Story
RCHS does not conduct DNA tests on dogs who enter our facility therefore we are unable to guarantee breed or breed mix. Information provided by shelter staff, volunteers, and veterinarians is used to give a best estimate as to a dog’s breed make up. We do our best to inform adopters about the potential breeds for each dog.We are a dog only facility so we do not know how most of our dogs will be with cats. Even if a dog is surrendered to us and said to be good with cats there is no way to be sure the dog will be good with your cats. We do have a 7 day foster-to-adopt program so that you can see how the dog interacts with your cats before adoption.

Story
These 4 friends have been loved and cared for their entire life, maybe a bit too much because they all need a diet. Vegas, Tex, Gunner and Chance have all lived together prior to coming to us. We know that placing 4 dogs together is going to be IMPOSSIBLE so we will be separating them, unless someone is interested in keeping them together in pairs. Everyone is sterilized and housebroken and seemingly in the 5-7 year old range. We are not sure how they would be with cats but they were friendly with each other and the other dogs they've met since coming here. If you are looking to add a chonky pitty mix to your life, please stop by during business hours or give us a call at 740-775-6808 if you have additional questions.RCHS does not conduct DNA tests on dogs who enter our facility therefore we are unable to guarantee breed or breed mix.
