Story
Want a fun and little loving guy? Hi, I’m Norbert! I absolutely love getting attention from everyone and my tail will wag a mile a minute when I see people. I am skilled in my leash walking, potty training, and sitting abilities. I love to sleep in comfy and soft beds. I will gobble up any treats offered to me! I don’t mind being picked up and held. I really would like a home where I can snuggle up with my human and be cuddled. Come see me at the ARC today!

Story
Meet Winifred! This sweet but shy gal is an 8.5-year-old, 20lb Shih Tzu who is looking for a forever home where she can relax and come out of her shell! She is a low energy girl, preferring to spend her days relaxing nearby and taking in the world around her. Winifred was rescued from a puppy mill so she is slowly starting to learn that she is safe. She is unsure of people at first but doesn't seem to have a mean bone in her body despite her past. If you hold her and pet her she will slowly wag her tail. She is fostered with other dogs and does well with them. She is happy to rest in her crate and is still working on potty training. Winifred doesn't really know what dog toys and a dog bed are, but she would love to learn! Her favorite thing to do is spend time outside soaking up the sun or to take a nap in the grass. Winifred would love a kind, patient home that will give her a safe place to rest and be loved. If this could be you, then apply for Winifred today! Winifred is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $300.00.

Story
Meet Rita! Rita is a 7-year-old, 10-pound Shih Tzu who is looking for a special home that can help her learn about love and trust. As a former puppy mill mama, Rita has had a difficult past and is understandably very shy around people. She prefers the comfort of her dog friends, so a home with another calm, confident dog would be wonderful for her. Rita isn't quite ready for outdoor walks just yet, but with time, patience, and gentle encouragement, she'll start to blossom in her own way. She needs a quiet, understanding family who can give her the space to come out of her shell at her own pace. She will require a fenced yard. If you have the patience and a big heart to offer, Rita will be forever grateful for a chance to experience a safe and loving home. Rita is being fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.
