Story
We really outdid ourselves with originality in naming Cattle Dog, or “Cattle D” for not much shorter. Cattle Dog has all the energy and big personality you would expect from a Cattle Dog—he will patrol your yard to protect it from both squirrels and ghosts, but when not under attack from these nefarious villains, he loves to play with his friends and loves giving kisses and hugs and getting attention from his people. He’s a fantastic dog and just the best boy. A physically fenced yard is required. Cattle Dog is available for adoption in Ohio to residents of Ohio.

Story
Meet Rosé! Rosé is a delightful female puppy from the Wine Litter, born on 11/9/25 and ready to find her forever home! Her mom is a heeler and her dad's breed is unknown, but we suspect he had some shar pei in him. Rosé proudly shows off some adorable wrinkles that give her extra character and charm.  Rosé is very happy with a tail that seems to never stop wagging! She wears her joy on her sleeve and sometimes when she is really excited she lets out little cries. It's very endearing!  Rosé has a bit of a tomboy vibe, always ready to jump into playtime, wrestling with her siblings, or keep up with whatever is happening around her.  While Rosé loves to play and have fun, she also enjoys being with her people and soaking up attention. She is affectionate and loves to snuggle.  We expect Rosé to be large sized and she is not suitable for an apartment or invisible fence.  Adoption fee is $400. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, flea and heartworm current. Apply at rescuedohio.org to become an approved adopter and a meet and greet can be set up once approved.  If you're looking for a joyful, wrinkly pup with a big personality and happy heart, Rosé might be your perfect match! ##2579848##

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Murphy came in with his brother Mack. Both are sweet, loving, mid- to high-energy boys. Murphy started out more independent than his brother and still probably is a bit, but he also seeks out attention from time to time and can be very affectionate. Murphy looks more like pure Aussie than his brother, but he may still be mixed. We'd love Murphy and Mack to be adopted together. They are bonded and thrive in each other's company and the company of other dogs. A physically fenced yard is required. Murphy is available for adoption in Ohio to residents of Ohio. If you are interested in adopting Murphy, please complete the online application here (copy and paste into your browser): https://hhdane.formstack.com/forms/lostpetrecoveryadoptionform

Story
Mack came in with his brother Murphy. Both are sweet, loving, mid- to high-energy boys. Mack has been just about the sweetest boy ever from moment one—extremely affectionate and just loves giving you big Mack hugs. He loves when you let him be a Velcro dog, but don’t get the wrong idea—when you need your own space, he is very good about not being pushy about it. Mack’s brother Murphy looks more like pure Aussie, but we’re pretty sure that’s Mack’s mix as well. We'd love Mack and Murphy to be adopted together. They are bonded and thrive in each other's company and the company of other dogs. A physically fenced yard is required. Mack is available for adoption in Ohio to residents of Ohio.
