Story
Lady Bug originally sat in a Florida shelter longer than most and was on the euthanasia list when a family stepped up to save her! Unfortunately, after her new "sister", Peanut, a Havanese became blind and deaf, she began attacking Lady Bug. Lady Bug never reacted but it has put her quality of life in a dismal position. Lady Bug's owner is being deployed and can no longer keep her. We are unsure of her with other dogs as she has only been with little Peanut. Unsure of cats but loves all humans. Please let's get her into her forever home!July 19, 2025, 4:42 pm

His warm eyes and easygoing nature make him the perfect companion for anyone looking for a loyal friend. Despite his muscular build, Shiloh has the softest heart. He’s gentle, loving, and always eager to please. He gets along wonderfully with people and would make a wonderful addition to a caring family who can give him the time, love, and attention he deserves.

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. It is impossible not to smile and laugh with Petey’s adorable personality. Best of all, Petey is a natural swimmer and dock diver, with a true passion for the water. He'd be thrilled to join an active family that lets him enjoy regular swim time.

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. They’re a great way to ease the transition, answer questions, and help everyone start off on the right paw.

Good with dogs, Not good with cats,
Story
They call me the Italian Stallion… or maybe I’m the Couch Cannoli? Either way, nice to meet you—I’m Gino! I’m a 2-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier, weighing in at 56 pounds of pure love and charm. I came in as a stray, and honestly, I can’t believe no one came to claim me—I mean, have you seen this face? I’m not just handsome, I’m also smart. I already know some commands, and I’m always eager to please. Oh, and despite my “medium” size, I’m a certified lap dog. If you’ve got a couch, I’ll be on it. If you’ve got a lap, I’ll be in it. They don’t call me the Couch Cannoli for nothin’. I might even do well with other dogs—just bring your pups by for a meet and greet. We’ll see if they can handle all this Italian charm. I’m on the hunt for my forever family—a home filled with love, cuddles, and maybe some adventures (but mostly cuddles). Could that be you? I’m ready to trade my stray days for a forever home filled with love and snuggles. Swing by and meet me! The shelter is open Tuesday–Friday from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM, and Saturday & Sunday from 1 PM to 4 PM. No appointments needed. Let’s make this love story happen. – Gino 🐾

Patsy

Boxer American Bulldog

Female, Adult
Strongsville, OH
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Miss Patsy’s bio from her stay at the shelter: Miss Patsy has been a hit for various activities off-site, from hikes to exploring agility centers to hanging out at a volunteer's house. Patsy was graded as an A+ cuddle buddy, and you'll be tempted to spend all day petting her luscious rolls. She absolutely belongs stretched out on a plush spot on the couch!   Patsy is also a silly, spunky, and playful gal who is full of life and entertaining charm. She enjoys her walks and play time. Patsy has also been playfully social with other dogs and she has a fun time wiggling around the yards with a favorite toy (and showing off her buns!) She's a great sport for trying out all sorts of new activities and adventures, and her earnestly enthusiastic, clumsy approach to life is sure to bring a smile to your face. When she's excited, she can get a little jumpy and exuberant and with this and her size, she would do best in a home with older kids and adults. It doesn't take her too much activity before she's ready to settle back down and snuggle. Patsy is also a smarty who knows sit and down, and she listens well. She also seems housebroken (no accidents) and rides well in the car. She definitely already has some manners down. Patsy has a lot of personality and she's ready to share it with a family. This goofy, attentive lady is estimated to be around 3 years old and weighs 76 lbs.November 19, 2025, 8:39 pm
