Story
Meet Finnegan! This friendly shepherd mix is ready to be your playful, active pal. He has a big charming smile, and little forehead wrinkles to let you know when he`s concerned - such as when he`s wondering when he will be adopted!Finnegan is a smart, eager dog who likes to run, explore and keep busy. He loves to romp and play in our yards with his favorite toys, and he is a budding fetch pro. He likes to check in with his people to show off his favorite toys while bursting with wiggles. He also likes to take meandering walks where he can sniff to his heart`s content, or he`ll be down to join you for a run. He can be strong on leash so will certainly help you get your steps in. He is easy to get harnessed and attentive to his person. With those large ears of his, you can bet he`s a good listener! Once Finnegan has a chance to get some energy out, he shows his sweet side as well as his smarts. Finnegan likes to hang out with people, especially if he can get some head scritches or pets. He also already knows how to sit, and is working on down and stay, and he seems like he could be housebroken. With other dogs for his play group assessment, he was playfully social. Finnegan is a bright pup who we think will thrive in a home where he can keep his mind and body active. The kennel is a pretty boring and frustrating place for a dog like him! He`s ready to be your strapping sidekick. Finnegan is estimated to be around 2 years old and weighs 55 lbs. Visit www.tinyurl.com/meetacitydog to set up a meet!

Story
Poor Jane came to us in need of an emergency surgery. She had a pyometra, which for those who don’t know, is an infection of the uterus that can happen in females who are not spayed. It is fatal if an emergency spay is not performed to remove the infection. It took her some time, but sweet Jane has finally made her recovery and is ready for her next adventure. She has discovered a passion for chasing balls around in the play yard……. and biting trees for some reason. She was attacked by 2 other dogs in the past, so she has a lot of reservations around other dogs and is said to be reactive with them. Since she has been here, we have not had any issues, but a home without other dogs may be ideal for her. However, it may not be out of the question if there are multiple meet and greets and slow introductions. We are not sure how she does with cats or children. She loves to give kisses though! Jane has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and has tested neg. for heartworm which is included in the adoption fee. If you would like to adopt this dog, you must come into the shelter for a meet and greet. We are open 12-4. (Closed Mondays & Wednesdays)

These pups are in Akron, Ohio too!

Story
Meet Star Star is a beautiful 3–4-year-old sweetheart weighing about 45 pounds, and just like her name, she shines in her own special way. She may take a little time to warm up to new people, but once she knows you, she becomes the sweetest, most loyal cuddle buddy you could ever ask for. Star bonds deeply with her people and loves nothing more than being close to those she trusts. In her foster home, Star has proven to be a wonderful house guest. She is fully potty trained and has not needed to be crated. She settles in nicely and enjoys being part of the family routine. Star absolutely loves car rides and will happily hop in for an adventure. Walks are one of her favorite activities, and she also enjoys playing with her foster dog siblings. She thrives around other dogs and would likely love a canine companion in her forever home. Star previously lived in a home with cats before coming into foster care, so she may be able to coexist with feline friends as well. Because Star can be a little shy at first, she’ll need a patient adopter who will give her the time and space she needs to feel safe. But once she blossoms, you’ll see just how incredibly loving and devoted she truly is. Her gentle nature, loyal heart, and love of cuddles make her an amazing companion. If you’re looking for a faithful best friend who will reward your patience with endless love, Star might just be the perfect match for you. Star is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, and current on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. Her adoption fee is $200. Ready to Meet Star? Start by completing an adoption application at www.rescue330.org.

Story
Meet  Matcha aka matcha latte  Age: estimated around 1-2 years old.   Weight: 40 lbs. Breed: boxer mix.  This sweet girl was found abandoned in a car with another dog and was dangerously underweight. Now Matcha is a healthy, medium sized dog and she’s learning what a good life looks like.  Even with her rough start to life she’s still a very happy, loving, carefree pup. Matcha loves playing with other dogs and snuggling on the couch (especially under the blanket). She’s obsessed with all toys but anything with a squeaker is her favorite. Toys don’t last long with her so be prepared to clean up fluff but she will leave your shoes/pillows alone.  We’re learning that Matcha does have some fear based reactivity when meeting new people but once you earn her trust she’s a total love bug so say goodbye to personal space. She tends to be more fearful of men which leads us to believe she may have previously been abused but if you give her some time, treats or a new toy she’ll eventually be your best friend.  Matcha doesn’t love the vet although I can’t say I blame her. Previous appointments have required muzzling, calming meds and mild sedation but it’s possible she could overcome her fears with time. Matcha is crate trained and potty trained but she does think baby gates are her own personal hurdles to jump.   Matcha would probably do best in a home with older children due to some of her puppy tendencies and she would like another dog but one isn’t required. If you feel capable of giving Matcha the time, patience and support needed along with a fraction of the love she’ll give you, please fill out an application to meet this sweet girl so she can finally have a loving family of her own. Matcha is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, and current on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. Matcha's adoption fee is $200. Ready to Make Matcha part of your family?
