***SPONSORED ADOPTION***

Hey there I'm Bubba aka Bubba Dewey.

Bubba is a three year old mixed breed with lots of love to give. While he enjoys the company of dogs he would also be perfectly content to be your one and only and monopolize all of your attention. Bubba currently cohabitates with a cat who he has shown little to no interest in. We are recommending an adult only home for Bubs. He thinks all of the toys are his, will destroy all but the strongest of them and isn't all that keen on sharing..

Agility anyone? Bubba just might be your guy. He is quite the athlete; fast, nimble and fearless. We recently discovered that, if motivated, he can climb a six foot chain link fence. His Motivation? To play with dogs in adjacent runs of course. If he can do that how hard can ramps, tunnels and weave poles be? Don't worry he is not Houdini. He cannot scale a privacy fence.

Bubba is a dog for all seasons. On a warm day he will bask in the sun and be the last dog in. On a snowy day he will romp and roll and again be the last dog in. Once the other dogs have abandoned him for the comforts of the house he will entertain himself with toys until his mean foster Mom makes him come in from the elements. Once inside you will discover that at heart he is really just a couch potato. His most favorite spot is on the couch next to his human, head in lap.

He is housebroken and will gladly go to his crate if a treat is involved. Admittedly a little less willing without the treat, but he does sleep in his crate at night and there isn't a peep out of him.

Bubba knows some basic commands including sit pretty (beg) which is really quite adorable. He is very food motivated so teaching him more commands and tricks should be pretty easy. That combined with his compact frame (yes he's seventy pounds but he looks like he's fifty) make him a natural for whatever training you would like to do!

Clove is the sweetest soul. This girl LOVES to go hiking, play fetch, dig in the garden and any other fun activity you can imagine! Her personality is full of joy, sweetness and fun with a little bit of sass (which only makes her better in our opinion!) Her loving foster family can't say enough about what a joy she is to have in their lives. Here's a few facts about our girl Clove. Other dogs - Clove is currently living with another dog in her foster home and we think that having a doggo friend would make adjusting to a new setting go even smoother for this gal! Likes - Hiking, running around in the backyard & Park adventures! Since Clove is an active girl, she would prefer a backyard so she'd have space to run, play and get those wiggles out. Clove is housetrained and is doing really well at letting her foster mom know when she needs to go outside to potty. If you think you might be a match for our sweet girl, Clove. Fill out an application today to begin the process!

Name: Gabriel
Breed: American Bulldog & Boxer Mix
Age: Just over 1 year old (Born June 2023)
Weight: 66 lbs
Location: Humane Society of Madison County, West Jefferson, OH

About Me:
Hey there! I’m Gabriel, and as angelic as my name suggests, I’m all sweet and a lotta handsome! ? I made my way to this shelter with my three siblings after our previous owner couldn’t care for us anymore. They did the most selfless act by ensuring we would be safe, well-cared for, and loved until we find our forever homes.

I’m the energetic one out of the bunch, always ready for an adventure! Leash walking is new to me, but I’m making great progress thanks to the wonderful volunteers here. I love going on several walks a day and showing off my affectionate side by giving hugs (though I’m still learning not to stand on my hind legs).

I adore my off-leash time in the fenced dog run, and my favorite game is tug with any toy – I’m not picky! I would thrive with an active person or family who can give me daily enrichment, both physical and mental. Snuffle mats and puzzle toys are my jam when I’m chilling indoors.

I’m doing a great job keeping my kennel clean, which tells everyone I might have some housetraining experience. I do have the occasional overnight accident, but that’s just because I’m holding it longer than I would in a home.

I’ve met a few other shelter dogs and get along great with those similar in size to me. I’m going to be a wonderful companion for whoever is lucky enough to add me to their family.

Swipe right if you’re ready for a lifetime of love, fun, and adventure with me!

This incredibly handsome and sweet boy is Bailey!

Bailey is a Blue Merle Australian Cattle Dog and Terrier mix, currently weighing around 56lbs

Bailey is the definition of a cuddle bug! If you have a lap or body he can lean against and just give him all the love and pets, he will be your best bud. He is a typical dog and loves to go outside for walks and playtime too! Bailey does great walking on leash from what our Staff and Volunteers say.

Bailey bonds hard with his person and would prefer to be the only doggo in the home. He also has a high prey drive meaning he might try and chase cats and would do best in a feline free home. Bailey absolutely loves to play frisbee and fetch! so if you're looking for a dog to be active with, Bailey is your boy.

Bailey also keeps his kennel tidy, even overnight. He's housetrained and given time to adjust to your routine, he'll do wonderfully.

If you would like to come and meet this sweet and gentle boy, please fill out an application today!

Meet Sherman

Looking for a teddy bear to cuddle on the couch with? Sherman is your boy! This big squishy love bug came to us recently and everyone has fallen in love.

Here’s a few facts about our lovable boy, Sherman.

Age - 3 years

Size - Large (77lbs)

Likes - Long walks, Cuddles, Belly rubs, Butt scritches.

Forest was adopted in June into the most amazing family and he has had a great summer! We miss him and are so happy for him at the same time!

WE HAVE A MCGRIFF UPDATE! Just a little 1yr update on McGriff..... I think he's still happy here. Oh my gosh and his personality....he's still learning new things...took forever to convince him it was okay to go down the basement stairs. Now he wont stop. Too bad I cant teach him to load the washer.....or can I???...Trying different foods has been fun. I think he thinks we're trying to poison him. Dude! Its peanut butter! I swear! Dad has taught him to smile when he gets belly rubs. Try to get pictures, but he seems to know and instantly hams it up. We have nightly races to see who gets to lay on mom's side of the bed. You can guess who loses every time, lol! #hsmcohio
