Dog for Adoption - Ryker, a Terrier in Jefferson, OH

Rose's Rescue

A small group of volunteers..no paid employees. Our dogs are in area foster homes or they are housed at Rose's..in a heated pole building with a "bedroom" (toddler beds, a chair and a radio..so they can keep up on current events) with a dog door to a small fenced area to potty in through out the day and night. Then they get to play in a four acre fenced in area and swim in the pond every day too! We do not have a "shelter" per se and only under special circumstances are any of our animals "kenneled". They are very well socialized with people and other animals, which makes it much easier to know their temperaments. We do NOT take owner surrenders. But we will do courtesy posts for pets that are vetted and in need of homes. OUR MISSION STATEMENT Rose's Rescue is an all breed rescue for dogs and cats. We primarily concentrate on local pound rescues as we feel these are the animals in the most dire need of a second chance. We are committed to finding the best possible home for each, and every animal that comes into our rescue and we are available to help with any training or behavioral issues for the life of each animal. Rose's Rescue requires that any animal adopted through our organization be returned to us if for any reason the family is no longer able to care for them. Rose's Rescue is also committed to educating the public on the importance of spay and neuter, routine vaccinations, heartworm protection for dogs, and aids and leukemia testing for cats. According to the Humane Society of American over 4 million dogs, cats, kittens and puppies are killed each year. It is our goal to some day see no adoptable pets euthanized.Every two months, Rose’s Rescue chooses a few special candidates for a new class of dogs to be trained at the Trumbull Correctional Institution near Warren, Ohio. While enrolled in this program, each dog will be trained by selected inmates and overseen by professional dog trainer Bill Oliver (www.customcaninecompany.com) who generously volunteers his time with this laudable project. Upon completion of their training, cell dogs will have learned important socialization skills, have mastered basic obedience commands, and be fully housebroken. They will also be taught tricks to entertain their future families and friends, such as sitting pretty, playing dead, and give a high five. All dogs can be visited (by appointment and accompanied by a Rose’s Rescue representative) while at the prison. They can be adopted upon graduation, or occasionally sooner if a dog has done exceptionally well and is deemed ready to leave before the class is actually finished. All of our current cell dogs or graduates are designated as such in their individual descriptions in the “Our Adoptables” section of this website. If you’d like to get a jump-start on training your new pet, consider adopting a Rose’s Rescue cell dog!

Meet Ryker

Hi! My name is Ryker, and I'm 8 years old and I would be great for a senior. I am $60 for a 60 plus person. In my foster home, I have to take turns with another dog, at being with the group. He doesn't like me. This makes me sad, because I love my people. If you are a man, I can hang with you while you do projects. I don't require much, but a short walk a day and then sitting at your side.I still have spunk, but sitting next to my senior is everything to me.I am losing weight now. I should be 25 pounds eventually. My person fed me McDonald's and we all know what that does to you. I am back on dog food. Sadly, my previous human mom's health has declined so much, that she can no longer care for me. I am a lovable guy, that would love to be your best friend. Loyalty is my number one quality. I have lived with another dog most of my life, but I will do better as the only dog now. I was the alpha with the other dog. I need my person to be the alpha. I want all of the attention and won't play with another dog.I would love to sit at a senior's side again. I am house trained and calmly wait for my person.I don't need a fenced yard. I have no desire to leave my person. I'm used to living in a small house with very little space to run. . I have so much love left in me to give. I want to be a good doggy for you!
