Story
Lucky Age: 3 yrs | Weight: 55 lbs | Breed: Pomsky (Pomeranian/Husky Mix) Status: Neutered, Fully Vaccinated, Up-to-Date on Preventatives Lucky is a vibrant, healthy, and loyal companion who has been a cherished member of his family since he was just six weeks old. Due to worsening allergies in the home and an unavoidable change in work schedules, Lucky is looking for a foster (or forever) home where he can trade his crate for more "zoomie" time and companionship. 🌟 Personality & Temperament Lucky is the perfect blend of his breeds: independent, curious, and deeply affectionate. He is a "people dog" who has never shown aggression toward humans or other animals. Vocal & Communicative: In true Husky fashion, Lucky likes to talk! He may give a low growl when it’s time to go into his crate—not out of aggression, but as a "vocal protest" because he’d much rather stay out and play with you. Everyone’s Friend: Lucky is great with other dogs, we are unsure how he does with children and cats. Alert & Attentive: He takes his job as a doorbell notifier seriously and will bark at strangers or footsteps at the door, though household sounds like the vacuum don't phase him. A Little Storm-Shy: While he’s fine indoors during bad weather, loud environmental noises like thunderstorms or large garbage trucks can make him anxious while on walks. 🏡 Life at Home Lucky is a "good boy" when it comes to house manners. He is house-trained and is not destructive when left alone. Crate Profile: He is fully crate-trained and sleeps there comfortably at night (usually starting around 8:00 PM). He currently spends 6–8 hours in his crate during the workday, but he is looking for a home where he can have more freedom and activity. Energy Level: High! Lucky loves his fenced backyard and enjoys being active. He is manageable on a leash but is always ready for an adventure. Training: He’s a smart pup who already knows Sit, Hug, High-Five, and “Let’s go outside.” 🏥 Health & Wellness Lucky is a healthy boy with no known allergies or chronic conditions. Monthly Maintenance: He stays protected with monthly Simparica trio (flea/tick/heartworm). Veterinary Records: All records are up-to-date and available for his new caregivers. 🛌 Ideal Foster Match Lucky would thrive in a home where: Someone is home more often or has a shorter workday. There is a fenced yard for him to burn off his Pomsky energy. The family enjoys an active lifestyle and can continue his basic training. A Note from the Family: "This was not an easy decision. Our goal is simply to find a home that can give Lucky the time, exercise, and attention that fits his wonderful personality. He has been loved since day one, and we want to see him flourish."

Story
Bear is a 2 1/2 year husky. He is pure white with blue eyes. We rescued him last year from a local shelter and he has thrived. Unfortunately my wife has major medical issues and I work too much. Bear needs more than we can provide. He loves being outdoors and will need a fenced yard. He knows all the basic commands but he is a husky and chooses when to listen!LOL He is chipped and up to date with all vaccines. He has gotten along with our cats and our young grandsons.

Story
Ruby is a well loved Covid dog. Literally got her the day schools closed down. She has a sister named Luna. Unfortunately, work days are getting longer and my kids are getting older and the dogs are locked up for too long during the day. This is not an easy decision but they need some room to play and not be locked up for 9 hours a day. It’s just not fair to them. This is not an unwanted thing, it’s a best for them thing. Hence no fee.

Sully is a wonderful dog a little hyper but calms down. Barks a bit but very loving and caring dog. My mother recently passed away and Sully was her everything. Unfortunately I house 2 cats and am unable to bring him home. He deserves a wonderful family.

Story
Toffee (full name Toffee Nathaniel) is a Chi-Poo male and amazing boy! He loves to jump, spin, and cuddle. I’m currently experiencing health issues that make it difficult to give toffee the life he deserves. I would love to find a loving home that would appreciate him that is open to chances of me still being able to visit. I have no problem with funding things for toffee as needed as well. He is a huge people person and attention lover, loves to nap but has loads of energy for time to play. He’s a super sweet gentle boy with lots of love to give!

Murphy

Australian Shepherd

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

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Murphy came in with his brother Mack. Both are sweet, loving, mid- to high-energy boys. Murphy started out more independent than his brother and still probably is a bit, but he also seeks out attention from time to time and can be very affectionate. Murphy looks more like pure Aussie than his brother, but he may still be mixed. We'd love Murphy and Mack to be adopted together. They are bonded and thrive in each other's company and the company of other dogs. A physically fenced yard is required. Murphy is available for adoption in Ohio to residents of Ohio.
