Dandie - OS's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Dandie – Your Easygoing Sidekick<br/>Dandie is a mature gentleman who’s all about the simple joys in life—cuddles on the couch, car rides with the window cracked, and tagging along wherever his people go. Whether it’s a trip to Lowe’s or just running errands, Dandie is happiest when he’s by your side.<br/>Laid-Back & Low Maintenance: He’s easygoing and doesn’t ask for much—just love, attention, and a cozy spot on the couch (he’s got a little step-up to help him get there).<br/>Big Personality in Small Moments: Most of the time, he’s calm and quiet, but every once in a while, you’ll get a bark—or even a playful howl! It’s his way of keeping life fun.<br/>Adventure Buddy: Buckle him in the car, let him sniff the breeze, and he’s one happy pup.<br/>House Training: Dandie does well if kept on a routine schedule.<br/>Yard & Walks: While he doesn’t require a fenced yard (though we do prefer one for his safety), Dandie walks very nicely on a leash and absolutely loves being with his person—whether that’s in the yard, on a walk, or out on an adventure.<br/>Best Home: Dandie would thrive with someone who enjoys a loyal, low-maintenance companion. If you’re looking for a cuddle bug who will happily share your couch, your bed, and your daily adventures, Dandie is your guy.<br/>Dandie’s past may have brought him back to us when his previous adopter moved and couldn't take him with her, but his future is wide open—and he’s ready to fill it with love and loyalty.<br/>Apply today to make Dandie part of your family!PLEASE NOTE:<br/>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<br/><br/>individual webpage of our dogs<br/><br/>, you will be able to get more information each dog.<br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>Our Adoption Process<br/><br/>The adoption process has several steps involved.<br/><br/>Please review prior to submitting an application.<br/>Our adoption process is detailed here:<br/><br/>http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption<br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>Special Requirements<br/><br/>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.<br/><br/>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.<br/>No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.<br/>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.<br/><br/>Out of State Adoptions<br/><br/>We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.<br/>We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.<br/><br/>12/8/25 2:14 AM
