Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in New Albany, Ohio

The Historical Icon pups are about 6 weeks old.

We're not sure what breed they are, but we're guessing shepherd mix based off their mom's looks.

Maggie (their mom) only weighs 39 lbs. We think the puppies will be medium to large size.

Nelson really likes to be held and loves people! We don't think he would be a good fit for an apartment because he is a bit vocal.

The puppies can start meeting families now and will be able to go home with adopters starting June 6th.

Adoption fee is $400. All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, flea and heartworm current. Apply at rescuedohio.org to become an approved adopter and a meet and greet can be set up once approved.
