She loves short walks, swimming and most of all snuggling in bed!

This record is for holding generic dog applications This is a generic dog or puppy application. In the "If this pet is not available" field, describe the dog or puppy you are interested in even if we don't have one currently available. Also indicate if you are willing to foster to adopt. This will allow us to pull a potential dog or puppy but you must be willing to give the animal time to decompress if you indicate this as an option. Some of the animals we get may be pretty scared initially as they get used to a more loving environment. Adoption Fee $ TBD based on the dog or puppy but usually range from 300-500. All our animals are up-to-date on age appropriate shots, fixed and microchipped prior to adoption. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click https://www.tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed.

Australian Shepherd

Male, Adult

Cuyahoga Falls, OH

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

This handsome 5-year-old Australian Shepherd is the total package — smart, loyal, and full of love! Max knows basic commands, is fully housebroken, and enjoys toys, bones, and relaxing in his crate, though he prefers to be by your side. He walks well on a leash but may pull or react when he sees other dogs. He’s played nicely with dogs before, but slow introductions work best. Max loves being with his person, whether he’s fetching a ball, getting belly rubs, or resting his head in your lap. Like most Aussies, he’s alert, aware of his surroundings, and may try to herd small children or animals. He’ll thrive in a home familiar with herding breeds and able to guide his energy in a positive way. Max needs a yard to run in or someone who is reasonably active to help him stay happy and balanced through walks, play, and mental stimulation. Adoption is $300 which includes his neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention.

Lacy

Border Collie Beagle

Female, Senior

Cuyahoga Falls, OH

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Lacey is a 10-year-old Border Collie/Beagle mix with the softest soul and the most devoted heart. She’s incredibly sweet, gentle, and happiest when she’s right by her people’s side—quietly following along, just wanting to be included. She definitely inherited the beagle nose, so fair warning: trash cans should stay secured But beyond that little quirk, Lacey is an easy, peaceful companion. She does fine with other dogs but doesn’t rely on them for companionship—people are her favorite, and that’s all she really needs. Lacey loves the outdoors, especially cooler or cold weather. She would be thrilled with daily walks, time outside with her humans, and simply being able to enjoy fresh air—something she hasn’t had much of in her life so far. Her previous world was very small, and while she was deeply loved, her owners became bedbound and could no longer meet her needs. Letting her go was an act of love, and now Lacey is ready for a new chapter. She has Cushing’s disease, diagnosed a few months ago, and would benefit from activity, weight loss, and consistent care. More than anything, she needs someone who will give her time, affection, and companionship. Lacey isn’t demanding. She doesn’t need chaos or excitement—just a kind person, a steady routine, and love. In return, she’ll give you loyalty, calm companionship, and a quiet presence that makes a house feel like home. If you’re looking for a gentle shadow, a walking buddy, and a dog who just wants to be with you, Lacey may be your perfect match Adoption is $100 which includes his spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention.

Cagney & Lacey-Bonded Pair

Beagle Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Female, Adult

Rootstown, OH

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.WARNING: CUTENESS OVER LOAD! Cagney and Lacey are two sweet girls who are thriving together in foster care. They came to the pound as strays, and staff quickly noticed they did much better when housed together. Because of that, they may be bonded and are happiest side by side. Cagney is 18 lbs and Lacey is 16 lbs. They look like mini boxers. Both girls have been friendly with every human they’ve met so far. While they haven’t had direct exposure to children yet, they show very good potential with proper introductions. They also appear to have good potential with other dogs. Cagney and Lacey are still learning the basics of home life. They’re eager, attentive, and listen well when redirected, but they do need reminders—especially when it comes to jumping up to say hello. They are also learning proper leash manners and will benefit from continued consistency. A fenced yard would be ideal so these happy, energetic girls can run and play together. They are long legged little girls and will need a 4' or higher fence. If you’re looking for two affectionate, fun-loving companions who already support and comfort one another, Cagney and Lacey might be the perfect addition to your family.
