Story
**Please read the entire bio before submitting an application.  Thank you!** King is a petite one year old Jack Russell Terrier who was living as a stray on the streets of Cincinnati. Although he has a lot of hesitation about people, he has opened up and learned to trust his foster mom.  King is a true velcro dog, happiest when snuggled up with his person or following them around the house. He also enjoys playing with toys, zooming around the backyard, roughhousing with his canine siblings, and napping in the sun with the cats.   King is making great strides in warming up to strangers but remains cautious, especially around men. While he may bark or retreat when feeling uncertain, he has never shown aggression. He is potty trained and crate trained but still does not walk on a leash, so he will need continued patience and support in that area.   King’s ideal home is one where he feels secure, can adjust at his own pace, and has a patient, understanding owner committed to earning his trust. He would benefit from having another dog in the home to look to for reassurance and guidance. Because of his sensitive nature, he would do best in a child-free home. With time and love, King has the potential to become an incredibly loyal and affectionate companion.  King does require a home with a fenced yard and he would prefer to be in a home with another dog companion. He is neutered, vaccinated and micro chipped. His adoption fee is $300.00. Adoption Process: Step 1: Complete a "no obligation" application located on our website at pawprintsnky.com under the applications tab. Step 2: PawPrints will review the application, verifying Vet and personal references as well as landlord requirements/restrictions (if applicable) Step 3: IF your application is approved, we will call you to schedule a meet and greet for you to meet the pet. Step 4: If the meet and greet goes well, we will schedule the home visit.May 24, 2025, 10:31 am

Story
DOB: January 2023 Weight: 11lb Breed: Jack Russel We are rehoming Wombat due to an international relocation to a country with exceptionally strict policies and procedures (and cost). She is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations, and has monthly simparica trio. She was born in Florida. She has no illnesses or injuries. She is a sweet, intelligent dog, but is a teenager so can be a little cheeky and quite hilarious. She has really started settling down and is SUPER gentle with my 3yo and 7month old. Wombat is part way crate trained (will put herself in there to eat, and when told “in your house”) - we don’t yet leave her unattended in the house as she is still exploratory. She likes so spend time outside in a fenced yard, and is learning to walk on a leash.

Story
Huckleberry Finn - or Finn as we call him is an adorable low rider looking for his next adventure with you! Our best guess is that he is a 2 year old Jack Russel Terrier / Basset Hound mix. He is approximately 30 pounds and full of LOVE!!  Finn came to SAAP ready to find his furever home but sadly we discovered that he was heartworm positive. So SAAP stepped in to get him the help and healing that he needed. Fin is ready to put all of that behind him and set out on a mission to find his family!  Finn has been good with all the dogs in his foster home. He ignored the resident cat. His favorite place is with his humans! He loves doing rolly polly’s for belly rubs! We are working on potty training. He had been on steroids since he arrived at SAAP for treatment (which heightens the need to drink and urinate) and so we are now working to reinforce the need to potty outside. If you are looking to add to your family, look no further because this little boy is the absolute best! Apply today to meet this cutie patootie!! May 6, 2025, 12:43 pm
