Story
Ripley is a spirited and energetic 3-year-old who’s ready to find her forever home! This active girl has a zest for life that’s unmatched—she loves to run and will happily destroy any toy that dares cross her path. Ripley is fantastic with other dogs and adores children, making her an excellent companion for a family with kids or other pups to play with. While Ripley isn’t a fan of cats and has a strong prey drive (squirrels beware!), she’s crate trained, housebroken, and knows basic commands like “sit.” Her determination and smarts make her highly trainable, especially since she’s very food- and treat-motivated. Before Ripley was rescued, she had a litter of puppies, and now it’s her turn to be the center of attention. She’s a people-lover through and through and will eagerly greet you—even if she sometimes forgets her manners and jumps up. With a little guidance, this eager-to-learn girl will quickly master whatever you teach her. Ripley is a perfect fit for an active home with lots of love and adventure to share. Are you ready for this bundle of joy to join your family? ##2223382##

Story
Shadow does doggie daycare at Camp Bow Wow Westlake and she has a blast! She is a sweet,loving young female Pit mix weighing 45 lbs. Shadow is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows her basic commands (sit, stay, down). Shadow knows some tricks like "rollover". She walks well on lead. Shadow loves to play ball and run in the yard. We do not know how shadow would do living with cats so a cat-less home is best or we can arrange for a cat test with your cat. She met one cat and just seemed curious, not aggressive with the cat. Shadow is spayed, vaccinated and micro-chipped. Shadow loves everyone she meets and she would make a great forever friend! Please consider Shadow! If you are interested in Shadow, please submit an online application so we can learn a little about you to make sure Shadow 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 $100.00 If you have specific questions, please email the adoption coordinator at info@loveastraydog.com If you can't foster or adopt, please consider donating to help us with medical expenses and ongoing care. You can mail your donation to: Love-A-Stray, P.O. Box 125, Attn: Shadow, Avon Lake, OH 44012 or visit www.loveastraydog.com for credit card/PayPal information, adoption application, available dogs and upcoming events. Thank you!

Meet Brooklyn!! Brooklyn is a 2 yr old Pit mix, weighing 56 lbs. Brooklyn was pulled from the overcrowded LCDK when they were full; she had been there too long. She was sent to Roger's K9 for their board and train program. Brooklyn is doing great learning all her commands and how to be comfortable in new situations. She does need to take things slow in new situations. Brooklyn is house-trained, crate-trained, and walks well on lead. She is very smart and athletic and would love an active owner that understands her breed requirements. Brooklyn has finished her training at Rogers K9 and is looking for a foster home while we search for her forever home. Brooklyn is dog friendly but we do not know about cats so a cat-less home is best.
