For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
Wreck-it-Ralph is a handsome 1-1/2 year old male Pit Bull Terrier who came to the HSOV on September 26, 2024 after he was picked up on Lancaster Street/State Route 676 in Waterford Ohio by the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden. Ralph was accompanied by a cute female Pit Bull Terrier (Vanellope) who is most likely his sister. Neither of this adorable pair were wearing a collar, and they were not microchipped.
Wreck-it-Ralph has a chocolate brown short smooth coat with white markings on his chest/belly, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable symmetrically-marked face with light brown eyes, a pink/brown nose, and semi-erect ears.
Ralph & Vanellope have super friendly outgoing personalities and were eager to reach out for attention from everyone who walked by their kennel when they arrived,
These photos of Wreck-it-Ralph were taken late in the afternoon on September 26, 2024 when HSOV Kennel Tech Emma Dahlgren helped him with his Petfinder/Facebook photos before he was 'booked into our hotel for dogs'. Ralph was much too excited to be with Emma for fun and games instead of posing for boring still-life pictures.
Wreck-it-Ralph weighs 57 lbs and is rather strong on a leash.
In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Wreck-it-Ralph will be held for three days so that his family will have an opportunity to reclaim him with proof of ownership.
