Story
Evie is an excited, enthusiastic young pup with lots of love and energy to give! Evie loves giving kisses (licks) and snuggling up close. She is good with kids and other dogs, and can live with cats. Evie is very strong and still learning about her own strength and size. She is about 50 pounds and we estimate around 10 months old. She is very playful, loves chewtoys and bones, and playing with other dogs. She enjoys running around the backyard with her two besties (other dog in the house + neighbor dog). Evie is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on all her vaccines. She is crate-trained and would benefit from additional training.

Story
What a face! Humphrey is a big doofus. When he arrived he weighed 14 lbs. He was living in a crate and being starved to death. But with the right vet care and foster he is now 40 lbs and loving life. He still wants to eat too fast so he uses a special bowl to slow him down. Humphrey is still learning he can go outside to potty and he doesn't have to do his business in his crate. At some point his ears were cut off, probably with scissors, but that doesn't seem to bother him. And it just gives him a special look, along with his squatty muscular body. He needs a strong person to help him keep learning life can be good. He can be reactive with some dogs. No idea about cats but probably should not live with them. He does think he should be a lap dog and loves belly rubs. I am in a foster home so if you are interested in adoptiong me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.  Due to the large number of inquiries we receive, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.  February 11, 2025, 6:40 am

Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We adopted Percy from the Franklin County Animal Shelter in 2022. He is approximately 4 years old. He is potty trained, crate trained and does well on a leash. Percy loves to play with his ball and go on walks. He is also a big cuddler in bed. Percy would do best with experienced owners as is reactive to certain triggers and has been aggressive in the past. We believe with the right training and experience he will thrive. He has been started with some training, but we are moving in a couple months and just don’t feel we can give him the right time and environment.

Story
Shiloh is an almost 3-year old mix of pit bull, Australian cattle dog, German Shepherd and Labrador Retriever. As a puppy, he was abandoned with his siblings in a park and was adopted through Rico Pet Recovery. Through no fault of his own, Shiloh is now looking for a new home.He weighs 48 pounds, is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines, house trained and leash-trained. He knows several commands and his current owner describes him as a sweet dog who likes to cuddle.Shiloh is a high-energy dog and would do best in a home with active adults who have time to work with him. He hasn't had exposure to children and would probably do best with no kids or ones that are older. He is very comfortable with women, and although he is afraid of men, he warms up quickly to them in the home. When out on a leash, Shiloh will 'yell' at men. He likes to protect his territory from other dogs and doesn't care for dogs approaching the fence. No cats, please.Shiloh's adoption fee is $250. You can apply for him at ricopetrecovery.org.

Penny has really settled in.Her playful side is showing more and more especially since introducing her to foster brother, Max. He was a bit reserved at firsthe lets her know when its enough and she responds well. Ultimately theyve claimed a couch as their own, napping on opposite ends together. She also has embraced a little more independence. Her foster mom can actually go into another room without her worrying or crying. This doesnt mean she still isnt the biggest cuddle bug!! Whats personal space?!?!Her coat is becoming softer and the bare spots continue to fill in. Her tail is slowly healing and hasnt bleed in more than a week!We continue to work on her training and shes responding positively. She really is a sweet girlYou can apply to meet Penelope at ricopetrecovery.orgAdoption fee is $250
