Meet Chino! This handsome lovebug is a laid-back guy with one major priority in life: soaking up all the affection he can get. He knows his basic commands, is very smart, and thrives when he's treated gently and with kindness. Chino loves to cuddle, play, and be petted-those are truly his favorite activities-though he's also active and athletic when it's time for fun. Toys and treats make his tail wag instantly, and he does well with other dogs, making him a sweet, affectionate companion who's happiest when he's close to his people.*Qualifies for Pets for Patriots program*Qualifies for Senior-to-Senior program"Please email Adoptions@saltlakecounty.gov with questions Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 76.4375 Age: 5yrs 0mths 3wks

Story
Hi, I'm Belvedere, a seven-year-old pit bull. I've got soft eyes, a happy wag, and a big love for people, treats, and showing off my sit like it's my greatest party trick. I enjoy playtime, attention, and being part of the action. I'd do best with someone who knows their dogs and can help me keep my inner party animal on the gentle side, because once you get to know me, you'll see I'm all heart and very little roar.*Qualifies for Pets for Patriots program *Qualifies for Senior-to-Senior program Please email Adoptions@saltlakecounty.gov with questions Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: Brown Weight: 53 Age: 7yrs 6mths 3wks

Hi, I'm Edgar, a three-year-old pit bull with a soft heart and a name that sounds very serious but comes with a lot of goof. Yes, like Edgar Allan Poe, though my greatest works are written in slobber and squeaky toys, and the only thing I say "nevermore" to is an empty treat jar. I might seem a little reserved at first, like a mysterious author brooding over his next masterpiece, but give me a little time and I'll happily reveal my wiggly, playful side. I enjoy toys, good snacks, and quality time with my people, and I'm looking for a home that appreciates a gentle soul with a dash of dramatic flair. Adopt me, and we can write a very happy ending together.*Qualifies for Pets for Patriots programPlease email Adoptions@saltlakecounty.gov with questions Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Tan Weight: 44.0625 Age: 3yrs 0mths 2wks

LION – Male Boxer | 2 Years Old - DOB 11/25/2023 |    50 lbs | Healthy, Vaccinated & Neutered Introducing Lion, the sweetest big-hearted Boxer boy you’ll ever meet! At 2 years old, Lion has that perfect blend of Boxer goofiness and soulful loyalty. He’s playful, affectionate, expressive, and absolutely loves being near his humans. Lion is the type of dog who wiggles when he’s happy, leans in for cuddles, and charms everyone he meets with his warm, gentle nature. Breed Info: Boxers are known for their intelligence, athleticism, and famously silly personalities. They are deeply loyal, people-oriented, and incredibly loving companions. Boxers thrive on interaction, bonding, and being included in family life. Lion reflects the best of his breed — goofy, devoted, and full of heart. Owner Responsibilities: To help Lion thrive, he’ll need: Daily exercise (walks, play, and engagement) Structure, training, and positive reinforcement Plenty of affection and time with his family A safe, stable home where he won’t be left alone too long Give him routine, purpose, and love — and Lion will give you devotion for life. Things to Consider Before Adopting Lion: Are you ready for a medium-energy, highly social dog? Do you have the time and stability for daily exercise and bonding? Is your home and landlord dog-friendly? Are you prepared to commit to a dog for the next 10+ years? Are you ready for a dog who wants to be included as part of the family, always? Dogs are forever — not until convenient. Vet Care: Lion is healthy, vaccinated, and neutered. Please take him to your own vet shortly after adoption to set up ongoing care and ensure his continued well-being. The 3-3-3 Rule & Lifelong Commitment: First 3 days: He decompresses and starts to feel safe. First 3 weeks: Lion learns your routine, expectations, and begins trusting fully. First 3 months: He bonds deeply, understanding he is truly home at last. Adoption is forever — and Lion is ready to give his heart unconditionally. Why Lion Would Be a Great Addition: Lion is a loyal, affectionate, and joy-filled companion who will bring warmth and love into any home. His expressive Boxer charm, playful energy, and gentle nature make him the kind of dog who forms bonds that last a lifetime. He’ll make you laugh, comfort you on hard days, and love you with everything he has. He’s not just a dog — he’s family. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143   If you are interested in adopting this amazing dog, please follow the link https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions and fill out an application  Thank you for choosing Ozzie and Friends Rescue.
