Story
Punky is a beautiful female Mastiff/Boxer mix who was surrendered by her family on July 15, 2024 (and unfortunately that is not a typographical error on the year 2024 since Punky has been in our shelter for nearly 1-1/2 years). Punky was 3-years old when she came to HSOV and is currently 4-years+ Punky has a brown short smooth coat with a large white bib on her chest, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable symmetrically-marked face with black shading around her brown soulful 'teddy bear' eyes, a black button nose, a chubby muzzle, and semi-erect ears. Her family told us that Punky had been in their home since she was a 6-week old puppy. Punky is good with her people friends (including children). She is selective about which dogs she included in her circle of friends. Punky is not good with feline friends. When she was in her home, Punky's exercise routine consisted of spending time in the fenced-in yard, but her favorite routine was being a lap dog (smile). When she was frightened, Punky would climb in bed with her people. Punky's favorite pastimes were cuddling on the couch and enjoying stuffed toys. Punky has become a favorite of many of our kennel tech/shelter staff as well as volunteers. Punky has also made some doggy friends at HSOV and especially loves to walk with Spice (a neutered male brindle/white Boxer/Pit Bull Terrier mix) when they each have a kennel tech/volunteer walking them side-by-side on leashes. Punky was spayed on September 29, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 68.2 lbs that day. These updated photos of Punky were taken on October 11, 2025 when HSOV Volunteer Jennie Payton Sherrard spent time with Punky in our outdoor photo area. Punky LOVES to spend time in the green grass, so she chose to 'sit pretty' or leisurely stretch out and simply look adorable in most of her new glamour pictures. Punk displayed her sweet disposition and loved attention (and 'good girl' treats) from her fan club members who were nearby. Punky was recently the first runner-up in an AI-generated Halloween Costume contest which featured several HSOV dogs. Punky was a cute Flower Child/Hippie and donned the costume well .. And she was treated to a special day away from the shelter to celebrate her second-place win in the contest thanks to HSOV Volunteers Alicia Byrd and Matt Carlisle. Punky dreams of winning the "I Found The Best Home Ever" Lottery .. And that someone special will complete/submit an HSOV Adoption (or Foster) Application with her name at the top (smile). Punky's adoption fee has been sponsored~ Punky went home with a foster family on October 30, 2025 who plans to adopt her if all goes well. Unfortunately Punky came back to our shelter on November 4th. Punky was good with the family's older children but was anxious around the infant/baby in her foster home .. And Punky displayed severe separation anxiety issues. So she is looking for a home without young children and with a family who could help her overcome her separation anxiety when left alone. And Punky was still working on her housetraining routine.

Story
Shetland is a beautiful 4-year old+ female Mastiff mix old+ who was brought to the HSOV on October 21, 2025 by a Good Samaritan who had found her along State Route 26 in Washington County Ohio. Shetland was not wearing a collar, and she was not microchipped. This lovely girl has a tan short smooth coat with a coarse texture, a long tail, and an adorable face with soulful brown eyes, subtle black/white shading on her large muzzle, and short floppy ears. Shetland weighs 79 lbs and epitomizes the oft-used phrase 'gentle giant' (smile). Shetland walks fairly well on a leash and was ready for an outing with HSOV Volunteer Carla Perry when these photos were taken on October 28, 2025. Shetland is an accomplished 'howler' with a melodious voice which was music to Carla's ears, so naturally she offered to take Shetland for a walk and also to give her extra TLC ... And the paparazzi tagged along when she saw an opportunity to take out-of-kennel pictures of Shetland. We noticed while Shetland was enjoying her adventure that she appears to be hearing- and perhaps vision-impaired. In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Shetland was held for the mandatory three-day stray hold so that her family would have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership. Since she was not reclaimed, Shetland is now available for foster or foster-to-adopt. She will be spayed before an adoption is finalized. Update: Shetland went home with a foster family on November 8th who offered her a temporary home while she awaits her forever home. If you would like to meet Shetland in person, please complete an HSOV foster/adoption application for approval so that we may arrange a meet-and-greet with Shetland. Be prepared to fall in love with this big sweetheart.

Story
Moose and Hazard are a pair of best friends who were brought to the HSOV on October 24, 2024 by the Washington County Ohio Dog Warden. Moose and Hazard had shared the same home and have been kept in safe-keeping custody since their arrival in our shelter. Both boys are now available for adoption since their owner surrendered Moose and Hazard to the dog warden/HSOV on September 3, 2025. Moose is a 9-year old male Bull Mastiff. He has a fawn-colored short smooth coat, a docked tail, and a gorgeous Mastiff face with dark brown eyes, a black mask, black shading on his broad muzzle, a black velvet nose, and short floppy ears. Moose weighed 92 lbs when he entered our shelter and was already neutered. Hazard is a 10-year old male Shepherd. He has a blond short smooth coat, a long tail, and a beautiful Shepherd face with dark brown eyes, a slender muzzle, a chocolate brown nose, and extra-large erect ears. Hazard weighed 77 lbs when he entered our shelter. His owner reported that Hazard is NOT good with cats~ Moose and Hazard have shared a large suite in our Safe-Keeping Building since their arrival where they have access to a private outdoor 'patio'. Moose and Hazard are being listed as a Bonded Pair since we feel that it it is their best interest to find another home together. These photos were taken on October 26, 2024 through the large window on the door of Moose and Hazard's 'bachelor pad' while HSOV Lead Kennel Emily Beaver spent time with them so that we would have photos for their kennel cards. Moose gave Emily several 'bear hugs' and reached out to her for extra TLC. We wanted to share these photos asap so that potential adopters would know that these senior guys are in our shelter and are looking for a fabulous home. Hazard underwent surgery on January 15th 2025 for the removal of a couple of masses on his lower back. He was also neutered and given rabies vaccine while under anesthesia We will plan on taking updated photos now that they boys are adoptable.
