Featured Dog:  Lionel

10/24/2019

 
Picture
“Hello, is it me you’re searching for?” Lionel is our pocket-size pit-bull mix. Standing at a solid 45 lbs. He is the perfect mix of beauty, brains, and size.

He is a loving boy who is good with puppies, female dogs, and most neutered males. He loves playing in the yard with most of our dogs and pups here. We are working on his obedience, but he is very quick to learn. Lionel loves kids and is very sweet and gentle with them. We are hoping Lionel finds the perfect match…is it you?

Featured Cat:  Trixie

10/22/2019

 
Picture
This shy, but sweet, little lady is an absolute joy and wants nothing more than a family to call her own.  Trixie loves to be petted and will reciprocate with head butts all day long.  But since she is shy, Trixie will need a quiet home without small children.  We think she would be overjoyed to spend the bulk of her day sitting next to her special person on the couch, binge watching chick flix or talk shows.  If you need a buddy to share your popcorn with (that won't fight you for the remote), this just might be the girl for you!

Featured dog:  Honey:  Adopted!!!

7/30/2018

 
Picture
Honey is a sweet brindle hound/terrier mix that came to ORHS in May 2018. She was pregnant at the time and has since had her litter of 7 babies.  She was a great mama to her pups and is now ready to be adopted.  She is very sweet and loves to receive attention from the staff at ORHS. She likes to go on walks and play with her toys.  She is especially fond of her squeaky toy duck that she will fetch and roll around with it while hanging out of her mouth.  Her adorable under-bite makes her irresistible to all the staff at ORHS and we are hoping someone else will find it irresistible as well. 

Featured Cat:  Tweed

7/30/2018

 
Picture
This sweet little kitty was brought to us from a local middle school after being found with one of her back paws strangulated by a string or long carpet fiber.  The paw was extremely swollen and misshapen; it seemed almost a sure thing that Tweed would require amputation.  Our wonderful volunteers immediately started following the prescribed medical plan:  Tweed’s swollen foot received hours and hours of hydrotherapy and massage, along with oral antibiotics.  Little by little the size of her paw reduced...then a little bit of fur started growing on the bare skin...and the wound from the carpet fiber healed.  Thanks to this outstanding care, Tweed will not require amputation of her injured foot!  This adorable tuxedo is very sweet and social.  She loves to play with other kittens and, they way this girl runs, you would never know she has been through such an ordeal.  Tweed will make a great companion and an exceptional addition to any family.

Featured cat:  Priscilla HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

7/5/2018

 
Picture
This gorgeous girl came to us from animal control right before she had kittens...literally, RIGHT before she had kittens!  Yes, she gave birth to 7 beauties 3 hours after her arrival!  But now that her kids are weaned, Priscilla is ready for a home of her own and she would be thrilled to have a sun room or screened porch.  This is a sweet young lady who thoroughly enjoys lounging in the sun but is still very playful.  If you’re looking for a pretty companion with a great personality, then Priscilla is your girl!

Featured dog:  Jenny HAS BEEN ADOPTED!

Jenny came to us last December. Some people had found her and her siblings in a box. Emaciated and worm-ridden, two of the five puppies were unable to be saved.

Jenny weighed only a pound and a half! She was a fighter though and she started to recover with the help of great veterinarians and the love of a foster family.

Jenny was adopted in February but sadly, through no fault of her own, she was returned by her new owner. She is a sweet girl with an extremely passive demeanor.

She plays well with other dogs and wants to be held, although she has grown a little large for most laps! She walks great on leash, is crate trained and appears to be housebroken. She looks like she will stay a petite medium size and wants nothing more than to please a new owner!
