Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Sylvester! This sweet boy was owner surrendered through no fault of his own and is now looking for a family to call his own. From the moment you meet him, it's hard not to fall in love. Sylvester is one of those puppies who just wants to be with his people. His favorite place is curled up in your lap, but when it's time to play, he's all in! He loves playing with people, wrestling with other puppies, and enjoying everything puppy life has to offer. Sylvester is a typical puppy, so he'll need a family that's ready to help him learn good manners and continue his basic training. His breed guess is a rat terrier mix, who are known to be smart and very active dogs.  Sylvester's adoption fee is $400. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. If you think Sylvester could be the perfect addition to your family, apply today at www.adoggie4you.org. We are located in Texas, and transport is available for an additional $250 to Washington, Portland (OR), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (KY), and along the East Coast.

Story
We adopted Sadie from a shelter litter at 8 weeks old and have had her for the last 11 years where she has always had her dog sister in the house. While she usually gets on fine with her sister and generally has patience for children (we have 2 young girls), she does has had several episodes of getting jealous over food or when in tight spaces (like riding on car trips) or when staying in other dogs' homes. She is definitely a dog that prefers her bubble where she can either roam outside and sniff out things or inside in her designated bed/spot. We are looking to rehome because we know that in the right situation where she is the sole dog or has space to go if she is getting nervous about something, she is a very loving animal who loves to greet you when you come home, clean up under the table after the kiddos, and hang out on mornings outside. She is used to regular exercise each day but we've had to keep her inside during our work days since moving to Cincinnati.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Kawliga!  Kawliga (Kaw-ly-ja) is a sweet young guy with a gentle personality and a playful side. He came to us with his sister, Sushi, after their family made the difficult decision to surrender them when they began going after the household chickens. Because of this, Kawliga will need a home without poultry or other small livestock. We're told that he got along well with the outdoor cats in his previous home and did great with children and other dogs, and also house trained.  Kawliga is an awesome dog. He's always smiling with tail wags, happy to meet everyone. He knows his name, and basic commands like sit. He's such a smart boy.  Kawliga is neutered, microchipped, heartworm and tick-borne disease negative (4DX), current on ProHeart for heartworm prevention, and protected with Bravecto. Adoption Fee: $350 Apply today at www.adoggie4you.org. Kawliga is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington, Kentucky, and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee.

Story
Little tripod PIERCE has recovered well from his amputation surgery and is ready to find his furever home! Pierce is a sweet, affectionate boy, about 8-10 months old and fully grown at 15 pounds. He spends his days charming his foster family, playing with his toys, playing with his foster siblings and just generally loving life. His 3 favorite times of day are play time, cuddle time and dinner time. Living on 3 legs doesn't slow him down a bit, he runs and plays with his foster siblings like any young dog. Pierce is a handsome mixed breed little guy, our best guess is a MinPin/Rat Terrier type mix. He navigates very well on 3 legs, he wasn't using the leg that was injured months ago and badly healed. Pierce is basicallly perfect, he's housebroken, crate trained and good with cats and other dogs. He would love to find a home with another similar-sized medium energy dog who loves to play. If you'd like to meet Pierce, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Pierce at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.
