Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Loving and obedientPretty Izzy was a resident of the dog pound, her now foster mom saw the potential in this loving and obedient girl and she took Izzy into her home in order to give her a better chance at finding a "furever" home. Izzy is spayed and up to date on all her vaccinations. She is heart worm negative and on monthly heartworm preventative. Izzy loves toys and playing fetch. She knows a number of commands such as sit,shake, lay down and stay. She is house broken and so considerate that when she had to vomit after her spay surgery, she ran to the door to go outside! She has not been crated and has been reliable left alone in the house. Izzy likes to play hard, so children are not in the picture for her. At the pound she was noted to do well in a dog play group. She will require a fenced yard in order to expend some energy.  Izzy is not a Rose's Rescue dog. She is located in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio and her adoption fee is $150. We are posting her in hopes of helping her caregiver find  Izzy a permanent home. Home owners only apply. Please contact Jennifer Knights at 330-703-0331 or jaknghts44@gmail.com if you are interested in this remarkable girl.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 27, 2024, 9:03 am

Story
*** BONDED PAIR; EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS ** 'Lil' (aka 'Lillian') and 'Phil' (aka 'Phillip') are 2 of the most wonderful, affectionate, sweet and joyful pooches we have ever known. Lil is a 5 yr. old, 65-70 lb. fawn brindle Staffordshire terrier female and Phil is a 4 yr old, 80-85 lb. Staffordshire terrier/curly coated/Chesapeake Bay retriever mix male. They are the best of friends and make a tremendous duo. They are affectionate, kind, gentle, loving cuddle bugs with a silly, playful side. Incredibly eager to please, obedient, loyal and attentive. They are like sunshine on a rainy day; you simply cannot be in a sad mood around them. Words cannot justify how truly wonderful they are; people adore them when they meet their sweet, kind natures. All they want to do is to love and be loved. One of the greatest duos we've ever known, each being super special in their own right but combined they are magic. They compliment each other so well, being each other's anchor and best friend, they deserve to continue to live together and spread their combined joy. Lil is spayed; Phil is is neutered. Both dogs are fully vaccinated, de-wormed, have been on monthly heart-worm preventative, crate-trained and house-trained. This rescue does not do it's own 'shots' ... all medical care is done by a licensed, certified Veterinarian or done under their direct supervision (ex., monthly heartworm treatments &/or deworming). All of our rescued dogs have been on a nutritional regime which includes high quality food and supplements (ex., probiotics; vitamins, etc). This is done to bolster their immune systems and overall health; the result benefits their adoptive family with a pooch who has a lustrous coat, bright shiny eyes, and happy and healthy disposition.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.left eye has been removedDNA TESTED: ONE FREE TRAINING SESSION WITH ADOPTION: My name is Gretel! I am a really cool ,happy girl. I weigh in at 36 pounds and I am 3 years. I have a beautiful light brindle coat.  I am a short, smaller pitty girl. I wandered in the park for a week, before some kind people were able to trap me. I guess my owner left me there on purpose, my harness was so tight that it had to be cut off. What a horrible experience that was. I was so scared and when your person dumps you, my confidence went out the door. My foster mom took me to the vet right away to get my abrasions treated and to find out what was wrong with my left eye. It turns out that I have a condition called dry eye. I had my eye removed  October 19th and now I am ready for a new home. I hope you don't mind that I wink at you. I think an eye patch would make me look cool. I come across wrong to other dogs, because I have the little dog syndrome. I need to be the only dog in the home and don't need to see lots of other dogs on my walks. I LOVE my walks.  Definitely no cats. I am crate trained, house trained and totally vetted. I am very obedient  and loving. I will bark a little if someone is at your door and then I settle down and want to be friends. I am living with a young boy in my foster home. He is my buddy, so I am child safe. My people are the apple of my eye, even if there is only one eye(LOL) I will be fine in my crate while you are gone and a couple of walks a day and some time to play with squeaky toys will make me happy. I can be trusted not to bother anything in your home.Isn't there someone out there who doesn't care if I don't like  interacting with other dogs.Not all dogs do ,you know. I have had a Wisdom Panel DNA test and it turns out that I am a very large Chihuahua, at least 8% of me is. Check out my DNA results, there is much more in the report than is posted on my page and that will be available to my adopter.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Hello, my name is Koco and I am in need of a new home. My foster mom says I am a 65 lb puppy, that does not have a mean bone in my body.I am a loving girl. Playing is my thing. I love to play with other dogs, but it would have to be a medium to large sized dog that likes to play. I would be a great companion to your dog.  I am a bit too rough for the little guys. I might be a little too rough for cats also. I am looking for an active family, with a fenced yard. If physical fence, it needs to be 5 feet or over. I love treats and will sit gently taking the treat from your hand. I would not do well around small children as I could knock them over, but older children would be great. I am a lovey dovey.  I am around 3 years old and weigh in at around 65 lbs and reported to be a really fun, loving, happy girl. If I am the girl for you please fill out an online application so we can meet and fall in love!!
