Story
My wife and I adopted Ricky from a family friend. Dad is a purebred border collie, and Mom is a purebred American pitbull. We were looking for a younger friend for our one dog to keep her active. After having two kids (a 2-year-old daughter and a 2-month-old son), making sure Ricky gets time to play and keeping up with cleaning has become too much for us. Ricky is a very loving dog and loves to play. He needs playtime and affection, but our children are not big enough to play with him. He doesn't know his own size and thinks that everybody loves "kisses." Which doesn't work well with a toddler and an infant. It's really hard for us to ask for someone to adopt him because he has been such a great pet, but we worry for the safety of our children due to his size and lack of knowing how big he is. He likes to play rough and needs a home where he has space to run around and play with other animals. He has never nipped or bit at our children or other people. Willing to pay to re-home.

Story
Pretty is a pure bred shorthaired border collie, 2 years old. She is strong, gentle, affectionate. She desires to be obedient, listens and learns well, but had not been properly trained and may have some habits in need of correction. She has a strong a strong herding instinct, so she could make a good working farm dog. She is bold, but afraid of loud sudden noises such a thunder, fireworks, and gun shots, from which she seeks shelter or barks with concern at the sky. She would be a wonderful companion or family pet regardless. She has lived outside full time.  She gets along well with our four boys, ages 9–15, as well neighboring kids and adults. She has no fear of strangers and is friendly with everyone. Ideally, a new home would offer lots of outdoor time and space like she is accustomed to. A family that has breed experience. She could live indoors with outside time, but may not be compatible with smaller pets because of her strong prey drive, and will need to be house trained. She is familiar with basic commands such as her name, come, sit, lie down, wait, and thank you (break word). Adoption app: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/12786/generic ##2095927##

Story
Hi everyone!  My name is Annabelle!   I am a 5 year old Border Collie mix weighing in at about 40 pounds.  I am great with kids and people of all ages really.  I may be shy at first but I warm up pretty quickly.  I get along with other dogs as long as they respect my space at first until we get to know each other then I'm happy to play and cuddle with them too.  I don't mind cats, I let them do their own thing.  I enjoy to relax on the couch hanging out with my people and I equally love going on long walks and run around.  I sometimes get really excited when I want to go outside and I'll put on a show and dance for you and bark sometimes but not too loud.  I do well on leashes, I don't pull much.  I am house trained.  I will willingly go in my crate when told to but it isn't necessarily my favorite place. Please leave a comfy blanket and toys in there for me. All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   November 13, 2024, 4:34 pm

Story
Space is a 9 month old medium size dog. She loves other dogs and has done well with cats. Space needs a special adopter that will give her time to realize people aren’t so scary. She has made a TON of progress at her foster home but is still very timid at times. She gets SO excited to see you after work but still only wants to be pet on her own terms. She will do best in a home with no children, another dog to help build her confidence, and her own yard, as she is not leash trained. She is very fearful of the leash, leading us to believe she may have had a traumatic experience involving a leash before coming to HART. This dog absolutely loves to be comfy. All she wants is a comfortable bed or to curl up by your feet on the couch. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog that does not beg for constant attention or a friend to keep your dog busy while you’re at work, Space could be a great choice for you. If interested in meeting Space please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org!

Story
In Washington Courthouse Ohio - Meet Miss Jovie, aka your new best friend! We don’t know too much about her past aside from being dumped in southern Ohio to fend for herself before landing herself at a local shelter to then being rescued by ASF. How someone could dump this one-in-a-million dog is beyond me. But she hasn’t let her past affect her one bit! This sweet angel is estimated to be between 12 and 18 months old. She’s a 50 pound lap dog of true unconditional love. She looks and acts just like a big teddy bear. We call her the Golden Retriever of Aussies because of her laid back, super social personality. She has the softest fur and the fluffiest tail. She truly is a very special, one of a kind girl who deserves nothing but the best. Anyone that has met her has instantly fallen in love, stealing your heart instantly. Jovie gets along wonderfully with other dogs, dog-savvy cats, children and all people! She demands all the pets from whoever she meets. She loves going on car rides and the minute she sees her leash her excitement soars! An all-around happy go-lucky gal! Jovie loves giving kisses, getting belly rubs and being held like a baby and all you have to do is look at her and she’s instantly wagging her tail. Jovie is okay on the leash, she does tend to get distracted by everything around her so she will need someone who can dedicate the time to work on those leash skills. She’s getting better each time, but having another dog sibling to help her learn those skills would be best. She also likes to, very gently, jump up on you (she just wants to give you all the hugs and face kisses she can). We have been working on the no jump but she just can’t help herself - she’s got to show you how much she loves you and the only way to do that is to be right up in your face! Jovie will also pet you, she takes her paw and will pull your hand to her to get the attention and pets she is requesting - I mean hey, at least she knows what she wants! But she is very gentle with everything she does and never means any harm in her jumps and pets. She’s a big baby and the sweetest one at that! Jovie would be happy to go on walks or just lay on the couch with you. I’d say she’s a medium energy girl, when she does get too excited she can calm down very quickly with a look or a tone. And did I mention how well she listens and how smart she is? Jovie picks up on things very quickly and is the best listener. This girl is very expressive and if she has done something that she knows she isn’t allowed to do, the look she gives you will break your heart. We do think that having another doggie sibling for a playmate would be best for Jovie as she’s still a puppy and just wants to play. Jovie is more on the submissive side, I don’t believe she has an aggressive bone in her body! (Her 10 pound foster sister will put Jovie in line if she starts acting up.) She also doesn’t like being alone so someone who works from home or, like I said, a dog companion is best. A fenced in yard would also be ideal because she loves sprinting around the yard, especially in the snow! She is potty trained and crate trained. She likes to chew on her bones but doesn’t have too much of an interest in toys. She’s not destructive but wants whatever her foster brother and sister have and once they take their eye off their toy Jovie swoops in and takes it for herself. Jovie is spayed, UTD on all vaccines and on monthly flea/tick & heartworm preventatives. She is being fostered in Washington Court House, Ohio. If she sounds perfect for you, please fill out our application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to her new furever family. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.

Story
Meet Livvy! Livvy is such a cute, sweet perfect balance of fun and cuddles. She loves playing with other dogs and loves being by your side. Livvy was found abandoned when she was just a tiny puppy and she is now learning, growing and thriving! Livvy is crate trained, potty trained and is doing well with basic commands. She is 5 1/2 months old and about 20 lbs! Don’t let her size fool you, she plays with her 80 lb. fosters siblings and keeps up just fine! She has been around dogs and cats and does well with both, although she is somewhat scared of our three-year-old cat. She is great with adults and children and is so excited to meet everyone! We believe her to be a mix of Pit, American Bulldog, American Eskimo, Toy poodle, Maltese and a few other breeds! (DNA Test said so)! Though she is on the smaller side, she is healthy and full of energy! She loves to run with the other dogs and follow what they do. A perfect day for Livvy is lots of playtime outside in the yard playing with her doggy siblings, and then snuggling up to rest. She loves the kiddie pool and will just go swimming when she is hot! She also loves to sunbathe and gets super excited for her walks! Though she is crate trained during nap time, she sleeps in bed with her foster parents and she absolutely loves bedtime! She will get up and snuggle under the covers! She is potty trained and uses the bell to let us know she needs to go potty and will also ring the bell when she wants to go outside and play. Livvy is super smart and is already learning so much! We are working on sit and stay, and she knows where we keep the treats and will sit and wait for one. Livvy loves chewing on bones and squeaky, crinkly toys. She gets so excited to play and will keep you laughing! This sweet girl would do best in a home with children or another dog. She loves the interaction and lights up when the kids come home from school. She also gets extremely excited to have another dog to run around with so we definitely want her to have at least one dog in the home. If you think Livvy would be a perfect fit for your family, fill out our adoption application here: https://www.coopersafeplace.org/application-page Livvy’s adoption fee is $450.
