Story
Meet Callan, a 3 year old Retriever mix. Callan is the most affectionate, loyal, old‑soul pup you’ll ever meet. He’s been my pride and joy since I adopted him at seven months old, and together we’ve gotten through some really tough times. He’s a happy‑go‑lucky boy with a gentle heart, a goofy spirit, and a deep love for his people.Callan is:• Wise, sweet, and emotionally intuitive• Spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated• Housetrained, crate trained, and leash trained• A loyal companion who bonds deeply with adultsCallan thrives in calm, adult‑only homes. He absolutely adores his Nonna and Papa and loves going on “vacations” with them. He’s extremely affectionate and loves to cuddle.Because of Cal’s impressive strength and reactive nature, he must be adopted into an adult only, pet free home. He does not thrive in an environment with children or other animals. He is devoted and wants nothing more than to bond deeply with his owners as the one and only.

Story
Meet Roxie! This vibrant 4.5-year-old Hound mix is equal parts adventure buddy and professional couch potato. If you are looking for the absolute life of the party who will look at you like you hung the moon, your search ends here. Roxie’s philosophy on life is pretty simple: 70% of the day is dedicated to elite-level napping, sunbathing, and back-scratching sessions in the grass, while the remaining 30% is pure, unadulterated fun. She is an outdoors girl through and through who loves sniffing along trails, heading out on daily 30-to-45-minute walks, and letting you know when she’s ready to unwind. (Fair warning: she loves shoes just as much as she loves walks, so a tidy closet is a must!)While she’s a champion free-roamer who happily snoozes on a cozy couch with some background TV noise while you`re out, Roxie is a high-energy gal at heart. Because she loves to run and stretch her legs, she needs to be the only pet in the home to soak up all your undivided attention. She would thrive best in a house with a fenced-in yard where she can zoom around freely—or, if you live in an apartment, a nearby fenced area is an absolute must to help her burn off steam. Like any fabulous diva, Roxie comes with a few charming quirks and training notes for her future human:Weather Reports: She is a sun-worshipper, but she is decidedly not a fan of thunderstorms. When lightning strikes, she likes to pace or find comfort in the closet (and she`ll take all the gentle patience and cuddles you can offer).House Training: She is a smart cookie who will literally show you her leash when she needs to go out! She had a few accidents, but almost all of them happened on two back-to-back storm days when she was too terrified to do her business outside, or right after she chugged a lake`s worth of water after a long walk.The Excitement Wiggles: When Roxie gets the post-walk zoomies, she plays rough, loves a good game of jump-and-bark, and occasionally gets so excited she tries to hump. She`s a strong girl who requires a handler who can confidently guide her down with calm commands or a quick spray bottle.Personal Space: She is the ultimate loyal shadow—she`ll even gently paw at your laptop to remind you to put down your screen and pet her—but she prefers a little polite quiet time while she eats her meals.Roxie is food-motivated, knows her basic commands like sit and come, and will reward your patience and leadership with a lifetime of fierce loyalty. If you work from home (or can swing a mid-day check-in) and want an adventurous, sweet, and wonderfully sassy best friend to join your crew, Roxie is ready to meet you!

Story
Meet Spike, a 7-year-old Hound mix who is ready to enjoy the finer things in life, like taking it easy and spending time with his favorite people! This sweet senior guy has a laid-back personality and would love a home where he can relax and enjoy life at a leisurely pace. Spike can do well with other dogs of a similar size, both male and female, as long as they share his calm and easygoing demeanor. He is not recommended for homes with cats or small dogs, and children ages 12 and up would be the best fit. If you’re looking for a mellow, loving companion to share peaceful days and cozy evenings with, Spike could be the perfect addition to your family!

Story
Kato is an adorable 8-week-old puppy who is currently thriving in a foster home while he learns all about being a well-mannered little companion. His foster family has been helping him build confidence, improve his social skills, and work on his house training. Like any young puppy, Kato is still a work in progress! He has sharp puppy teeth and is learning that fingers, toes, and household items are not chew toys. He loves playing with his toys and is always ready for some fun, so a family prepared for the energy, patience, and commitment that comes with puppyhood will be the perfect match. Kato is looking for a home with a social, confident adult dog who can help show him the ropes and provide a positive canine role model. Because of his puppy energy and learning stage, he would do best with kids ages 10 and older. Kato is not a match for homes with cats or small dogs.His ideal family will understand that bringing home a puppy means continuing his training, socialization, and house training while giving him plenty of structure, patience, playtime, and love.Please note: Kato is not currently residing at the shelter. He is in a foster home. If you are interested in learning more about Kato or the foster-to-adopt process, please email foster@cuyahogacounty.gov.Kato is ready to find his person and grow into the amazing dog he is meant to be!
