Story
Meet Sammy! This special little senior boy is 11-12 years old and is an adorable mix of Cairn Terrier, Jack Russell and possibly chihuahua. Sammy has been with TRI since December 17, 2022 and what a joy he has been. Sammy has allergies that we were working through, and he's ready now to find his forever home! Sammy has a silly personality ten times bigger than his 12 pounds. His fur will never grow back on his belly or around his neck, so he hopes you don't mind his messy look (we think it's adorable of course!). His face will melt your heart. Sammy has been great with with all of his foster canine siblings. He will spend endless hours outside if you let him. Sammy loves toys and wants to play with his humans by throwing the toys for him. If you think Sammy is the little boy for you, email therescueinn@gmail.com or complete an adoption application: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html. Sammy can't wait to meet his family!

Story
Shorty! 🧸 Are adorably cute senior bears your thing? Well, meet Shorty! This handsome 10 year old American bully/pitbull boy is ready to find his home or a foster! Shorty is 84 pounds and has quite the story to tell. We met Shorty only a few months ago when Shorty was found by our humane officer friend outside in a small enclosure....where he lived for the last 10 years (yes, you read that right! 10 years!). Shorty's skin was a mess, and he was heartworm positive. One of our TRI fosters saw Shorty and knew this lug needed a chance! Shorty moved to foster care and has been blossoming into the handsome, lovely guy we know him to be today. Shorty underwent heartworm treatment and he is doing great! He also is now neutered. His skin looks 100% better. Shorty is a senior and has arthritis, but x-rays show he's in overall good health. We have him on Dasuquin and other supplements to support his joints. Shorty's teeth are ground down from his years outside gnawing at hard inanimate objects, so he gets water added to his dog food to help him eat. Shorty's favorite dogs toys now are soft cloth toys and it warms our heart to see him playing. Living outside for 10 years takes it toll. Shorty is afraid of fire, lighters and water hoses. Shorty is very smart and has already learned some commands. Shorty knows "sit" and is working on "wait." If you'd like more information on Shorty, email today at therescueinn@gmail.com or submit an adoption application and we will be in touch: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html

Sheldon

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 7 yrs 7 mos
North Olmsted, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I took Sheldon in 7.5 years ago when a coworker had 8 puppies to find homes for. (She took a dog in not knowing it was pregnant). I wanted to help her out and I also thought having a dog would be good for me, although, my experience with dogs at that time was zero. I work a lot, and life circumstances have also changed, and I feel bad, but I don't feel like Sheldon or I are able to live life to our fullest potential. Sheldon has energy. Loves to walk, run and play. He is a good watch dog. He will alert me if anyone approaches the house/yard. He is protective of me and sometimes tries to hump. He jumps, but if I do the “no touch, no talk, no eye contact” he will stop. I feel Shel needs someone to exercise him more. I’ve tried to make it work, but it’s not. I want us both to be able to live fulfilling lives and for him to go to a good, loving person/home where they can benefit and love each other.

Meet Levi! Levi is 13 1/2 weeks old, born November 14, 2023. Levi is a Running Walker Foxhound and currently 17 lbs. He's a rambunctious, sweet young baby who can't wait to find his forever family. A Running Walker Foxhound tends to have a short attention span, but is fairly highly intelligent. True to the breed, Levi has a good amount of energy so would love a home with other canine friends to play with, or a yard to run around in.

Story
This beautiful 2 year old brindle beauty is Violet! Violet is a 2 year old pittie and is full grown at 60 lbs. Violet has such a beautiful soul! She's a very shy girl, but once you spend some time with her and get that first tail wag, your heart will just melt. Violet recently went to the vet and did great at her appointment! It was her first time going to the vet ever, because in her past life she was used for breeding and never got medical done. Violet was quiet and stoic getting all of her shots and even her heartworm test done which was negative. Good job, Violet! Violet loves to go for walks with volunteers. She now walks with our other TRI adoptable pittie, Shorty. If you'd like more information on Violet, email us at therescueinn@gmail.com or complete an adoption application: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html
