Story
He's 16 months old. His name is JJ. I've had them almost a year he came from a litter of five I picked up the last one. He's energetic intelligent and loves to play. My work schedule doesn't allow me to spend as much time with them as I would like. He's good with other animals just skittish at first.

Story
Please contact Amber (alfedor@sbcglobal.net) for more information about this pet.  Bruiser has come a long way in his foster mom’s house. He came in very timid and scared. He is still iffy to strangers but he can be trained and worked with. A trainer has come and started working with Bruiser. He believes that if we do multiple meets Bruiser will trust the adopter with ease as he is just afraid. This will happen with a muzzle on don’t be afraid of this he just needs it to help with anxiety and it does.    Bruiser is looking for a chill home with limited guests. He does adjust to friendly dogs.  But we would recommend him be in a single dog home. He is a good boy and being house broken is a win. He does have fear aggression. Bruiser has the personality of a chihuahua needing a hands off adjustment time. If you are interested in Bruiser and would like more information please email his foster mom at alfedor@sbcglobal.net   Bruiser’s adoption fee is $100.          All Paws and Prayers animals are up to date on vaccinations (age appropriate) and are given monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Adoption fee also includes spay / neuter and microchipping. Please complete a non-obligatory adoption application at https://pawsandprayers.org/adoption-application/ Please read the entire bio before emailing the foster with questions.

Story
This little girl is fast on her paws and always ready for action! Certainly not for the faint of heart! Kimmy has a knack for learning new things. She sits nicely for treats and waits for you to throw a command or trick at her. She is super smart, eager to learn and absorbs it like a sponge. She strikes me as a pup that will excel in agility. One of Kimmy’s favorites is sitting and waiting for you to throw a ball. She loves to fetch and takes off with it. She zoomies with it in her mouth. If she brings it back, she drops it a little way in front of you and only brings herself into your space. Kimmy loves her walks. She’s a Type A when it comes to walks. She tries to cover as much ground as possible. This little girl has no time for slow a**es! She needs a harness or she will choke and cough. She slows down as the walk progresses. Kimmy is quick to respond to sounds. Right now, she comes 90% of the time when called. She is working on 100% recall! Kimmy is a year old, 14lb Jack Russell Terrier mix. She is looking for a semi-active or active family who enjoys activities as much as she does. Commands, tricks, agility, hikes, runs, car rides, bring them on! Kimmy is athletic, not your lay-across-lap kinda pup When all the activities are done for the day, she will happily lay beside you or across your lap! Kimmy is happy to self-entertain with toys if you have something going on. Kimmy is wonderful with dogs and kids.

Story
Be careful what you name your dog! Rascal is a rascal! An adorable one, that is! He is super cute and handsome, so he gets free passes and gets away with s*** :/ I mean, how do you get mad at that face ♥️ Rascal is a happy, fun boy. He jumps to greet. His high energy can be contagious! He makes you want to jump and get happy with him. And that smile …. sure makes a lady swoon! His first outside time of the day is filled with much excitement and energy to burn off. He is so excited to be outside, he half runs, half walks until he settles into a rhythm. Rascal makes a good running mate. He likes to run with you or chase you because that’s what buddies do ♥️ Rascal loves toys. He tugs. He carries it in his mouth to show off. He likes to run after a flying ball but doesn’t bring it back. He just likes the chase. He is super smart. If you throw a ball over a clear wall or a fence, he runs around the object to get to the ball. You can’t fool him. Rascal loves treats. He sits nicely for treats and takes them very politely. This is amazing since Rascal sometimes plays with his mouth and teeth. Rascal is about a year old, 17lb, Jack Russell Terrier mix. He is looking for an active home with a young, playful pup(s) like him so they can be besties and partners in crime. He plays better with bigger dogs. He can be a little rough with smaller dogs. A home with older children who engage with him is a plus. A fenced yard for him to run around in is preferred.

Story
❤️ MEET WENDELL! 14 YEARS YOUNG AND STILL STEALING HEARTS! ❤️ At 18 pounds, Wendell is proof that the best things come in small, slightly wobbly packages! This 14-year-old Jack Russell mix isn’t looking to run marathons or climb mountains. He’s much more interested in good food, cozy beds, leisurely strolls, and keeping his favorite humans company. A little about Wendell: 🐶 Gets along with other dogs and is good with older children. 🏡 Potty trained when given regular opportunities to go outside. 🦮 Walks nicely on a leash and knows “sit.” 🛏️ Loves a cozy dog bed and is happiest lounging nearby. 🍗 Food is definitely one of his love languages! If you’re cooking or eating, he’ll be right there supervising. 🧸 Enjoys balls, squeaky toys, and snuffle mats. ❤️ Mellow, affectionate, low-energy, and just happy to be included. A few things to know about our senior sweetheart: Wendell has some age-related challenges that mean he’ll need a little extra consideration in his forever home. He has vestibular issues that cause him to stumble, particularly on grass and when navigating steps. His night vision isn’t the best, and he has some hearing impairment. He isn’t a fan of his crate and may voice his opinions, but he keeps it clean and sleeps through the night once settled into his routine. He’s not particularly fond of cats. He doesn’t always take treats gently, so little fingers should be mindful! What kind of home does Wendell need? A quiet, comfortable home with someone around most of the day would be ideal. He needs: Someone who can take him outside every couple of hours to maintain his potty routine. Easy access outdoors with minimal steps. A safe environment where his balance challenges won’t put him at risk. A soft bed, a few toys, and humans who don’t mind having a furry little kitchen supervisor! Wendell isn’t asking for much. He just wants a safe place to spend his golden years, someone to share snacks with, and a cozy spot to curl up after a short stroll. Senior dogs have so much love left to give, and Wendell has earned the chance to spend his next chapter surrounded by it. Could you be the soft landing this sweet senior gentleman deserves? Age: 14 years Adoption Fee: $200 MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm.

Story
💔🐾 Meet Sonic & Loki — Two Senior Hearts Who Deserve to Go Home Together 🐾💔 Sometimes, life changes in ways our dogs simply don’t understand. And sometimes, after giving their humans years of unconditional love, they find themselves wondering where their family went. That is the story of Sonic and Loki. 🐾 Sonic — 12-year-old Catahoula Mix 🐾 Loki — 10-year-old Jack Russell Mix ❤️ Adopted many years ago and have spent their lives together 🏠 Their family’s circumstances changed after their mom and dad divorced ✈️ Dad moved to South Carolina, where Sonic and Loki enjoyed a new chapter of life 🌴 They traveled, went on adventures, and even enjoyed trips to the beach! 🏖️ 💔 Unfortunately, circumstances eventually landed them in a shelter 🚗 Now they have found themselves back in Ohio with MBR, hoping for a second chance 🐶 Great with other dogs 👧 Great with children 🐱 Cats are currently unknown 🏡 Potty trained 🐶🐶 They have each other—and that matters tremendously 🤝 For only the second time in MBR history, we are asking that two dogs be adopted together 🛏️ Sonic has some crate aversion and relies on Loki to help him feel safe ❤️ Loki is Sonic's comfort, security, and familiar friend 🥺 At 12 and 10 years old, they should not have to start over alone 🌅 These boys have already shared a lifetime of memories—we want them to have their forever chapter together Sonic and Loki have already experienced more change than any dog should have to endure. They had a family. They had a home. They had adventures, car rides, trips to the beach, and the comfort of knowing where they belonged. Then life changed. And somehow, through all of those changes, they still have each other. 💔❤️ For Sonic, Loki isn't simply another dog. Loki is his security blanket. When Sonic is unsure or uncomfortable, he looks to Loki to help him feel safe. After losing so much familiar comfort, we cannot imagine asking him to lose Loki, too. That is why MBR is making an incredibly rare request. 🐾 For only the second time in MBR history, we are asking for these two dogs to be adopted together. 🐾 They don't need a perfect home. They don't need someone looking for puppies or endless adventures. They simply need someone who will look at two senior dogs who have already given so much of their lives to their humans and say: "You don't have to lose each other. You're home now." 🏡❤️ Sonic and Loki have spent years loving their family. They deserve to spend their remaining years together, surrounded by love, comfort, and the security of finally knowing they aren't going anywhere. If you have room in your heart—and your home—for two very special senior boys, please consider giving Sonic and Loki the forever they have been waiting for. 🥺🐾❤️ Age: Loki 10 years Sonic 12 years Adoption Fee: $400 for both $200 each MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm.
