Story
This story is a sad one, This is Chester who is bonded with his brother Shorty. They lost there mom who suddenly passed away from a stroke. In a matter of a week, she was gone. She loved her pups, and she had 5 little guys. These two are a bonded pair. Chester and Shorty. They are Jack Russell and Chihuahua mix. Chester looks like the Chihuahua in the face and Shorty looks like the Jack Russell. They are very good mannered. They do like to run if given a chance probably Jack Russell in them. They are housebroken. They never really spent much time in a crate. There Human mom didn't like it They slept in bed with her. They have been around cats as well. They would do good with a fenced in yard. They are being vetted as well as they will need neutered. The daughter is not able to keep them all as there are 3 other ones who are older plus cats. She can only keep so many. These two pups are lost if the other one is not around them. They must go together. Bark Animal rescue is helping to get these two to safety and to a new furever home so they can not worry anymore. Adoption app and fee for the boys. Contact BARK ANIMAL RESCUE in Greenville, Ohio if interested or for more information.

Story
This little guy named Buster has had a rough road and been thru a lot. He has been adopted out of a shelter in 2021 from a shelter that was shutdown with an older couple. The years passed and the couple grew older. They eventually wound up in the hospital and never returned and Buster was left in the home for many days with the kitties and no food or water no care. He was removed and taken to a new shelter and then taken to a rescue where he was later transferred to my shelter Bark Animal Rescue. He is about 6 1/2 yrs and he has been fully vetted. He has never been or had a collar put on him for some reason we still havent figured out. He does well in a fenced in yard So a fenced in yard is required for adoption. He is housebroke. He is crate trained. He gets along with other dogs his size. He has been around larger dogs and does fine with them. He has been around cats and does fine with them. He has not been around kids and I think he would do well with more of a quiet enviroment as well. He is still adjusting after having been in the shelter for a while Lookinf for a quiet good furever home for Buster If interested please contact BARK

Dottie came to us as a stray, unsure of the world around her, but it didn’t take long for her gentle personality to shine through. She greets everyone with a wagging tail and hopeful eyes. This lovable girl absolutely adores treats Dottie is as sweet as they come — calm, friendly, and always ready to make a new friend.

Dottie also enjoys spending time outside, taking in the fresh air, and exploring her surroundings. Dottie is also working on her leash training and continues to make progress every day. Now, Dottie is ready for her forever home where she can trade in her stray days for cozy naps, belly rubs, and plenty of treats.
