Story
Dunkan is around 1 yr old and about 24 lbs.  He is great with other dogs, loves people and snuggle time.  He is playful, fun, energetic, and generally loves life.  He is crate trained, seems to be housetrained (based on his behavior here) and likes to go for walks. He likes to sit in your lap and absorb all of the attention he can get.  He will be neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, wormed and microchipped before going to his new home.   Anyone interested in him must stop in to meet him and complete an application.  **our application is NOT online.  He must meet any dog that is currently in your home before adoption will be approved.   Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH. 419-946-1747August 7, 2024, 4:35 pm

Story
Buddy appears to be a Jack Russell Terrier/other terrier mix. He is around 1 year of age and weighs 24 pounds. He was found under a bridge in one of the local dumping areas. It is no surprise that Buddy was scared when we first got him, but he quickly warmed up. He loves getting attention from his people. He loves pets and being close to his humans. He loves belly rubs and will roll over on his back whenever you bend over to pick him up. Buddy is small but mighty. He is muscular and high-energy and requires exercise. He loves to run and wrestle with other dogs. Sometimes, he can be naughty and will intimidate one of our more submissive dogs. Yet he backs down when one of the chihuahuas or another dog puts him in his place. Buddy is generally a good boy, and training is a work in progress. He listens well and comes when called. He is crate-trained and fairly well-behaved in the house. We are working on teaching him manners. He gets jumpy when he wants attention and more training is needed. He responds well to "no" and the "tsch" correction (as used by Cesar Milan). It would be best if applicants have dog experience and are willing to hire a trainer if necessary. Buddy would love his new family to play with him, take him on walks, cuddle, and give him a lot of affection and belly rubs. Buddy must be an inside dog and a loved member of the family. He must be walked on a leash and have a secure, fenced yard to run and play. Buddy is neutered, tattooed, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. He is heartworm-negative and receives monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Buddy is ready to change his zip code. He is located in Texas but can be transported after he is adopted. Buddy's adoption fee includes the cost of ground transport by a reputable and trusted transport company to several scheduled stops in Ohio - including but not limited to - Columbus, Cincinnati, and Akron OH. Please email 2manydogstx@gmail.com if you would like to adopt this sweet, active little guy.
