Story
Hi, I’m Duncan! I’m a 6(ish) year old French Bulldog looking for forever family that’s willing to take on a special needs boy. I am crate trained and house broken. I am good on a leash and love to go for walks-though I do need to work on my manners when it comes to meeting new people and losing any of my toys under the couch. My two favorite things are to play ball and go for car rides! I do NOT like other dogs, cats, or small animals so I will need to be the only love of your life. I’m a little too busy to be a cuddle bug but I promise to play anytime you want and I’m really, really good at making people laugh! While I am a very sweet, playful, funny guy I do come with a plethora of allergies and skin issues that are going to be a lifelong battle for me and my forever family. What do you get in return? I’m an adorable boy and about the best adventure buddy you could hope for. Let’s go! Due to high volume, inquiries made on petfinder and adoptapet will not be answered.

Story
Hi my name is Korg and I don’t know exactly when I was born but you can pick and we’ll celebrate any day. I’m probably around a year old but age is only a number! I am a big headed guy who loves to play with my duck and my foster parents say my zoomies are the best. I love to run and play and I’ve even gone running with my foster Mom a few times. I am working on my manners and leash skills but I’m a fast learner! I do have a lot of energy, but I also enjoy a good nap in my crate or snuggled on the couch. I would have to meet any 4-legged siblings and might do best with older kids who understand I’m very strong, which I might forget sometimes. I know at the end of the day, I’m a big ole guy just looking for a loving family who will help me keep learning to be the best boy! My family requires a fenced in yard and within an hour of Toledo, Ohio. Due to high volume, inquiries made on petfinder and adoptapet will not be answered.

Story
Meet Meeko! Meeko is a funny little guy who loves snacks (just like his name sake). His favorite time of day is dinner time. His favorite game is grabbing a toy and running away while you (or another dog) chase him. His favorite person is the one with a lap. Meeko is about 3 years old, and gets along with other dogs of all sizes, and loves kids. He would do best in a home without cats. Meeko is also very demanding, and would not be suited for apartment living due to his loud barking. Adopters must live within 30 minutes of the Toledo area.

Story
My name is Milo and my foster mom says to know me is to love me. She said I’m the funniest puppy she’s ever taken care of and that I keep her laughing with my silliness. It doesn’t hurt that I am also ridiculously good looking. I’m very smart and let her know when I need to go outside to go potty. I’m working on my basic commands and am very food motivated. If you love to give treats, I’m your guy! I’m a social butterfly and love all dogs and people, she thinks I’d do best in a home with another dog to play with, of course I’d have to meet them to make sure they like me, but like she says, what’s not to love? If you’d like me to consider you for my forever home, fill out the app! I was born 8/26/23. Applicants must live within 30min of Toledo, OH.
