Story
I would like to introduce you to Tator Tot, also known as Tator, Tate, silly boy, and Derpy. He is six months old. His father is a purebred Australian Shepherd, and his mother is a purebred Australian Kelpie. He is full of puppy energy and playful antics. We are currently working on potty training, but he still has occasional accidents. He is crate trained for sleeping at night. Unfortunately, I also have a three-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd who experiences high anxiety and is very protective of me. This has led to a challenging relationship between the two dogs. I have made efforts to improve their dynamic, but as he gets older, her behavior towards him becomes more aggressive. This situation is not fair to him. He possesses a great deal of energy and thoroughly enjoys playing, whereas she does not. While I deeply adore this little boy, he truly needs a home where he is not subjected to daily bullying from another dog.

Story
Allow us to introduce you to SPOT, the most adorable small 3 year old Aussie/Pittie mix who has been surrendered to our pound due to his owner's inability to care for him. SPOT is a petite guy, but while he may be small in stature, his heart is huge. SPOT loves everyone. He is good with cats, kids, and other dogs. Because he loves to play as much as he does (the world is his playground), if you have another dog that dog should love to enjoy romping and playing because SPOT is an in your face kind of playmate. His enthusiasm for life sometimes has him literally jumping for joy and that includes around kids. Of course, SPOT can be trained not to jump, but in the meantime, he might jump on little kids. SPOT has beautiful merle markings and one eye is marbled with blue which is caused by the same gene that creates the merle pattern that Aussies are famous for. If you are an active family, consider adding SPOT to your life because you won't be sorry you did. Harrison County Dog Pound. 82900 Toot Rd. Cadiz, OH 43950. Open: Monday-Friday from 10am-4pm; Saturday 9am-2pm; closed Sundays and holidays. Adoption applications are available at the pound or online at harrisoncountydogpoundvolunteers.org. Apple users must submit application using Google, not Safari. Out of state adoptions are welcomed. $40 adoption fee. 740-942-4080
