treats, and playing with other dogs. It is very hot here in Texas, and Gunner prefers to be inside and snoozing on the couch in the air conditioning. During the heat of the day, he will go out to potty and run, and wrestle with his friends for a short time but then he is ready to come back inside to cool off. Being a hound, Gunner exhibits some typical hound behaviors. He goes ballistic over squirrels in the trees. He barks at people walking down the street and other dogs and cats he sees in the neighborhood. He will counter-surf with his partners in crime. And if I forget to secure the cabinet with the baby lock he and the other dogs will open it and raid the garbage. Gunner is a typical goofy and happy hound. Gunner is neutered, tattooed, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. He has been treated for heartworms. He is now heartworm-negative and receives monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Gunner is available for adoption to approved applicants. He is located in Texas but can be transported after he is adopted. His adoption fee includes the cost of ground transport by a reputable and trusted transport company to several scheduled stops in Ohio - including but not limited to - Columbus, Cincinnati, and Akron OH.
