Augie

French Bulldog

Male, 3 yrs 4 mos

Springboro, OH

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Augie is a charming French Bulldog with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He was found wandering the streets of Cincinnati, and despite every effort, no one came forward to claim him. Now, this little guy is ready for a fresh start and a forever home! Augie is a typical Frenchie — full of spunk, curiosity, and endless affection — but he’s also been through a lot, and he needs someone who will take things at his pace. Augie only wants one person in the home with him. He will be so loyal to that one person. If visitors come over, he will be happy in his crate or in a room with some food and toy. He doesn't want to meet your friends. He also wants to be your only fur baby. Because... he's the perfect baby. Why would you need another one? Once he knows you’re in his corner, he’ll be your loyal, goofy, snuggly sidekick for life. He enjoys short walks, cozy naps, and being part of the action (especially if it involves snacks). If you're the kind of person who believes in second chances and building trust one step at a time, Augie might just be the dog for you. Ready to meet Augie? Fill out an adoption form today and give this sweet boy the gentle forever home he deserves. 💙

Meet Winston 🖤🐾 Winston is a small, black, long-haired dachshund mix with a BIG personality and an even bigger love for people.

True to his dachshund roots, Winston loves to talk — he’ll happily share his thoughts, opinions, and daily commentary with you, especially if it means getting attention or joining the fun. He’s also got the practical stuff down: house trained and crate trained, making him an easy, well-mannered addition to a home. If you’re looking for a small dog with a huge heart, a lot to say, and an unwavering desire to be part of your world, Winston is ready to claim his spot by your side (and probably on your couch). 🖤
