25 Adoptable Cincinnati Pets That Are Looking For Their New Families (1)

Hershey

Age: 5 Years Old / Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix / Sex: Male / Rescue: Louie’s Legacy
”Hershey is a handsome 5 year old chocolate Lab mix! Weighing in around 60 pounds, he is on a weight loss journey to get down to healthy weight which should be around 55 pounds. Hershey loves the other dogs in his foster home, both bigger and smaller than him. He will run and zoom with the dogs, then be ready to curl up by your feet for a nap. He has a medium energy level, enjoying going for walks at the park, but also ready for a lazy day at home. Hershey is also quick to make friends with the cats in his foster home. Hershey is both crate and potty trained, but likely would do well outside of a crate when his foster family is away from the home.Hershey lacks confidence and is hesitant of new people - he does best with slow introductions and would prefer a forever home with limited visitors, or a family willing to crate him when company is over. Once adjusted to his people, he's a very loving and loyal boy! Due to his nervousness of new people, he would do best in a home with older children who understand how to respect his space as he acclimates. Hershey takes more time to warm up to men than women, so any men in his life should be prepared to take the time to build up trust with him as he gets to know them.Hershey's adoption fee is $250.”

Alexis

Age: 3 Months Old / Breed: Beagle / Terrier / Sex: Female / Rescue: Louie’s Legacy
”Alexis is the smallest of the Schitt's Creek gals, but don't let her 6 pounds fool you. This 3 month old beagle/terrier female is vocal and feisty. She can be found bossing her siblings around most days, waiting for belly rubs from her foster mom. Alexis loves squeaky toys, being held like a baby, and is the social butterfly of the crew. She can be a bit of a diva, but that is what makes her so lovable. She follows her big foster sibling dog around and has no fear when it comes to playing with him. Alexis is working on her use of puppy pads and due to her small nature, tends to need to use the bathroom a bit more often. Alexis will be a great addition for any home who is looking for a spunky gal with a lot of love to give. Alexis' adoption fee is $400.”

Rebel

Age: 1 Year Old / Breed: Australian Shepherd Jack Russell Terrier Mix / Sex: Female / Rescue: Louie’s Legacy
”Hello - my name is Rebel!! My foster mom tells everyone that I am a puppy trapped in a 35 pound body, but really, I'm a year old and already as big as I'm going to get! I think she thinks I'm still a puppy because I don't have very many "manners." I don't know what that means, but all I know is that I'm excited about EVERYTHING! People, dogs, cats, you name it - I'll try to make them my friend! Sometimes my foster mom thinks I'm "a bit much" for some, so I would probably do best in a home without small children as I still need to learn to not jump on people and to stop my puppy nips. I am very smart and willing to learn, I just need someone with the time and the energy to help me learn to use my brains for good! If you're looking for a runny buddy, or a high energy friend to call your own, look no further - I'm your girl! Apply today! My adoption fee is $250”

Hester

Age: 1 Year Old / Breed: Mini Australian Shepherd / Sex: Female / Rescue: SAAP
”Meet Hester a sweet mini Aussie at a little under twenty pounds. Hester came to SAAP with her three other sisters. Hester seems to be the most outgoing of the sisters however she is a little shy and nervous at first. Hester immediately explored her foster home then took a nap on foster moms lap. Hester will need a patient adopter to work with her shyness. A confident dog friend would be great, so far she has meet a medium and large size pup. Since we consider Hester a bit of a flight risk due to her shy behaviors she would need a physical fence with a tie out to start and someone would need to be outside with her. Hester is super sweet and glad to be a SAAP pup now.”

Izzy

Age: 2 Years Old / Breed: Hound Labrador Retriever Mix / Sex: Female / Rescue: SAAP
”Izzy is a 2 year old lab/hound mix and is a sweet as can be. She loves to be around her people whether that means laying next to you on the couch or following you around the yard. She's pretty good on a leash when walking but can smell a chipmunk or squirrel and her hound instincts kick in and she Pulls and tries to find it so she'll need a little leash training. When I've had her outside she is pretty good at staying by me and did fine on a long leash in the yard so I don't think a physical fence is necessary. She is doing great crate training and is housebroken (we only had one pee accident right after her spay). She would be fine to roam free and doesn't need to be in a crate. She is learning how to play with toys and likes her tennis ball the most so far!”

Kent

Age: 12 Years Old / Breed: Chihuahua / Sex: Male / Rescue: SAAP

He is now his foster mom's shadow and he's even starting to play a little. Kent is a little guy weighing just 12 pounds. This sweet boy is very ready to start his new life with his forever family. He needs a patient adopter who will give him the time he needs to feel safe. If you have a big heart for rescue and you want to give this boy a second chance then he would love to meet you.”
