Story
Meet Lennox!! He is a little over a year old (born 10/22) German Shepherd mix who weighs 65 pounds! He is looking for his forever people. Lennox is a very active boy who will do well with clear instructions and consistency. He is working on the words “no, stay, sit, back off, leave it, drop it, house, and done”. He still has an occasional accident in the house especially when he is focused on play. He loves a good tennis ball and can play for hours. He is learning to walk without pulling, gets excited when he sees dogs his own size and seems to want to chase cats that run. He has lived with cats before, but testing is critical. In his foster home, he has a fenced in yard, but does not like to be out on his own. He really wants someone to play ball with him. Currently he is working on “house’ during the workday and ‘house’ overnight. He does well through the night, but he will bark for a short time until he settles down. He is still working on spending the day in the crate. He would thrive in an active family who could take him out for several walks or to play ball. He is a loving boy with a big heart, loves to cuddle on the couch, and did we mention he loves his tennis balls. If you would like to meet Lennox please fill out an application at www.rescueahart.org

Story
Hello, fantastic friends! I'm Vader, a 3-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 65lb 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.

Story
K-Ci is a beautiful, long-haired Shepherd mix who desperately wants a break from shelter life. He came to us as a transfer from an overcrowded shelter down in Tennessee, and now he waits here in Cincinnati for his next journey. K-Ci is an intelligent, active, loving boy who thoroughly enjoys long walks and exploring nature. He can be a bit uncertain in new situations- but with a little patience and love, he blossoms out of his shell and settles in. K-Ci gets deeply attached to his friends, loving hard and always wanting to be around his people. K-Ci has been on multiple short-term foster trips through our Paw Pass program, and always has a blast! He does great during car rides, is becoming more and more eager to meet strangers when out and about, and can sleep soundly at the shelter after getting so much enrichment and stimulation. He`s a smart cookie, already knowing basic commands like `sit`, `down`, and `no.` In a foster home, he also proved to be housebroken and crate-trained! His Shepherd brain is always looking for new things to learn and new ways to bond with his people by making them happy. K-Ci does well in playgroups at the shelter with other dogs! He is a high-energy, intense player who loves it when other dogs can match his speed. If you have canine friends at home, it`d be a good idea to bring them to the shelter to see if they would be a good fit to be K-Ci`s new family! K-Ci has limited experience with human children and has never been around cats before. Although we cannot do cat meet and greets at the shelter, we do recommend bringing children along!If your family sounds like the perfect fit to give this amazing dog the break he deserves, come visit him at SPCA Cincinnati today to adopt or take him on a Paw Pass!

Meet AJ !! He`s a loyal and loving dog. AJ is house broken. In his spare time he loves playing in the outside, making sure squirrels stay out the yard. This handsome boy enjoys his treats and laying in his bed. Even though this boy has some energy, he loves to cuddle in the bed with you.

AJ would like a proper Introduction to get to know you better. If AJ sounds like the pawfect companion for your family come to the SPCA today !!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🌼🐾 Meet Daisy — Sunshine in Fur Form, Ready to Bloom in a Home 🐾🌼 Daisy is a 1-year-old, ~40-pound sweetheart who has spent her entire puppyhood waiting for something most dogs never have to wait for — a family to call her own. Born into an unwanted litter, Daisy and her siblings grew up without the comfort of couches, bedtime snuggles, or humans who made them feel chosen. But despite it all, Daisy’s heart stayed soft, hopeful, and full of love. Daisy is gentle, affectionate, and wonderfully friendly, with a playful side that comes out once she feels safe. She does great with other dogs and kids, and has a calm, loving presence that makes you want to sit down beside her and stay awhile. She’s the kind of dog who leans in close, quietly soaking up affection like she’s making up for lost time. Her mom is a heeler/border collie mix around 40 lbs, and dad? Well… dad was apparently a traveling salespup, charming his way through town and leaving us with a mystery — possibly shepherd, possibly heartthrob, definitely good looks. Whatever the mix, Daisy inherited the best parts: brains, athleticism, and a deep desire to be close to her people. Daisy would love an active but loving home — one that enjoys walks, playtime, and adventures, but also understands the magic of slowing down and just being together. She’s ready to learn, eager to please, and so excited to finally experience what it means to be part of a family. 🐕 Daisy’s Darling Details: ✅ 1 year old, ~40 lbs ✅ Sweet, gentle, and affectionate ✅ Great with dogs and kids ✅ Playful with a calm, loving heart ✅ Smart and ready to learn ✅ Has waited patiently for her chance at a home Daisy is ready to bloom into the best version of herself — all she needs is someone willing to give her the love she’s been missing. ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org and help Daisy finally plant her paws where she belongs: right in your heart and home. 🌼🐾
