Story
This cute little guy (Wile E. Coyote) was brought to the HSOV on June 19, 2024 by a Good Samaritan who had found him the previous day on Oakwood Avenue in Marietta Ohio and tried in vain to locate his family. Wile E. Coyote was wearing a collar with a partial tie-out/leash attached but there was neither an id tag nor a dog license tag on his collar .. And he was not microchipped. And in case you are wondering, there were no sightings of The Road Runner in the vicinity where Wile E. Coyote was found (smile). Wile E. Coyote is a 10-month old male German Shepherd mix. He has a black-and-brown/tan short smooth coat with white highlights on his chest, a long tail, and an adorable face with beautiful brown eyes, a tan mask, and large erect ears. This young man appears to have a happy, outgoing personality. These photos were taken on June 21, 2024 when Wile E. was enjoying some fresh air in one of our covered/shaded outdoor kennels. The afternoon temperatures that day reached 95 degrees which was much too hot/humid for photos in our usual grassy area (which is in direct sunshine), so the better part of valor (and common sense) dictated that we'd settle for a less-than-perfect backdrop in order to be able to post pictures of this little sweetheart. Wile E. Coyote weighs 46 lbs and isn't a very large boy when you see him in person. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Wile E. Coyote will be held for three days so that his family will have an opportunity to reclaim him with proof of ownership. Update: Wile E. Coyote was neutered on August 5, 2024 and was also given rabies vaccine.

Story
Nash is a magnificent 5-1/2 year old male German Shepherd who was surrendered by his tearful owner on August 7, 2024. Nash has a black medium-haired coat with white markings on his chest, a long fluffy tail, and a classic German Shepherd face with beautiful brown eyes, a slender muzzle, and large erect ears. His original told us that Nash is good with children and had shared a home with them all of his life. Nash is good with other dogs, but he is NOT good with cats. Nash has been kept unconfined indoors (both during the day and night), and he enjoyed being outdoors in his yard. Nash is housetrained and is crate-trained. Nash knows several basic commands including "sit, stay, down, and shake". He is afraid of loud noises, thunder, and lightning (and shows his fear by shaking and/or hiding). Nash's only known behavioral issues are aggression toward cats and excessive barking when he is left alone. Nash loves water and loves to swim. He enjoys all types of toys (especially rope toys and balls). Nash was neutered on June 13, 2023 and was also given rabies vaccine. These photos of Nash were taken on August 7, 2024 when HSOV Kennel Tech Cadince Bibbee accompanied him for updated pictures. Nash was the perfect gentleman for Cadince and stayed close to her for reassurance. Nash weighed 93 lbs on August 7, 2024 and walked gently on a leash for Cadince. Nash may look familiar to some of our HSOV followers and volunteers since he was adopted from HSOV in June 2023. Nash had been been wonderful in his home but there was a new baby recently, and it was decided that Nash should find another family (though Nash had not shown any negative behavior toward the new arrival).

Story
Sasha is an adorable one-year old female German Shepherd who arrived at the HSOV after closing time on August 7, 2024 after she was placed in an outside kennel. Unfortunately the individual(s) who placed her there did not leave any information about her, so we are unsure whether she is an owner surrender or if she was found as a stray. Sasha has a light brown-and-cream coat, a long fluffy tail with black shading, and a beautiful Shepherd face with hopeful trusting eyes, black shading on her slender muzzle, and extra-large erect ears. Sasha was full of playful puppy-like energy when HSOV Volunteer Emma Dahlgren spent time with Sasha for her outdoor photos on the afternoon of August 8, 2024. Sasha adored attention from Emma and posed for photos like a professional .. And then (much to her delight) Sasha royally entertained Emma by doing some Olympic-quality "zoomies' around Emma after her photo session was deemed worthy of a gold medal. Sasha was given vaccinations, wormer, and flea/tick treatment on August 12, 2024. She weighed 49 lbs that day. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Sasha was held for three days so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership. Surprisingly nobody called or came looking for this sweet young lady.
