Story
Meet Billie Bob — a gentle soul with a heart full of sweetness!Billie Bob is a quiet, lovable boy who doesn’t have much to say—he’s not much of a barker and prefers to show his affection in softer ways. He enjoys spending time outside and will happily take care of his business, though he’ll need a watchful eye as he’s still working on perfecting his house manners. Belly bands have been a helpful tool for him in the meantime.This handsome guy has a bit of an independent streak—he likes being outdoors so much that coming back inside can take a little encouragement. Sometimes a tasty treat like lunch meat or cheese does the trick, but not always—Billie Bob likes to keep you guessing!When meeting new people, Billie Bob can be shy and timid at first. He needs a patient, understanding home that will give him the time and space to build trust. Once he warms up, though, his sweet nature truly shines.Billie Bob is crate trained and has done well around other dogs, especially during his time at the vet. While his experience with cats is limited, he didn’t seem bothered by a feline friend wandering nearby. He also appears to do just fine around children, including his current family’s grandchildren.At around 6 years old, this charming mixed-breed boy is ready to find a calm, loving home where he can continue to grow in confidence and feel safe. With a little patience and a lot of love, Billie Bob will make a wonderfully loyal companion. You may apply to adopt Billie Bob at www.pawpatroldayton.com/adopt. His adoption fee is $210 and he is vaccinated, heartworm tested, microchipped, and neutered. All of our animals are vaccinated, micro-chipped and spayed/neutered before being adopted.

Story
This sweet girl was an owner surrender until she was adopted by a roommate 5 years ago, and then abandoned by the same roommate. Abby’s mom took on the responsibility of caring for her despite having her own pets. She had two feline brothers, one feline sister and one k9 brother. Abby is very protective and reactive to other dogs, so she would do well in a home where she’s the only pet. She is a senior and has some urinary leaking as a result, especially in her sleep. She loves walks, loves to play, and has high energy but loves a snuggle. She’s very sweet and very spunky. She does get separation anxiety and needs to be crated when left alone. We don’t know much about her history before we adopted her, but I suspect abuse and abandonment may have been at play, so she needs lots of love. Abby’s mom loves her- but recently got sick and had to move away to be treated. Treatments are very physically demanding and she is unable to give Abby the love and care she deserves.

Story
Meet Bagel, an adorable small breed mixed puppy ready to steal your heart! At 12 weeks old and only about 10 pounds, this boy is pure joy! He’s loving play time and working on learning basic manners, house training and crate training. He is currently living in a home with young kids (four and three years old), cats and a dog. Perfect for a family seeking a playful companion, Bagel is eager to find his forever home!  All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   June 19, 2026, 11:46 am

A spirited Jack Russell terrier mix with a heart twice the size of her tiny frame, Glimmer’s journey hasn't been a typical one—but she’s ready for her happiest chapter yet. A Brave Journey Glimmer’s story began in Alabama, but her dreams were much bigger than the Deep South. Despite being completely blind, this courageous puppy didn't let the unknown slow her down. She hopped on a transport and traveled all the way to Ohio, trusting that her forever family was waiting somewhere at the end of the road. Personality & Perks Don't let her lack of sight fool you—Glimmer navigates the world with her sharp nose, her perky ears, and an incredible sense of joy.• Toy Enthusiast: She has a "Jack Russell" engine under the hood! Glimmer loves toys that squeak, crinkle or jingle. She uses her keen hearing to track her playthings and will proudly "hunt" them down in the living room.• Professional Cuddler: Once playtime is over, Glimmer’s favorite place to be curled up in your lap under a warm blanket. She lives for human connection and will happily snooze in your lap for hours.• Resilient Spirit: She is a fast learner who maps out her environment quickly. She doesn't see obstacles; she just sees more things to sniff! The Ideal Home Glimmer is looking for a family that understands that "special needs" really just means "extra special love." She would thrive in a home where:• The furniture stays in a consistent place so she can map her surroundings.• Her humans are ready for plenty of playtime followed by serious snuggle sessions.• A patient hand is ready to guide her as she continues to grow and learn. Glimmer may not be able to see your face, but she can certainly feel your heart. She’s traveled hundreds of miles just to find you—are you the one she’s been waiting for?

Story
My dog's name is Winona. I got her from the Franklin County Animal Shelter. She is 10 years old. She is very loveable and friendly. She does sometimes tend to get scared by thunderstorms, loud noises and she is afraid of balloons. Unfortunately, I no longer have the time to take care her along with all of mine and my children's needs. I'm just looking for a wonderful individual or family to take her in and provide her with just as much love as she's already been given by us.
