I'm ready to meet YOU!

Hocus is a larger fellow with a quiet charm, casting his own kind of charm on everyone he meets with his calm, steady nature. He’s relaxed and gentle with people, and he shows off his fun side in playgroup, where he’s playful with other dogs. This big, easygoing guy blends mellow moments with bursts of silly enthusiasm, making him a delightful companion for anyone who enjoys a balance of peaceful hangouts and lighthearted fun.

All adoptable pets are spayed/neutered (or scheduled), vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to go home today! No pre-application or appointment needed—just bring a valid ID and walk in. Our adoption fees are among the lowest in Cincinnati!

To meet our animals, visit our Northside shelters any day from 1–6pm. If listed as foster, email [email protected]
to schedule a meet and greet. Adopting an adult dog with resident dogs or kids at home? Bring them along to ensure it’s a perfect match.
