Josie- SPONSORED - Female Boxer Mix

Hello My name is Josie. I m around 3 years old and I weigh about 60 lbs.I was found as a stray in Wellsville and I was picked up by the pound. I spent some time here at the pound then I was adopted. The family had kids and they totally loved me and I loved them. They also had a rabbit and a cat neither of which I had interest in becoming friends with. Needless to say the other pets were in the household first so I was returned to the pound. They said I was a wonderful girl the whole time the had me except the above mentioned issue. They said I was wonderful with the kids great in the house and that I am housebroken... they were really sad that they had to bring me back but they couldn t risk me injuring (or worse) the rabbit and cat. I am a wonderful girl here at the pound too. I am clean in my kennel. I am very friendly and social with people who come in. I am good on a leash after the first couple of minutes. The list goes on and on. I get along well with MALE dogs around my own size. I don t really like female dogs or small dogs of either sex. I am VERY playful with large male dogs and the pound hasn thad any issues with me with bigger sized males. I love going up to the play yard and running around with my boyfriends . Prety much my only problem here is that I have absolutely no trouble climbing a 6 fence and I can do it in a matter of seconds so I have to be supervised at all times when I am outside playing. The pound suggests that even if my new family has a fence I should still be supervised when I am outside to potty or that I should have strong tie out or be walked when I am out to potty. If you re looking for a nice dog to add to your family please consider adopting me.Our adoption fee is 120.00. The adoption fee must be paid in CASH. We are unable to accept personal checks or credit debit cards for adoption fees. ALL dogs puppies adopted from our shelter will receive their parvo distemper vaccine bordetella vaccine rabies vaccine (if aged at 12 weeks or older) be dewormed with a 3 day course of panacur dewormer be microchipped receive their current Ohio dog license and will be spayed or neutered. ALL DOGS PUPPIES WILL BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED unless a health issue prohibits the surgery from being performed. Not all dogs posted for adoption are spayed neutered yet. If you re driving a long distance to adopt please verify that the vetting process has been completed and dog you re interested in adopting is still available for adoption. The above mentioned vetting is all included in your adoption fee. The adoption fee and what is included in the adoption fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Adoptions MUST be done at the pound and in person as there is paperwork to fill out and an adoption contract that must be signed by the adopter. This means you must be willing to travel to our shelter to adopt. IF the dog you re interested in adopting has medical conditions or injuries which require medical treatment we ask that you help with the medical bills so we can continue to help the dogs coming in who need additional vet care.We are a county run shelter therefore we cannot control our intake or the health or behavior of the dogs that come in to our shelter. Although we try our hardest to place all of our adoptable dogs there are certain circumstances in which any dog in our care could be euthanized at any time and without further notice (IE sudden untreatable medical condition or injury temperament or behavioral problems which may not be apparent when the dog first arrives lack or space etc.) therefore all dogs at our shelter should be considered urgent. The adoption of a more highly adoptable dog will mean more time for the less adoptable dog in the kennel next to him Shelter hours are Monday-Friday 8 am- 4 pmSaturday 9 am- 12 pm. The pound is CLOSED to the public on Sunday. There is nobody in the office on Saturday and Sunday so therefore we are unable to answer or return phone calls over the weekend. Can t adopt a dog We would love to have more volunteers who are able to spend time with our dogs The dogs LOVE going for walks and the socialization and exercise helps make the dogs more adoptable.
