I adopted him from a shelter that won’t take him back due to full capacity. The woman who surrendered him said that the breeder gave him to her as a gift but could not maintain his grooming and hygiene (which I do). He is completely up to date on all his vaccinations and takes monthly flea/tick/ heartworm prevention. He is completely house broken and crate trained and sleeps through the night. His snoring is the cutest! He is very loyal and loves to be around people. He follows me everywhere and loves attention. He is wonderful in the car and loves the outdoors. He is energetic and loves to play with toys and play fetch. He would do best in a house without cats where he has plenty of room to play and explore. He loves his healthy dog treats and rawhide free bones. My daughter has many activities and I have a demanding job and he needs the attention that he deserves as a loyal companion. I have a 4 year old cat that he is not fond of and it is not getting better unfortunately

Mama Joan and her babies got off to a rough start. This family was passed through a couple of homes before they were surrendered to Rico with Parvo. They were all treated, and they all recovered!Joan weighs 18 lbs and her estimated age is about 3 years old. Joan is crate-trained, gets along with the foster's resident dogs and seems to have been loved by someone at one time. She would love her own human to snuggle with on the couch and live her best life! Joan is especially fond of women. Joan LOVES her puppies and was the perfect protective Mama as she was passed through homes and treated at vets. Joan has attached herself to her foster mom so we know that she can form meaningful attachments with people. Joan is very friendly and just wants to be near her people.When Joan was placed on a trial adoption, it became evident that she was extremely attached to her puppies and would not do well separated from all of them. Therefore, Rico would prefer for Joan to be adopted together with her daughter, Sylvia.Sylvia is tiny (8.5 lbs.), and very agile. She has made progress trusting humans; however, she still has a way to go. Sylvia initially squirmed away from her fosters as far as she could go and would not take food from their hands. Now she checks each finger for a treat, curls up next to her fosters to sleep on the couch, plays with her fosters, and lets her fosters rub her belly or scratch her back. Sylvia is not a fan of being picked up, but she will tolerate it since she knows a treat will follow. Her date of birth is 12.7.24.Both Joan and Sylvia are making great progress at potty training with scheduled potty times outside and a pocketful of treats. Both dogs make eye contact with their foster mom to make sure she is watching while they do their business and then run to her for a treat after.A fence is a must for these pups. They are not comfortable going potty while on leash.These pups would be the perfect addition to the right home. Until then, her foster parents will love them to pieces. You can apply to meet Joan and her daughter Sylvia at ricopetrecovery.org.

Sylvia (brindle pug mix) is hanging with her fosters while she waits for the perfect home that will meet her where she is at. Sylvia, her Mama, and siblings got off to a rough start. This family was passed through a couple of homes before they were surrendered to Rico with Parvo. Sylvia was the only pup not diagnosed with Parvo, but she was treated anyway since it was just a matter of time before she also would have parvo.Sylvia is tiny (8.5 lbs.), and very agile. She has made progress trusting humans; however, she still has a way to go. Sylvia initially squirmed away from her fosters as far as she could go and would not take food from their hands. Now she checks each finger for a treat, curls up next to her fosters to sleep on the couch, plays with her fosters, and lets her fosters rub her belly or scratch her back. Sylvia is not a fan of being picked up, but she will tolerate it since she knows a treat will follow. Her date of birth is 12.7.24.It would probably be best for Sylvia to be adopted with her Mama (Joan). Joan weighs in at 18 lbs and is especially fond of women. Joan LOVES her puppies and was the perfect protective Mama as she was passed through homes and treated at vets. Joan has attached herself to her foster mom so we know that she can form meaningful attachments with people. Joan's estimated age is about 3 years old. Both dogs are making great progress at potty training with scheduled potty times outside and a pocketful of treats. Both dogs make eye contact with their foster mom to make sure she is watching while they do their business and then run to her for a treat after.A fence is a must for these pups. A trial adoption for Joan taught her foster parents that she was too busy watching out for other people or animals to relax and potty while on leash. These pups would be the perfect addition to the right home. Until then, her foster parents will love them to pieces. You can apply to meet Sylvia and her mama, Joan at ricopetrecovery.org.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Quinn’s adoption donation is $475 and she is being fostered in Central Ohio. She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. She has also had a dental cleaning. Meet Quinn – Your Future Snuggle Buddy! With her soulful eyes and heart full of love, Quinn is a typical shih tzu who’s ready to find her forever person. This little sweetheart is a total cuddlebug who wants nothing more than to be by your side—whether you're watching TV, going for a walk, or sneaking her a bite of your snack (yes, she's always down to share your meal!). Quinn lives for love and affection. She’s happiest being held, doted on, and included in everything you do. She's playful in a gentle, quirky way—she adores toys (especially tearing them apart!) and will adorably stand on her back legs to paw at you when she wants attention. Trust us, it’s impossible to resist. She’s low energy, content to snooze the day away between short walks and cuddle sessions. While she’s not super into other dogs, she coexists peacefully with them and is also good with cats. Older, calm kids would likely be a good match too. That said, Quinn’s journey hasn’t been easy—she’s a puppy mill survivor, so she’s still learning to trust. Strangers make her nervous at first, and she’s not a fan of crates. But with patience, love, and a gentle hand, she blossoms into a loyal, loving companion who will follow you anywhere. Her ideal home? Quiet, calm, and filled with love. She’d do best with someone who’s home often, enjoys daily walks, and can help her continue to build confidence. She has dry eye and will need daily eye drops (she’s a bit squirmy about it—but we’re working on it!). Potty training is a work in progress; she uses puppy pads but sometimes has accidents if left unsupervised. A patient adopter who can support her routine will help her thrive. Quinn may have had a rough start, but she has so much love to give. If you're looking for a sweet, silly, and devoted little shadow who just wants to be loved—Quinn is your girl.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence.

He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworm and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning. Freddie came into rescue through no fault of his own when his owner unexpectedly had to surrender him. Freddie is a super easy going dog who loves his people! He is friendly, loves toys and is overall a good boy. He really likes his walks and exploring in the yard. Freddie does not need a fenced in yard but does need a companion dog. Freddie can't wait to find his forever home, will you be it? Freddie does get anxiety when riding in a car or being left alone at home without other dogs or people. He is fine as long as others are around though. Freddie's potty habits are very good. He let's you know when he has to go out. He is a very sweet dog and is friendly to all. He likes people and dogs alike, although I am not sure about cats. He loves his little blue hoodie, and he looks adorable in it.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hayes’s adoption donation is $500 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning. Although Hayes came into rescue from a puppy mill with the typical behaviors, today, he is a happy, playful guy, plays with toys, looks out the windows, the patio and the screened porch, and likes to be chased. In fact, you might just think he is a bit shy. He will carry his toys around with him, and so he will help with the laundry if you drop anything on the floor! He sits to allow his harness and leash to be put on. He comes when you call him. He loves dinner time and treats (no calling is necessary - he knows where to go!) and he would give his favorite stuffie for another dog to play with. He has turned into quite the power walker, and enjoys going, setting a brisk pace, and will do his business. He travels calmly and relaxed in the car. Housetraining is most successful when he is kept on a schedule. He will need a fenced yard. He also may need medicated baths to limit yeast growth. The perfect home for Hayes will have patient humans, and a companion dog who is easy-going, will take him on walks, and make sure he has lots of toys. He has come so far. Does your pack have room for this little guy? He sure hopes so!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Chancey's adoption donation is $350 and he is being fostered in Mansfield, Ohio. Chancey has received top-notch veterinary care: he’s neutered, microchipped, up to date on rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella vaccines, heartworm negative and on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He’s also had a dental cleaning with a few extractions and has recovered beautifully—now he's ready to flash that sweet senior smile your way! Meet Chancey – A Distinguished Gentleman Looking for Love Chancey is the very definition of a gentle soul. This handsome senior came into rescue through no fault of his own, and while life may have shifted, his loving heart and charming personality shine brighter than ever. At this stage in life, Chancey knows what he likes: porch sitting, car rides, tasty treats (he's a fan of fruits and veggies!), and most of all—being close to his person. He’s a true cuddle connoisseur who prefers a cozy bed (yours, if you don’t mind sharing), a warm lap, and a quiet home where he can enjoy the good life at a slower pace. Chancey does well with house training when kept on a schedule and is learning to communicate his needs—sometimes with a little extra volume! Chancey believes in speaking his mind—his sassy commentary adds to his charm, but it does make him better suited to a home without shared walls.' He’s currently living with another low-energy dog, though he’d also be perfectly content as the center of your world. He’s on medication to keep his arthritis pain managed, but stairs can be tricky for him—so a ranch-style home or one with minimal steps would be perfect. Chancey may have a few gray hairs, but he’s still got so much love to give. He’s looking for a calm, loving home (without young children) where he can bask in attention, enjoy the occasional healthy snack, and soak up every moment of his golden years. Looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold and a big personality? Chancey is ready to be your devoted best friend.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.

Interested in two small fluffy senior dogs? Meet Bessie Boo and her 'sister' Daisy Mae, our maltese/shih tzu mixes. They lost the only home they've ever known when their owner passed away and are looking for a new retirement home where they can stay together. We dont know if they are actually sisters but they are both 11 years old. Bessie is a black and white ball of fluff and is the larger of the two at 11 lbs. She will not sleep or eat without her motherly Daisy Mae. They will curl up together with a bed and blanket or sleep in your bed if allowed. Bessie is quiet but will talk to you if you talk to her. She does snore softly. So cute!Bessie loves being a lap baby and enjoys stretching out on the back of the couch. Larger dogs scare her but she is fine with small dogs and pays no mind to the vets cat. If you tell her go potty she will go outside with you. Both are used to living with a woman, but have no problems with getting attention from men. They have been around older children but not toddlers.These two have a very special bond and have touched our hearts. We really want to keep them together, so if you have room for two tiny quiet girls, apply at www.caninecollective.org.
