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.

I was asked to give a dog a home, so I adopted him. My dog, Lucky is a very sweet dog. His previous owner lived in Georgia, and Lucky was abused. Since he had been with my kids and I, he's been very playful, loving, and caring. I just can't give him the love he deserves. I work all the time and my kids aren't home a lot to care for Lucky. He's territorial, so he pees everywhere and on everything. It's too much on me right now. Lucky is half lab and half pit bull. The person I got him from didn't get his shots or gotten him registered. Again it's a lot with being a single parent and keeping up with everything. I just want Lucky to have a loving family. He's great with kids, adults, and other pets.

Herbie will need an experienced adopter, preferably a home with another dog, he is very playful, I see how much he would love a play mate. Herbie is loving and can get really anxious when left alone . It takes him a little time to warm up in a new environment so he may cry at night or have an accident in the house. Please be patient with him. Other than that, he loves people, loves kids especially and dogs. He barks only at the bell ringing , does not bark at people or other dogs . Loves a good tummy rub and most especially he loves the outdoors. His refill for a dewormer, flea and ticks are due in May . Only serious inquiries. Thank you

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

Meet Gamera! She was found as a stray...Or really, she found us! Gamera was running loose around CHA and she walked right through the front door. She is a 1 year-old mixed breed dog who weighs 43 lbs. We`re so glad Gamera found her way to us, because she is the sweetest girl. Gamera is very affectionate, and enjoys spending as much time with her people as possible. She is equally happy to curl up on a cozy blanket for some cuddles as she is to go for a long walk. While Gamera is super sociable with people, she does not love interacting with other dogs or cats. Due to this, she would do best in a home where she is the only pet. Gamera has plenty of love to give though, and will make a wonderful companion!

Dale is ready to go home! He is a 3 month-old mixed breed puppy who will grow to be a large sized dog. He arrived at CHA when his owner could no longer care for him. This little guy is full of personality. He is rambunctious, energetic, and very silly. Dale loves spending time outside, and he also does well playing with other dogs. As with any puppy, he will benefit from continued positive reinforcement training as he learns his basic manners and skills. If you are looking to add some puppy goofiness to your life, Dale could be the perfect fit.

Roxie is a 7 year-old Boxer/Doberman mix who weighs 67 lbs. She was surrendered to CHA when her owner could no longer care for her. Her previous owner reported that she lived with cats, children, and other dogs. Since being at CHA, she has done well meeting other dogs, but prefers to coexist rather than play. Though she is an older girl who enjoys those leisurely moments, she still has a lot of pep in her step! She loves to play with her stuffed toys, play bowing and throwing them around the room. Roxie also likes exploring and is a great walking buddy with wonderful leash manners. If you`re looking for a playful, affectionate, intelligent dog, come meet Roxie today!
