Story

My name is Betsy (Ross) and I made a freedom trip to Ohio after pending euthanization in South Carolina. Travel was stressful but we made it! Starting out, I was shut down and scared but the people here were patient. The dogs were eager to play with me but no way could I trust them right away. Day by day, it was like chipping away at a brick wall and they started to see a lot of potential with me. They say I'm like; "a woman with her walls up but deep down is super caring. Just does not show it all the time." Stubborn but sweet. I "act" independent but deep down, I really enjoy being with my people - secretly a shadow. When it's time for a nap, I like to put my head on my foster mom. But, I don't want her to know I like her "too" much so sometimes I'll sleep at the bottom of the bed to keep her guessing. We even sleep out with other dogs which I don't mind as long as they don't bite my feet - very sensative. Sometimes I have to give Spudz a piece of my mind (a correction). He's so annoying but he listens and no one gets hurt. Speaking of stubborn, I can't stand being in a crate. They say it's like dragging a boulder so they gave up. Not even 20 treats can trick me to walk in there. My foster mom said if I can be nice to Spudz AND behave in the house, she'll make an exception to join the "Freeroaming Crew"... which is just Spudz. (I think she spoils him too much. He gained like 5 pounds in a week!) Regardless, I passed my tests with flying colors. So, she let's me stay out when she's not home. I just sleep, minding my own business. No potty accidents because potty goes outside, duh. My tail always wags when she comes back home and I love to greet her at the door. Right now, I don't have many friends. Mom says I play too rough (non-aggressive) and not many of the dogs can keep up. But, I only play rough outdoors never indoors. They say that I seem to know the difference and thankfully, know how to disengage when playing. Guess not every dog was built to box and wrestle. I'm proudfully the toughest in my league! Spudz always taps out. So, because of that, I'll need to find the right dog that can keep up and more on the submissive side. Slow introductions (with dogs) are a must which they'll help with because I'm not so quick to trust others. However, I'm okay with retiring my boxing and just being the only dog. Kids are great, too. Do you need a babysitter? I just want to be loved.. Some other fun facts about me; • I love going for walks and doing pretty good on the leash. • Stainless Steel Bowls make me nervous so I have to eat off a plate. It took mom a while to figure it out. We're on track now to gaining more weight. We're not sure how or why we got to this point. • I'm a pretty low-moderate energy dog and go with the flow. Napping all day? Okay! A day full of adventures? Let's go! • My paperwork says I'm about 5-6 Years Old. They're lying. Obviously. I don't look a day over 6 months. My face is from a powdered donut. • I'm loyal and protective. No one better touch my mom's sandwich! But, I don't beg for it or try to steal it. I just want to make sure she eats, too. Spudz stole her last two dinners and Thor stole her steak last week. People I'm not familiar with who try to tower over her, I watch like a hawk. You better not touch without permission. As long as she's cool, I'm cool. If she's screaming, I'm kicking your butt and if you make her cry, there's a hole in the backyard for you. Spudz dug it for you. So, I'm a tough girl but I'm sweet. Perhaps I'll be a little shy showing you how much I really care about you but over time you'll see... I just don't want to get hurt again... Will you come adopt me? In return, I'll make sure no one hurts you.

Story

Allow us to introduce you to Norris. This charming fella came to us some time ago as a stray. Initially timid, Norris has come a long way since then, now reveling in playful activities. With a toy, a yard, or even a baby pool, Norris is the happiest boy when he is enjoying swimming and playtime. His play style might involve a bit of vocalization, but it's all in the spirit of fun. As far as Norris is concerned…there is never enough toys! After his energetic bursts, Norris finds joy in stretching out and lounging. He adores nestling his nose under your arm for head rubs and sitting snugly between your legs. At around 2 years old, he's a leash-walking pro, making him a great companion for an active lifestyle. He will need an active household. While he's tolerant with other dogs, we believe he'd thrive best as the sole pet in the household. We do think he would thrive with someone who has a bit of experience with owning dogs. He would thrive with someone who knows how to lead him to be the best boy. Due to his exuberant nature, we recommend a home without young children and a securely fenced yard for this lively boy. This sweetheart just needs his very own forevermore. Is that with you? If you are interested in Norris, send us a message to set up a potential meet and greet!

Story

READ FULL ADOPTION POST Hey world, we’d like you to get reacquainted with our Twig. He was briefly adopted out, and it didn’t work out. But that’s okay. This adorable guy had a rocky start, but he's been blossoming in the care of an amazing foster and her pup. Twig's past is a mystery, while we know he was abandoned and emaciated…what he went through prior had to be bad. He is scared of being hurt by those he doesn’t know, and he cowers with fear when a voice is raised. He's got a heart as big as his loyalty, and he's fiercely protective of his chosen humans, kind of like a pint-sized chihuahua with a heart of gold. Now, Twig's looking for a special human with a PhD in "Rescue Dog Rehab," preferably a widow or a lone ranger – no kiddos or party animals please. We're talking about a tranquil, zen-like household here, folks. But here's the magic of Twig: when he loves, he loves with all his heart. You'll never find a more loyal and devoted dog. We say that a lot, but we truly mean it with Twig. His love is nothing short of inspiring. We’ve had him working with a trainer, and he's come a long way. Once he trusts you, you'll see just how sweet and loving he can be. His adoption process will include a few meet and greets with him and the trainer for a smooth transition and to provide you with the tools to understand and support him. Here's the cool part - he's great with other dogs, so if you've got a four-legged friend, they'll be instant BFFs. He is crate trained and housebroken. He can get bored and can occasionally chew, so toys are a must! Twig's hobbies include cuddling, soaking up the sun, earning treats like a pro, and going on car rides. He's a laid-back dude, always happy to be by your side. So, if you're a compassionate, patient, and experienced dog owner, ready to open your heart to Twig's quirks and all, reach out to us and help share his story!

Story

Our hearts ache as we post this about our beloved Marnie. She's was on a journey for over a year, searching for that one special place to call her forever home. Marnie is once again embarking on the quest for her forever home, as her last stop turned out to be less than ideal, and our foster homes are full with other animals in need. What Marnie truly longs for is the companionship of another playful medium to large canine buddy. She truly comes alive when she's surrounded by her fellow four-legged pals who match her enthusiasm and energy. Marnie's zest for life is infectious, and having a playmate to share adventures with is nothing short of a dream for her. Of course, Marnie isn't without her quirks. She could use a little assistance with her leash manners, but with the right touch of patience, understanding, and training, this hurdle can be overcome. A fenced-in yard would be an incredible hope for her new home, granting her the freedom to frolic and run whenever she wants! Marnie is a bundle of warmth, cuddles, and affection. Her heart brims with love waiting to be shared. Marnie deserves a chance to find a family that will cherish and adore her. PLEASE SHARE TO HELP Marnie find her forever home. If you're captivated by Marnie's spirit and wish to offer her the love and care she deserves, please send us a message.

Hey there, fabulous humans! It's your gal, Bernadette, but you can call me Bern or even Freckles – I've got more nicknames than treats in a jar, and I love 'em all, especially when they come with compliments about my stunning looks. So, here's the scoop: I strutted into this shelter a few moons ago after being found at a local park. The guess is I was dumped there, but hey, no hard feelings – I'm ready for a fresh start! Now, let me tell you, when I first landed here, I was a bundle of nerves. Can you blame me? New place, new faces, but thanks to some awesome volunteers, I improve everyday. They discovered my love for a sprawling yard, I definitely need a fenced in yard, because this gal needs space to run, zoom around, and soak up the glorious sunshine. Snow, you say? Bring it on! I've got a feeling I'll be a snowflake-catching extraordinaire. Sure, I'm on the high-energy side, and yeah, I might flex those muscles a bit, but give me a few minutes, and I remember my leash manners. I'm thinking an active, young-at-heart household (no super young children) is my jam – you know, where the adventures never stop. Now, I do have a tiny confession: I'm a bit picky with my canine companions, so I'm dreaming of a forever home where I'm the solo pet, soaking up all the love. I'm 2-3 years young, and I've got a lot to learn, but I'm a quick study. I need someone who speaks dog and can help me polish my manners. Once the zoomies are out of my system, I transform into a cuddle connoisseur. Picture this: me snuggled up next to you, enjoying the cozy vibes, maybe with a peanut butter licky mat in paw – perfection! I'm ready to ditch the shelter life and move into my own fabulous forever home. Are you the awesome human who'll make my dreams come true? Let's make it happen! If you are interested in Bernadette, send us a message!
