Meet Tiny

This 11-pound Chihuahua/Terrier mix may be small, but don't try to tell him that- he's never noticed! He was found as a stray in a tougher neighborhood, apparently living in an abandoned building. He was initially very frightened of meeting new people, which is understandable for a dog living on the streets, where he was most likely shooed away. But after spending time in the loving hands of STAF volunteers, Tiny has discovered that people are nice, and he now loves everyone. We're so proud of the progress he's made!

Tiny is an energetic boy, happy to trot along next to you, run in the yard, or play with other dogs. And after all that excitement, he'll climb into your lap for a cuddle and a nap. He has been attending doggy daycare, where after some initial shyness he met some new friends and explored!

Because of his diminutive size, this little guy will do best in a home without those wobbly toddler-types who can easily fall on tiny Tiny:)

Tiny is ready to find a forever family who will give him the confidence to live out his big-dog dream.

Tiny needs: A calmer home without young children
Tiny would love : Positive based training to help build confidence and a home that likes to take walks
Tiny's estimated birth date is June 2016

Please see our homepage for visiting hours and adoption details.


All of our animals are spayed/neutered and current on shots.
You must complete an application at the shelter prior to meeting any of our animals. (Sorry--our application is not available on-line or via email.)
We do not do same-day adoptions; we ask that you return for a follow-up visit before taking an animal home.
We require a fenced yard (sorry--no invisible fences) for homes with children under age 11.
We do request vet and personal references.
At this time, we are only able to consider applicants within 75 miles of Cincinnati.


Can’t adopt but want to help? You can make a difference! Our shelter is run entirely on volunteer-power and generous donations from animal-lovers like you. 100% of your contribution goes directly to caring for our 500+ furry residents. Thank you for your support.
