Update on Rocky

Rocky’s doing Great!!!!. We go for walks and he has even dropped a few pounds. When he gets a new toy he really gets excited. He has made himself at home here. He gets to run around outside and enjoy the fresh air. He has been blessing to us. Thanks

Paxton’s (AKA Echo) Story

My name is Tim and my wife’s name is Kara. We stumbled upon the puppy photos by chance, and I had to go look. Once I saw Echo sitting there wagging his tail with almost a half smile on his face, we knew we had to take him home. Echo now has a new name – Paxton. It’s been a very eventful week 1 since he has arrived home. We go on lots of walks, play lots of fetch, and went to a half marathon to watch our family run. We even completed week 1 at puppy school and know how to sit, and look to make eye contact. He is the sweetest pup who loves to play, and when he’s tired, he lets you know by snuggling up. We are so happy to have picked Paxton and already can’t imagine our lives without him!

Rambo (AKA Mitchell)

**Mitchell now Rambo is doing great. He’s now about 38 pounds and loves playing with his big sister Lucy.**

Fern’s (AKA Jelly Bean) Story

Hi jelly bean (now named fern) is doing amazing! She has a 4 year old kitty sister that she adores and 2 human baby girls to play with. Ferns favorite thing to do is cuddle up with her human sisters and get pets and kisses. She’s the best cat and took no time at all to adjust to our home, it’s like she was meant to be with us and she was finally home! Thank you ARF for our sweet kitten fern !

Nico’s (AKA Pierce) Story

Nico (Pierce) and I are doing great. It’s like having an 80lb toddler with pixie sticks in one hand and Mt. Dew in the other. That boy is always happy and just wants to run and jump. He loved the snow so much, I was bummed to see it go. He figured out how to sled down hills on his back, because.. of course he did. We have tennis ball time time, but he’s his favorite is time exploring the woods behind the house, leading to the banks of Licking River. He loves the water so he’s snuck a few times and jumped into the river. You can tell when he does (besides the ‘kerplunk’) because he has this disgusting line of demarcation on his face or neck that smells like poop. Usually it’s the river, occasionally it’s something’s poop that he’s rolled in. I’m working on finding a large, safe body of water for him. He hasn’t passed any temperament tests to go to daycare (I’d describe it as fear-based dog aggression), but we’ve interviewed a few trainers for socialization and will hopefully be able to start pretty soon.

He’s very, very smart but not really food motivated, so it takes some creativity to get him in the head space for learning. Once you get him there there, he’s eager to please. He got all the basic commands within 2 weeks and was able to move on to fun stuff like shake and roll-over. We do a lot of non-verbal commands, puzzle games, and have just started scent work. I plan to set up an agility course for him my granny’s backyard where we go just about every Saturday. He NEEDS the stimulation. This weekend I’m introducing him to a new bike leash and harness because I simply can’t go fast enough for him. When I’m not home, he prefers to stay on the balcony watching the neighbors, chillin in his cot, or throwing his kong around.

We’re playing a long distance road trip to camp on a friend’s land so he’ll have a great trip running around in the woods for days at a time. Here are some pictures, way too many. There’s a few showing when he gets dirty, but also what happens if he’s bored with easy access to smelly things, and when he being goofy and playing with toys. He’s a good boy.

Paco’s Story

This is Paco, formerly Fairbanks. I have been looking to adopt a kitty for over a year now. I just adopted Paco a week ago and he saved me just as much as I saved him. He was jumpy at first but we found out he had a lose tooth that needed to be pulled. The day he got his tooth pulled the vet ended up finding out my poor 1yr 7mo old baby was abused. One of his legs is shorter than the other 3 due to the abuse. Now that his tooth is gone he is the most loving sweetheart ever, still a bit jumpy, but not as bad as the beginning. Paco will never experience any hate, betrayal, or abuse ever again and I think he is starting to realize that and it fills my heart with Joy. He is SO spoiled and receives lovings non stop! Welcome to your forever home my sweet baby.

Lucky’s Story

Sweetie now known as Lucky has saved me as much as she was saved. Since we met on our first walk I knew she needed me. She loved the ride home and as soon as she walked in she knew this was her roost to rule! I was ready to take on the task of house training Lucky, but to my surprise it was not necessary. Lucky will walk to the door and just give me a look saying Dad it’s time. Lucky wants to say hello to everyone she meets and give them kisses. I can’t wait till it warms up and we begin to travel. Lucky will be able to go hiking and camping and run on the beach and swim in ocean this summer and living the life she deserves.

Zoey’s Story

I don’t know how I got so lucky, but Zoey is a perfect dog! Since the day she came home, in Oct 2020, she’s been a completely housebroken and very affectionate snugglebug. She’s calm, cheerful, rarely barks, and settled in immediately. It’s as if she already knew all the household routines. She’s really a joy to have around. Thank you, ARF, for rescuing her. She really is quite perfect

Layla’s Story

I took this beautiful little girl home on 2-20-21. She’s so cute, loving and playful. She’s already my little stinker, princess and grumbler.
My first dog Daisy got sick and died in 2017 at eight years old. She was a Border Collie Lab Mix. It’s bitter sweet bringing this bundle of joy home. I’m telling her, “Where going to PetSmart.” And later on she’ll know what that means.
I hope to post more pictures and updates on Layla as time goes on. She’ll be getting aquatinted with her new veterinarian this week. Ryan

Roxie Goes Home!

We are so happy to have Roxie home with us. She’s been resting a lot (sleeping on the dog bed) and exploring her new space. She loves running in the backyard! So far she’s been a loving little snuggle bug and we’re so happy she’s with us.
I’ll be happy to send more pictures as she continues to settle in!
Happy New Year! Christine & Mike

RESCUES WORKING TOGETHER IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT!

It’s Amazing What Rescues Working Together Can Accomplish! Jumper’s Story…

This couple found the love of their lives and the Jumper found the life she had been dreaming of!

This couple contacted 14 rescues, filled out lengthy applications on line and did not hear back from any of them except Angels Rest Animal Society. That rescue did not have what they were looking for, but Natalie, from Angels Rest, offered to help them anyway. Natalie contacted ARF and let the couple know about Jumper. They came out to meet Jumper today (7/10/20) and she was just what they were looking for. They fell in love with her and Jumper couldn’t have been happier too!

Zoey’s Story

Zoey found her forever home a couple of weeks ago. She is so funny. Such a great personality. I can’t even imagine why anyone would have wanted to abandon her. Some humans just don’t deserve pets, but thank goodness for places like ARF to save these animals!
Thanks for all you guys do!

This is the funniest thing you will see all day!

Sonny’s Story

We adopted Sonny a few weeks ago and he was a very scared and shy puppy. With the help of our other 10 month old puppy, Max, he is coming around more and more each day and has the cutest and sweetest little personality. We love him SO much!

Daisy Goes Home!

**Daisy gets a new home and new brother Cooper!**

Daisy Update…

Daisy, is fitting in very well! She’s as spoiled as can be! She refuses to use her dog bed and likes the couch very much instead. She’s very happy here in her new home! Thank you for caring for her the last 3 years. Your generosity and selfless actions allowed her to eventually find her furever home!!

Daisy, is very much loved. I’ve slept on the couch to help her transition here. She gets walks every 2 hours. Her brother loves her and they get along amazingly! She’s gotten 2 new fancy collars and a name tag! She is definitely without a doubt being treated the way she deserves!

Mickey Goes Home!

***This wonderful family took Mickey home today! What a lucky family and what a lucky dog…let the fun begin!***

Mickey Update

He has become a dog!! He runs and plays and his tail never quits! We love our gentle boy he loves his bed and his favorite part of the day is breakfast!
Walks are also one of his favorites. He has come to love car rides and runs to the car anytime we mention the word! We are so grateful for Mickey!

Cinnamon Goes Home!

Cinnamon Update

Today makes it 30 days since I adopted Cinnamon… the pics were taken during our daily walk. I know it takes time for a dog to adjust and get used to a new home/routine… she did good on the ride home and during a visit at the vet… she hasn’t had an accident in the house or her crate… her favorite toys are a tennis ball and a rope with knots in it… she usually takes one of them with her when we go outside and brings it back inside when we come in. I know it has only been a month… in my opinion she is doing great.

Finn’s Story

I wanted to send a quick update on our sweet Finn (Gambler as you know him). We got him December 23, 2019 from you and have loved every minute with him. Today he turned one! Thought you might like to see just how big he’s gotten.

Remus’s Story

Remus lives and works at the Cincinnati Zoo. She lives with Kris the zoo’s baby cheetah. What a great job for an ARF rescue! Just click on the picture to see a short video about Remus and Kris. Remus was adopted as a companion dog for Kris when she was a young cub in August. The dog has kept Kris company and has taught the cheetah social lessons through play and engagement.

The pair will be featured in the first show of a new show on Disney+ called “It’s a Dog’s Life” streaming on May 15th.

13 Year Old BB Goes Home after being at ARF for 251 Days

BB (Now Bella) Update

Hey everyone at ARF, We are just loving having BB( now Bella)! She is such a cuddle bug, and we love that about her! She is definitely enjoying lazy days sunbathing by the pool. Our other fur babies have taken kindly to Bella! Our cats took a bit longer but as you can see, they’ve bonded a bit. We love her spunky attitude when we get home or after she comes inside and wants treats. She’s bouncing around and behaving like a younger pup, it’s adorable! So glad we found her! She is a perfect match for our home!

Luna’s Story

It was July 4th when we went to look at the dogs at Animal rescue Fund. My daughter spotted the one puppy that was ready to go to a new home. We adopted her and she has been one of the best thing that has happened to us. Luna is doing wonderful and getting spoiled. She goes to dog park and loves to say Hi to everyone.

Griffin

Rusty’s Story

We adpoted Rusty from ARF in Ameila, OH April of 2010!!! He is the LOVE of our lives. He shares him home with Dixie, a Heinz 57, Carmall, Boxer/Pit Mix and 2 cats! THANK you for adopting him out to us…

We had zero history on him…not even an accurate age. He had been in two shelters that we know of. He still has some issues with shyness, but he is love…pure and total. I had a doberman for 13 years and he passed away after 3 years of diabetes and blindness…our other dog, Dixie lost interest in everything, even eating. I searched petfinder.com and went thru many, many bios…found him, hubby and I (and Dixie) went to see him and they did well together…Sometimes when I’m missing Thorn the dobie…all I have to do is look into Rusty’s face and say…it’s all good…

Snoopy’s Story

Good morning from the Perrys! I just wanted to update you on Snoopy (adopted May 2nd). He is so spoiled and we adore him! He loves cuddles and likes to streeeeeeetch out, even if it means kicking you out of your own bed. We are so happy he is a part of our family!

Rickert & Riley’s Story

Hello, my name is Ryan Sutter and my family and I went to the
Amelia rescue shelter in January to adopt a dog and when we found the
one we wanted (Dakota) now named Rickert we picked him up and the dog in
the next area over looked over and they two dogs saw each other and
they started whining and it only took a couple seconds to realize they
was from the same litter and where brothers. So long story short we
ended up leaving there with two dogs that day, Montana now (Riley) &
Rickert…

They made the 40 minute drive home with out getting car sick and they
pretty much have had the run of house ever since. Our cat was rather
uncertain of them at first but they get along fine now providing we feed
all three at the same time..lol..

The dogs sleep in a bed with either my wife and I or with of my
daughters every night sometimes they switch in the middle of night of
course and they both hate alarm clocks. There favorite treat is a toss
up between steak bones and ribs… I think they are getting spoiled
because the Gravy train bacon treats use to excite them and now they
leave it on the floor and look at us like you expect me to eat that?

They think they own the couch and heaven forbid you ask or try to make
them move so you can sit down.. all you hear is that moan of being
inconvenienced and a yawn as they take there time moving. So its safe to
say they have a forever home. We still have some house training to do as
far using the restroom but its coming slowly but surely.

Ryan,Angie,Taylor,& Savannah Sutter….

Millie’s Story

I wanted to let you know about our new best friend. On March 4th, we adopted Selma who had been staying at the Milford Petsmart. What a wonderful decision that was! We are in love with her and her dainty ways, and believe she loves living with us, too. We gave her a new name, Millie, which we believe not only suits her, but is one she likes, too. I have attached a few photos of her in our house. I hope you will enjoy seeing how happy she is.

Bacon & Maggie’s Story

We adopted both of our dogs from ARF, and they have become such special blessings to us. Maggie is our shepherd mix that we adopted 4 years ago. She is a sweet, happy protector who loves her people (but she’s definitely a daddy’s girl). Bacon is our beagle mix that we adopted just over a year ago. He’s a big cuddler (mommy’s boy) and has a great nose for mischief and bones.
We are so grateful for our two pups that have brought so much joy to our lives! We love ARF and the work that they do. They will always be our go-to to adopt and add more dogs to our home in the future. Thank you, ARF!

Autumn’s Story

In December of 2019, our family decided to take a trip out to ARF where we then adopted a puppy. Not expecting the addition of a puppy to our family, we were a little skeptical of bringing her home, but upon our first interaction we knew we had to have her. Autumn, formerly Lollipup, was shy when we first brought her home, but that is not the case anymore! At 6 months old, Autumn has all the energy you could expect from a puppy. She chases the cats around the house, attacks bed sheets, and loves to try and shred tissues. She also LOVES to meet new people and go on long walks at the park. She is still a little intimidated by the bigger dogs, but that doesn’t stop her! Autumn is truly a great decision for our family and has added so much love and joy to our lives. We can’t thank ARF enough for taking care of her, we wouldn’t trade her for the world! Janette, Kyra, Weston, and Autumn.

Maverick’s Story

We adopted Maverick (AKA Lance) from ARF 3 months ago. We surprised our 7 year old with him at the bus stop that day and that will probably forever be the best surprise I’ll ever give. He was so happy he was crying tears of joy.We lost our 16 year old beagle, Henry in 2018 and he has been asking for a puppy ever since. Henry left behind his 10 year old brother, Murphy. Murphy was mopey and lazy ever since so we knew he needed some motivation to move.Maverick is sweet, cuddling, playful, and keeps Murphy moving which was our goal. He’s a handful like any other puppy but we are working on that! Thanks to ARF for making the process easy and giving us the opportunity to give this pup his forever home. The process at other shelters/rescues is extreme and we applied at a couple different places only to find out the puppies were already adopted by the time they looked at our app…we were getting discouraged until we found Maverick at ARF.Thanks again and you don’t have to worry about Mav getting the love and attention he deserves because he is definitely already a spoiled little guy!

Diesel and Eva’s Stories

We have 4 dogs, these are the only two from ARF. Eva was known as Lanie, we got her a year ago. She is the brat of the family in a dog family of older dogs. They all baby her, groom her, and let her get away with everything. We got Diesel about 7 years ago to be a friend to our other dog, a Westie named Lucy who was our baby we got from ARF years earlier. They became besties. Lucy died two years ago during a dental procedure. Diesel is still having a hard time with it. He has pancreatitis, epilepsy, and dry eye but remains a trooper through it all. He’s a mommy’s boy. We wouldn’t trade them for the world.

Finnegan’s Story

My husband and I adopted Finnegan a little over two years ago from ARF. He was the only black pup in his litter. We wanted to add to our family because our dog Mya was really lonely and needed a playmate. She enjoyed her new little brother. Now he is twice her size but just as loving. He is the biggest cuddle monster who loves socks and will drool until you share your snack. Finn has added so much joy and love to our lives over the past two years. Thank you ARF.

Molly’s Story

In 2009, my son, Aaron, was celebrating his 15^th birthday. His gift was a trip to ARF to adopt a puppy. After a lot of thought and decision making, Aaron decided upon this little black lab cutie that he named “Molly”. Ten years later, the boy is now a man and the puppy is now a senior dog – but the love has not dimmed. Adoption means forever, not just for a while! Molly and Aaron look forward to more years as family!

Jenny

This is my buddy Jenny. Jenny was 2 years old when I rescued her. She was a feral puppy in Felicity for the first 6 months of her life until ARF was able to rescue her from under a shed. She then spent 1 and a half years at the ARF shelter cowering in the back of her shelter afraid of everyone. It only took one night at my house to figure out that sleeping on the bed with her head on my pillow was a pretty great place to be! She is the most athletic dog I’ve ever had and loves to chase her frisbee. It took a lot of time and patience for her to come out of her shell and to get her to trust me but she slowly came around and is a wonderful loving dog. Thanks to ARF for rescuing her and being patient with her. Jenny & Kathy

Max

We adopted Max Saturday. We could not have asked for a better dog. He has brought nothing but joy to me, my wife and two kids. I still cannot believe we were able to adopt such a wonderful dog. He is settling in to his new home. He loves to play tug-o-war and chase the ball. We can’t thank ARF for making our family complete.
Thanks again!! Mark, Andrea, Ian, Amanda and Max

Flash

We rescued Flash from ARF in December of 2018. He was known as Yancy. Flash is truly the best dog! He is fun and loving and playful. He knows no stranger! His favorite toys are socks and ropes. He loves his sloth blanket so much that he sleeps with it every night. Flash has brought nothing but joy into our lives. He makes us laugh every day and nothing beats coming home from work to a dog loving on you! We truly don’t know what we would do without Flash! Here he is the day we adopted him versus today where we included him in our engagement pictures!

Thank you ARF!!!

Allison, Corbin, and Flash

GusGus & Roscoe

Our family has rescued 2 dogs from ARF, GusGus and Roscoe. They are living their best lives with their other rescued fur siblings, Dixie, Lucy, and Chewy. GussGuss is the Shihtzu and Roscoe is the Yorkie mix. They are the sweetest puppies.

Rascal

I adopted Rascal in the fall of 2018 after he was at ARF for 7 months. He would sit by his run door and wag his tail and look up at everyone that walked by trying to get their attention but no one got him out to look at him. I was in and out of the shelter several times throughout the summer and kept noticing how nice he was. At the end of the summer I took him home. His name fits his personality. He passed his Level 1 Obedience Class at Queen City Dog Training Club (I think we may have been socially promoted). Not long after that, he passed the TDI test to become a registered therapy dog. He now visits Locust Corner Elementary School where the kindergartners read to him once a week to improve their reading skills. He also visits nursing homes and has visited several relatives in local hospitals. He is a great dog! Thank you ARF for taking such good care of him while he was with you. Kathy & Rascal

Jellybean

I adopted Jellybean from ARF in 2016. I was looking for a new buddy to add to my pack. She fit right in and became a real snuggler right off the bat. She passed her TDI Therapy Registration last year and gets very excited about her visits to a local nursing home where she makes the ladies smile. She is so gentle when she interacts with the residents. Here she is with her sporting her rain gear during one visit. The ladies at the facility love her and look forward to her visits. We belong to a local dog training club and she loves to go play with her sister and friends chasing frisbees and balls. She went from a stray in Adams County to a wonderful friend and therapy dog via ARF! Thank you ARF.

Pat & Jellybean
