Columbus, Ohio, Rescue Dog Photographer - Buddy

Meet Buddy. Buddy is one of the 80 dogs recently seized in a Pike County hoarding case. For those who wish to learn more about Buddy and his friends, continue reading below *Trigger warning: animal cruelty*

On January 30th, a Pike County man was arrested when humane agents were tipped off about animal cruelty happening on the premises. When they arrived, humane agents were greeted by a deceased dog that was tied to a tractor and appeared to have been beaten to death. They found 80 living but emaciated dogs and 40 deceased dogs on the property. Buddy is one of those lucky 80 pups that were removed from the premise and turned over to the Pike County animal shelter. From there, Stop the Suffering Animal Rescue of Ohio stepped in to help with a number of dogs. These pups are now in foster homes learning what it’s like to be loved, with full bellies and comfortable beds. After receiving medical care and some TLC, Buddy and his friends are ready to find their forever homes through Stop The Suffering. To apply to adopt, visit https://www.stopthesuffering.org/adopt

Columbus, Ohio, Rescued Dog Photography - Ace

I got to meet and photograph handsome Mr. Ace recently! Ace is currently searching for his forever home through Stop the Suffering Animal Rescue of Ohio. He's an approximately 5-years-old, 45 pound Golden Retriever mix.

Ace is the sweetest guy. For a special treat, he does the most adorable spin when he's excited. When you meet him, he warms up quickly and is your best buddy - especially if you're willing to offer belly rubs and bones - two of his favorite things. He is house trained and crate trained and is just ready to be your bestest boy. Ace LOVES to go for walks and spend time outdoors. He is so happy when he is roaming around a fenced yard, so a fenced in backyard is a must, as Ace loves to bask in the sun and run when given the opportunity. He does well with other dogs, though he requires slow introductions to other dogs and boundaries, particularly around food. Younger kids are likely not the best option for Ace's home as he does guard his food. Ace does have some longterm medical needs that his adopter will need to keep up with. He will need to take daily medication for his heart and arthritis. Apply today to meet Ace!
