Story
Please read Milo's bio before submitting an application - thank you. Meet Milo!! Milo has been in a wonderful foster home, as he waited for his scheduled neutered. His foster worked very hard on housetraining and crate training ;-) Our fosters are PRICELESS, and they know the rescue dog best, so we honor their suggestions for a perfect forever home. Volunteers become attached to their foster pups and want to make sure the puppy will have what really makes them happy when moving to a new forever home. Milo needs a fenced in yard (not electric), a dog playmate, and someone that has time for a puppy and does not work long hours where he would be crated all day. Milo is the sweetest pup and loves all people, kids and dogs he meets. He really is a very special little dog! He has a BFF at his foster home, and they snuggle and play all day! Milo loves to run in the yard to burn off his puppy energy. He listens well and is learning the game of fetch. Milo was just neutered 4/29/25, so now he is ready. Milo is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows his basic commands. He is a sweet, silly and very goofy pup: -) Milo will require grooming every 6-8 weeks and he did very well for his professional grooming at Polished Paws Salon. You can see his photo with a fresh groom, but his hair grows FAST, and he will be due soon for a grooming! Milo will make a fantastic addition to the right family. We are looking for local adoption, due to our home visit requirement and trial adoption process. Adoption within a 40-mile radius of Avon Lake. Milo is 6 months old, 12.5 lbs. We had Milo completely vaccinated, including his boosters and neutered at ALAC. If you are interested in Milo and can offer him the above description of his dream home, please submit an online application so we can learn a little about you to make sure Milo would be a good match for you and your family. We do not do out of state adoptions, due to our trial adoption process. Adoption fee/donation is $400.00. Milo will be visiting Avon Hollywood Feed, 35901 Detroit Rd, Avon from 11am to 2pm. If you have specific questions, please email the adoption coordinator at info@loveastraydog.com If you want to help support our mission, you can mail your donation to: Love-A-Stray, P.O. Box 125, Avon Lake, OH 44012 or visit www.loveastraydog.com for credit card/PayPal information, adoption application, available dogs and upcoming events. Thank you!

Story
Hi there my name's Alfie, at least it is now. The nice people at the rescue named me that. I didn't have one before. I was a real wreck when I arrived. I was coated in feces, urine and vomit. I'm surprised they even picked me up and helped me out but here I am! I went to the vets and got checked out. He said I'm good to go. I got shots and some yucky medicine but they said I needed that to stay healthy. I got taken to a foster home after that and got a much needed bath! Boy do I feel waaaayyyy better now! I'm looking pretty cute now and I'm starting to get comfortable. Boy this place is sure a lot nicer than that cold dirty kennel I've been in. I really like this couch thing I found and that's really been my main focus other than running and playing with the other dogs. I think I'd prefer a home with other dogs but it's okay if I'm the only one. If you're interested in me please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
How cute is little Butterscotch the Shih Tzu puppy. He was very scared when he arrived. We don't think he's been handled a whole lot so he's learning how to trust and live in his foster home. As you can see from his pictures he's discovered that he loves to lounge around on the couch with his foster moms big dog Romeo. He has received a health check and he's ready to go with age appropriate vaccines and worming. He would do best in most homes but would prefer a home with another dog as they are his safe space and can teach him how to trust people and be a real pet. If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
Butch the Shih Tzu puppy is looking to find his happily ever after! He was surrendered due to retained testicles. He is very scared but sweet and already starting to adjust in his foster home. His foster mom is working daily to get him comfortable and make him feel safe. We know that he wasn't handled much before he got here, that was clear upon intake at the vets office. He would do well in most homes as he's small and doesn't require a ton of exercise but we do suggest a home with another dog as they're his comfort and safe space. If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Buster the Shih Tzu puppy needs to find his forever home. He was very scared when he came in. His foster mom is working to get him comfortable and he's making progress already. He would do well in most homes but would do best with another dog so he has a buddy to make him feel safe and help him adjust and learn what to do and how to dog. He's in a home with other dogs and cats. If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!

Story
This sweety pie is Binky. He's a Shih Tzu puppy. Now poor little Binky here is very scared at the moment. We can tell he hasn't been handled much and because of this he doesn't know what to think about us. His foster mom is working to get him feeling comfortable and safe. He's coming around already! He was surrendered due to having retained testicles. He would most likely do best in a home with another dog so he has someone to make him feel safe and show him the ropes of being a pet. He just needs love and patience to be your bestest friend! If you're interested in him please email rescuepups411@gmail.com and if you haven't received a response within 24 hours please text 330-219-4514 thank you!
