Petunia "Toonie" has made such great progress in the last part of her fostering, and she would love to share her new found understanding of life. I have finally come to understand that every person I meet is not bad, and that I am and will be cared for and loved. This is something that was missing in my life prior to Ohio Fuzzy Pawz helping me out of my past situation. Here are some of the things I have learned about myself, and want to share. I like; belly rubs, sunny spots on the floor to lay on, treats (healthy ones), someone to walk with, and someone to sit and cuddle with, oh and treats. I also enjoy being held, and having my fur brushed, I think I could turn into a girlie girl with a little bit of help. Small fuzzy toys to play with, I love to chase toys when thrown though I have yet to figure out why I should bring them back, when all people do is keep throwing them away. Oh and chew treats! Some things I am not sure of; bubble baths though I am a good girl when I take one, strangers when they first come in (few minutes later I am ok). Things I do not like; rain it makes my fur frizz and my feet wet. Crabby people, and rude pets, can we not all enjoy our lives and get along. I am looking for someone to share my likes with, someone to have patience with the things I am not sure of, and understand what I do not like and still love me for who I am becoming. Petunia’s is being fostered in Central Ohio and her adoption donation is $300. The perfect home will also have a strong vet history.

If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances. If you go to the
individual webpage of our dogs
, you will be able to get more information each dog.
Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
The adoption process has several steps involved.
Please review prior to submitting an application.
Our adoption process is detailed here:
http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption
Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.
Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.
The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.
No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.
At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.
We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.
We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
