Story
My name is Bojangles! But you can call me Bo. I'm a Hound/Mountain Cur?  I'm 3 years old, 44 pounds. Low to medium energy. His foster parents are still learning with Bo, but this is what we know so far:   I'm housetrained and appropriate chewer.  Bojangles isn't fond of the crate. Ok to be left out. Sleep in dog bed at night or bed   My foster parents can run errands, no problem. I will alert you when Amazon is delivered or guests arrive. But no worries your packages are safe!    Walking at Parks are a bit much for Bo with bikes and other dogs. He can be leash reactive when startled or approaching dogs. Gentle Leader helps with this.   Bo loves car rides. Good in the car.    Good with children.  Cats unknown. Commands known, sit, down and paw/high fives   Bo is good with other dogs. Also likes to play.   To learn more about Bojangles, apply on our website at https://www.powellpaws.org/adoption-application     Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start November 10, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
Hi there, I’m Otto! I’m an 11-month-old hound/pointer pup. I am currently 42 lbs.  here is some more info about me:   -Great with other dogs!  -Skittish in new places and around new people. All siblings from this litter were more fearful of men but is not aggressive- just will probably be more comfortable with females initially. Once he gets to know you, he is very snuggly and sweet.  -He would do best in a home with another dog that is friendly around people and confident on leash to help him. Outdoor adventures with a dog friend would be good for him. -Crate trained. Is crated next to Sallie at least 4 days a week for 8 hours per day. He will probably be fine loose eventually, but he still occasionally chomps on things like most adolescent dogs. -Did well with his cat test. Disengaged from the cat easily and was more interested in finding cat food. -Rides well in the car. Occasionally will bark when he sees something out the window. -Housetrained (but you do have to pay attention to him) -He is a good boy!  Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start November 10, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
Hey there, I'm Van. I am a 55 pound border collie lab mix, and about a year and a half old. I'm a pretty big guy and still have lots of puppy energy, but I am calming down a bit! I am very sweet and great with everyone. I love kids but because I am big and energetic, I probably shouldn't live with small children. I also love to learn so I would be a great dog for someone wanting to do agility, sports or even running with me. Hurry up and apply for me. I look forward to meeting you! Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start November 10, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
We picked Winnie out as a puppy and brought her home to be a livestock guardian to our outdoor animals, which she has done a great job for just over 3 years. She always wants to be doing a job or interacting with us like a big puppy. She's extremely sweet and loves to cuddle, and would definitely be a lap dog if given the opportunity. She is good with our 9 and 6 year olds and has never attacked or been aggressive with anyone. She has 5 acres currently to explore and will not have this much land when we move, and we want to find her a good home where she will continue to have the life she has enjoyed so much.We recently had her go through a 21 day training program at Joel Slavens dog lodge, which taught her several commands and amazing leash training.

Story
I’m Ziggy, a 7 year old heeler/terrier mix and would really like a dog buddy to play with! I weigh 75 pounds and don’t know my size, so when I get excited, I may be a bit sturdy for small dogs or young kids. I really like fetching tennis balls, playing tug-o-war and being around people. I know some commands like sit, shake, down, and would love to learn more. I’m easily bribe-able with treats! When I’m done playing, I like to be a couch potato and will snuggle next to you. I do all my business outside and never had an accident in the house. I don’t like the crate or being confined, but I am trustworthy enough to be left out while my humans aren’t home. I also like car rides and will hop right in. The dogtor did a checkup and said everything looks good so I’m ready to meet my furever family!  Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start November 10, 2026, 7:00 pm

Story
Spot was born in Minikin Manor in Liberty Hills, TX. He is a five-year-old, blue merle, full breed toy Australian Shepherd. Spot is a super cuddly and affectionate dog who loves to sit right next to his companion or in laps if allowed. He loves to play fetch with small balls and run outside. Owner moved to Columbus, OH in 2022 and has full veterinary medical history of records from PAZ - East Veterinarian in Austin, TX and Upper Arlington Veterinary Hospital. Spot is neutered.Spot has lived well with one other dog for his life, but is not easily socialized with other dogs and we would prefer a single pet household familiar with herding dogs.Spot knows the “sit” command. He does a good job riding in the car with a doggy hammock in the back seat. Spot currently lives well with a baby with separated/defined living spaces.Spot benefits from a puzzle bowl because he loves food and to eat quickly. He prefers quieter walking routes and is easy to pick up in off leash dog or difficult terrain.
