Hello! I'm Shiloh and I'm a smart, happy, handsome old fella at 11 years old. But I'm still an active boy who loves to run and play. I love to run so much that my adopter will require a fenced in yard. I know a lot of tricks that I will gladly show you in exchange for some treats. I LOVE treats, YUM! I can sit, shake, sit up, catch and roll over! I love all humans and I get along with other dogs too. I like to play with my toys and I really love getting my belly rubbed. If you think I would be a good fit for your home please go to www.toledospetbullproject.com and fill out an application.

Story
Meet Icy. Hi my name is Icy and I was born July 24, 2022.  I am a big love bug and would like nothing more than to crawl into your arms to snuggle. I love to run and play with my toys. I am very food motivated! My foster parents say I would be easy to train because of how much I like food. I  know some basic commands like sit, down, come, and leave it.  I am also potty trained and crate trained, and I’m working on my loose leash walking skills. I am up to date on all my vaccinations, I have been spayed, and I get monthly flea and tick/heartworm prevention. I would love to become a part of your family!  I am looking for a home with no other dogs or cats. Applicants must have a fenced in yard.Due to high volume, inquiries made on petfinder and adoptapet will not be answered.

Hi, my name is Minnie but my foster people call me MyMy. If you look up “chill” in the dictionary you’ll probably see a picture of me. I rarely bark or make a fuss.

I don’t pull on the leash or jump up on people and I’m crate trained but I’d rather be by your side. Even though I’m pretty much the total package sInce I’m still a baby I’ll need a family willing to help me continue to learn to be the best I can be. Is that you? I was born 8/26/23. Applicants must live within an hour of Toledo, OH. Due to high volume, inquiries made on petfinder and adoptapet will not be answered.

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.

Story
Hi, I'm Nina! I'm a sensitive girl, and I've had more than my share of moving in my 3 years of life. I love snuggling with my people, going for car rides, playing with my dog friends, and sunbathing. I don't like being left home, I deal with it okay, but be prepared to hold me and tell me you love me when you come home. I am an all around good girl. I don't chew things I'm not supposed to, I can share toys and food, and I get along with everyone. I do have a habit of jumping on people when they come in the house, and I've had a few potty accidents, but I'm working on both. I think I'm pretty amazing, if you think so too, apply to adopt me today! Applicants should be within 1 hour of Toledo.

Story
Hi, I’m Duncan! I’m a 6(ish) year old French Bulldog looking for a 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. My allergies are severe and I will require a home that has the financial ability to take care of me. I MUST be on Apoquel daily and will require a monthly Cytopoint injection along with the Apoquel when allergy season hits. I also require a special prescription food. The lucky person who gets me will have to keep up the care routine my foster family does for me every day in order to keep my skin issues from flaring up, which include a wiping my wrinkles and problem areas down with antifungal wipes, using a special foam when I start to get itchy, and regular ear maintenance, cleaning and medication. Needless to say, my person needs to have experience with giving meds and wipe downs to a dog that’s always on the move. I’m a bit bougie, but I’m worth it: on a GOOD month my expenses will be around $300, so I’m looking for a family with some cash to spare. I do get chronic ear and skin infections that will require lots of vet visits and antibiotics, so you can expect some months to be $500+ on my care. It is very important that I find someone who is willing and financially able to take care of me, because I have a substantial history of severe skin and ear infections. When I came to TPBP a few months ago, it was due to an untreated skin infection that developed into a very antibiotic resistant staph infection and took months of treatment for me to get any relief and grow my hair back. It would be great to find a family who could go above and beyond for me, such as consulting allergy and skin specialists and nutritionists to give me the best, most comfortable life possible. 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.
