DewyMaleAge: 12 yearsWeight: 15 lbsBreed: Lhasa Apso Hi! I’m Dewy. I am a sweet and loving guy who is good with other dogs and even cats. I do best in a calm and quiet home, as loud noises and too much activity make me nervous. Because of this, I’d prefer a home with older children who understand that I need gentle care. I’m working hard my house training, am leash-trained, and crate-trained, but I do need to be crated when left alone—it’s my safe space where I can relax. One of my favorite things is spending time outside, sniffing around and taking in all the smells at my own leisurely pace. I also love meeting new four-legged friends—my tail wags like crazy whenever I see them! I enjoy watching other dogs play with toys, though I haven’t quite figured out how to join in yet. Maybe one day! I also appreciate my gentle brushing sessions—they make me feel fancy, and I think I look pretty good afterward too! While I may be a little shy at first, I promise I’m as sweet and loving as they come. I’m still learning the ropes of living in a home, but I’ve come a long way and am discovering how wonderful a cozy bed and a warm spot by the heater can be. I’m also thriving on a schedule—it helps me feel safe and secure. I have Lyme Disease, but I’m on medication and doing well. I’ve had a rough life, but I’m finally getting to experience what it means to be loved and cared for. I’m still opening up, but I know that with the right person, I’ll continue to blossom. If you’re looking for a gentle, quiet companion to spoil with love, patience, and warm naps, I just might be the perfect match for you! I will also have to be neutered and have an appointment set for early April. If you are interested in meeting Dewy apply to adopt him at www.causeforcanines.org Adoption fee: $195 Must be an Ohio resident & 23 or older. Children must be 10 or older. ##2319424##

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Timmy's adoption donation is $500 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, and is fully vaccinated—including rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella. He has tested negative for heartworms and is on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Timmy has also had a dental cleaning to ensure his smile is as healthy as his spirit. Meet Timmy – A Little Dog with a Big Heart and an Even Bigger Spirit At just two and a half years old, Timmy has already shown the kind of resilience and joy that can light up a home. This sweet, twenty-pound Shih Tzu may be sight-impaired, but don’t let that fool you—he’s full of life, love, and plenty of tail wags. Timmy’s journey hasn’t been easy. He landed in a Tennessee shelter when his family could no longer care for him, but thanks to a series of kind-hearted rescuers, he made his way to safety, had his damaged eyes removed, and is now living his best life in foster care while he waits for his forever home. Despite his vision loss, Timmy has adapted beautifully. He navigates his world with a little patience, a lot of sniffing, and a great sense of hearing. He walks well on a leash, adores chewy and squeaky toys, and loves playtime with other small dogs. He also enjoys car rides, cuddles, and being the ultimate lap dog. This boy thrives on companionship and would love a home where someone is around often to engage him, walk with him, and share lots of love. He’s making fantastic progress with housetraining and does best with a consistent routine. While we’re not sure how he does with cats or young kids, he gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Timmy is fully vetted—neutered, microchipped, up to date on all his vaccines, and on heartworm and flea prevention. He’s healthy, happy, and ready to share his boundless affection with a family of his own. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate companion who will show you how beautiful life can be—one step, one snuggle at a time—Timmy might just be your perfect match.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. If you go to the individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog. Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here: http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. 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. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. No application is approved prior to the home visit being done. At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer. We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio. April 2, 2025, 12:42 pm

Toy Poodle fun facts

Fun Facts:

Toy Poodles may have been used in truffle hunting, as their delicate paws would not have harmed the truffles.

In the mid-19th century, it became popular to dye the fur of Toy Poodles, as well as ushering in an era of outlandish haircuts for them. Their status as companion dogs for the middle- and upper-classes was well-established by the 1880s.

Elvis was an original vanguard of the Poodle craze. He owned several over the years, and even had a Poodle named Champagne when he was stationed in Germany. He was known to give them out as gifts to the women in his life.
