The Rescue Inn

⭐️💚 6/6/26 Team Riley Update 💚⭐️. *Graphic Pictures*

We've been in constant contact with Riley's amazing vet team at MedVet Akron. Riley was hesitant to walk today, but could be due to blindness. We are just happy he could stand up. His vitals were good today; temperature is still fluctuating but was okay.. Riley is eating on his own, but even though he's hungry but has to be restored to normal feeding based on a very calculated and strategic refeeding schedule. Riley is fed every 2 hours.

We don't know what the future will bring, but this tiny terrier showed us a will to live today.

Riley will remain hospitalized for a while. As you can imagine, his care is quite extensive. Any donation amount helps! 💚

Pack your bags and pitch a tent! Meet Griffin, the ultimate happy camper who is ready to find his forever campsite! 🌲⛺

Griffin is the perfect blend of a seasoned trailblazer and a loyal companion. He grew up in a loving home since puppyhood, but a change in family circumstances means he is looking for a new park to patrol. He is currently being fostered by his favorite counselors at Camp Bow Wow Strongsville, so he is already an expert at the camping lifestyle!

🎒 The Camper Stats

Age: 6 years old (Born 5/29/2020)
Weight: 115 lbs of pure, strong Chocolate Lab muscle
Breed: Chocolate Labrador Retriever
Gear Preference: Loves squeaky balls and durable Tuffy brand toys

🌲 Outdoor Scouting Skills

Campsite Security: High energy at times and naturally protective of his home.

Water Activities: Loves the beach but only wades in chest-high—no swimming for this boy!

Wildlife Watch: Extremely high drive to chase squirrels and outside objects.

Campsite Requirement: A securely fenced yard is an absolute must for his outdoor adventures.

⛺ Cabin Manners & Personality

Shadow Companion: Follows his people everywhere and thrives on human affection.

Smart & Stubborn: Incredibly intelligent, though he likes to do things on his own schedule sometimes.

Structure Seeker: He thrives when he has a routine and clear boundaries.

House Trained: Both crate trained and housebroken (though expect transitional accidents!).

🧼 Grooming & Maintenance

Spa Day Enthusiast: He absolutely enjoys baths and is great with ear and paw cleanings.
Paw-dicure Rules: Does not like his nails cut, so he visits the vet for his sedated trims.

Important Trail Note: Griffin is a very large, powerful boy. He needs an experienced handler who can physically manage a 115 lb dog on walks and during playtime. He has never been tested around cats.

"In the woods of life, a loyal dog is the best guide you can find."

*GRAPHIC PICTURE WARNING*

Riley is in deplorable shape and has suffered more than any animal should. Found as a stray, we rushed to help because Riley deserves a chance for love - whether that be short-term or long-term.

Riley was immediately transferred to emergency care and hospitalized. He has a body score of 2. Riley is 2.5 lbs. Despite this, he was interested in eating food. Just a tiny bit because he is on a refeeding schedule and being rehydrated. His mouth is a horrible mess. One of his eyes is missing, and the other one is gone and must be removed in the future. His fur was shaved to remove caked f***s.

Humans failed Riley. And The Rescue Inn is picking up the pieces. Riley isn't yet ready to give up - it's clear he's got a will to live so we will support him until or if a decision is appropriate. It's not our first rodeo, unfortunately, in situations like this.

Please help us support Riley. A donation of ANY amount is much appreciated. If you can't donate, share!

🌊 RELEASE THE KRAKEN! (Into Your Heart) 🌊

Meet Kraken, our legendary little sea monster who is ready to anchor himself right into a forever home! Born on April 23, 2026, this mythical boy just hit the 6-week milestone and will be ready for adoption in a few weeks. While he is currently a pint-sized legend weighing in at 11 pounds, he will not stay small for long. He is prophesied to grow into a majestic, standard-sized beast weighing between 60 to 90 pounds!

Kraken’s origin story begins with his resilient mother, Elaine, a stunning merle Labradoodle rescued from a closing breeding operation. Kraken will be ready for adoption in a few weeks, but we are launching our quest today to find his perfect human captains.

🧬 The Legend & The Breed:

Labradoodle Kraken may be named after a mythical sea giant, but he is likely a Standard Labradoodle through and through. Taming this beast requires a commitment to his specific breed needs:

Coat Management: His magical fur requires brushing 3–4 times a week and professional grooming every 6–8 weeks to prevent painful matting.

Energy Outlets: He will need 60–90 minutes of daily exercise like hiking, fetching, or swimming to keep his inner monster happy.

Brain Work: Labradoodles are highly intelligent and need daily mental stimulation like puzzle toys and structured training to prevent mischievous behavior.

Socialization: Early training is crucial to ensure this giant grows up to be a gentle, confident companion rather than a chaotic force.

🌊Boundary Lines of the Kingdom (Adoption Requirements)
Our team is dedicated to tracking Kraken's progress as he grows, so his forever home must meet the following geographic criteria:

Adopters must reside within a 50-mile radius of Cleveland, Ohio.
State Lines: No out-of-state applications please.

If you're interested in Kraken, complete an adoption application here: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html AND email [email protected] upon completion.
