Story

Gracie is five years old. She is a pitbull mix. Gracie is spayed and housebroken. She is also micro chipped. Gracie loves her people fiercely and greets you with a wagging tail and wiggling body. Gracie loves to play with toys, chew on bones, play tug with the rope, hunt lizards and sniff the ENTIRE yard. She is not the biggest fan of clothing. She loves to give kisses and snuggle and is happy to sleep on the end of the bed if given the opportunity. She is afraid of loud noises such as fireworks. Her arch nemesis is the vacuum. She would be best suited for a home without cats or small dogs.

Mookie

Staffordshire Bull Terrier Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 3 yrs 1 mo

Cincinnati, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention,

Story

Mookie is 45 lb, adult female, three-year-old, submissive, well-trained, very playful and gentle American Bully. Mookie gets along well with ANY HUMAN, younger and smaller animals such as kittens and puppies. She can be rambunctious when it comes to dogs her size, however, she tires quickly. She has never had an experience with an older cat. She is absolutely not an attacked dog or a watchdog. So if that's what you need she is not the one. Mookie is a rescue from a breeder who could not sell her due being the runt and multiple ailments that have been stabilized for a few years. Mookie has a compressed tailbone which causes her to experience pain and limited mobility in her hind legs. She is fully stabilized now but she will eventually need wheels for her hind legs and should never go on long walks or frequently up and down the stairs. Mookie will always need HYDROLYZED dog food due to her gastrointestinal sensitivity and two types of medications for her hind legs (Carprofen and Gabapentin) unless you find an awesome vet who can manage her condition with a more natural approach. Mookie is house trained with no accidents but currently uses a doggie door at her liberty. Even though she is well-trained in different ways you may have to work with her to get her on a bathroom schedule or establish some type of communication that she needs to use the bathroom. The American Bully has been recognized by the European Bully Kennel Club and the United Kennel Club. American Bullies have been bred to be a human companion dog. When you adopt Mookie, he will bring his own kennel, harness, leash, stroller, toys, massage mittens, feeding bowls, and lots of blankets. The works! Note: This is a curtesy post for a friend of Crazy Cats. Mookie is not in our care. Please call Lynette to discuss Mookie and her adoption at 513-605-0771.

Rosie

Chihuahua

Female, 7 yrs 5 mos

Cincinnati, OH

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Hi, I am Rosie and I am super shy. I am about 6 years old, have been with HART since June 2021 and am looking for a home to call my own. I came from a hoarding situation where over 150 doggies just like me were living together in a small house. My ideal space will either be with one of my friends (King is extra snuggly) or in a home with a dog about my size to hang around. I am a pretty easy going gal and am not territorial about my food, toys or treats. I don't mind cats but a doggie friend is a must for me. I am happiest if I get to roam around a yard with a fence as I have rarely been on a leash and just don't like it. I think I could learn to love humans and their attention but I will need time and patience as I am just learning what it is like to be loved. Think you might be the family for me? Please fill out an adoption application NOW at rescueahart.org as I have been waiting way too long for a place to call my own!

Clementine

Chihuahua

Female, 7 yrs 10 mos

Cincinnati, OH

Size

Story

Do you want a small dog companion but NOT a lap dog? Do you want a dog who will run from you rather than towards you? Do you want a dog who prefers the company of other dogs over you? Well then I have got the perfect dog for you!! Please give a warm welcome to Clementine! In all seriousness, she is an adorable little girl. Clementine came to Hart in June 2021 and has been in the same foster home ever since. She with so many others was rescued from a hoarding situation in Tennessee. To this day, she still exhibits nervousness around people. For this reason, she is looking for a very special adopter. The adopter will need to be very patient with her and give her ample time to show her brand of affection. While she still runs from me if I try to approach her to pet her, she does make her way over to me at bedtime for lovings. She will even sleep in bed with me and give me some sweet kisses. But when it’s time to get up, she darts away again. I truly can’t explain it but I have learned to accept it. Clementine does great with her doggy friends. She is most comfortable with other dogs. The ideal adopter will have another dog in the home that will groom and “mother” her. She loves having a dog around that she can curl up with!! Also, since she is hard to catch, a fenced in yard would be best for her. Due to the fact that Clementine can be a challenge to catch and she does not come when called, any meet/greets will have to be done at the adopter’s home and only within 25 miles of the Northern Kentucky area. PS Guard your socks. She loves socks (haha)

Trenton

English Pointer

Male, 3 yrs

Cincinnati, OH

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Trenton! This good boy is the whole package! He is a mixed breed, best guess English pointer/boxer mix, and no one breed is evident. He is 2-year-old medium sized (55 pound) love bug who is gentle and adores kids. He is house trained. It does not appear he has been taught basic commands, but he should be a quick learner as he learned the doggy door ropes in a single day. The crate is not his favorite. He will go in when bribed with delicious treats and sleep quietly through the night. He mimics the vibe of the house by playing when we are active and snuggling on couch when we are quiet. He also gets along with other dogs, playing or backing off at the appropriate times. As he has settled into his foster home, he has started wrestling with the alpha dog of the house. Trenton deserves someone who will shower him with attention, car rides and rounds of fetch. He is everyone’s best friend, can he be yours? Trenton is neutered and up to date on all vaccines, flea and heartworm medication.

Story

Hello, fantastic friends! I'm Vader, a soon-to-be 2-year-old with a heart of gold, celebrating my birthday on Dec. 5th! 🎉 Here's a glimpse into why I'm the perfect fit for your loving family: I'm a cuddle connoisseur, belly rub enthusiast, and expert kisser. Treats make my tail wag, and I'm a smart, gentle soul eager to please my new family. A certified conversationalist, I'll gaze into your eyes as we share our thoughts. Rescued with my brother Celery after a West Virginia tornado, my foster parents adored us. While they can only keep one of us due to some sibling logistics, I come with heaps of love, ready to capture your heart. I'm an 70lb Border Collie German Shepherd mix, currently living harmoniously with two fabulous female dogs. I'm open to meeting more furry friends, with a preference for females. Cats, however, aren't my cup of tea. Dreaming of a bustling home with kids and furry companions, a fenced-in yard or a sprawling farm would be ideal. I'm a Gary's Professional Dog Grooming and Training graduate, well-behaved, crate-trained, and ready to learn more. A bit of extra training won't hurt, but patience is my forte. I may need a gentle reminder for commands like "off," but my excitement is just a friendly jump. Seeking a loving, playful, and gentle giant? That's me! Let's embark on this journey together. If interested in meeting Vader please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org.
