Story

Lola is a 4 year old hound who needs a patient and loving home. She’s affectionate, cuddly, and enjoys being around her family or other dogs. Lola has spent most of her life in a home and is happiest when she has some company nearby. I deeply believe Lola would do best with an owner who has experience with dogs or is commited to continue working on training her. She is very vocal when left alone because of her separation anxiety, so she most likely will not be the best fit for a home where she will be left by herself for a long time. Lola is very good motivated, or centered. She will investigate and steal food from any plates unattended or pantry doors left open. She would benefit most from CONSISTENT boundaries and POSITIVE reinforcement training. We sadly have to put Lola up for adoption due to an upcoming cross country move. We’re looking for a home that can provide the time, attention, and stability she deserves. We know she would thrive with someone who can give her love.

Cain

Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Male, 3 yrs 5 mos

Athens, OH

Size

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

Details

Story

Cain is a 3.5-year-old, strikingly handsome boy who has already endured more than his fair share. When he came into the care of the Athens County Humane Society, he was in rough shape with wounds along his back and the scars of having spent most of his life on a chain. Thanks to the dedication of volunteers and the staff at the Athens County Dog Shelter and his amazing foster home, Cain has started to heal and learn what kindness feels like.At his first vet visit, we also discovered that Cain is heartworm positive. While heartworm is a serious condition, Cain is receiving the treatment he needs. The process carries risks, but he has shown remarkable strength and resilience already. After everything he’s overcome, Cain deserves the safety and love of a forever home. He would do best as the only pet, though he does enjoy side-by-side walks with other dogs. More than anything, Cain needs a home where he can finally experience the life every dog deserves, safe, cared for, and deeply loved.If you are interested in meeting this wonderful boy, submit an application to athenshumane.org/adopt.
