Story

MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm. Questions can be emailed to rescue@mbrohio.com Ozzie is a 7-year-old, 60-pound Pit mix with the sweetest heart and the softest soul. This handsome boy is crate trained, potty trained, and gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and kids — truly the full package! He’s currently working on his leash manners and already knows a few great commands like sit, down, and stay. While toys aren’t really his thing yet, he’s definitely intrigued by the sound of a good squeaker. Ozzie is a love bug through and through, happiest when he’s close to his people — he’d love nothing more than to be your shadow (and he’s happy to share his love with a family of any size!). The first part of Ozzie’s life wasn’t what he deserved, as shown by a long scar down his spine and the way he occasionally ducks when a hand moves too quickly. But despite it all, his gentle, trusting nature shines through. He’s truly a picture of forgiveness and love. In his foster home, Ozzie has been an absolute dream guest — calm, affectionate, and endlessly sweet. He’s working on curbing his excitement when greeting people (sometimes he jumps or paws for attention), and he’s making amazing progress! Ozzie would thrive in a patient home where he can continue learning and feel safe, loved, and cherished every day. A home with someone who appreciates a super soft, living “weighted blanket” would be just perfect. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, the first thing to do is submit an application for approval. All dogs available for adoption are in foster homes. Please do not visit the rescue location as it is a privately run boarding, training & grooming facility. Individual meet and greets are scheduled by appointment only for approved adopters. Age: 7 years Adoption Fee: $250

Story

MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm. Questions can be emailed to rescue@mbrohio.com Meet Parkour! A 11 month-old Pit mix, professional goofball and full-time chaos gremlin with a heart of gold. Parkour is deaf, but don’t worry — his nonsense speaks volumes. Give him an inch and he’ll show you exactly how he earned the name Parkour. Couch? Launchpad. Bed? Trampoline. Human laps? Perfectly acceptable landing zones. This boy is peak puppy energy: • Olympic-level leaf chaser (undefeated, unchallenged, unstoppable) • Zoomies that could power a small city • Nibbles everything he loves… which is everything • Treat-motivated? Yes. Treat-obsessed? Also yes. • Attention span of a goldfish on espresso But don’t let the silliness fool you — Parkour has manners! He knows “sit,” waits politely to exit his kennel like the gentleman he is, and he’s working hard on walking nicely on a leash. His kennel is his happy place (door closed = instant nap mode), and he LOVES fluffy blankets, soft dog beds, and burrowing himself into a cozy cuddle puddle after playtime. Parkour gets along great with dogs and even cats — he just wants friends, fun, and maybe a leaf to chase dramatically in the wind. He’s still perfecting potty training, but he’s doing great with a schedule. If you’re looking for a goofy, loving, high-spirited puppy who will make you laugh every single day, Parkour is your guy — flips not included… but definitely implied. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, the first thing to do is submit an application for approval. All dogs available for adoption are in foster homes. Please do not visit the rescue location as it is a privately run boarding, training, & grooming facility. Individual meet and greets are scheduled by appointment only for approved adopters.

Story

MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm. Questions can be emailed to rescue@mbrohio.com Yogi is a 2-year-old, 68-pound gentle giant with a heart of pure gold. He is a quiet, sensitive boy who’s happiest simply being near his people. He doesn’t ask for much—just a safe place to rest, a calm environment, and someone who understands that love can be quiet and steady. Because of past trauma, Yogi would prefer to be the only dog in his home. He’s not aggressive—he actually gets along with friendly dogs who visit—but sharing his space full-time is stressful for him. What he really needs is a home where he can feel secure and know he won’t have to compete for comfort or attention. Yogi is a sweet soul who doesn’t understand why he’s suddenly without a family after spending the first two years of his life in a home. He’s grieving, but still hopeful. His Christmas wish is simple: a forever family who will give him the love, patience, and stability he’s been missing. Yogi is potty trained, crate trained and does well on a leash. He enjoys the simple things in life — lounging in the sun, exploring the yard, and spending time with his doggy friends. Does this sound like he could be the perfect fit for you!? Apply today!

He’s not just cute—he’s a volunteer favorite who wins hearts everywhere he goes. Ray’s story began in a church parking lot, where he was found waiting for days after being abandoned by the only family he knew.

But once Ray realized he was safe and loved, he blossomed into the affectionate, loyal, snuggly boy he was always meant to be. ✨ Ray’s Best Qualities: • Champion snuggler — the ultimate “Netflix and chill” buddy • Smart and eager to please — focuses beautifully during training, especially for treats • Independent when needed — happily entertains himself with toys • Great on leash — enjoys walks and adventures • House & crate trained — well-mannered and ready for home life • Ladies’ man — Ray gets along wonderfully with female dogs but prefers not to share his home with other males • Feline-free home needed — cats are not his cup of tea Ray is the perfect mix of adventure partner and cuddle companion. Whether you’re heading out for a fun-filled day or settling in for a cozy night, Ray is always ready to be right by your side. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a huge heart and an even bigger capacity for love, Ray is your guy. Apply today to meet the boy who’s been waiting so patiently for his forever family.

Lorain, OH

(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

Before her rescue, Ripley was a devoted mom to a litter of puppies. Now, it’s finally her turn to be pampered and spoiled. She loves people and greets everyone with tail wags and enthusiasm—sometimes a little too much excitement, but with some gentle reminders, she’s quick to learn. Ripley is a spirited, high-energy 3-year-old who’s ready to find a forever home that matches her zest for life! This athletic girl lives for movement—she loves to run, play, and will gleefully destroy any toy that crosses her path. She’s fantastic with other dogs and adores children, making her a great match for an active family with kids or playful pups. Ripley thrives in a home that’s always on the go—whether it’s hikes, runs, or backyard zoomies, she’s all in. A quiet, laid-back lifestyle just isn’t her thing; she’s looking for a household that’s as energetic as she is. Ripley is crate trained, housebroken, and knows basic commands like “sit.” She’s also super smart and very treat-motivated, so training is a breeze with the right snacks and consistency. Important note: Ripley cannot be in a home with cats or small animals. She has a strong prey drive and takes her “squirrel patrol” duties very seriously—your yard will be rodent-free! If your home is filled with energy, love, and adventure, Ripley just might be your perfect match. Ready to make her part of your pack? ##2223382##

Story

Meet Petey, a lovable mix of charm, strength, and playfulness! This handsome boy is all about adventure, whether it's a walk through the neighborhood or a breezy car ride with the wind in his fur. Petey's playful spirit lights up with tug-of-war games, window gazing, fetching his favorite Kong ball, or splashing around during bath time. He's a clever pup, already mastering sit and excited to learn even more! Petey's affectionate side shines as he curls up on your lap or politely asks for a play session during TV time. While he's still working on his manners around food, he's a well-mannered sleeper, resting peacefully in his cozy kitchen spot through the night.

This dog is eligible for up to three in-home training sessions after adoption! These sessions are led by someone familiar with the dog’s training, personality, and needs.
