Meet Krissy!! 💁‍♀️✨ Krissy strutted in as a stray on 1/9/26, and we think she’s about 3 years old. Just LOOK at that smile—she knows she’s gorgeous and she’s not afraid to show it. This big, beautiful girl is full of energy, happiness, and main-character vibes. Treats? Meh. Toys? Kinda. Attention? YES, PLEASE. Krissy’s love language is 100% human admiration, and she’s happiest when all eyes (and hands) are on her. She’s super sweet, very affectionate, and always ready to charm her way into your heart. If you’re looking for a confident, joyful, attention-loving best friend, Krissy is your girl. She’s available for adoption, so don’t keep her waiting—she’s got places to be and people to impress! 📍 Krissy is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov Adoption is an application process 🐾

I'm Nami! I am a balanced energy girl who loves to learn new things and play with my dog friends! I am OK with Cats. Best with older children... I have a calm, cool demeanor and a LOT of resilience! I am a mixed breed, but my personality is definitely that of a German shepherd and huskey! I am currently being boarded with a trainer to work on some resource guarding issues. I would do well with experienced handlers, especially those with training experience. Let's be best friends!!

Zenna

German Shepherd Dog

Vermilion, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Zenna! Zenna is a 1-year-old female German Shepherd mix! She weighs 48 pounds, but we suspect still has some filling out to do. Zenna totally has a German Shepherd personality and a big bark. She is crate-trained and potty-trained. She was rescued from an Ohio pound and came to us with a lack of understanding of rules and boundaries. Foster mom and family have worked very hard to instill rules and boundaries. She is young and still learning, so she will need someone to continue to work with her and be willing to take her to a trainer. We are looking for an active person or family with large breed dog experience. She loves other dogs, but can be a lot for them to handle, so they need to be good at playing! She is good with kids, but unfortunately, she does not care who is standing in her way and will plow you down, so we are looking for a home with kids over 8. She will chase the cats if they run from her, but she is not being aggressive; she just wants them to play with her. If the cats don't run, she doesn't chase. She will also be good as an only dog as long as you are willing to entertain her. She is gogogo, but will eventually settle down into a routine. Adoption Fee: $400 Place an application to be considered to adopt our girl Zenna! Her DNA result is also included in her photos! https://www.safeharboranimalrescue.org/application
