Story
Rocky is one of a litter of 6 pups surrendered by their owners. His mom is a rat terrier mix of some sort and dad is unknown. Some of the pups have a rat terrier look, some have curly tails and tiny ears with shorter noses but we do not know what they are mixed with. Remember Heinz 57? That is our little boy Rocky! He looks like a mix of 57 little breeds all rolled into one! Cute as they come! Mom lives in a barn outside on a farm and she is going to be spayed. All of the pups are very playful and ready for any adventure you have in mind. They were a bit shy at first but now loves attention and love to be in your lap. They are all pretty small, about 8 lbs. so lap sitting is a breeze! Cute small breed mixed pups that can fit in just about any home. Their vet care has been updated including their spay/neuter and vaccines. adoption fee: 250 please contact us directly at: ohiosdrescue@gmail.com

Story
Looking for a young pup who’s figuring out the good life? Beau Jangles is a rat terrier born June 2025, and currently weighs about 17 lbs. Beau entered foster care due to a mismatch in his previous home, which included a cat and a young child. Beau is an active, observant, and food-motivated boy who enjoys walks, enrichment toys, and spending time with his people. He’s learning house manners and is making steady progress with house-training, including staying accident-free overnight. Beau can be a little shy at first, but warms up with calm handling and routine. Beau has interacted with dogs of a similar size without issue. Like many young terriers, he has a high activity level, and he’s still learning to keep his mouth to toys, so he does best in a home without young children. Beau’s ideal home would also be cat-free and ready to provide structure, patience, and ongoing training as he continues to build confidence and settle into family life.

Story
Pluto is a happy, 1-year-old neutered Rat Terrier weighing about 35 lbs. He’s a friendly, social young dog with a sweet heart and endless love to give. He adores other dogs, loves to play, and is wonderful with kids. While his experience with cats is unknown, Pluto has never shown aggression and tends to approach new situations with playful curiosity. Pluto is an active boy who enjoys walks, playtime, and exploring the world around him. He thrives with a predictable routine and regular companionship, and he’s kennel trained and comfortable in his crate when needed. He’s generally quiet, with only occasional barking, and he’s incredibly affectionate — the kind of dog who loves being close to his people. Pluto would shine in a home that can offer consistency, patience, and engagement. He’s eager to bond and will reward you with loyalty and joy. He would be a perfect match for an active household looking for a playful, loving companion.

Story
Say hello to Mac, this 20 pound pigglet. He is a certified weighted blanket, his prefrence is to cover your lap or chest. A jaunt through the neighborhood is well enough, but if the weather is below beautiful, Mac will need his sweater; And likely to be carried back. Mac is also an exceptional voice actor, having played roles such as: Spider-Ham, Wilbur, and Piglin. Kids: Mac can take a bit of time to warm up to new folks so we recommend kids 10+ who can be patient and quiet with him. Dogs: Mac hasn’t met any other dogs quite yet. We recommend patience and supervision during introductions for the best chance of success. Cats: Mac came from a home with cats and didn’t seem to mind them. We still recommend supervision and caution during introductions for the best chance of success. Mac is neutered, microchipped, & fully up-to-date on vaccines & preventions! ##2660703##
