DODGER

German Shepherd Dog Collie

Male, Young

Amherst, OH

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Dodger. He was saved from an overcrowded shelter where he was at risk of euthanasia. He is now fully vetted, neutered and all vaccines. Dodger did test positive for Ehrlichia before he came to us and was put on a regimen of doxycycline. He should need no further treatment and has no symptoms. He loves to play with other dogs and would benefit from another dog in the household. Probably not a good candidate for a home with cats. He is a friendly guy but young children may not be a good fit due to his exuberance . I do prefer a fenced yard for Dodger so he can play and burn off energy. His foster dad has been working on commands with him and Dodger is a quick learner and doing great. He has mastered many commands. He is a smart leaner and wants to please. He will heed a caregiver willing to exercise him. His foster family has told us that he loves to swim in their pond. His adoption fee is $200.

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Dixie is a sweet loving dog. She is 6 years old. She gets along well with people, kids and pets that she is familiar with. However, she is aggressive towards dogs that she is not familiar with. She has a slight lesion on her nose from Canine Lupus. But she does not seemed bothered by it and doesn't seem to need treatment. We live in a neighborhood with a lot of other small dogs, we do things to keep her from interacting with other dogs, but it is too risky for us. We hope we can find a good home where someone has an environment where she can be kept out of trouble. Hopefully someone in North East Ohio/North Ohio.

Story

Hi! I’m Wren ♥️ Let me tell you my story 📚 I used to have a friend named Winnie 😔 Out on the streets, it was always me and her together. We slept curled up against each other at night because it was cold and scary, and we only had each other. She was sicker than I understood, but I stayed close anyway. She was my safety, my family, my whole world 🌎 People finally tried to help us. They fought for Winnie 😔 They rushed her to emergency care and hoped maybe love had found us in time. But sometimes life is cruel to dogs who have been forgotten for too long, and Winnie didn’t make it. She did get to experience six days of a warm home and love 🥹 I don’t really understand where she went. I just know one minute she was beside me, and then suddenly I was alone 😔 After Winnie died, I ended up at the shelter. Loud noises, strange people, and so many barking dogs, I was terrified. I kept waiting for her to come back for me, but she never did 💔 That’s when they decided to save me too. They named me Wren, but the truth is I think I’m here because people saw how much Winnie mattered. They didn’t want her story to end with both of us being lost. So in honor of her, they tagged me and promised my life would mean something too 🥹 I’m safe now. I am fully vetted, I am fed, I am warm. But I’m still learning how to stop being afraid all the time 🥺 I’m very shy when I meet new people. I want to trust you, I really do, but the world hasn’t always been kind to me. Sometimes I hang back and just watch quietly, trying to figure out if I’m safe. But if you are patient with me, something soft begins to happen. I’ll start following you from room to room. I’ll lie nearby just because being close to you feels nice. I’ll look at you with my whole heart once I realize you aren’t going to hurt me. I like other dogs. They make me feel calmer. I’m gentle, quiet, and honestly just looking for a place where nobody expects me to be perfect right away ♥ I know I’m not the easiest dog in the world 😔 I may not run into your arms the first day we meet. I may need time to learn what love feels like when it’s safe and permanent. But I promise once I trust you, I will love you in the quietest, deepest way. I survived the streets. I survived losing Winnie. Now I’m just hoping there’s someone out there who will choose me 🥹 Not because they pity me, but because they see me. Maybe Winnie’s story is the reason mine gets to continue ♥️ Love, Wren

Story

I’m a super chill guy who just loves being around my people and other pups 🐶 I’m always down to hang out, whether that means going for a nice walk or just relaxing together. I’m really good on a leash and pay close attention, so walks with me are easy and fun 🚶‍♂️✨ I love other dogs and get along great with everyone, but I’m also really respectful if someone isn’t in the mood to play. I totally get it and will just do my own thing 😊 I’m not aggressive at all with people or dogs, I seriously love everyone I meet 💕 More than anything, I’m just dreaming of my forever home 🏡 somewhere I can have a consistent routine, feel safe, and get nice and cozy with my humans 🛋️ I promise to bring lots of love, calm energy, and happy moments into your life 💖

Story

Hi, I’m Danny 🐶💛 I’m 7 months old and basically a professional love bug. If you sit next to me, I will melt right into your hand like I was made for it 🫶 If I’m already laying down and you walk over, I’ll roll right onto my back for belly rubs (it’s kind of my signature move) 🐾 I can be a little shy when we first meet, but give me a minute and I’ll be your shadow. I love being close to my people, sneaking in hand kisses, and just existing right by your side 🥹 My story didn’t start out so great. I was found as a stray in Houston with a broken leg that didn’t heal the right way 💔 But don’t worry, my rescue team is getting me all fixed up so I can feel my very best again 💪🐕 What I really want is a forever home where I can love and be loved every single day. Whoever gets me is seriously the luckiest 🍀 I promise to be your sweetest, cuddliest, most loyal boy 💛
