Story
Howdy! My name is Blu! I am a Handsome , 10 year old bulldog mix . I am fully vetted and potty trained. I am not only smart but active & I love to go for walks, explore! I have alot of energy for my age so you will get your steps in for sure! I LOVE LOVE to just snuggle & am always ready to watch movies or share dinner ! I will chase a ball & will entertain you with my witty personality! I walk well on a leash, knows "sit" "stay" "wait" "back" and "down" "leave it". I wait to go out of the house and come back in. He loves to watch the world go by out the window. He needs a 6' fence so he can zoom. I love humans & I dont mind older children (over 15 )who are respectful. I definetely need a home committed to giving me exercise! I loves hiking, walking, & I sleep very well when worn out at the end of the day! PS I don love to nap in the sun too! I sometimes have anxiety if I do not get the daily exercise so please know I will settle in with an active lifestyle.. I even have my very own trainer to help me acclimate to my new home!!!——— Text for a meeting with Blu! 440.773.1707

Story
Meet Dolly 🌸 She is a low-maintenance, easygoing girl who enjoys short walks, lounging in the sun, and relaxing in the grass. She loves affection and quiet companionship more than anything. She gets along with other animals as long as they give her space, she’d do best in a calm home with relaxed pets or as the only animal. Dolly is a gentle 9-year-old, 55-pound sweetheart who has overcome more hardship than any dog should. She spent the first part of her life chained to a tree in Indiana for three long years, used for breeding until she could no longer have puppies. When she was no longer wanted, she was left to live in a car in Ohio. 🌸Despite everything she’s been through, Dolly’s heart is pure gold. She’s now working on gaining back some healthy weight and learning what it feels like to be safe and loved. She’s spayed, fully vaccinated, and recently had a few growths removed, so she’s ready for her forever home. After everything she’s survived, Dolly truly deserves a peaceful, loving place to call home, one where she can finally just be loved. ❤️ Text to meet Dolly 🌸440.773.1707 / (216) 470-4322❤️

Story
MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm. Questions can be emailed to rescue@mbrohio.com Introducing Snickers, the 2-year-old, 23-pound Terrier mix who struts through life like she’s got her own theme song. (And trust us—it’s straight Lizzo energy.) This sassy little lady knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to let you know. Other bossy females? Hard pass. Cats? Absolutely not. A house full of laid-back boys or her own solo spotlight? Now that’s more her vibe. She may give a little side-eye (and a playful nip in the air) when someone interrupts her beauty sleep, but she’s all bark and no bite—just a diva making sure her boundaries are respected. Don’t get it twisted—Miss Snickers isn’t all attitude. She’ll smother you with kisses (seriously, ALL the kisses) and curl up right beside you for naps like the loyal queen she is. High energy? Yes ma’am. She’s ready to hike, walk, or run the world with you at a moment’s notice. Independent? Definitely. She’ll happily entertain herself with a stuffed toy—but still expects to be the star of the show. Even with her strong, independent attitude, this little lady still loves to be near her people. Polite with treats, crate trained, potty trained, and already a pro on the leash—Snickers has brains to match her sass. She’s strong, she’s bossy, she’s fabulous, and she will love you harder than anyone else can. If you’re ready for a pint-sized powerhouse who brings Lizzo-level confidence and diva energy into your life, then Snickers is ready for you. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, the first thing to do is submit an application for approval. All dogs available for adoption are in foster homes. Please do not visit the rescue location as it is a privately run boarding, training & grooming facility. Individual meet and greets are scheduled by appointment only for approved adopters. Age: 2 years Adoption Fee: $400
