Meet Cosmo Fairfield

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

NOTE: AS OF 11/16/24, WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR COSMO AS WE HAVE RECEIVED A VERY HIGH NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS AND OUR VOLUNTEERS NEED TIME TO PROCESS THEM.

Cosmo's adoption donation is $550 and he is being fostered in Cincinnati, Ohio. He has been neutered, microchipped, received his rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and bordetella vaccines, started on heartworm prevention and flea/tick prevention.

Cosmo came into rescue when he was dumped and ended up at the local shelter. This little man was arriving with a body full of matted hair. Cosmo has made incredible progress in rescue. He was groomed, learned to use the stairs and how to sleep in a crate at night time. He is a sweet, snuggly boy who is all puppy. He enjoys playing with other dogs that are close to his size or smaller. He loves to run around, chase balls and tug a war. He is learning how to walk outside and manage the big world and big leaves. Cosmo would benefit from an active home that can spend the time to train and play with a puppy. He does not need a fenced yard or a companion animal but would love both if you have one. He does well with housetraining is on a schedule, but a patient home is necessary PLEASE NOTE:
If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances. If you go to the

individual webpage of our dogs

, you will be able to get more information each dog.

Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.

Our Adoption Process

The adoption process has several steps involved.

Please review prior to submitting an application.
Our adoption process is detailed here:

http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption

Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.

Special Requirements

Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.

The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home.
No application is approved prior to the home visit being done.
At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.

Out of State Adoptions

We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer.
We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
