Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Our Adorable Puppy Crew! Five puppies... five unique personalities... and countless reasons to fall in love! Leah, Raylin, Delia, Tate, and Trey all came to Ohio Fuzzy Pawz from the same hoarding situation. Leah was born about 10 days before the others, making her the "big sister" of the bunch. Shortly after everyone arrived safely in rescue, the other four puppies were born in foster care, where they have been loved, handled, and socialized from day one. We believe they are Shih Tzu mixes, One thing we do know is that they are absolutely adorable! These happy, well-socialized puppies have been raised in loving foster homes and are now ready to find families of their own. Although they began life together, they are now thriving in separate foster homes, where they're building confidence, learning independence, and adjusting to life with new canine companions. They're playful, curious, affectionate, and always ready for their next adventure. Because they're puppies, they're looking for families who are excited to embrace an active, puppy-filled lifestyle. Their adopters should be prepared to continue their house training, leash training, socialization, and basic manners. These little ones will thrive with plenty of playtime, daily exercise, enrichment, and interaction. We would strongly prefer that each puppy join a home with another friendly, playful dog that can continue building their confidence while providing a lifelong companion. Because each puppy has developed their own unique personality, we are listing them as a litter rather than individually. When submitting your application, please let us know if you have a preference for a male or female puppy. As we get to know your family through the application process, we'll carefully match you with the puppy whose personality, confidence level, and energy best fit your home. Adoption Fee: $750 Our puppies are adopted fully vetted for their age, including spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, heartworm prevention, flea and tick prevention, and any additional veterinary care they require prior to adoption. These puppies are being fostered in Central Ohio.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances. If you go to the individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog. Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here: http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. No application is approved prior to the home visit being done. At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer. We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio. September 12, 2026, 8:59 am
