Story
Gentle Giant Looking for His Forever Home 🖤 Meet Doom, our big, sweet Akita boy with the softest heart and the goofiest personality. Doom is house-trained, well-mannered, and truly just a giant baby in a fluffy body. He loves being close to his people, soaking up attention, and lounging around like he owns the couch. He is incredibly affectionate, loyal, and kind. the type of dog who just wants to be near you and feel loved. He has a calm, gentle nature but still enjoys walks, playtime, and having space to stretch his legs. Akitas are such special, devoted dogs, and Doom really lives up to that reputation. This decision has been extremely hard for us. We are expecting our first baby and, after a lot of thought, we know we wont be able to give Doom the time, energy, and one-on-one attention he truly deserves. Our biggest wish is to find him a home where he can continue to be spoiled, loved, and treated like family.

Story
Aurora is a sweet-natured, gentle and social lady. She offers soft body language and readily greets people with a smile and gentle tail wags. On leash, true to the breed, she can pull strongly and does better in front-attaching harness. Aurora does check in with her person and enjoys eating tasty treats. When meeting new dogs, she displayed social and neutral body language. She previously lived with other dogs and will likely do fine with other mellow dogs after proper introductions. Aurora appears to be a Siberian Husky, however without a DNA test we cannot confirm that she`s a purebred. She is approximately 6 years young and currently weighs 62 pounds.

Story
CinnamonFemaleAge: 1 yearEstimated Full Grown Weight: 40-50 lbsBreed: Husky/Pocket Bully Hi! I’m Cinnamon — sweet, smart, and always ready for fun or snuggles (especially snuggles!). I’m a cuddly puppy with an eager little heart, and I love being around people, kids, and other dogs. Whether it’s playtime or quiet time, I’m happiest when I get to share it with someone I love. I’m house trained, crate trained, and I walk very nicely on a leash. I haven’t spent much time around cats yet, so I’m not sure what I think of them, but with a careful introduction, who knows? I might do just fine. I adore bones, toys of every kind, and anything that lets me play, learn, or chew happily. I’m a very smart girl with a big eagerness to learn new things — training sessions are actually one of my favorite activities because I get to use my brain and make you proud. But my number one favorite thing in the whole world? Cuddling. If there’s a soft blanket, a comfy couch, or a warm lap, you can bet I’ll be right there curling up beside you. I’m a loving, intelligent puppy with so much joy to give. If you’re looking for a sweet companion who’s equal parts playful, bright, and affectionate, I’d love to be your new best friend. If you are interested in meeting Cinnamon apply to adopt her at www.causeforcanines.org. To help me find the perfect match, I’m eligible for Cause for Canines’ Trial Adoption Program! This gives approved adopters a chance to get to know me in their home before making things official. You must be an approved adopter to participate. Adoption fee: $395. Must be an Ohio resident & 23 or older. Children must be 5 or older. ##2581420##

Story
Jam is a 14-year-old Siberian Husky who has been part of our family since he was a puppy. We got him from a breeder, and over the years he has grown into a calm, gentle companion with a very relaxed personality. Unlike the typical high-energy husky, Jam is extremely mellow. He loves to lounge around the house and can often be found curled up sleeping, like a cat. While he enjoys going outside, he prefers slow wandering and sniffing around at his own pace rather than high-energy play. He is especially wonderful with kids. His calm temperament and gentle nature make him a great family dog. We are hoping to find Jam a loving new home because our family will be moving to Houston this summer. With his age, the high temperatures there and the added cost of transporting him have become concerns for us. We believe it would be in his best interest to remain here in a cooler climate where he can stay comfortable in his senior years.
