Hello everyone, this is benji, He is a 19 week old aussie mix.

Story
Jake the Great is finally here! This animated boy is 3 years old, a tall 55-lbs, and enjoys nothing more than some playtime, long walks, and cuddles on the sofa. Jake did not get off to a great start in life, and by no fault of his own ended up at a Scioto County shelter before being scooped up by PAWS. He is ready for his big break with his forever family. He has no known health issues and has been quick to learn how to be alone in the house when his foster parents are out and about. House trained, learning how leashes and walks work, but maybe a little impatient with dinner, Jake has matured into a more confident gentleman. He is good with cats and dogs and especially appreciates having somebody that can help him work through some of his boundless energy. His next family should be ready to be patient with the goofball. He needs daily exercise and has trouble walking across smooth hardwood floors with his giraffe-like legs. Jake is available to meet and greet at the many PAWS events!  Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start March 8, 2026, 11:18 pm

Story
Meet Bronco!If you're looking for a handsome adventure buddy with a fluffy coat and a big personality, Bronco might be your guy.Bronco is an almost 3-year-old, 56-pound Australian Shepherdtype mix who combines good looks with an affectionate and playful personality. His previous owner listed him as an Australian Shepherd, and while he may be a mix (we wouldnt be surprised if theres a little Golden Retriever or another herding breed in there), he definitely shares that breeds intelligence, energy, and love of being involved with his people.Bronco enjoys walks, exploring outdoors, and riding in the car where he settles in nicely for the trip. He is house-trained, walks well on a leash, and already knows how to sit especially when treats are involved! Like many smart dogs, hes very treat-motivated, which makes training both fun and rewarding.During his recent photo session, Bronco showed both sides of his personality. He was a little shy at first, but it didnt take long before he warmed up running right over to one of our volunteers for pets and attention as if they were old friends. Once he feels comfortable, his affectionate side really shines.Bronco loves being part of the action and bonds closely with his people. He would do best in a home where he gets plenty of companionship, exercise, and things to keep his clever mind busy. Because he has enthusiasm for life, he would likely thrive in a house with space to play rather than an apartment, and while he enjoys kids, his energy may be best suited for families with older children.Bronco can get along with other dogs, though like many dogs he can be a bit selective about his friends, preferring dogs whose personalities match his play style. Cats are not his thing.With the right family who appreciates an active, intelligent dog, Bronco will be a loyal companion and enthusiastic partner for adventures big and small.Apply at www.caninecollective.org

Meet Wynetta 💕 Wynetta is a spirited, high energy girl who is ready to find a family that can keep up with her enthusiasm for life.

She is already spayed and ready to head home with her forever family. Wynetta is eager to learn and ready for training, structure, and plenty of exercise.

Story
Jada is roughly 12 years old. I adopted her when she was about 2 years old. She is a great, loyal dog but does come with fear aggression. I had her professionally trained in 2018. She is extremely playful and treat motivated. She loves being outdoors and exploring. Since adopting her, I have gotten married and now have 2 young children. Due to her history of fear aggression, she is not trusted around my kids which is the main motivator to rehome her. She would thrive best in a home without children or other pets. My husband and I are searching for a home for her where she will have an exceptional quality of life during her final years.
