Rose Bud aka Bella, came to GRRR as a stray from a shelter. She
has adjusted well in her foster home. Bella is a golden mix and is
very little, 30lbs. She is about 2-3 years of age. Bella likes to be
Queen of the home. She can be timid and shy at first with strangers, but
once she adjusts she is very sweet. She loves to cuddle and to be played
with. When she does not feel she has your attention you will get a paw
from her saying, "hello, I am here." |

Scout - He is a very handsome boy with a goofy smiley. He has a
fixation with food, will try to counter surf and get into food or trash
if it is left unattended. He has a great personality and can be quite
calm and also likes to play. He is definitely a lover boy, likes to be
cuddled and petted. His favorite toy so far is a stuffed animal. He
appears to be housebroken so far. No accidents except for possibly
trying to mark territory. I put him in a crate when I left the house for
8 hours, but left him out with my two other dogs and a few rooms closed
off for 4 hours. He gets along great with my other two dogs a female
rott mix and a male husky mix. Appears to have some leash training
although he tugs a bit. Also knows sit and we're working on down and
stay. Having been in boarding for 21 days before I got him, he is doing
wonderfully and will make a great pet for almost anyone.
Update from Scout's Foster Family:
Scout has settled into his foster home nicely. He has a GREAT
personality and is mellow most of the time. He is content to be right
where I am. Loves to be petted and loved. I can touch him all over,
look at his mouth, paws etc. and isn't bothered by it. He also loves to
be brushed. His favorite toy is a stuffed rabbit that he loves to toss
in the air and play tug with. He is improving on a leash and knows sit,
down, stay, and shake. He still loves food and I keep my counters clear
to be safe. He has learned to wait for his own food before receiving it
by telling him sit & stay. Since being here he has had a few accidents
on the floor, but has been doing great lately. He can hold it for at
least 8 hours safely. Beyond that time alone someone may want to crate
him although we haven't. He is living in a house with 2 adults and 2
dogs. He is fantastic with all of us. The only problem I've encountered
is that his is unsure of strangers in our home and acts defensive. He
has been improving, but we don't have visitors often. We watch him and
keep hold of him or crate him during their visit. Since we are unsure of
his past, we do not know what he's been through. I heard he looked like
a mess when he first came in. A new home where people are patient and
are willing to work with him would be great. He has been to 2 adoption
events so far. He is great with all people, including kids. He has been
temperamental with the other dogs, but is great with our 2 at home. He
is an absolute joy to have around!

Shena - This young golden mix is both beautiful and smart!.
She came to us a couple of months ago and promptly had a litter of 8
puppies. The puppies are weaned and Shena is ready for a new home.
She needs an experienced family and a 6 ft fence. Shena would make
a great agility dog as she learned the dog walk and the teeter in no
time at all. She does show some separation anxiety so a family
where someone is home a lot would also be great. Sweet and
affectionate - she is good with kids and other dogs. |

Jackson is a small dog. Loves a tummy

Hi. I'm Buster. I'm a Golden mix, around 1 year old. I'm a real
sweetheart from what my foster mom says. I don't get along real well
with other dogs though and I'd probably be better off without any cats.
I know a few commands, like Sit, Down, Come, Back and Wait. I live with
5 kids (age 6 - 15). I just love the kids. Actually, I love everybody.
I'm very submissive to people and only want to please you. I love to
cuddle, go for walks and play ball. I really love belly rubs! Despite my
long fur I really don't shed a whole lot and I don't get matted very
easily. I really want a family to call my own who want me to be their
only special boy. I will try to please you and give lots of love. If
you're the family that I've been desperately wanting and waiting so
long for please call my foster mom, Cori, at 419-264-0778. I would
really love to meet you and to have a long happy life with you. Please
give me a forever home.

Buddy - his original family didn't have time for this little
charmer and didn't know he needed thyroid medicine. He has way too many
pounds on him, and he is already responding to meds and will be a
happier boy in a family that will take care and love him He has kennel
cough now so can't come to the adoptathons for awhile. |

Laddie is an over 5 red dog with a big heart and a lot of energy.
He loves to ride in the car and walk in the park. He is a sweet boy who
needs a loving home and he will give you a lot of love in return. He is
looking for someone who wants a mature pet that doesn't have all the
demands of a younger, more active dog. Don't be put off by Old Gold - it
has a shine and luster all its own! |

Hannah is a very young golden who was rescued from a kill sheler.
She is
beautiful. The picture doesn't show her high quality look. Hannah is
very sweet, but since she is so young, she needs some puppy training.
Hannah needs love and attention as do all dogs. |

Reagan - He is a great looking dog and seems to like the
attention of my husband more than me. He is dominated by our oldest dog
and deserves to be in a home where he can be the star. He was with kids
at one time, but hasn't been around them for awhile, so would suggest
older children now. He would like to relax and be the love of your
family. |
 |
Fargo -Young, sweet, still acts like a puppy and needs some
training when you adopt him. Would recommend only older children, or no
children because he can get too playful. He is a lover boy and will
jump right into my lap. Do you want his unconditional love,
companionship, and great personality in your life. I think he's a
"10"as far as I see it. |
|
Sage - this mixed breed puppy came in with 3 of his litter mates
- they've all found a home but he's still looking for his. He's
about 7 months old - can he come to your house? |
 |
Katrina - My Mom and Dad surrendered me because I was too much to
handle-I am a big girl, young in age and I am very headstrong. My new
Mom and Dad really need to understand me and give me good, firm
direction. If you think you can help me with learning about life and
love me at the same time, please fill out an application and take me
home! |
 |
Sky - Look at this beautiful Sky! She is an over-5 spayed female
ready to bring lots of love to your home. Sky appears to have had some
professional training, as she recognizes several commands. While Sky
gets along well around kids, she prefers a home where there are no other
dogs. Sky would make a very mellow companion. Please call to find out
more about fostering or adopting Sky. |

Hi! I'm Maggie. I'm an over 5 female. I'm spayed, housebroken and
fully obedience trained. I'm also fully leash trained. Aren't I
beautiful! I'm a very sweet girl and love to be petted and loved on. I'm
a very laid back girl so I don't get along very well with those hyper
youngsters or those over dominant types. I get a little too excited over
cats. I would make the perfect companion for another calm and submissive
dog. I love people, especially those shorter versions called kids. I do
have some skin allergies, but they are clearing up really well without
meds. I'm waiting for that perfect family to love me and give me a home
that I can call my own. If you would like to hear more about me please
call my foster mom, Cori, at 419-608-5004 or put in an application on
our website. I probably won't be up for adoption long so if you're
interested please hurry. |

Lucas - this handsome guy just came in - we'll have more info for
you soon. |

MARTY
Marty is a big happy, goofy, playful, lovable, high energy, golden
retriever.
He is very handsome, with a black nose, dark eyes, honey colored coat.
Marty likes to chew on bones, if chew toys are not available he will
search out shoes, socks, etc…you get the idea, and eat them in minutes.
Chew toys need to be every where in the house.
If he take a valuable personal item, and a human or dog chase him, he
has won. He wants to be chased. Marty seeks out thing that will cause
human to chase him. No chase and the item is dropped.
Marty has not met another dog that wasn’t his best friend. He loves
every dog has ever met. He likes to play.
Marty has a deep, strong, serious bark that he uses any time someone
comes near his house. This is good protection.
Marty is very concerned about new people, they scare him, he meets and
greets strangers with fear and barks, this is his attempt to scare those
new people away. But, once Marty gets to know a person he is their best
buddy.
Marty is a fun dog. He likes to chase throw toys, go for walk, get
groomed, and receive any kind of attention.
He needs to have a home that will take him on daily walks, play with
him, hug him, pet him, talk to him, and train him. Marty wants to learn,
and he wants people to invest the time in him.
In a matter of days Marty learned to sit, down and respond to his new
name, Marty. He wants to learn, but that means a human has to invest the
time to do such training.
Marty has no idea how big and strong he is. He acts like a small dog.
Placing him with small children is not a good decision. He might hurt
the small child due to his size, strength, and enthusiasm, while lacking
awareness of his size and power.
He will not tolerate teasing. It is best for him to go to a home that
respects him and is consistent with behavior towards him.
Once Marty has accepted a human he wants to be hugged, cuddled and
loved, but such opportunities do not occur until they are earned.

Mason - here's another
really nice dog who's family no longer has time for him. They feel
badly about giving him up but feel it is the most fair thing to do.
His owners say:
He is great with children and
pretty good with other dogs. He does not like cats or squirrels. He is
housebroken with only a rare accident when left alone for too long. He
does have free reign of the house and is used to being on furniture.
He LOVES riding in the car.
He must be kept on a leash...he will run as soon as he figures out he's
not on a leash. He is easy to recover, though. All you have to do is
find him and open your car door. He will jump right in.
He does not chew
inappropriately but will snatch up ANY food within reach. He loves to
run. He would really love a place with a fenced in yard that he could
run in. He doesn't bark often and doesn't jump on people.
Like we said, he is not a
problem. That is not why we are giving him up. We are the problem, and
we do feel terrible that we cannot give him what he needs.
Won't you give Mason the home
and attention he needs? |

Hooch is an 8 - 9 month old Lab. He was dropped off to our rescue
because the people just had too many dogs and they knew we rescued
Golden Retrievers. They told us he is a golden/lab mix and where they
got him, but we're sure he's a full blooded lab. Hooch has had all of
his shots and is going to get neutered this week. Hooch has been around
other dogs and kids his whole life. He is currently being boarded in
Battle Creek, MI and
needs a foster or forever home ASAP!! |
 |
Wizard - He is approx. two years old. He was a stray picked up by
a kill shelter. He is high energy but has calmed down a lot and will sit
first before he is petted. He likes to take walks and is doing better on
a leash. He loves people and seems to get along with dogs. It is unknown
about cats. He is a beautiful dog. He would be good with someone who is
active and likes to take walks and would exercise him.

Courtesy Posting: Hi, my name is Copper. I'm part Husky and part Golden Retriever.
I am 1 1/2 years old. I have a lot of puppy energy and I need alot of
exercise, but I would rather be near my owner than be outside by myself.
I love other dogs, but I think of myself as the boss. I also really like
kids. I love lots of attention and need lots of love. All my
veterinarian check-ups are current and healthy. I am perfect for you! |
