Story
We got Ginger from Barely Used Pets in Urbana, OH. She is 2 years old and very well behaved. We want her to have a super good home. Both of our parents are aged, live out of state, and are not doing well. We may be traveling much in the near future to care for our parents, and it is not ideal to take Ginger with us. We wouldn't want to leave her in a kennel, but would much prefer that she gets a good home.Look up "Beagador" to learn more about the kind of dog Ginger is.

Story
Hercules was rescued by my brother, and I welcomed him into my home shortly after. Since then, he has been such a loving, loyal companion. He absolutely adores people and thrives on affection. He still believes he’s a lap dog and will happily curl up with you any chance he gets.Hercules would do best in a home where he can be the center of attention. He isn’t a good fit for a home with cats, and he can be reactive toward unfamiliar dogs. He would thrive with a confident, dog-savvy owner who can continue guiding him and setting him up for success.For his health, Hercules is on a chicken-free diet due to skin sensitivities, and he’s been doing much better since making that change.This sweet, affectionate boy has so much love to give. I truly wish I could keep him, but I want him in a home where he can feel secure and where all pets are safe.

Hello, Name: Zeus Maximus Breed: Red Fawn BullMastiff Weight: about 130lbs Trained: Yes, crate trained also. Vaccinations: All up to date and paperwork can be provided. He has also been neutered. Kids: He is a great Family dog, but prefers to just lay around with whoever his owners are (to include kids), and pretty good with other dogs too. He also loves being pet and cuddled. He also does pretty good at being a Guard dog for the house, and barks when someone is in the driveway (living home alarm 😊). He has a huge appetite too.

We got chewy from our uncle when he couldn't take care of her anymore. She's a really sweet girl, is great with kids and with other dogs and cats. We have to rehome her unfortunately because we are moving to a place where we can't have a dog her size.

Story
Dutch – 2½-Year-Old Mixed Breed Looking for a Loving Home Dutch is a 2½-year-old mixed-breed dog who appears to be a Pit Bull and Terrier mix. He is medium-sized, well-behaved, and has been a wonderful companion in our home. Dutch is house-trained, listens well, and has a friendly temperament. He sheds very little and has brought us a great deal of joy. He would do best in a home where he can receive plenty of attention, companionship, and regular interaction. We have made the difficult decision to rehome Dutch because our busy schedules require us to be away from home frequently and often out of town. We feel he deserves a family that can spend more time with him and provide the attention and activity he enjoys. When we adopted Dutch, we were told he was a Bullmastiff/Cane Corso mix, as that is what his mother was reported to be. However, as he has grown, he appears to be more of a Pit Bull and Terrier mix. Our priority is finding Dutch a loving, responsible home.
