But behind all that sass is a lovable, affectionate dog who just wants to be part of the family.Rasputia's ideal home would be somewhere with a sense of humor, plenty of love, and maybe a well-stocked snack drawer. She’ll do best with someone who embraces her big personality and is ready to give her the attention she adores.If you’re looking for a dog who brings the drama, the laughs, and the love all in one big package, Rasputia is ready to make herself right at home. 🐶✨Give us a call at (740) 314-5583 for more information!ADOPTION APPLICATION:All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.FOSTER APPLICATION:Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need?

Story
Meet Marnie!Right now, the world feels like a very big and scary place to him. New people, new environments, and all of the activity around shelter life can feel overwhelming, so Marnie spends a lot of his days keeping his distance and quietly skittering away from staff.Marnie spent some time in foster care, but unfortunately sharing a home with other dogs wasn’t the right fit for him. Since returning, he’s continued to struggle with confidence and is still learning that people can be kind and safe. He barely eats, keeps to himself, and is taking things one tiny step at a time.But here’s the thing about dogs like Marnie: they don’t need perfection — they need patience. Underneath all that fear is a young dog who deserves the chance to finally exhale and learn what it means to feel safe.Give us a call at (740) 314-5583 for more information!ADOPTION APPLICATION:All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.FOSTER APPLICATION:Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need?

Story
Meet Julia, the brindle blur who somehow contains more energy than the entire shelter combined. At 7 months old, she has decided that sitting still is overrated and that every moment is meant for playing, bouncing, and demanding your full attention.Julia doesn’t just want affection — she wants all of it. Forever. She is a professional attention-seeker with zero shame and maximum enthusiasm. If you stop petting her, she will absolutely remind you that your hands have a job to do.She’s smart, treat-motivated, and in that perfect puppy stage where training will shape her into an incredible adult dog — but make no mistake, she will need structure, routine, and plenty of outlets for all that terrier energy.Due to Julia's reactivity, she was unfortunately adopted but brought back to the shelter. The children in the previous home were not a match for her energy. We recommend a home with children who understand the time, energy, and training Julia requires.Interested in adopting Julia?

Story
Meet Fig, a one-year-old terrier mix with one very important belief: why eat near the dinner table when you could eat at the dinner table? This silly girl loves hopping up into chairs and taking a seat like she fully expects someone to slide a plate her way. Honestly, you may as well save her a spot.Behind her funny little habits, though, Fig is a sensitive girl still learning that the world can be a safe place. She can be very skittish and is often on the lookout for the nearest exit when things feel overwhelming. New people, places, and situations can make her nervous, so she’ll need a family willing to give her time and let her settle in at her own pace.Once Fig feels comfortable, there’s a sweet little personality waiting to bloom. She just needs patience, understanding, and a home where she can slowly build confidence.Give us a call at (740) 314-5583 for more information!ADOPTION APPLICATION:All adoption applications are completed at the shelter unless otherwise noted.FOSTER APPLICATION:Want to be a hero for a homeless animal in need?

Story
Hello! This is Edie my sweet girl. She came to me as a puppy from a family dog who had babies about 8 years ago. We are looking for a new home because we moved and she isn’t getting along with my partners pets. They play perfectly fine but she is very protective of her mama so it has been hard to adjust. She’s been in a single dog household for about 3 years and she is getting older so it is hard for her with stress and anxiety. She is extremely bubbly and full of energy. She loves to cuddle and play with her human. She definitely needs to be in a single pet household.
