Story
MEET HEYY NOVA — 5 POUNDS OF PURE, UNFILTERED ATTITUDE! 7 years old. 5 pounds. 150-pound Mastiff mentality. Are you looking for a low-energy companion who will happily spend her days riding shotgun, eating snacks, and holding down the couch? Do you have room in your home for a tiny dictator who has absolutely NO idea she’s small? Then let us introduce you to HEYYYY NOVA! This girl is living proof that size means absolutely NOTHING when you have the confidence of a giant! A LITTLE ABOUT Heyy Nova: Part-time bear chaser, full-time security detail! Nova is the kind of girl who would chase a bear down the street like a tiny can of spicy bear spray. She doesn’t know fear, and she certainly doesn’t know her size! Road trip queen! She LOVES riding in the car. Just don’t be surprised if you stop for gas and come back to find yourself locked out while this tiny security guard barks at you from inside like you’ve got some explaining to do. Food is life! Hey loves to eat, and honestly, who doesn’t love a girl with a healthy appreciation for snacks? ️ Professional couch potato! She’s a low-energy girl who enjoys the finer things in life: relaxing, riding around, eating, and ruling her kingdom from the comfort of her throne. A little obedience goes a long way! She enjoys doing a smidgen of obedience, especially when there’s a good reason to participate. She doesn’t need to run a marathon, but she does need to understand that her new family is in charge! ✨ SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS ✨ Advanced obedience trained Knows RIGHT and HEEL on and off leash E-collar trained Knows her PLACE command Crate trained and potty trained Low-energy companion Loves car rides and relaxing with her people Fully vetted and spayed Tiny body, BIG opinions! She will need a confident, consistent leader who can provide structure, clear boundaries, and guidance. She genuinely believes she’s a 150-pound Mastiff trapped in a tiny pug-mix body, and somebody needs to help her understand that she doesn’t have to run the entire world! What about other dogs? She can live with other dogs, but we believe she’d be happiest as the only dog in the home, where she can soak up the attention and have a little less competition for her royal position. A dog-savvy adopter who appreciates her personality and can maintain structure will be her best match. AND THE SUPPORT DOESN’T END WHEN SHE GOES HOME! Her trainer at Voodoo K9, believe  A adoption is about more than finding a dog a couch. It’s about creating a successful, lifelong relationship so her adopter will receive: Individual training to help you learn how to work with her and build a solid relationship. Maintenance classes to keep her skills sharp and continue reinforcing good manners. Lifetime training support for the life of your dog, because we’re here for you long after adoption day! Apply for Heyy Nova on our website and we will get you in touch with her trainer in Lucasville! 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.   October 20, 2026, 4:35 pm

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Pumpkin! A Little Dog with a BIG Heart! At 26 pounds, Pumpkin may be a little girl with some pretty BIG ears, but her heart is even bigger! This adorable 2-year-old Pug/Boxer mix (our best guess) has been through more than any dog should ever have to endure. After her family moved and left her behind, Pumpkin and her puppies were found wandering the streets, searching for food and trying to survive. But despite everything she's been through, Pumpkin's sweet spirit has never faded. She has been an AMAZING momma to her babies and an even MORE amazing foster girl! Now, it's her turn to be someone's baby. Pumpkin is sweet, smart, affectionate, and full of personality! She gets along well with other dogs and would most likely do well with cats, too. She absolutely LOVES being petted, and if you're heading out for a drive, she'd be thrilled to ride shotgun right beside you! And just wait until you see her mealtime routine! This clever girl will SPIN and SIT before receiving her bowl of food. Talk about a smart cookie! She's eager to learn, loves attention, and is sure to bring so much joy and laughter to her forever home. After spending so much time taking care of everyone else, Pumpkin deserves a family who will finally take care of HER. A family who will give her a cozy bed, a full belly, endless belly rubs, adventures in the car, and all the love and security she should have had from the beginning. Pumpkin is ready for her happily ever after! She's given so much love to others. Now, she's waiting for someone to choose her, cherish her, spoil her rotten, and promise her that she'll never be left behind again. Could you be the forever family this big-eared, big-hearted girl has been waiting for? Adopt Pumpkin and let her be your passenger princess for life!

Story
Hi there, I'm Vernon! I am a super snuggly sweetheart. I have the the softest, rabbit-like fur you’ll ever touch. I'm a bulldog mix with the cutest underbite, really, I'm a total cuddlebug and love nothing more than curling up close for a nap—or playing joyfully with other dogs. Before rescue, I was surviving as a stray on the streets for months, too scared to trust despite many kindhearted attempts. When I finally decided it was okay to trust and taken in, I had some serious wounds from life outside — I got some TLC, antibiotics, and love. But that is all behind me now and my foster says I've healed beautifully, both inside and out. I have been told that I can have a very serious look but I am gentle, affectionate, and ready to bond deeply with a forever family. While I haven't met cats yet, I am at my best and confident when I am with other dogs and would thrive in a home with canine companions or loving humans who adore snuggles. Now that my rough days are behind me, I'm ready for a soft bed, full belly, and lots of love—maybe with you?
