Hi, my name is Remington - nice to me you! I am listed as "special needs" because my vision is limited due to cataracts. I am not in any pain but I do need steroids - eye drops - the cost is about $12 a month using an online pharmacy. Even though my eyesight is limited, it doesn't slow me down! One of my favorite things to do is to play fetch - we play every night! Check out my video in my bio pics - I think I'm pretty good (as long as the ball isn't thrown too far), don't you? I am a silly girl who just likes to play. I get along really well with people and dogs. One of my favorite things is playing with my foster siblings - even though I will play with everyone, I usually will gravitate towards one pal at a time. I can be a little reserved at first with my humans but once I trust you, I'm very affectionate and like to give hugs! ***Special needs - I need eyedrops for my cataracts*** ADOPTION FEE: $300 (All MVPC dogs are heartworm-tested and on prevention, completely vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, crate-trained and house-trained) ADOPTER: MUST have breed experience BIRTHDAY: 9/28/22 FENCE: Required (an electric fence is not an acceptable form of containment) DOG FRIENDLY: Yes DOGS IN HOME: Yes CATS: Unknown CHILDREN: Yes - 8 years and older I AM READY TO GO HOME!!

Zeus is a very good boy with a calm, loving personality. He is friendly, affectionate, and playful, but can be a little shy at first until he gets comfortable. Once he warms up, he is loyal and sweet.He has lived peacefully with an adult German Shepherd and has done great around cats, so he adjusts well around other animals. He has also completed training with Bulletproof Dog Training and understands basic commands.Zeus is not being rehomed because he is a bad dog. He is a great dog, but with my current work, military, training, and business schedule, I cannot give him the time and consistency he deserves.We are looking for a responsible, stable home that will continue giving him structure, attention, and love. A meet-and-greet will be required, and we will be careful to make sure he goes to the right home.

Story
Meet Joey 🖤🐾 At just 11 months old and 33 lbs, Joey is the perfect medium-sized companion with a heart as big as his puppy eyes. This handsome black pup is the total package—playful, gentle, and already showing what an amazing family dog he’s going to be. Joey has been thriving in his foster home! He’s living with five dogs and two cats and has done beautifully with everyone. He loves to play, takes corrections respectfully from other dogs, and easily matches the energy of his friends—whether they’re social butterflies or a bit more selective. He’s still got that fun puppy energy, but it’s balanced with a sweet, easy-going personality. Joey is doing great with his routine—no accidents so far with regular potty breaks—and he’s already crate trained, settling in nicely and sleeping quietly through the night. One of Joey’s most endearing qualities is his gentle curiosity. New textures or unfamiliar objects might make him a little cautious at first, but he bravely investigates and quickly gains confidence. It’s honestly the cutest thing to watch. ✨ Dog friendly ✨ Cat friendly ✨ Crate trained ✨ Doing great with housetraining ✨ Sweet, playful, and eager to learn Joey doesn’t jump on furniture, has wonderful house manners for a pup, and most importantly—he’s just pure goodness. The kind of dog that quietly works his way into your heart and never leaves. He’s going to make someone incredibly happy. Could that be you? 🐶💛

These pups are in Kettering, Ohio too!
