Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Wynter is a happy little sweetheart with a big personality packed into her adorable 10-pound frame! This affectionate young girl absolutely loves being the center of attention and is always ready to soak up every bit of love, praise, and head rubs her people are willing to give. Like many puppy mill survivors, Wynter is still discovering all the wonderful parts of being a cherished family dog — and she is embracing the good life beautifully! She enjoys cozy naps in her favorite bed, tasty meals and snacks, and occasional bursts of playful zoomies around the yard. Her foster family lovingly refers to her as a “chunky monkey,” and Wynter certainly never misses an opportunity for a good snack. Wynter is a gentle, social girl who gets along very well with her foster dog siblings and would truly benefit from having a confident companion dog of similar size/energy level in her forever home to continue helping her build confidence and learn the routines of family life. She thrives with companionship and enjoys having furry friends nearby. Because Wynter loves attention and interaction, she would do best in a more active household where she has plenty of companionship, affection, and opportunities to be involved in daily life. She does have a little stubborn streak that only adds to her charm! Wynter sometimes likes to come inside on her own schedule and can occasionally hesitate when walking through open doorways. Her forever family will need patience, understanding, and a sense of humor as she continues gaining confidence and learning that the world is a safe place. Because safety is so important for puppy mill survivors, Wynter requires a securely fenced yard where she can safely explore, relax, and enjoy her outdoor adventures. Wynter’s ideal forever home will be one filled with kindness, patience, routine, activity, and lots of affection. In return, this sweet little girl will reward her family with endless love, adorable companionship, and the joy of watching her confidence continue to blossom every day. Wynter’s adoption donation is $600 She is fully vetted including spay, microchip, dental cleaning, current vaccinations, negative heartworm test, and she is current on heartworm and flea prevention. Wynter is ready to find the forever family who will show her just how wonderful life can truly be.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE:   If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.  If you go to the  individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog. Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix.  We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here:  http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog.  We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved.  It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable.  If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence.  Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.  The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms.  The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information.  If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed.  Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.  No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.   At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.  We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.  November 8, 2026, 12:47 pm
