Story
Leo is 4 months old. Got him from a reputable pet store in Erie, PA. Bought him when he was 2 months old. Adorable. Loves attention, people, other dogs, dog toys. Loves walks. Kennel trained. I sadly have to rehome home, as my hours at work have changed(went from 8 hours to 12 hours a day). Not fair for Leo to be alone all that time with being with no one, and to be kenneled. Will come with kennel, toys, food, treats, bowls, Micro chipped certificate, vaccination papers. $2500 or best offer. You will love him!

Story
Lane will be 10 in April. I have had her since she was a puppy. She is very independent and easy going. She has plenty of energy to walk, but is also at the age where she doesn't need to be walked. We brought home our baby 6 months ago and Lane is clearly not happy (not aggressive, just won't come inside unless REALLY lured or the door is left open). She's not much of a snuggler and you can often find her curled up on her bed or basking in the sun outside. We have another dog in the house - 1.5 year old Golden - they get along great. She is the MOST gentle dog when taking treats, she often is so gentle she drops them! She is up to date on all her vaccines and has no health problems - just a few benign lumps (that come with age) that have been checked out and are not a concern.

Story
Say hello to Dozer!Dozer is a 7 year old Pitbull/Boxer who weighs in at about 77lbs. Dozer can be shy to meet new people but is very friendly and affectionate once he warms up. He also has a very goofy personality and is sure to make you laugh. Dozer can be picky when it comes to other dogs so a slow introduction would be beneficial if he were to live in a home with other pets. Due to Dozer`s shy and timid nature if he were to live in a home with children they would have to be 10-13 and up.If Dozer sounds like your forever friend give us a call at 330-487-0333 ext 803 to learn more about him , or stop by the facility at 752 Portage Trail, ext W, 44313.

Story
Meet Frazier, our resilient companion who`s been waiting for over a year and a half to find his forever home. Frazier, a 7-year-old Pit Bull mix weighing 46 pounds, is a little bundle of energy that can`t get enough of his toys! His absolute favorite? Rope toys for endless rounds of tug-of-war. Frazier`s enthusiasm extends to his love for walks, and each morning, he`s eager to run around and explore the great outdoors. This cuddly and goofy pup has so much love to give, and he can`t wait to find that special someone who`ll appreciate his unique charm. As you can see from his adorable video, he is venturing into the world of dock diving and has been doing wonderfully so far. He would definitely make a great companion for someone who loves the water as much as he does!Despite the challenges, Frazier`s heart is full of love, and he`s ready to share it with his new best friend. However, Frazier prefers to be the only dog in his forever home due to some nervousness around other dogs. For a peaceful and loving environment, if there are children in his forever home, he`s seeking a family with children ages 16 and older.If Frazier is too cute to pass up, please stop in at our new shelter to meet him!
