WQMX Country Pet Rescue features adoptable pets looking for their forever home from Pay It Forward For Pets: brought to you by Wilson Plumbing and Heating.

Meet Chip … that smile! Those pearly white teeth! What a heart-throb!

We love this little dog, and we love his name. It fits him well. He’s a true stealer of hearts❤️, a staff favorite, and the definition of a “lapdog.”

This pup is thought to be a mix of Chihuahua and Dachshund. At approximately one year of age, our 22 pound “cutie-pa-tootie” has a lot of life to live and is ready for his next home – and family. Chip is an example of what you can find in a shelter as we see every type of dog, imaginable. And, they all deserve a safe and loving home.

Brought in as a stray, this tiny guy was found on the busy streets of downtown Akron. We are grateful for the good Samaritan that got involved and got Chip to safety at Summit County Animal Control. This pint-sized pup would not have done well had he encountered a moving car.

As a friendly reminder, an appropriately fitted collar with current identification information will get your dog home fastest should they become lost; however, even that will not protect them from an unfortunate accident while on the streets. We need to do better at keeping our pets safe at home. Containment is the law.

Interested in adopting? Don’t delay … reach out to schedule your “meet and greet,” today!
