Meet Rocky he is a 3 year old boxer pit bull mix. He is a very sweet boy that I found running loose in Westerville Ohio. Ive had him now for 5 months. The only reason I’m not keeping him is space my financials and I already have 2 dogs. But back to Rocky I believe he was raised with an iron fist. He can be startled by things but is easily assured. He loves bones and toys!! Overall a great dog loves to lay on the couch and prefers sleeping in the bed while touching you, lol. He has learned that talking to him sternly doesn’t mean that he’s gonna get hit or he’s in trouble. It just means he needs to listen and focus and he listens really well. I think he would be great for a young person.That’s just looking to have a companion. I don’t have kids so I say no kids just b/c he doesn’t like to be pulled on,moved/pushed. The truth is he just wants to be loved petted some treats toys and you will make him so happy. I just want the best for him he deserves to know the best life a dog can have.

6yo, 40lb Hobbs is a sweet little guy. He was a rescue that has done well in our household for years until the recent arrival of our baby. The transition has not gone well and he deserves to have a home where he can receive the love and attention he needs. He does well with routine and a job to do, fetch is his favorite, has no prey drive, crated at night but will sleep whether door is open or closed, walks well on a leash, indifferent to other dogs in passing, house trained but needs structure. Very smart, very trainable. Would not do well in a home with babies/toddlers Important - Experience with working dogs will serve you well - the maintenance of these types of breeds is unlike most others and it is important that negative reinforcement to control behavior is not used.

Penny is a wonderful dog! She is very active! We are rehoming her because she is not getting along with our cat. We fear our home is making her too anxious and is putting our cat at risk. Penny needs walked at least twice a day and does best with additional mental and physical exercise! Like most herding dogs, she wants a job! And in our house she has decided her job is to keep the cats in line and play fetch. Has never had an accident in the house. Very food motivated so very trainable. Good on leash, but leash reactive to some dogs. Does not really care for other dogs off leash, but not agressive. Shy and anxious, especially towards men. Takes several meetings before warming up to new people in her home. Great manners, does not jump up on people or lick faces. She doesn't really like being on the furniture unless you ask her to cuddle with you. She will cuddle for a bit, but then wants her space. Best to go to a home without kids over 6 since they would understand her boundaries.

Henry and Raaz are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. They were bonded as puppies and rely on each other for emotional stability. I got them two years ago and Henry is 6 turning 7 soon on April 4th. Raaz is 7. They are very kind dogs who are moderately trained with tricks, going to their crates independently and giving space when needed. Henry is the goofball of the two. While he is a bit of a doofus, he is such a lover boy. His favorite things are playing with the laser, getting pets and chicken fat as a special treat. Raaz is a grumpy old lady with a heart of gold. She shows her young spirit when playing ball or laser and she loves Beggin for Bacon dog treats (or even better, real bacon). There has been some family medical issues and I am no longer able to home or take care of them properly. They will come with their crates that they recognize as their room and I will provide half a months food that goes with their diet. They both love a sprinkler in the summer as well

Penny came to us from Franklin County rescue at 3 years of age. She’s an energetic and happy but also loves to relax when she’s at home and comfortable. She absolutely loves being outside and taking road trips. She does get agitated when meeting new dogs, especially those that are reactive but warms up relatively quickly. She lived with another dog for a year and they got along great. That said I would not recommend her for homes with cats or other small critters.

Seamus is a 1 year-old mixed breed dog who weighs 45 lbs. If you are looking for a dog who will fit in with your active lifestyle, Seamus could be a great match for you! Seamus is a high-energy dog who easily becomes overstimulated. When excited, he will mouth and jump at people. He does settle well in a home, but will need the help of extra enrichments, exercise, and training to reduce his mouthy behaviors. Seamus does great with other dogs and would likely benefit from having another dog in the home that he can play with. Seamus is an intelligent, fun-loving dog who still has a lot to learn. He is looking for an experienced adopter who is willing to put lots of time and energy into his training. When meeting Seamus, he will become excitable and will likely start to mouth at you. But, he does listen very well, and will respond to a firm `no.` Due to these behaviors, we recommend that he be adopted to a home with more mature children who can understand and participate in his training. Seamus will be a wonderful adventure companion, and he is ready to find a home that fits his needs!
