Arfsten is a gentle soul. He's a 3-4 year old, 65 lb shepherd mix with maybe a little mix of golden retriever. He loves to steal a sock and carry it around and loves playing with his toys. At playtime, he gets a toy out of the toy box, squeaks it and throws it around, then goes back for the next one until every toy is in on the fun! When it's time for snuggles, he likes to rest his head against you. He's potty-trained and though he doesn't love the crate, he's fine being left alone. Overall, he's a pretty chill guy who would love to find his family. Arfie's adoption fee is $350. Apply now at www.rescuedohio.org.

Leroy is a sweet 4 year old yorkie/dachshund mix who is both dog and cat friendly! This good boy is eager to please, loves learning and having fun! He is full of life and enjoys long walks and adventures, and loves people!! When he's home, he's comfortable just lazing around, but also loves to play with his toys. His favorite games are fetch and tug! Leroy can be a little bit mouthy occasionally, so reminding him to be gentle is key. Leroy is great on car rides, but like many pets, can get anxious. He prefers keeping all 4 paws on the ground to feel secure, so isn't a big fan of being picked up. Leroy is house trained, but keep litter boxes and trash cans out of reach - otherwise Leroy gets curious. He also is crate trained and he knows his "place" (going to his cage if you point to it), and will follow commands to sit, stay, and lay down. He is a good boy!!

Chase is an adorable little Yorkie. At only 5 pounds he comes with a bit of attitude! About 6 years old, he was originally owned as a by a family with small children. For 2 years they pulled his tail/ears, dropped him and hit him. Thankfully the family surrendered him to Chase's groomer (she cut his hair from the early age of 6 weeks), and he was adopted by a single woman. But then her home situation changed, and she was unable to keep Chase. Because of his earlier abuse, on walks, Chase charged other dogs. The veterinarians labeled him with separation anxiety and put him on Prozac. Sadly his home life did not change and he was bored. Chase got his second chance when he was surrendered to NAPR! Now in his foster home he lives with other dogs and attends doggy daycare. His medication has been decreased (with veterinarian guidance), but he remains on a low dose. Chase is still reactive however, and snaps at people when they grab at him, but then he quickly accepts them. A gentle hand and approach is needed until he trusts you! But Chase so wants to love and trust, and he attaches himself quickly to people he is familiar with! Chase goes to the door when he wants outside and will require a fenced yard. He rides well in a car and loves cuddle time! This pup requires a special home. NO children and would do best as an only dog. Chase will not be a "move in perfect dog". He has been failed by humans and will need a patient owner willing to give him time and "rules" to follow. His foster mom will be happy to share information and to answer questions that you might have. Please think about giving this little boy a chance at a forever, loving home!
