JoeJoe

This is JoeJoe, he’s the cutest little Beagle/Spitz mix! JoeJoe’s previous owners were senior citizens with health issues and could no longer care for him, so he came to us. He is a truly happy, affectionate, adorable guy. He’s good with other dogs, barks at cats and loves people. He is working on his basic commands and leash manners in our canine/inmate program. If you would like to meet JoeJoe please fill out an online application.

ADOPT received a holiday update on Willa from her forever family! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!! 🙂

Willa is the love of our life ;). We are still working on her with strangers – she is no longer shy … now she wants to protect her family. She also loves her sister Latte and her friend next door – Clarke. They play for hours!!!

We are sooooo happy with her. ❤️

Tiger Lily

Posted December 21, 2016 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Tiger Lily is one of four siblings that arrived without either parent, so we don’t have any info on their history. They appear to be Beagle mixes and our best assumption is that they’ll be around 30 lbs full grown. Lily is a typical puppy…sweet, affectionate, and spunky. Please remember that bringing a new puppy into your family is an exciting time…but it is also a lifelong commitment to training, socializing, and caring for this new addition (not to mention the occasional loss of a shoe!) If you are ready to give Lily her forever home, please fill out an online application.
Estimated birthdate: 10/15/2016
Weight: 8 lbs (30-ish full grown. This is an approximation!!)
Good with kids: yes
Good with cats: young enough to socialize
Housebroken: doing well, in progress

Tucker

Meet Tucker! He’s a fantasic Yellow Lab mix, is the perfect size, and gets along with everyone. We have not tested him ourselves with cats but were told by the originating shelter that he does fine with them. He is unfazed by other dogs and likes kids as well. He loves snacks and treats of all kinds so he is easily motivated to learn and please his person! Tucker has entered the canine/inmate program where he is being taught his basic commands. He will make a wonderful companion to any family or individual. If you would like to meet this good natured & handsome dog, please fill out an online application.
Estimated birthdate: January 2015
Weight: 40 lbs
Good with kids: yes
Good with cats: yes (we were told, have not tested through our rescue.)

Linus

Posted December 21, 2016 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

This adorable hound mix was a favorite at the shelter he came from because he loved to carry his blankie with him. We are thrilled to have him as part of our program – he’s just as sweet as he is cute! What we know about Linus is this: he rides quietly in the car, he loves everyone that he meets (including other dogs and cats) and he loves to give “hugs!” With his blankie in tow, Linus has headed to our canine/inmate program and is hoping to find his forever home soon! To meet this sweetheart, please fill out an online application.

ADOPT received an update on Molly (formerly Bernadette) from her new family! We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!! 🙂

Molly is doing wonderfully in her new home! Loves the backyard, playing ball, and snuggling with her mom. Molly’s owner is non-hearing and Molly is being trained to alert her to sounds and provide other assistance. We’re so happy that this is a great match!

Tiny Tim

Posted December 6, 2016 | Posted in Adoptions Pending Comments Closed

Tiny Tim is an adorable Chihuahua/Terrier(?) mix who arrived with 2 of his brothers. He is the smallest of the group, a snuggler, and a great puppy all around. He’s doing great with puppy pad training and knows to go in his crate and wait patiently for his food! We don’t have any history on this litter so it is still too early to guess how big they will ultimately be (best guess no more than 12-15 lbs.) Tiny will need continued socialization, training and vet care to be a happy and well balanced boy. Because he still needs vaccination boosters and his neuter surgery by our local veterinarian, he can be adopted in the COLUMBUS vicinity only. If you’d like to meet this little man, please fill out an online application.

Dolly

This young girl arrived with her sister and brother from a rural kill shelter in Kentucky. She is a Lab/hound (Bloodhound, perhaps?) mix and loves to find all the new scents on the ground!
Dolly is the most outgoing of the group and has no fear! She loves people, animals, and is a typical boisterous puppy. Like all young pups, she will need continued guidance, socialization and training in order to be a well balanced and happy dog. Please think carefully and prepare for a lifetime commitment before adopting any new pet into your home. If you would like to meet Dolly, please fill out an online application!
