Story
💙 Hi friends, I’m Tippy—but you can just call me Tip! 🐾 I’m about 5 years old, sweet as sugar, and yes… I’m a tripod! 🐘 Let’s just get that out of the way. I may be missing a leg, but I don’t need a “pitty” party—I just need a forever home. 🏡 I can run, zoom, and play with the best of them. In fact, I’m lightning fast 💨 (I just don’t have a front brake… so I do a cute little tuck-and-roll stop. You’ll laugh every time, I promise 😉). I’m also a pitbull—not a Rottweiler, I know! 🙃 But Halloween’s coming and I can be whatever I want 🎃👻. Honestly, all I want to be is your best friend. Here’s what I bring to the table: ✨ Sweet, cuddly girl who lives for belly rubs ✨ Great with kids 🥰 ✨ A world-class singer—I howl along to sirens like an angel 😇 ✨ Loyal, goofy, and full of love So why am I looking for a new home if I’m this amazing? Well… my family has loved me since I was just 6 months old. This is very hard on them, but over time I stopped getting along with my dog sister. We tried “family counseling” (training), but we just couldn’t work it out. My family finally realized it isn’t fair to keep us separate all the time, and they made the heartbreaking decision to find me the perfect new home. 💔 My dream family? ❤️ 👉 A home where I can be your one-and-only pup—or maybe live with a calm, submissive doggy brother. 👉 A yard where I can zoom and show off my amazing speed. 👉 Someone who will laugh at my silly antics, sing along with me, and love me for exactly who I am. The only things I’m missing right now are a forever home… and well, that one leg. But trust me, you’ll never miss it when you see how full of love my heart is. 🐾 If you think I could be your girl, please apply at realrottweilerrescue.com and send us a message once you’re approved. 📍 Fostered in Gahanna, OH 💙 Waiting (impatiently!) for my forever family.

Story
I’m Meadow 🌿 I’m about 2 years old, and I’m a soft, sweet pittie girl 💕 I like to act a little shy at first, but honestly I’m mostly just checking to see if you pass the vibe check 😌 Once I know you’re nice, prepare to never be alone again. I follow my humans around the house like it’s my full-time career. I’m really good with other dogs 🐾 and honestly just want everyone around me to feel peaceful and safe. I’m not one of those wild party girls. I’m more of a let’s sit on the couch type 🛋️ I love walks and stay close to my person the whole time. I’m crate trained too, although I may whine a little because being separated from you for even five minutes feels rude and unnecessary 😒 I don’t really know much about toys yet. Nobody may have ever shown me how to play before 😔 But chew bones? I am obsessed. Certified bone collector 🦴 And today I discovered watermelon exists, and I would just like to personally thank whoever invented that 🍉 One thing about me, I KNOW what a couch is. I hop right up like a little professional cuddler because at some point in my life, I had a home 💔 Sadly, I was abandoned at a park and left behind. But somehow I still love people with my whole heart anyway 🥹 Even at the shelter, everyone adored me so much they kept fighting to keep me safe because they knew I was a really special girl. The only thing dangerous about me is how aggressively I will try to cuddle you during your pity party 😂 Just kidding, I’m not aggressive even doing that. So if you’ve been looking for a clingy, couch-loving, watermelon-eating, emotional support pittie to be your tiny shadow for life, you know what to do 😏 Apply for me! HOPE TO CYA SOON! 🥹 https://www.realrottweilerrescue.com/dogs/meadow-vwyq

Hi hi hi! I’m Bonzai, and I’m basically a three-year-old party in a fur coat 🎉🐾 Life didn’t start off perfectly for me, but I don’t hold grudges. I’m way too busy being awesome and snuggly. I LOVE giving and getting cuddles, so your couch better have room… or I’ll just make some 😎. I’m a total people pleaser, super loyal, and gentle, basically your personal fluffy cheerleader 🐶💖 Other dogs? No problem! I make friends everywhere I go, and I’m ready to be the life of the pack. Kids? I’m a total softie who’s happy to hang out and share my love. Adopt me, and I promise endless cuddles, goofy smiles, tail wags, and just the right amount of zoomies to keep life exciting. Basically, I’m the best decision you’ll ever make 🥰. So… what do you say? Want to make me your forever best friend?

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Bruno was adopted in January 2026 and has been living the dream for 9 months in a great home with a dog pal but unfortunately his adopter is moving out of state for a new job that requires travel and can't take Bruno and his other dog Chipley with him. So poor Bruno is searching again for his forever home!! Bruno is approximately 4 yrs 8 months old, Pit/Boxer mix, 63 lbs. Originally this guy was abandoned in Avon Lake, no one claimed him or recognized him? ;-(. We had him neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped, and he tested negative for HW. He is a great dog! Bruno is housebroken and crate trained. We named him Bruno because he has the moves like Bruno Mars HA!! He is very treat-motivated and knows his basic commands. He likes other dogs and loves to act like a HAM!! He has a BIG smile and awesome personality. He completed a "board and train" program and really needs a temporary foster or forever home. If you are interested in Bruno, please submit an online application, so we can learn a little about you to make sure Bruno would be a good match for you and your family. We do not do out of state adoptions, due to our trial adoption process. Adoption fee/donation is $ 100.00 If you have specific questions, please email the adoption coordinator at info@loveastraydog.com If you can't foster or adopt, please consider donating to help us with the board and train expenses and medical expenses. You can mail your donation to: Love-A-Stray, P.O. Box 125, Attn: Bruno, Avon Lake, OH 44012 or visit www.loveastraydog.com for credit card/PayPal information, adoption application, available dogs and upcoming events. Thank you!

Story
Rocky is 8 yrs old. He is honestly the best dog. He just needs loved! He is home for hours by himself. He doesn't chew on anything, no accidents in the house. I have had him for 6 years, I have only heard him bark or growl a handful of times. He has to feel something really off. He is great with any kids he has been around. The only issue is he is not good with other animals. The person I got him from gave me that information. He also has allergies but I dont know exactly to what. Apparently that is common with Pitbulls.
