Story
Meet Scooter. Rescued from a shelter in southern OH after his people surrendered him. Thus is a great dog and will make an awesome companion to an active family willing to exercise him. Scooter would love a canine companion, one that likes to play would be a bonus. He should go to a cat free home. He has been very friendly with everyone he has met but has kittens been around children since with us. His temperament seems good so older respectful children should fine.  He rides like a dream in the car. A fenced yard is preferred. Scooter is house trained and crate trained. He is neutered and all his vetting is up to date. Scooter’s adoption fee is $225. If interested in Scooter, please email hartmanshounds@gmail.com.November 8, 2026, 12:07 am

Story
We’re looking for an adult-only home for Scout with an experienced adopter who can understand and manage his behavioral needs. This is a difficult decision, but our home with young children is no longer a safe fit. Scout has growled and lunged at family members and has a history of nipping, including an incident involving a child that caused bruising without breaking the skin. He needs a home without children and someone prepared to work with a veterinarian or qualified behavior professional. Our priority is a safe, lasting match for Scout and his new household. We’ll openly discuss his history, routines, and needs with anyone considering adoption.

Story
Maggi is a very loving, sweet, playful, smart dog. She listens well, loves having a task, and knows many commands. She just turned 5, has all her shots, sleeps in kennel, does well at doggy daycare, and weighs around 45lbs. She is very protective of us but warms up to people quickly. We are hoping to rehome her with a loving owner who is okay with her separation anxiety/barking, which is proving difficult for us with a small child and our busy schedules. If you love doggie cuddles, a loyal friend, and good little guard dog that gets lots of compliments, Maggi might be your girl.

Story
Frankie is a 3.5 year old mini Australian shepherd. She has been in our home with our 3 kids, our other dogs, cats, and chickens. She is spade and had all shots. She is great with the children and with the other animals. She does have a little bit of a reactive personality and is typically a little fearful when guests come over, especially men. She is house-trained but does have accidents when excited/scared. She has had a lot of room to roam in her life and hasn't spent much time on a leash. She is very smart and knows sit, stay, down, and come.

Story
 Sweet 1 1/2 year old Amy is in the market for a new loving home and would prefer a more quiet laid back setting. She is 38 lbs of a perfect mix of australian shepherd (her dad) and boxer/pit mix (her mom). A single lady would be prefered as she's not quite sure of men yet, but we are sure could learn to love them too? She did spend the first 6 months of her life in a pen outside with her littermates, so she is a bit shy and awkward. Once in a new home, she is loving and a loyal velcro pooch. Amy has completed a 6 week training course. No children please, as she was adopted and returned due to her being afraid of littles! Amy can jump around a lot and play r (with people and other dogs) so she is not a good fit for seniors or people with small dogs. She is freat in her crste while you are at work. She rarely barks. Very playful. If you would like to be considered to adopt Amy please fill out the application today. She is up to date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped, and a loving little girl. Her adoption fee is $250. To meet her you can do a non-obligatory application at www.pawsandprayers.org.  Any questions, email krueger9367@yahoo.com      November 10, 2026, 5:09 pm

Story
Moose is an older Australian shepherd/boarder collie. He is a very lovable and a great companion. Moose is VERY anxious and does not do well with new people, fast movements with new people. He is food aggressive with other dogs but also food focused with reward. The reason we need to rehome is my wife and I are expecting and given his age, and time we have to adjust, we dont think we can give him the success he needs. Truly, he is an incredible guard dog that ive had since he was a young pup. This decision is not an easy one but truly he will be incredible anyone that has the time.
