Sylvia (brindle pug mix) is hanging with her fosters while she waits for the perfect home that will meet her where she is at. Sylvia, her Mama, and siblings got off to a rough start. This family was passed through a couple of homes before they were surrendered to Rico with Parvo. Sylvia was the only pup not diagnosed with Parvo, but she was treated anyway since it was just a matter of time before she also would have parvo.Sylvia is tiny (8.5 lbs.), and very agile. She has made progress trusting humans; however, she still has a way to go. Sylvia initially squirmed away from her fosters as far as she could go and would not take food from their hands. Now she checks each finger for a treat, curls up next to her fosters to sleep on the couch, plays with her fosters, and lets her fosters rub her belly or scratch her back. Sylvia is not a fan of being picked up, but she will tolerate it since she knows a treat will follow. Her date of birth is 12.7.24.It would probably be best for Sylvia to be adopted with her Mama (Joan). Joan weighs in at 18 lbs and is especially fond of women. Joan LOVES her puppies and was the perfect protective Mama as she was passed through homes and treated at vets. Joan has attached herself to her foster mom so we know that she can form meaningful attachments with people. Joan's estimated age is about 3 years old. Both dogs are making great progress at potty training with scheduled potty times outside and a pocketful of treats. Both dogs make eye contact with their foster mom to make sure she is watching while they do their business and then run to her for a treat after.A fence is a must for these pups. A trial adoption for Joan taught her foster parents that she was too busy watching out for other people or animals to relax and potty while on leash. These pups would be the perfect addition to the right home. Until then, her foster parents will love them to pieces. You can apply to meet Sylvia and her mama, Joan at ricopetrecovery.org.

Joan is very friendly and just wants to be near her people.When Joan was placed on a trial adoption, it became evident that she was extremely attached to her puppies and would not do well separated from all of them.

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##

She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. She has also had a dental cleaning. Olivia requires a home with a companion dog of similar size/energy and a secure, physically fenced yard. Olivia is a mill mom who is just the sweetest girl. She is a little shy but once she warms up to you, she will be your best friend! She loves her person but also loves to be alone and sleep on her foster mom’s bed. She is LOVES treats and will eat all her foster sisters treats if she could. She likes toys and loves to bring them to bed with her. She will need a patient home as she is working on mastering the art of potty training. She is still shy of the “outside world’ so leash walking is a little scary. Olivia definitely needs to have a fur-sibling of similar size and energy to learn all the dog things from. She is such a sweet girl and just wants to be loved!

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. November 19, 2024, 7:49 pm

He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning with some extractions but has recovered well. Chancey came into rescue through no fault of his own when his owner was no longer able to care for him. He’s a mature boy that loves food (including fruits & vegetables), riding in the car, his person, porch sitting and cuddling. Chancey does fairly well on housetraining in his foster home and should continue to do so if kept on a schedule. He prefers to sleep in your bed, but will sleep elsewhere. Chancey vocalizes when he wants something as well as when he doesn't like something. Due to the volume of Chancey’s sass, he is not a candidate for apartment living. He loves attention from people and he would love a quiet home with no children under the age of 10-12. He currently lives with another low energy dog but has very little interaction. Chancey would do well as an only dog. He is on medications for arthritis pain. It is difficult for Chancey to climb stairs due to the arthritis. A ranch style home would be ideal for him.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.

He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines, started on heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention. Timmy came into rescue when his family couldn't care for him any longer, and he ended up at the local shelter in Tennessee. A Good Sam was able to get him moved to a rescue for vision-impaired dogs, where his damaged eyes were removed. They then chose OFP to get this guy a forever home. Timmy is sweet, loving, very happy dog! He is able to get around by moving slowly, and he has excellent smell and hearing. He loves chewy and squeaky toys, walks great on a leash, playing with smaller dogs. Timmy would benefit from a home where someone is there often, and can walk with and engage him in play. He has made outstanding progress with housetraining, but does best when kept on a schedule.

He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning. Although Hayes came into rescue from a puppy mill with the typical behaviors, today, he is a happy, playful guy, plays with toys, looks out the windows, the patio and the screened porch, and likes to be chased. In fact, you might just think he is a bit shy. He will carry his toys around with him, and so he will help with the laundry if you drop anything on the floor! He sits to allow his harness and leash to be put on. He comes when you call him. He loves dinner time and treats (no calling is necessary - he knows where to go!) and he would give his favorite stuffie for another dog to play with. He has turned into quite the power walker, and enjoys going, setting a brisk pace, and will do his business. He travels calmly and relaxed in the car. Housetraining is most successful when he is kept on a schedule. He will need a fenced yard. He also may need medicated baths to limit yeast growth. The perfect home for Hayes will have patient humans, and a companion dog who is easy-going, will take him on walks, and make sure he has lots of toys. He has come so far. Does your pack have room for this little guy? He sure hopes so!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.

She has been spayed, microchipped, and is fully vaccinated—including rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella. She has tested negative for heartworms and is on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Destiny has also had a dental cleaning. Destiny came into rescue through no fault of her own after being released from a commercial puppy mill—but don’t let that deter you. She has made incredible progress in foster care and is blossoming into a confident, happy girl. She walks well on a leash and does not require a fenced yard. Destiny is Miss Independent—she doesn’t need a companion dog but gets along well with other animals. Her favorite things include chasing leaves, playing with toys, enjoying dental chews, and simply being near her person. She loves companionship but isn’t overly affectionate, which makes her a great match for someone who appreciates a calm, loyal presence. Destiny would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time, as she doesn’t enjoy being left alone for long periods. She’s doing well with potty training when kept on a consistent schedule. Destiny is ready to find her forever family—the one who will give her the life she’s always deserved.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.

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 1, 2025, 1:25 pm
