Story
Meet Babs! Babs is estimated to be around 12 years old but you would be surprised to see how high she jumps (straight in the air!) when she sees someone she knows! She's equally excited about her food and treats too! Babs loves to go for walks and walks very politely on the leash. She and another dog came to us after being found by the Wood County Dog Shelter tied to farm equipment.  She is more than ready to retire with the amenities of an indoor dog lifestyle  Kids: Babs is an older dog who may need to be homed with kids older than 12 as to understand and respect animal boundaries. Dogs: Babs does not like other dogs. Cats: Babs does not like cats and should not be homed with them. Babs is spayed, microchipped, and fully up to date on all vaccinations and preventions. For more information or to schedule a meet-n-greet, please call us at 419-352-7339 or email us at wchsadopt@gmail.com ##2852401##

Story
We want to find her a home that is a better fit for her needs.She is an extremely energetic girl who gets overly excited and plays very rough. She has a tendency to nip and bite, particularly with women and children. She has not drawn blood, and she has never hurt me (the only male in the house), but her behavior has frightened the kids, and we need to put their safety and comfort first.I don't believe she is intentionally trying to hurt anyone, but she needs someone who has time to train her. She would benefit from consistent training, exercise, patience, and an owner who can help her learn appropriate boundaries. She has ALOT of potential to be a good dog but we do not have time to train her. She does have a weight issue and will need high protein food only.

Story
She is anxious, nervous, and barky at first. When she warms up, she is just the sweetest, most loving, attentive, nurturing, lap-baby you ever met! She has been with us for 10 years of our journey across the land as an Army family and now we are settling here in Ohio. My in-laws were allergic, so we had to get a place pretty fast for the dogs and wound up in a two bedroom apartment that is tiny and split our family (husband now has to stay at his parents because only 5 people can be here, so it's tiiiny.) She has been miserable and lethargic, she is literally the best dog in the entire world and she deserves the moon, the idea of letting go kills me, but I will for the right person ONLY. I think she'd do better with a woman. She is gentle and sweet to our mini-dachshund, loving to my 4 kids that she has helped raise, and she is a dog that likes to go, even running errands all day in the car she is down for the ride! I want to build a rapport and know our girl will be loved!

Story
We were brought Sadie about 7 days ago. We do not know a lot about dogs and did not realize the amount of exercise and training and what a time commitment she would be. Neither did we realize she would keep growing. Sadie is a female. We are told She is around 8 months old. She is potty trained and is good with our 10 and 14 year old kids. However, she is strong and pulls when she sees a squirrel, bunny, cat, etc and the kids can’t handle her in these situations. She eats well, poops and pees just fine and rests well too. We do not have a fence nor the time to exercise her as needed and to train her as needed. She needs a good home with a more qualified family. Because the kids are needed to take her out when they get home from school and this is sometimes hard for them to handle her - we would like to surrender her as soon as possible.

Story
Aries is a 2 year old Shepherd mix. She came in only weighing 32 lbs and is now a much healthier 46 lbs. She will still gain a little weight yet. Aries is housetrained, cratetrained, and rides great in the car. Her foster parents are working on her with leash training. She will need a fenced in yard or to stay on leash outside. Aries is very active and playful. She loves playing ball, tug with rope, and playing with the other dogs. She gets along with everyone, dogs, and cats. Aries is very affectionate and likes to be with you. She does jump up, although her foster parents are working with her on it. We think a home without small children might be best until she learns not to jump on them. Aries has been vet checked, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and is on heartworm/flea prevention. If you'd like to adopt Aries, please fill out an adoption application here: https://aplmercer.com/adoption-application Adoption fee is $300
