Winslow – a 5 ½ year old neutered male, about 16 pounds, shots up to date, housebroken. Winslow is quite friendly and affectionate, unfortunately he’s been diagnosed with PRA – progressive retinal atrophy. This is an hereditary aliment which causes total blindness for which there is no cure or treatment; thankfully there is no pain either. Blind dogs can function quite well by relying on their senses of smell and hearing. It helps if there is another dog in the family that they can tag around after – and Winslow loves other dogs. His family feels that they must give him up as they have very young children. He is living in foster care in the Cleveland area.

Guenther is a very handsome, trim,  little man, who should go to a home with someone who would like to have a little buddy to play with.  Guenther loves to play fetch and will play as long as someone will throw the ball for him.

He is good both with people or animals.  Guenther is housebroken.  Whoever adopts Guienther will find that their life has been enriched more than you can even imagine, He is current on all of his medIcal care

Oscar – 7 year old neutered male in excellent health with up-to-date shots. Oscar doesn’t not get along with his family’s 3 year old twins and needs a home with no small children. He is very loving and affectionate, knows several commands, sit, down, roll over, etc. He is housebroken, would probably do best with a fenced yard but is not a runner. He weighs about 13 pounds. He gets along fine with other doxies but might need some time to adjust to a larger dog in the household. He is living in Lebanon, Ohio.

Doug is a sweet, sensitive, and inquisitive dog that  is always willing to go off on an adventure with you.  He likes other dogs, of all sizes and is tolerant of cats.  He loves kids and adults.  He rides well in the car and likes to go shopping for pet goodies with his foster family.  He likes both men and women equally and will cuddle with you on the couch.  He has nice leash manners and is eager to please.  He has had a dental with some teeth extractions, but is doing well.  Doug was also neutered.  We all know that it is better for dogs, like humans, to have some of the teeth removed, rather than to have an unhealthy mouth.

Doug was picked up by the dog warden, as a stray.  He was unfortunately not claimed by his owner, so he was to be euthanised.   We couldn’t let that happen.  He is such a great dog, that he deserves, to find a new forever home this time

Oscar – 3 year old intact male, housebroken, shots up to date. Current owner’s children have developed an allergy so Oscar needs a new home. Oscar is quite anxious and nervous around strangers (and hates being bathed) so his new owners will need plenty of patience and kindness. Oscar is located south of Columbus and will have to be neutered before placement.

Baxter – 6 year old long haired male, will be neutered soon, very affectionate but does not get along with other dogs or small children. He likes to go for walks and loves to be petted. Baxter is in foster care in Lancaster, Ohio

Bailey – He is about 5 years old. He is completely housebroken and gets along with all the foster’s other dogs. When he arrived in foster care he was a little timid and nervous at first but has made himself at home and loves to be cuddled. He loves to go for walks too.
He is up-to-date on his shots and will be neutered soon. Bailey is in foster care in Lancaster Ohio.

Odie is a darling little, 10 month old pup. HIs owner is very sad, as she must relocate her pup, due to repeat kneee surgury which was done yesterday. She will hopefully, be home the end of the week and is terrified of fallng or tripping orver tiny Odie. He is a friendly little boy, who loves to ride in the car. He sleeps in bed with his owner. If he is taken outside, he is housebroken. We will be having him neutered and caught up on medical care.

Zoar is a very handsome, 22 pound, Irish spotted piebald dachshund, who is 2 years old.  He gets a long with cats. and other little dogs. He has always slept with his owner.  Zoar’s owners had another little dachshund and a chihuahua; but unfortunately the lady owner  developed Alzheimer’s disease and her husband has his hand’s full,caring for her.  A young friend volunteered to take Zoar home, although he was not equipped for a a dog. Zoar was accustomed to going outside, as he is perfectly housebroken.  The only way that Zoar can go outside thenew owner thought was tied to a line, or going for walks and frequently this is not convenient.  He states that she can wait an entire day, if left alone without pottying in the house; but that just isn’t fair..The little children where Zoar is staying are not good with the dog and want to play with him constantly, rather than letting him have any time for just being a lapdog.  We would like for Zoar to go to an adult home, where children will not “pester” him continuously.  He is 2 years old.  If you think your home can accommodate a “love bug” Zoar could be your new best buddy.

Ty is a very nice, approximately 3 year old mini dachsie. He is a bit of a chub, but he is going to try and slim down a bit (that was our New Year’s resolution for him…not necessarily his resolution, because he just learned that he can not clean up the little bites, he finds in the other dog’s dishes anymore)

He has a wonderful personality and will be so happy to find his own family. He gets along well and plays with other dogs Ty is a cuddler and loves to be with you.

His housetraining is coming along well and he will do fine, if there is someone around to guide him, for awhile.
have Ty is current on all medical care

Emme (top picture) is a dapple, 15 pound dachshund whose owner died recently.  She and her buddy ManMan lived together happily in a home who spoiled them.  Unfortunately there is not anyone  in the family or a friend to take them in. They are presently staying with a family member who fosters infants and will not be able to keep them.  Emme does better around older children, however ManMan is very good around everyone.  If possible it would be fantastic if they can stay together.  They are located  in an Ohio city close to PA and W. VA, if a caring home might be found in either of those states.

ManMan is a dark, red dachshund whose owner died recently.  ManMan and his little friend Emme had a great life living together with an elderly owner, but she recently passed away.  There does not seem to be anyone to spoil them now, that she has passed away. ManMan has an exceptionally good temperament and LOVES everybody.  Hopefully,  ManMan and his companion Emma will be able to go to a new home together. They are still with a family member, in an Ohio city, that is also convenient for possible adopters to live in PA or W.VA

The foster family states that they Emme and ManMan are spayed/neutered. housebroken, and spoiled.
