Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Jimmie is a very active, high energy dog. He demands 100% of your attention. Very protective of home. Very sweet and cuddly with owner. Sleeps under covers. Would like to find new owners to exercise and keep him busy. Walks great on walks. I rescued him from shelter over a year ago. Too hyper for 75 year old couple. We can't give him what he needs and think it might be the reason for his bad behavior of marking himself in home. No chewing, or destroying, just wetting here and there.

Story
I've had Nova her whole life. Since Jan 2025 she has not adjusted to our son being born. She has not adjusted that she is no longer the center of attention like our other two dogs have and is lashing out on the pack with fighting. She hasnt done well with our son like the others have that with his age in mind he is still learning to pet and be around a dog. She is a high anxiety dog and takes Trazodone daily to take a little of the edge off. She is very loving smart and loves to play fetch to the point she doesnt want to stop lol. She is currently on Gabapentin for her partial acl tears in back legs that happened a couple years back. With her pain meds the doctor said she's at a 4 of 10 pain daily and watching her play you'd never know for she out runs both weimaraners we have that are younger. I think she would thrive in a single dog household no compettion for attention and if around kids, kids that are older teenage state. Any questions dont hesitate to ask.

Story
Meet Toby, an 8-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who is living proof that the best things in life truly do come in small, spirited packages! This distinguished senior is searching for a mildly active forever home where he can enjoy his golden years with a balanced mix of adventure and relaxation. While he has happily mellowed out since his high-octane puppy days, Toby is still very much a terrier at heart, meaning he’s always ready for a bit of mental and physical enrichment.Toby is an absolute dream on a leash, making him an excellent walking companion who is thoroughly respectful of everyone he meets on his strolls. On a recent volunteer outing, he proved to be a total gentleman by enjoying a shaded walk through a local reservation, taking a quiet car ride, and even snoozing peacefully on the couch while a resident dog barked at him—all with zero accidents! He gets along well with small dogs. Because he knows what he likes, Toby would do best in a home with children aged 10 and older who can respect his established routine. True to his breed, he loves playing with balls and isn`t shy about using his voice when he wants to politely remind you that he should be the absolute center of your attention.If you are looking for a loyal, well-mannered companion to walk with every single day, please email us at foster@cuyahogacounty.gov to ask to meet him! Please note that Toby is not available for same day meet and greets.
