Story
This beautiful 2 year old brindle beauty is Violet! Violet is a 2 year old pittie and is full grown at 60 lbs. Violet has such a beautiful soul! She's a very shy girl, but once you spend some time with her and get that first tail wag, your heart will just melt. Violet recently went to the vet and did great at her appointment! It was her first time going to the vet ever, because in her past life she was used for breeding and never got medical done. Violet was quiet and stoic getting all of her shots and even her heartworm test done which was negative. Good job, Violet! Violet loves to go for walks with volunteers. She now walks with our other TRI adoptable pittie, Shorty. If you'd like more information on Violet, email us at therescueinn@gmail.com or complete an adoption application: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html

Skye is not only beautiful, but he is a great dog. He completed a training program and was in a foster home for a short time. Skye is a very smart dog and is looking for an active family to adopt, and a fenced in yard would be necessary. Skye would not be a good fit for a first time dog owner. Don't miss out on this great dog. By the way, Skye loves taking baths, with or without you in the tub!!!!

Story
Meet Marge, a delightful senior girl ready to share her golden years with a loving family. Marge is the epitome of sweetness and gentleness, spreading love to everyone she encounters. Her friendly nature extends to other calm dogs and cats, making her an ideal companion for households with multiple pets. However, Marge is not a fan of dogs that too much in her space. Marge excels in crate manners and is fairly adept at housetraining, although occasional accidents may happen. Tailored for a laid-back family in search of a couch potato companion, Marge's leash manners are impeccable, ensuring enjoyable strolls with minimal pulling. Bring warmth and tranquility to your home by welcoming Marge into your hearts. Marge's foster mom had this to say about her: Sweet Marge, your best friend and cuddle buddy. Content to lay on the couch or floor and watch the world go by, but does have a little pep in her step when she sees a ball or watches squirrels outside the window. Walks well on a leash for short distances, is good with other dogs, and the Foster's cat. Good in a kennel, but would prefer to cuddle in a warm blanket right next to you. Does stairs well. Housebroken, laid back, foster Mom calls her "my little Sleeping Beauty" Stop in today to meet this wonderful girl!

Story
Meet Pete, a charming 4-year-old American Staffordshire mix eagerly seeking his forever home! With just a few weeks left in his 12-week stay-and-train program, Pete is counting down the days until he can embark on his next adventure with his new family. To arrange a meet-and-greet with Pete, please contact Rachael at 440-773-0270. Pete has already mastered basic obedience commands like heel, sit, and down, and he's currently honing his stay duration skills. He also keeps his area very clean which indicates he is housetrained and is great in his crate! Plus, he's a pro at giving his paw for treats - such a clever boy! Pete's favorite pastime? Playing with balls! However, his enthusiasm can lead to many balls being shredded, so he'll need tough, indestructible, larger balls to keep him entertained. Although Pete may feel a bit anxious around other dogs, he's learning to cope by carrying a toy during walks. His initial shyness around new people quickly fades, revealing his affectionate and loving nature. Pete's athleticism is impressive - he can jump quite high when he's excited - but he responds well to gentle reminders to calm down. Pete would thrive in a home with owners willing to continue his training journey. If you're ready to welcome this sweet and playful pup into your life, don't hesitate to reach out to Rachael to schedule a meet-and-greet. Pete can't wait to meet his perfect match!

Story
NOTES: (2-19-24) This dog has been in our rescue for 102 days. Applications received: 0 **Basic Information** 1 - 2 Years Old Male Heartworm, Flea, and Tick Treated UTD Golden/Chestnut and White **DNA Scans** American Stafford Terrier **Background** We don't have much information on Lenny. He was found as a stray by the Medina County Dog Warden and was reported to be a very loving guy. Lenny was also dog friendly at intake. He was pending euthanization due to kennel frustration and Coming Back Home Rescue has decided to pull Lenny and bring him "back home". He has few scars and was anemic at the time of pull. (11/17) Lenny has been a wonderful house guest with very few accidents in the home and can be left out of the cage without worry. He currently lives with two other dogs and plays with a male Great Pyrenees. But, play time must be monitored as tension can build between dogs as he's learning to play. We learned he likes calmer, submissive dogs. Lenny is an amazing snuggle bug! He loves giving hugs and kisses. Would be content just snuggling up with someone. Well behaved and just seeking a comfortable home to land on. Lenny has a good balance of calm and excitable. **Home / Handler Recommendations** Beginner Friendly • Homes with moderate human interactions. • Handler with patience and understanding.

Story
Sammy is a 5 year old boxer mix. She is happy, energetic, and eager to please like most boxers.  Sammy has had extensive training with a couple trainers and does well with commands. She knows to stay in her yard and one of her favorite things to do is go to Grandma's to run in the fields and woods. She loves people and will soak up all the attention you can give her. She plays well with other dogs in structured play but is unable to manage her resource guarding well enough to live with other dogs. Sammy has been with the same family since she was 12 weeks old so there is a lot of information to share about her. Sammy is looking for a new home due to the circumstances of her current family and how those do not provide Sammy with the home she deserves. As mentioned, Sammy does resource guard (food, toys, bed) with other dogs so would need to be the only dog in the home. While she loves kids she isn't very aware of how she can knock over a toddler or small children so please 5 years old and up. ##1815077##
