Story
Duke is a good boy! And quite a stunner too! Duke has come a far way since he came into our care, but is still learning! Duke needs a bit of space and guidance to explore things around him productively! We would love to see Duke go to a GSD savvy home, without small children (due to his size). He likes other dogs, but is still working on learning his social skills! Duke is an active boy, but settles down well. He loves his walks and following other dogs around. In foster, Duke hasn't had any accidents in the house nor has he chewed anything. Duke also does well left alone at home uncrated. Fill out an application at www.maggiesmissionrescue.org

Story
Please contact Sheri (sswank1@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.  Buck is a 2 1/2 year old DNA tested pooch, and guess what!?! He is exactly 50% GSD and 50% Great Pyrenees. What a fun combo for a dog! He gets super excited when he sees me getting my tennis shoes on, or my ball cap because he knows it means we're going hiking. He's 100 pounds of lean handsomeness. LOL. He does well as a couch potato and is calm in the house on a normal quiet day. He is house trained, crate trained and does well with other non dominant dogs. He is the best with smaller dogs honestly. He loves toys and playing fetch with any ball, and if you don't have time to play, Buck plays by himself. I'm looking for a home without young children because Buck does have herding/guarding tendencies. Buck is looking for someone who loves the big boys, and can handle them. Bucks adoption fee is $200, and includes all up to date vaccines, neuter, microchip, flea and heartworm preventative, and endless love and appreciation from BUCK! Please fill out our non-obligatory application at pawsandprayers.org if you would like to adopt him!! Please email sswank1@gmail.com with any questions. This pet qualifies for the Pets for Patriots program  https://www.petsforpatriots.org/veterans/  March 7, 2026, 2:20 pm

Story
Hank is a big, lovable boy with an even bigger heart. He’s truly the sweetest dog, gentle, affectionate, and eager to be part of the family. Hank gets along wonderfully with other dogs, cats, and children, and he absolutely loves being around people. The only reason we are looking to rehome him is because of his size. He is a large dog who doesn’t always realize how big he is, and he can accidentally knock our little kids over during playtime or when he gets excited. Because of this, we think he would thrive best in a home with older children or adults who can better match his size and energy. Hank would make an amazing companion for someone looking for a loyal, friendly, and affectionate dog. He has so much love to give and deserves a home where he can truly shine. If you are looking for a big cuddle buddy with a wonderful temperament, Hank is your perfect match.

Story
MBR holds monthly adoption events on the 2nd Saturday of every month at Tractor Supply in Columbia Station, 24100 Royalton Road from 11 am - 2 pm. Questions can be emailed to rescue@mbrohio.com Scooter is a 3-year-old Beagle/Shepherd mix weighing 47 pounds who is looking for his forever family. This sweet boy came to the rescue very underweight, and thanks to lots of care and good meals, he’s slowly gaining weight and starting to come out of his shell. Scooter already knows how to sit and is eager to keep learning, especially if toys or treats are involved! He walks nicely on a leash and is working on his potty-training. He loves playing with toys, happily chewing on bones, and then winding down for some quality cuddle time. One of his favorite things is simply being part of the family—he wants to be included in whatever you’re doing, whether that’s playtime or a cozy night on the couch. Scooter gets along well with other dogs but has not met children yet. He is currently very curious about the cats in his foster home and is learning how to co-exist with them peacefully. Affectionate, loyal, and full of love, Scooter is a snuggler at heart who’s ready to find a forever home where he can continue to grow, feel safe, and be cherished. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will fill your home with love, Scooter might just be your perfect match. If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, the first thing to do is submit an application for approval. All dogs available for adoption are in foster homes. Please do not visit the rescue location as it is a privately run boarding, training, & grooming facility. Individual meet and greets are scheduled by appointment only for approved adopters.
