Story
Lacie belongs to my in-laws whose health is unfortunately failing and they are struggling to take care of her. This playful pup loves to go on walks. She adores her toys - chewy, squeaky, she runs all over with them. She loves being close to the people she loves. We think she's 8-10 years old. They rescued her and she has been nothing but a blessing and brings them so much laughter and joy. Please consider opening your heart to Lacie. She will love you endlessly in return. Thank you.

Story
This sweet, precious sunflower is Honey— a silly, 5-yr-old cuddlebug with a huge heart and an even bigger personality. She was rescued two years ago, but due to financial hardship and changing living circumstances, her previous owner couldn’t keep her. I’ve stepped in to care for her these past few months, but I sadly can’t provide a permanent home as my elderly blind dog doesn’t tolerate other animals. Honey LOVES people—she’s gentle, social, affectionate, and a champion sunbather. She loves her mid-morning naps, enjoys playful bursts of energy, and likes to “yap” when she wants food, attention, or a trip outside. At ~80 lbs she may look tough but she’s really just a big marshmallow. She would thrive in a home with no other dogs, plenty of affection, and ideally a yard for zoomies and sun-soaking. She’s house-trained, crate-trained, and has no health issues. If you’re looking for a loyal, sassy, snuggly best friend—Honey is your lover-girl. She’ll love you forever if you let her.

Story
Delmar is a 10 year old dog with the energy of a puppy. He loves long walks and car rides. He loves being outside and curling up on the couch with people. I adopted him 3 and a half years ago from a family friend who couldn’t care for him anymore but now I do not have the schedule for an active dog. I just want to find him a home that will keep up with his energy and love him as much as I do.

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..

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 Uno is a 20-pound, 8-month-old Terrier mix with an incredible spirit and an even bigger heart. He came to us after suffering a serious injury that required a leg amputation—but you’d never know it! Uno doesn’t seem to notice he’s missing a leg and keeps up just fine with his playful, joyful attitude. He’s still working on potty training and can be vocal in his crate, but he’s making progress every day. Uno gets along well with other small dogs and has not yet met cats or kids. He knows how to sit and absolutely loves toys, especially when it’s time to play. Uno is the perfect mix of fun and relaxation—he’s happy to romp around with his friends and just as content to chill on the couch with the rest of the crew. Resilient, playful, and full of love, Uno is ready to find a forever home that will see him for the amazing dog he is. 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. DOB: 3/24/2025 Adoption Fee: $450
