Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Olivia’s adoption donation is $500 and she is being fostered in Central Ohio.  She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention.  She has also had a dental cleaning. Olivia requires a home with a companion dog of similar size/energy and a secure, physically fenced yard. Olivia is a mill mom who is just the sweetest girl. She is a little shy but once she warms up to you, she will be your best friend! She loves her person but also loves to be alone and sleep on her foster mom’s bed. She is LOVES treats and will eat all her foster sisters  treats if she could. She likes toys and loves to bring them to bed with her. She will need a patient home as she is working on mastering the art of potty training. She is still shy of the “outside world’ so leash walking is a little scary. Olivia definitely needs to have a fur-sibling of similar size and energy to learn all the dog things from. She is such a sweet girl and just wants to be loved!

Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix.  We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here:  http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog.  We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved.  It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable.  If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence.  Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.  The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms.  The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information.  If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed.  Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.  No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.   At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.  We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.  November 19, 2024, 7:49 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Chancey's adoption donation is $350 and he is being fostered in Mansfield, Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and on prevention, as well as flea prevention. He has also had a dental cleaning with some extractions but has recovered well. Chancey came into rescue through no fault of his own when his owner was no longer able to care for him. He’s a mature boy that loves food (including fruits & vegetables), riding in the car, his person, porch sitting and cuddling. Chancey does fairly well on housetraining in his foster home and should continue to do so if kept on a schedule. He prefers to sleep in your bed, but will sleep elsewhere. Chancey vocalizes when he wants something as well as when he doesn't like something. Due to the volume of Chancey’s sass, he is not a candidate for apartment living. He loves attention from people and he would love a quiet home with no children under the age of 10-12. He currently lives with another low energy dog but has very little interaction. Chancey would do well as an only dog. He is on medications for arthritis pain. It is difficult for Chancey to climb stairs due to the arthritis.  A ranch style home would be ideal for him.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE:   If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.  If you go to the  individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Rockwell’s AKA Rocky adoption donation is $475 and he is being fostered in Central Ohio.  He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention.  He has also had a dental cleaning.  Rocky came into rescue through no fault of his own when the mill he was in was done with him. Rocky is a super mellow guy who has hip dysplasia and is currently on prescription joint supplement. BUT he is doing well on these! He is a gentle laid back guy who likes to "hand wrestle" and play with other dogs of similar size. Some of  Rocky's favorite activities are eating (I mean what dog doesn't!) slow meandering walks and being with his person. Rocky loves to be with his people, so the some one that is retired, semi-retired or works from home would be the best fit. He is a super sweet guy who cant wait to find his forever home!

She has been spayed, microchipped, received her rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza and Bordetella vaccines, tested negative for heartworms and started on prevention, as well as flea prevention. She has also had a dental cleaning. Rory requires a secure, physically fenced yard as she continues her progress. Rory came into rescue from a puppy mill that was shutting down and she was very pregnant when she came into rescue. Rory gave birth to the Gilmore Girls litter 8 days later. She has quite successfully raised those pups and now is HER time! Rory loves to hang out with her foster family. She loves to play with toys and is working on her house training, but does best when kept on a schedule. Rory enjoys car rides and anything where she's hanging with her peeps. The perfect home for her would be someone that either works from home, is retired or semi-retired and enjoys spending lots of time with their pup. She does get along with other dogs and cats but another dog is not required for Rory. Rory does best with kids 10 and above.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.PLEASE NOTE:   If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances.  If you go to the  individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog.
