Story
Dog's Name: Samuel L Jackson Gender: Male Current Age: Around 12-18 months Current Age Range: Young Adult (6 months to 1 year) Current Weight: 28lbs Expected Adult Size: Medium (25-50 lbs) Breed: Beagle Energy Level: Medium- High Dog Friendliness: Yes, and requires another dog in the home. Requires a slow introduction but definitely needs another dog, especially if he will be left alone. Cat Friendliness: Unknown Kid Friendliness: Yes any age Apartment Friendly: No Physical Fence: Physical fence required, any height Crate Trained: No and cannot be in crate Potty Trained: Yes Ideal Home / Adopter: Sam would do best in a home with another dog and people that are home a lot. He has a lot of happy energy and loves to explore all the smells in the yard. For a beagle he is relatively quiet but will sometimes howl when he is chasing an interesting smell. Sam has injured himself escaping from a crate so crates aren't for him. Likes: Sam would do best in a home with another dog and people that are home a lot. He has a lot of happy energy and loves to explore all the smells in the yard. For a beagle he is relatively quiet but will sometimes howl when he is chasing an interesting smell. Sam has injured himself escaping from a crate so crates aren't for him. Dislikes:Sam has been fine when left alone for 3-4 hours with another dog in the house but would probably not do well if left without another dog. He is generally not a chewer but if left alone for too long he gets bored and can get himself in trouble. He has an aversion to the crate and is not crateable but will gladly snuggly you in bed. Sam is a bit of an escape artist so caution when opening doors and fences is a must. He has not shown any interest in jumping our fence but he does have some impressive jumping skills. Sam is a fun dog and loves people and dogs. He may need a slow introduction to other dogs but once he meets them, he loves them. Sam gets along great with the resident dogs and will happily lay on them and wiggle into their space. If you're looking for a silly dog with a lot of spunk and personality, same is your guy! Samual's adoption fee is $350. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative. If you are interested in adopting, apply at rescuedohio.org to become an approved adopter and a meet & greet can be set up once approved. ##2163595##

Dog's Name: BellaGender: FemaleCurrent Age: 10 yearsCurrent Weight: 44 lbsExpected Adult Size: Medium (25 - 50 lbs)Breed: Black and tan beagleEnergy Level: Low - MediumDog Friendly: Yes, and can have other dogs in the home or can be an only dog. Cat Friendly: UnknownKids: Yes, any ageApartment Friendly: MaybeFence Requirements: Physical fence preferred but not required with regular walks/exerciseCrate Trained: NAPotty Trained: Not fully potty trained, working on it Ideal Home / Adopter: Bella is looking for someone who truly cherishes spending quality time with their dog. She thrives on companionship and will be your loyal shadow. If you adore the quirky, lovable traits of a classic hound, Bella will steal your heart – she’s the epitome of a true hound dog! She’s still working on learning commands, so she needs an owner ready to invest time in her training. Likes: Bella is a sweetheart with a big appetite for love and attention! She adores being petted, gets excited to meet other dogs, and is naturally good-natured. Walks are one of her favorite activities, and she’ll gladly join you on any adventure. Oh, and food? She’s a certified foodie who never says no to a tasty treat! Dislikes: Bella isn’t a fan of sharing her meals with other dogs and will let them know it. Bella’s good-natured personality makes her a joy to be around, but she needs a dedicated, patient owner to help her reach her full potential. Her previous owner wasn’t able to provide training, so she’s starting fresh and eager to learn. Bella’s cheery personality is unmatched, and she has a unique way of making you feel loved. When you come home, she greets you with her signature celebratory howl – a heartwarming “welcome home” you’ll never forget! All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative.

Ruger Gender: Male Current Age: 1 year old Current Age Range: Young Adult (6 months to 1 year) Current Weight: 31 lbs Expected Adult Size: Medium (25-50 lbs) Breed: Beagle-Hound Mix Energy Level: High Dog Friendly: Yes, and would love to have other dogs in the home. Cat Friendly: Unknown Kids: Yes, but best with kids 12 years old or older Fence Requirements: Physical fence preferred but not required with regular walks/exercise Crate Trained: Can do crates at night but prefers to cuddle in bed instead. Would prefer not to be in a crate during the day as he loves to be around his people! Potty Trained: Yes Ideal Home / Adopter- Did someone say PLAY?! Ruger is ready to play whenever and with whoever! He is not dog selective and would thrive in a home with another high-energy doggie sibling. Ruger is food-motivated and a quick learner, so having a sibling around to help him learn the ropes would be ideal. He would do great in a home with a fenced-in yard where he can run his little heart out. Although he's full of energy, he's also full of love! Give Ruger a comfy bed, cozy blanket, and some cuddles, and he'll be snuggling with you all day. He’s the perfect companion for someone who works from home—happy to lay by your feet while you work and ready to play when you’re off the clock! Likes: Out of everything in the world, Ruger loves his humans the most! He loves being around people and interacting with them, whether it's through long walks, playing tug-a-war, tossing a ball around or lazing on the couch/bed cuddling all day and getting belly rugs, as long as he's with his humans, he's in! Ruger also loves being around other friendly, active dogs - he's ready to wrestle all day with any dog who wants to take him on and run with him. With such a little body, it's also amazing how much food Ruger can eat and put away! This hungry pup is highly food motivated, making him easy to train with any treats and is happy to spend the day licking away at a Kong if it's filled with the good stuff (peanut butter, fruit, literally anything). Dislikes: Ruger appreciates his time with his humans so he doesn't like being in the crate or being alone very much, when he knows his humans are out and about doing fun things without him. Ruger takes medicine which helps him build up the courage to be alone. At night however, Ruger is more than happy to sleep in the crate, as long he knows his humans are in bed next to him (though he prefer if he got to cuddle in bed with you instead)! Do you need a personal bodyguard? A playmate? A snuggle buddy? Then look no further—Ruger is your guy! Within that little body is a whole lot of heart. Ruger just wants to be with you all day, every day, making sure you’re feeling your best. He’s always ready to cheer you up with a toy, a cuddle, or even sharing a snack. He gets along well with other dogs and adores humans (though he’s still learning not to jump in excitement). With his sweet manners, dashing good looks, and love for everyone he meets, Ruger is sure to steal hearts wherever he goes! Ruger's adoption fee is $350. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative.

Meet Dale and Brennan The Ultimate Dynamic Duo!Weve seen a lot of bonded pairs, but Dale and Brennan take the cake (and probably your snacks, too). These two 1.5-year-old beagle brothers were found as strays, taken to a shelter, and never claimedprobably because they completely flunked 'Beagle 101.' No rabbit hunting for these twojust wrestling, snuggling, and being the goofiest best friends youve ever met.They were adopted but are now being returned. Why? Because as much as they liked their new family, they love each other more. Their bond is unbreakable, and they need a home where their brotherly love is celebrated, not challenged. Dale and Brennan need a foster or forever homeASAP! These boys are: Kid friendly Dog friendly Cat friendly Basically, just ridiculously friendly!They love to wrestle, snuggle, eat, repeatand they promise to keep you laughing every single day. If youve got room in your home and heart for these lovable goofballs, theyll pay you back in endless entertainment and unconditional love. They are being returned this weekend, so theres no time to waste! Apply to foster or adopt at ricopetrecovery.org.Two beagles are better than oneespecially when theyre Dale and Brennan!

Daisy is approximately 2-3 yrs old. Shes a beagle mix and is about 25 lbs.Daisy adores people of all ages and will charm anyone she meets. Daisy loves her people so much that she can get jealous when other dogs take her persons attention away from her. With a little training, time, and reassurance, we think this behavior will pass. She has tested well with other dogs in her foster home and with new dogs at the dog park!Daisy cannot wait to give you her whole heart! Daisy loves being outdoors and would love a fenced yard or a human who loves going for walks. Daisy had a rough life prior to coming into Rico care. She was found pregnant as a stray. Daisy can be crated but prefers to be by your side. She is house-trained and has not been destructive when left uncrated. She walks nicely on her leash and wants to say hello to every person and pet she meets. Daisy would love to shower you with unconditional love and kisses! She loves going for car rides and cannot wait to start her next adventure with you!You can apply to meet her at ricopetrecovery.org.

Meet Mama Jewel Jewel's puppies are now 8 weeks and Jewel would like to move on to her new home so she can recooperate from her mommy duties. She would do best with a fenced yard because she pulls on a leash (she just needs some training and probably a harness). She's a snuggler, sweet and knows some commands, sit, come, off and leave it. She loves to play with other dogs. She'll chase a ball or toy and play keep-away with the other dogs. Her zoomies are great with all the dogs running with/after her. Jewel does not have any destructive behaviors and does not need to be crated. She is the perfect size 30-35 lbs. She's very puppy like so we think she's not older than 2-3. Her puppies are pictured here also. If you would be interested in Mama Jewel or her puppies you can apply at ricopetrecovery.org. Puppies are all males, and 2 are deafbut youd never know it!

Adopting a Harrier

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Harrier - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Harrier at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Harrier is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Harriers from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,500.

The easiest way to adopt a Harrier would be through a rescue that specializes in Harriers. A great place to start is by starting a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Harriers in your area.

Harrier fun facts

Fun Facts:

The Harrier derives its name from the French word "harier," or "hunting dogs."

The Harrier nearly became extinct in the 20th century but was revived thanks to crossing the breed with Foxhounds.

Harriers were brought to America in colonial times, and it is believed they were the founding breed of the American hounds.
