Story
Meet Velveeta — a nearly 1-year-old Shepherd mix with the perfect mix of brains, energy, and affection packed into her 40-pound frame. This happy girl is always ready for the next adventure, whether that’s hiking trails, going for runs, playing fetch in the backyard, or just being your constant sidekick through everyday life. Velveeta is the definition of a fun-loving best friend. She’s playful, social, goofy, and absolutely adores other dogs. She would thrive in a home with another active, playful dog who enjoys wrestling, zooming, and keeping up with her energy. She’s also the kind of dog who would love an active person or family looking for a loyal companion to include in everything. When the fun is over, Velveeta is incredibly loving and wants nothing more than to be near her people. She forms strong bonds, follows you around like your little shadow, and is happiest when she’s included. She’s crate trained, housebroken when kept on a schedule, and eager to please. Like many young Shepherd mixes, Velveeta is smart, active, and happiest when she has both physical exercise and attention from her humans. She’s still young, still playful, and still full of personality — the perfect age for someone looking for a dog they can truly build a life and adventures with. Velveeta did test positive for ehrlichia exposure, which simply means she was exposed to a tick-borne illness at some point. She currently has no symptoms and feels fantastic. If treatment is ever needed in the future, it’s simple and inexpensive. If you’re looking for a loyal adventure buddy, a playful dog for your current pup, or a happy-go-lucky best friend who’s always ready for whatever comes next — Velveeta may be exactly who you’ve been missing. Adoption is $300 which includes her spay, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.All animals are up to date on age appropriate shots, microchipped and fixed. To meet one of our animals we require an approved application. You can fill one out at https://tobyscrittercoverescue.org/adoptionapp/ May 18, 2026, 6:10 pm

Story
Hello everybody, this is Pitch. She is a 4 year old Purebred German Shepherd. She is a very playful lively girl. She has been with me since she was a puppy, however times have been hard. Due to my current living situation I can no longer keep her. I've looked into other options, but nothing I can find seems plausible anymore. Pitch is a loving dog who needs attention. She's is uneasy around new people, and is dog aggressive. I have trained her as best as I could with a professional. I currently have cats that she is ok with, but personally I think she'd be best as only pet. She needs to be someplace where it is just her and her people.

Story
  Black Lab x GSD | Affectionate | Cat Friendly | 6 months | Housebroken  Angie has been waiting so patiently for her forever home, tail wagging, kisses ready, hoping today is the day someone finally chooses her... She is one of the most affectionate dogs you'll ever meet. Wherever her person is, that's where Angie wants to be. She is genuinely happy, full of energy, love, and has complete devotion to her family. Even though Angie may look like a grown-up, she is still very much a puppy. She needs a confident person who gives affection AND boundaries, not one without the other. She has responded beautifully to training. Leash walking is night and day better. Jumping has improved. She knows 'sit' and 'crate.' She is definitely one smart girl (so she will test you to see if you'll be consistent)! Lab/German Shepherd mixes have the potential to be the best dog you've ever had or a full-time job. What's the difference? Training. It's not optional for Angie. It's the investment that determines which dog she becomes. Angie loves other dogs (big and small) and does great with cats. She is housebroken, though like any puppy, accidents happen. She currently sleeps in a crate next to her foster's bed at night. One thing to know going in: Like MANY dogs, Angie has separation anxiety. She is crate trained but being alone is hard for her. She gets vocal and distressed. She's improving, and a good bone helps, but 8 hours alone daily is not the right fit. She does best in a home where someone is around for a good part of the day. She is not a good fit for aparment living. If you are a confident, loving, active adopter who is committed to training and can give her structure and presence, Angie will give you everything she has. Adoption Fee: $350 -- includes spay, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations, and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Apply at pawsandprayers.org/adoption-application (only applications through this link are accepted). Contact your vet to authorize us to speak with them as soon as you apply -- applications will not move forward without it. Questions: 4leggedlayover@gmail.comMay 19, 2026, 4:01 pm

Story
Meet Waddles!Waddles is a 6-year-old female dog weighing around 73 pounds who is looking for a calm and understanding home. She can be a bit sensitive when meeting new friends and prefers to take things at a slower pace, but with patience and respect, her true personality begins to shine.Waddles is interested in new dogs, but doesn`t seem to want to live with another dog in her forever home. She shows potential to coexist with visiting dogs, but she would prefer to be the only animal in her forever home. Because of her sensitive nature, Waddles would do best in a home with older children only. Kids ages 13 and up should understand how to respect her boundaries, as she does not enjoy excessive handling. Waddles is very intense with small animals, so she cannot live in a home with cats. If you’re looking for a mellow companion who values quiet moments and a gentle approach, Waddles may be the perfect fit. Stop by the Humane Society of Summit County to meet her and learn more about how she could fit into your home.

Story
Meet Grayson! He is a 4.5 year old Shepherd mix who weighs about 55 pounds. Grayson is a sweet boy who enjoys meeting new people, but is just as happy to occupy his own time. He is a typical shepherd who loves to be outside exploring and can`t wait to go outside for his morning walk. He enjoys playing with his tennis ball and is always ready to play. He arrived in our care underweight and still has a bit of weight to gain, so his favorite thins right now is food! Grayson loves to get snacks and is always ready to show off some tricks in exchange for a tasty treat. Grayson can be very forward with dogs, so he would need a dog that is more relaxed at first if he were to live with another dog. With a slow introduction he shows potential to live with another dog if they`re a good fit, but he wouldn`t mind being the only dog either. He doesn`t like to share his food, so if there were kids in his forever home they would need to be ages 13 and older so they can respect his space. Since Grayson is such a sweetheart he shows potential with younger visiting kids in his forever home. If Grayson looks like the perfect pup for you, stop by today to meet this handsome boy!

Story
Introducing Beardsley!The spirited 5-year-old Shepherd mix weighing 65 lbs, with boundless energy and a heart as big as his goofy grin! Beardsley is ready to fill your home with laughter and love, bringing joy to everyone he meets. Outgoing and playful, he loves making new friends and showing off his fun-loving personality.Beardsley would do best living in a home that has plenty of space for him to roam indoors and maybe a fenced in backyard for him to run around in. If there are children in his forever home, Beardsley would do best with kids ages 10 and up due to his boundless energy. His affectionate nature and enthusiasm make him a wonderful playmate and family companion. Beardsley is nervous with new dogs and can take time to trust new canine friends. If he were to live in a home with another dog he would need very slow introductions and management to form a lasting bond. Because of his insecurity with other dogs, he would likely prefer to be the only dog in his forever home. He is very excited when he sees cats and small animals, so he needs a home with no other small animals to ensure a successful transition to a new home! Beardsley’s future home will be one filled with laughter, love, and plenty of adventures. With his goofy grin, spirited energy, and loyal heart, he’s sure to become the best adventure buddy you never knew you were missing.Ready to welcome the energy and enthusiasm of Beardsley into your life? Come meet him at the Humane Society of Summit County, 752 West Portage Trail, Akron, OH 44313, or call 330-487-0333 ext. 803 to learn more!
