Story
We are accepting applications for our sweet girl, Lorelai. She was a pull from Memphis Animal Services, on September 21, 2022. When she came to us she weighed 26lbs & was heartworm positive, She is with a foster who was getting her through her first few critical months, but still has her. She is more than ready for her furever love!! She is completely house trained, and is a very well behaved house guest. She loves all people, though she is more comfortable with her doggie friends who are more on the chill side. She has gone through her heartworm treatment, over 6 months ago. She is extremely sweet, despite all of the horrors that she endured before coming into our rescue.

Story
Hello, my name is Clooney! Clooney is a courtesy posting for a kind & loving family who sadly find themselves in a position of needing to lovingly rehome this gorgeous, sweet dog. Clooney wrote up a description of himself and he would like you to read it: "I am a mixed Brindle Pitbull breed and am about 3.5 years old. I am a big cuddle bug and sometimes don't even know my own size as I always sit with my owner on her recliner. Although we both don't fit very well, I love to snuggle . I have really big paws and I love to play with the hose in the summer. Its my favorite activity! I am so excited to see all the guests that come to my house to visit. Although I may need some work on jumping as I get so excited. I do really well with other dogs although I've never met any kitties. I think I may be just a tad rough with my house play that I may be best to be in a house with no children or adults only as I don't know my own strength. One of my other favorite past times is to lay in front of the fireplace on cold nights. I'm looking for my forever home and a family that I can continue to love unconditionally. Give me a few chew bones , an occasional toss of the stick and I will be the happiest big pitty ever! Take a peak at my adorable photos and I will melt your heart." If interested in adopting handsome Clooney, please submit an online application on the PAWS Ohio website @ www.pawsohio.org under the ADOPT tab. Thank you!

Story
Meet Hazel. She is a female Tricolor Bully. She is super sweet & extremely food motivated!! She knows basic commands, is a super gentle treat taker, rides well in the car. Hazel’s foster mom wrote this about her… Hazel is a sweet girl with tons of love to give. She takes a little time to warm up but once she does, there’s no going back. She loves cuddles and rubs and most of all treats! She can be defensive when her space is invaded by other animals so she would do best as an only pet. She is fully potty trained and does good in her crate. After a tough start in life, she deserves someone who will adore her and give her a nice, relaxing life. Female - spay date is 10/10/24 Will finish her vaccines on 10/22/24 HW Negative Positive for Lymes Weighs 64 lbs. Aprox. 3 years old She is available for foster to adopt.

Story
Nino, who will be one year old this December, is a sweet, loving, and energetic dog. He enjoys walks, playing fetch, running around outside, and getting belly rubs. He is always smiling, especially when treats are involved. I adopted Nino in early February from my cousin who fosters dog, and he has been a joy in my life. However, with my demanding schedule between work and college, I'm finding it difficult to give him the attention and care he truly deserves. This has been a tough decision to make, but I truly believe that rehoming Nino will allow him to get the love, time, and attention he needs to thrive. It's heartbreaking for me to let him go, but I know it's what's best for him.

Story
We'd like to re-introduce you to Winnie, a remarkable dog who's come a long way since we last introduced her a few months ago. If you remember she rescued by a Good Samaritan and had an an iliac fracture and MAJOR ear troubles. Thanks to the unwavering support of our incredible community, we were able to provide her with the necessary medical care, granting her the gift of a pain-free life through total ear canal ablation surgery she needed. Now, the time has come for us to find Winnie her forever home. At around 5-6 years old, Winnie is not just any dog; she's a TOTAL SWEETHEART! She has been living with a foster and has shown great compatibility with their other large dog, Scottie. Day by day, she's making huge strides in meeting new people. Instead of being terrified, she now greets strangers with excitement. Her transformation is nothing short of inspiring. Winnie does reasonably well around cats but may need some separation when left alone. She's learning to understand them, but she’s not aggressive towards them. When it comes to children, we believe she would thrive best in a home with older kids, as her playfulness can be exuberant, akin to a bull in a China shop. She also can be a bit mouthy when she wants attention, but it’s more gentle and nothing major. For Winnie, a fenced-in yard would be ideal, she would thrive in an active home and one that can continue nurturing her newfound confidence. Is that with you? If you are interested in potentially meeting Winnie, send us a message!
