Story
Are you looking for an agility dog, a flyball dog, or a jogging buddy? Buddy is your boy. Buddy appears to be a Jack Russell Terrier/other terrier mix. He is around 1 year of age and weighs 24 pounds. He was found under a bridge in one of the local dumping areas. It is no surprise that Buddy was scared when we first got him, but he quickly warmed up. He loves getting attention from his people. He loves pets and being close to his humans. He loves belly rubs and will roll over on his back whenever you bend over to pick him up. Buddy is small but mighty. He is muscular and high-energy and requires a lot of exercise. He loves to run and wrestle with other dogs. Sometimes, he can be naughty and will intimidate one of our more submissive dogs. Yet he backs down when one of the chihuahuas or another dog puts him in his place. Buddy is generally a good boy, and training is a work in progress. He is smart, listens well, and comes when called. He is crate-trained and fairly well-behaved in the house. We are working on teaching him manners. He gets jumpy when excited or wants attention, and needs more training. He responds well to "no" and the "tsch" correction (as used by Cesar Milan). He is NOT a fence climber. It would be best if applicants are experienced with the breed and are willing to hire a trainer if necessary. Buddy would love his new family to play with him, take him on walks, cuddle, and give him a lot of affection and belly rubs. Buddy must be an inside dog and a loved member of the family. He must be walked on a leash and have a secure, fenced yard to run and play. Buddy is neutered, tattooed, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. He is heartworm-negative and receives monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Buddy is located in Texas but can be transported after he is adopted. His adoption fee includes the cost of ground transport by a reputable and trusted transport company to several scheduled stops in Ohio - including but not limited to Columbus, Cincinnati, and Akron OH. Please email 2manydogstx@gmail.com if you would like to adopt this sweet, active little guy.

Story
Juniper is a two year old Jack Russell Terrier mix weighing just 11 pounds.  She’s looking forward to leaving 2024 in her past as she was found abandoned in the cold in a box.  Things are looking up for her already and 2025 will be her year!  Her three favorite things involve people, food and enrichment!  Though she is small, she is mighty and would thrive in an active household, with or without another dog.  As a terrier, she packs a lot of personality into a small package!  She’s inquisitive, sassy and intelligent.  Once her enrichment needs are met, she will melt into your lap and snuggle.  She’ll need a home without shared walls with a securely fenced yard and guardians who will give her the enrichment she needs.  Juniper's adoption fee is $350. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative. If you are interested in Juniper, apply at rescuedohio.org to become an approved adopter and a meet & greet can be set up once approved. ##2249110##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Introducing Russ ~ Hub Cap! Little Russ has a sensitive side. He is very loveable if you give him a little time. Life probably was not all that good to him, so he is a little cautious. His handler in the prison program said that he has come a long way. He is a quiet guy who does not bark and prefers soothing sounds and soft touches. He is not rowdy, so I bet he likes his friends the same. He is leash trained and crate-trained. Russ has been working on some commands in the prison program and is current on his vetting. He has not been kid or cat tested. He would love to continue his growth in his forever home. Russ will be quietly waiting.
