Story
Chili is a beautiful 4-year old (possible) Border Collie/Whippet mix who was brought to HSOV on November 5, 2024 after she was found in Marietta Ohio. Chili was quite visibly pregnant when she entered our shelter and our compassionate HSOV staff kept a close watchful eye on her since it seemed that she would likely give birth in the next few days. Chili was taken to one of our wonderful local veterinarians on November 11th since she hadn’t given birth on her own, and she underwent a Cesarean Section. Chili gave birth to 11 premature puppies and, in spite of heroic efforts by everyone involved, none of the babies survived ☹ Chili was spayed while she was under anesthesia and returned to HSOV a few days later where she followed doctor’s orders (bed rest/relaxation and no strenuous activity) and remained in a quiet room of her own. Chili has a black-and-white short smooth coat, black freckles/ticking on her front legs, a long tail, and an adorable symmetrically-marked face with dark brown eyes, a slender muzzle, and large semi-erect/horizontal ears. Chili has a sweet, outgoing personality. This collection of photos were taken on December 16, 2024. Chili is very photogenic so it's difficult not to get carried away when she is posing. Chili was a good sport about wearing Christmas costumes when she was "rockin' around the HSOV Christmas tree" on December 16th with HSOV Shelter Manager Tracy Lynn Moore... With the exception of not being thrilled about the hooded snowman suit. Chili loves her people friends but is a bit selective about which dogs she accepts into her circle of friends (and she is a bit jealous of other dogs when it comes to receiving attention). Chili loves to snuggle on the shelter sofa when she is treated to social outings in the lobby . Chili weighs approximately 60 lbs and is fairly energetic. She loves to jump on her human friends for attention and may unintentionally knock small/young children down. This gorgeous empty-nester is ready to find a loving home of her very own.

Chili has a sweet, outgoing personality. This collection of photos were taken during the month of November 2024 beginning with the first day we had the pleasure of meeting Chili on November 5th and HSOV Kennel Tech Emily Beaver accompanied her for photos in the HSOV lobby. The second set of photos were taken on November 7th when Chili was in her spacious 'maternity ward' near the hallway/lobby of our shelter. Chili looked so beautiful that day relaxing on a bright red-and-black plaid blanket. The last set of photos were taken on November 17th when Chili was recuperating from the loss of her puppies. HSOV Volunteer Emma Dahlgren had Chili outdoors that afternoon to spend some time in the sunshine/fresh air .. And Chili was showered with attention from Emma. Chili loves her people friends but is a bit selective about which dogs she accepts into her circle of friends (and she is a bit jealous of other dogs when it comes to receiving attention). Chili loves to snuggle on the shelter sofa when she is treated to social outings in the lobby. Chili weighs approximately 60 lbs and is fairly energetic.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Introducing Axton! This sweet boy was one of the brightest kids in The DASH Prison Training Program where he brushed up on his house manners before he went to his current foster home. His foster mom said he's such a cuddle bug! In the program, he did well learning to walk on a leash and did not complain about being in his crate but would much rather be out snuggling with his people. He worked on "sit, down, stay, wait, & leave it." (Of course, continued work on these commands will keep him perfect)!  His handler said he is very intelligent, attentive, affectionate, and has become comfortable enough to snore in his sleep. Axton is a social boy, who seems to love all people, as well as other dogs! Axton also likes his toys and playing in water. He is energetic at play time but also loves when it's time to chill out. Axton did so well and consistent with practicing his basic commands, he moved on to tricks - He was learning to speak! He is ready for his new family. He's got his tuxedo on ready for his big day when he gets adopted. Let's not disappoint this good boy.  * Note: Axton is part of our Foster to Adopt program.

Story
ABOUT ME… Hello, I am Dante!! I am a Border Collie mix who may be a bit shy when you first meet me, but don’t let that fool you—I am quick to warm up. With my soulful eyes and soft, wavy coat, I hope I can soon be your best friend, eager to explore the world and stay close by your side. I love discovering new places, whether it's a walk through the park or an adventure in the backyard. I am still little so sometimes I need your reassurance. I love to cuddle and give kisses. I am in a house with elementary age children and 1 other dog who is 2 years old, who is teaching me the ropes and I am a fast learner! I AM GREAT WITH… I get along great with the other dogs and like children. I am a fast learner. I am learning to share and learn boundaries and treats drive me to learn more. I am doing really well on my crate training and with the right toys and cozy blanket enjoy my time in the crate. I AM STILL WORKING ON… I was not potty trained, but I am working hard on it, and I hardly have any accidents now. I go outside and inside very easily. My foster family has a doggie door and I can go in and out when I need to go. I'm also learning to stand by the door to let my foster family know I have to go outside. I AM NOT GOOD WITH… I have not met a cat yet so I do not know how I feel about them. I REQUIRE… Just a little patience and understanding while I learn and explore the world around me. I am curious and love to explore and hope you will be my new best friend. **All animals in our care are spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested (age 1 & up), given preventatives, and provided with initial vaccinations AT MINIMUM. Booster shots are included in the adoption fee and will be performed at our clinic, or the adopter can use their own vet at their expense. Adopters must reside within 2 hours of Columbus, OH. No transportation assistance is available.**

Story
Meet PONZI! 🐾 Ponzi through no fault of his own find his little cute self on a euthanasia list in a small rural shelter due to lack of space. We could not let that happen and he is ever grateful. This guy is a pleasure to come home to for his foster mom. Always there with an excited smile on his face. He is just happy to have somewhere safe to land until his forever home comes along. Anyone would be very happy to call this pup their own. 💖 Personality: Full of personality, goofy, playful and energetic. Ponzi has a wonderful disposition. He takes correction wonderfully and seems to be a very quick learner. Ponzi gets along with all his foster mates and anyone that comes his way. He never meets a stranger. And is a quick heart stealer. Ideal Home: PONZI would do great in a family that has space to roam and explore, and maybe even another doggy sibling to make friends with. He would also be just fine as a single pup. This fella is super easy. If you are looking for a life-long companion and friend Ponzi is perfect for you. If you’re ready to give Ponzi a lifetime of belly rubs, treats, and a cozy bed, please reach out! 🐶💕 Once adopted he will travel via the Rescue Transport to her new family. They travel each and every weekend from Memphis, Tennessee to the north east, delivering pups along the way as far north as West Greenwich, Rhode Island. Transport is an additional $185. If you would like to make this cutie part of your family please follow the link below to our adoption application. Our turnaround time is typically less than 24 hours so please be prepared before you submit your application. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9
