Story
Meet Bright! The first time you see him you will be captivated by his smile! He is the happiest dog you will ever meet & OMG he is so smart! If you’re holding a treat he will sit, come & even stand up & beg!! Bright is the size of a Kelpie with German shepherd coloring & fur! We can’t afford to DNA test so we’re going to guess that he’s a super mutt! He is around 1.5 year old & 46 lbs! He has a very shepherd personality who’s been through professional behavior training so he’s an incredibly talented guy but still has a goofball side. Bright may be well trained but personality os personality and he’s not compatible with young children or small animals. We do require participation in learning his training skills to make sure he’s the right fit forever. Bright is smart, sassy & bouncy! He loves toys & will do anything for a treat. Bright is good in a crate, loves the car & would love to be the center of your world!! Apply to adopt him today!! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   November 14, 2025, 7:43 pm

Story
Hello my husband found Zeus from a young girl who was giving away brand new puppies her dog had 2 years ago. Zeus was assigned to be my husbands emotional support animal. He’s a very good dog. We just realized that we work too much to keep him. fair to him that he spends half of his life in a cage. Now we live in an apartment so we don’t trust him enough to be outside of his cage while we are not at home from 8-12 hours a day most days. So he’s out when we get home until we go to sleep. Zeus loves walks and he loves to play more than anything. He gets very excited when he gets pet. He’s able to hold his bladder for 8-12 hours. He does have diarrhea once every other month but he’s in probiotic powder and that seems to have helped his sensitive stomach. If you choose to adopt Zeus we will send him with food his stomach can handle. Along with his cage, toys and sweater and other things of his. We want Zeus to find a good home. Please contact us if you are interested in adopting.

Story
Tavi came to us after the sudden passing of a family member. She’s a very sweet, loving, and energetic dog that wants nothing more than to be by your side. She’s extremely smart and eager to please. She’s great with cats, kids, and small dogs. She hasn’t had much exposure to larger breed dogs, so she tends to be more hesitant around them. Unfortunately we just don’t have the time to give her the attention and care she deserves. She’d make a great companion in any active family household. She’s good in car rides and loves to adventure and explore.
