Small Dogs for Adoption in Lorain, OH: 14 Little Dogs Looking for a Home

I have a playful side that comes out as I grow more comfortable.

I'm a sweet boy who just needs a little time to trust and feel at home.

I'm looking for a family who understands that love doesn't always happen overnight. I may need a little extra patience in the beginning, but if you're willing to let me go at my own pace, the bond we build will be something truly special.

Could you be the person who gives me the time, love, and safe home I need to blossom? My forever family is out there, and I can't wait to find you!

Please consider adopting Tripp and showing him that the best things in life are worth waiting for!

Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The microchip is transferred to the adopter once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a one-time $15 microchip enrollment fee. Microchips are enrolled with AKC Reunite. Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.

Gracie was very loved for a long time, but sadly, her person had to move into assisted living and Gracie couldn't make that journey with her. That's how she ended up with us, and if her terrier attitude is anything to go by, she has plenty of life left to live!

The basics:

Perfectly housebroken
Loves her walks, vehicles included
Has creaky knees, so a home without stairs would suit her best
Would rather be the only pet. She may tolerate others...or not. She's selective.
Will protest vet and grooming visits

Gracie is doing great for her age - some mild vision and hearing impairment, as expected. She would do best in a single-level home with someone who likes short daily walks, keeps a firm grip on the leash, and doesn't mind that she runs the place.

in bed and doesn't make a peep all night long. She loves playing with toys, and will play fetch with a ball too. Dinner time is her favorite part of the day, and a nice nap on the couch is something she enjoys as well. She is almost potty trained, but still has pee accidents in the house if I'm not paying attention.. She is slowly warming up to being crated, but will still bark and get quite upset for the most part. I do sit near the crate with yummy treats, and when she quiets down, she gets a treat, which really works. ( I'll keep working on this....)

Please remember that adopting a smaller dog can be a 10-20 year commitment!! If you are interested in adopting Shivers, please go to pawsandprayers.org and fill out our non-obligatory application. Her adoption fee is $400, and includes spay, up to date vaccines, dewormer and flea/tick prevention, (she is heartworm negative), a microchip, and endless love from Shivers!

Peanut is still working on potty training and crate training. He wears his belly wrap comfortably, but he’s still learning to do his business outside. He can get a little jealous when sharing attention and will benefit from patient guidance as he continues learning.

He can get jealous when he is getting attention and another dog comes up for pets also. He can get growly. He has never acted further, but being an only dog in the home will solve that. He’s lacked attention and affection so long, and now he wants it all since he’s finally got it.

Looking for a walking buddy who also loves a good snuggle? Peanut might be your perfect autumn companion!

Adoption is $350 which includes his neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.

Jelly needs a patient foster or adopter prepared for significant house-training challenges and anxiety with crating and separation. He needs more than a quick puppy refresher: a consistent routine, gentle guidance, and someone willing to help him work through these challenges. He wears a belly wrap comfortably, but he is not house-trained.

He’s also practicing leash walking and learning what’s appropriate to chew. Keep a chew toy nearby—sometimes this little guy needs help locating the approved merchandise! He has mastered the stairs, so there’s one accomplishment checked off his list. ✔️

Jelly has plenty of love to give. He needs someone who will celebrate his progress, support him through the hard parts, and help him feel secure.

To say he’s made a remarkable recovery is an understatement! He gained weight steadily and before long, you could no longer see his ribs. His hair is coming back in so what once was bare skin is now covered with beautiful black fur.

Now Bobby is ready for new and much better adventures! He’s ready to chase balls and snuggle and soak up all the neck rubs he can get. He’s ready to patrol the years and keep it free from pesky critters. He’s ready to go for car rides and play with all the toys, and get as many treats as he can. He is ready to live his best life and will do so with gusto!

Bobby LOVES other dogs! He would love, love, love to have another canine pal (or more) to romp with. But be warned, he can already be high energy and very playful. If he teams up with another rascally pooch, it could mean crazy, over-the-top playtime!

Bobby is a crate-trained, and sleeps in a crate at night (in view of his foster mom’s bed) and is content in his crate while she is away.

What breed is Bobby? He very much looks like a Patterdale Terrier (rough/broken coat) in every way - size, body shape, ears, and even the unusual length of his tail. What’s more, he ACTS like that terrier breed 100%. But, that is not a breed that’s known to be found in this area, so with that in mind, it’s just a guess and frankly, we

have no idea what he is. In his picture from before he was shaved, he looked like a poodle, but his hair was so matted it was hard to say. His hair, so far, isn’t coming in curly but it’s too early to see that for sure. Maybe some schnauzer? For sure a lot of terrier in there, too, as that absolutely fits his personality.

If you are interested in adopting our miracle boy Bobby, go ahead and fill out our online application and we will see if you are a good match!

There is a kitty here and a rabbit and a horse and a donkey. No problem with them and I would be fine with another dog as long as they mind their own beeswax!
I will be shy at first and it will take me a few days to warm up to you. Soon you will see a little tail wag from me and then we will be friends.
