Dogs for Adoption in Waterville, OH: 16 Dogs Looking for a Home

Meet Champ!

Looking for a happy, affectionate, textbook beagle? Meet Champ! At just 1.5 years old, this sweet boy is an absolute love bug with zero behavioral issues. He has never met a stranger and immediately treats everyone like his lifelong best friend.

Why You’ll Fall in Love With Him:
• The Ultimate Snuggler: He loves his people deeply and prefers cuddling up with his humans at night over his crate. He is the ultimate TV-watching buddy and will happily sit right next to you on the couch!

• Kid & Dog Friendly: He is good with children and completely loves playing with his rescue beagle foster siblings

MEET SQUID!

This handsome boy is ready to find his forever family! ❤️

Squid is estimated to be around 6 months old and is already weighing in at 42 pounds. He’s a mixed-breed sweetheart with lots of love to give!

Here’s a little about Squid:

Lives with dogs and cats in his foster home

❤️ Loves being with his people

Crate trained

Very food motivated (which makes training fun!)

Loves spending time outside

Working on his leash skills

Loves to play but also settles down nicely

Squid is already neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and on preventative. He’s ready to find his family!

Meet Mabel!
Mabel is a 5-month-old sweetheart with the perfect mix of puppy energy and cuddle bug charm. If you're looking for a best friend who believes personal space is optional, Mabel is your girl! She loves to snuggle, be close to her people, and soak up all the love she can get.
Like any puppy, Mabel is full of playful energy and absolutely loves her toys. She's food motivated, which makes training fun, and she's already crate trained. She's also making great progress with potty training and just needs a family committed to helping her continue learning.
Mabel would thrive in a home with another playful dog who can match her energy and help build her confidence.

Meet Winston

A 1.5 year old sweet agent of chaos who needs some work but is worth the effort! We believe him to be half coonhound and half lab.

Winston is…
High Energy
Crate & Potty Trained
Kid Friendly
Dog friendly (AFTER a slow intro)

His biggest areas of opportunity are impulse control, learning to embrace moments of calm even when exciting things are happening, and greeting other dogs, especially while on leash.

While he lives with a cat now he does want to chase him. He doesn’t seem to want to hurt him but is still working on “leave it” so he’d do best in home with no cats at this time.

Meet Mack

Mack is a 2-year-old Bluetick Coonhound looking for his forever home. Despite not having the most stable start to life and being bounced around between a couple of homes, Mack hasn’t let it dim his spirit. He’s a sweet, affectionate boy just waiting for the right person to give him the love and stability he deserves.

Mack is great with other dogs and is currently living with 3 other coonhounds in his foster home. He does need a home without children, and he would do best with someone who understands hounds and is willing to give him patience, consistency, and time to settle in.

Meet Dottie!
Dottie may have had a rough start to life, but you’d never know it by meeting her! This sweet girl came to us from DACC with her five puppies, and despite what her past may have looked like, she’s full of love, personality, and fun. ❤️
Her torn-up ear may tell a little story about her past, but Dottie isn’t dwelling on it. She’s too busy enjoying life and making friends! She’s social, fun-loving, and gets along with kids, dogs, and cats. Basically, Dottie is ready to be everyone’s best friend!
Dottie is also working hard toward clearing her heartworm treatment, and she can’t wait for the day when she can put that chapter behind her and focus on her happily-ever-after.
Now all this girl needs is a family to call her own — one that will show her just how wonderful life can be when you’re truly loved.

Courtesy Post for LuckyMeet Lucky, an male blue brindle boy estimated to be between 2 to 5 years old. Lucky has a sturdy, muscular build, a distinct brindle coat, striking amber eyes, and an expressive, handsome face.
​Neighbors reported seeing a car driving around 10 mph out of the condo suburbs strike a dog matching his description, but thankfully, he doesn't seem to have sustained any serious injuries. He is currently eating, drinking, and moving around comfortably in our backyard setup. Lucky has a naturally calm demeanor, loves cuddles and kisses, and is a genuinely sweet companion. He knows how to sit, responds positively to car rides, and enjoys walks, though he does pull on the leash since he hasn't had much leash training.
​He is friendly, non-aggressive, and submissive.

Meet Roman! ❤️
Roman | 3 years old | 115 lbs | Cane Corso
Meet Roman, a big handsome boy with an even bigger heart! ❤️ Born in December 2022, Roman is a 115-pound Cane Corso who absolutely LOVES his people.
Roman is definitely an attached-at-the-hip kind of dog. If his people are around, he wants to be right there with them. He loves being included and is happiest when he can hang out with his favorite humans.
He knows his sit and shake, and he is an absolute rockstar in the car.
Roman can be a little shy when meeting new people and needs some time to warm up. Give him about 30 minutes, though, and you may find this giant boy trying to climb right into your lap! ❤️ Once he knows you, he is incredibly affectionate and loves being close.
He is still working on a few things, too.

Meet Pippa – Your Tiny Best Friend!
At just 5 lbs, Pippa is a tiny nugget with a big personality! This sweet little girl was surrendered from a less than ideal situation, but she's quickly learning that love, safety, and cozy naps are what life is all about.
Pippa has settled into a routine like a champ and is discovering that being part of a family is pretty wonderful. While she's still building confidence, she's an independent, playful little lady who loves doing things at her own pace.
She gets along beautifully with other dogs and has been wonderful with children. Pippa is crate trained and absolutely loves her crate—it's her safe, happy place where she can relax and recharge.
She's making great progress with potty training and learning good manners every day.
