Story
Kane is a very shy and sweet boy. He will need an adopter that is familiar with the breed and knows how to help him gain confidence. He is not a candidate for an adopter that hasn't had dogs in the past or any adopters with small children. He is crate and house trained for the most part. He does get nervous when you leave and sometimes has accidents in his crate. He is dog selective and would do best in a home with no other dogs. Kane is very smart and rings a bell on the door when he has to go outside to potty! He loves to nap on your lap and would make a great work from home buddy. He was abused when he was a little puppy and has an unusual bark. He's been through a lot and needs an adopter that will be patient while he adjusts to his new home.   Kane is up to date on all age appropriate vaccines, neutered , microchipped, dewormed and on flea/heartworm prevention.    Kane’s adoption fee is $200.     The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an application. Interested applicants can apply at:    https://www.scarohio.org/adoption-application October 14, 2024, 12:24 am

Story
Cubby is curious, cuddly, and cute. This young, strapping pup has been described as a great mix of active but chill. He enjoys his play time, and will happily romp and leap after toys in the yard. Or he`ll merrily join you for a meandering adventure walk, leading with his nose. But he`s also nicely attentive to his person. He listens well and you can tell he has a bright mind that`s just waiting for the chance to shine outside the kennel. Cubby also prefers to take plenty of breaks for pets and cuddles. He`ll lean right in to encourage you - or he might hop invitingly up on the bench (or couch) and wait for you to join him. Cubby loves other dogs and seems like he`ll be good with cats too! Cubby is estimated to be around 2 and a half years old and weighs 52 lbs. Visit www.tinyurl.com/meetacitydog to set up a meet! Or email his foster david.ager@gmail.com !
