Loveland, Ohio – We are pleased to present Loveland Magazine’s Pet of the Month for March! The community of Loveland provided us with some excellent St. Patty’s Day Pet of the Month photos and we are beyond thrilled to celebrate these local pets with YOU the readers!
Introducing Murphy Flanagan, an 11-year-old Goldendoodle, who was born on St. Patty’s Day! Murphy was adopted by Laurie Flanagan and her family who have a strong Irish background.
Laurie Flanagan says Murphy has spent his entire life as a Loveland resident and his 2 human brothers and sister all went to Loveland schools.
“He is a friendly fluff who enjoys exploring in the woods, going on car rides, stealing toys from his neighbor dog friend Bailey, stealing treats from his other neighbor dog friend Oscar, chewing on sticks, and swimming in the ocean,” Flanagan said, “He is affectionately called ‘peanut butter boy’ by his Loveland groomer, Pon of Top Dog Grooming given his lip-smacking joy eating the creamy stuff.”
Murphy loves walking the trail between Symmes Park and Home of the Brave just so he can catch a glimpse of kids playing sports or practicing their instruments for band, according to Flanagan.
“Murphy also likes going to the Loveland Farmers Market to sniff around for the dog treat booth and enjoys hanging on the patio at Ramsey’s Trailside on a nice summer day,” Flanagan added, “We received sad news back in October that Murphy was diagnosed with sarcoma and given 6-12 months to live. Even with a large mass on his right hip that continues to grow in size and is now impacting his walking, he still is a happy camper sharing his good nature and love with anyone he encounters; humans and dogs alike!”

Loveland, Ohio – We are pleased to present Loveland Magazine’s Pet of the Month for February! The community of Loveland provided us with some lovely Pet of the Month photos and we are beyond thrilled to celebrate these local pets with YOU the readers!
Introducing Star, a beautiful 4-year-old Holsteiner Cross rescued horse, adopted by Dawn Mason! Star was rescued by Fighting Chance Rescue (FCR) in January 2020.
“Star was on the brink of death, extremely malnourished and unable to stand on her own. Transporting her was a group effort involving the Reily Twp F.D., Kim and Joe Kinder of FCR, and many volunteers,” Mason explained, “Star arrived at FCR strapped to a stretcher and had to immediately be placed in a sling. FCR then made a plea on Facebook asking for help with her.”
Mason had recently lost her 33-year-old horse when hearing about Star needing help.
“I was somewhat depressed and looking for some purpose. Upon seeing Star’s photo, I wanted to help her,” Mason said, “They were just getting her in the sling when I arrived. She looked so tiny and frail. They started her on i.v. fluids then put blankets and heat lamps on her and we waited for the vet. As soon as she got those fluids and started to warm up, she started fighting us. As weak as she was, she had no trust in people and wanted to get away.”
Star required 24-hour observation while in her sling so a community of volunteers took turns watching over her. Mason said she was able to spend several nights with Star during this time.
“Kim from FCR didn’t give Star very good odds of survival. Horses at such a point of malnourishment and muscle wasting often have unseen organ damage they can never recover from. But there was something different about Star, her attitude and fight, I knew she was going to make it,” Mason said.
To everyone’s surprise, a few weeks later Star was able to stand on her own, go outside, and move around.
“Tanya Tieman, the owner of Equisports, provided Bemer therapy treatments for Star and some of the other horses at FCR. During the 1st week of March 2020, Tanya offered to let Star come to Equisports and stay for rehab and some training,” Mason said, “I was able to visit Star a couple of times, but then came the ‘covid lockdown.’ I periodically received updates from Kim, but wasn’t able to see Star.”
In June of 2020, Mason got an unexpected text message from Kim asking if she was interested in adopting Star. Mason jumped on the opportunity and decided to bring Star home just a few weeks later. A few months later after bringing Star home, Mason took her to compete in her first horse show where Star grabbed a 2nd place finish. Shortly after Star competed she then got the chance to be a part of the South Lebanon Christmas in the Village horse parade.
“What makes Star truly special is her attitude. She thinks the world revolves around her and that everything should be done ‘Star’s way.’ Kim often refers to her as a diva,” Mason said, “But that attitude made her a survivor. She’s also a wonderful ambassador for rescue. And this is just the beginning…she’s a rising star!”

Loveland, Ohio – We are pleased to present Loveland Magazine’s Pets of the Month for January! The community of Loveland provided us with some very festive Pet of the Month photos and we are beyond thrilled to celebrate these pets’ holiday photos with YOU the readers!
Introducing Cooper, a 13-year-old Cocker Spaniel, and Molly, a 7-year-old Lab-Mix that owner Cassie Sepello adopted from HART Cincinnati. Sepello told us that these two beautiful dogs are a huge part of her family’s lives, especially her kids!
“Cooper and Molly have grown up with our kids! They adore our kids and our kids adore them,” Sepello said, “They also love to go on walks around Loveland. Some of their favorite places include the Meade Park trail, Symmes park trails, and the bike path in Loveland, especially when they get to go behind Nisbet park and hop in the river!”
Sepello also shared that Molly is quite the athlete as she loves to go on runs around their neighborhood!
“Molly ran all my long runs with me when I was training for a half marathon. She was still wagging her tail after finishing a 12-mile training run! She’s definitely an endurance runner,” Sepello added.

Tulika Prasad is the loving owner of Buddy, a 7.5-year-old Lab mix! Buddy is a shelter dog but is now a part of Prasad’s family of 4, which includes her son, Buddy, of course, her husband, and herself.
“My son is autistic and non-verbal and Buddy is his only friend,” Prasad explained, “We can never thank Buddy enough for that! Buddy loves to play fetch and go on walks. He also has an insatiable appetite!”
Buddy is one of the most gentle “giants” you will ever come across, according to Prasad.
“I have had guests come into my house saying they are petrified of dogs and then leave, getting a selfie with Buddy,” Prasad said, “He is just that adorable!”
Although Buddy is over 100 pounds, Prasad says “this golden furball” is the life of their house!

“The old one-room schoolhouse was purchased by Dave, Stacey, and Bailey Vermette in 2016. After doing some research about the old school, the Vermette’s uncovered the name of the old building; Pleasant View school which was built in 1872. The vision that the Vermette’s had for the schoolhouse was to create an art studio and a gathering place for family and friends. The structure has been decorated in a very relaxing and unique way to honor Loveland, art, and our love for animals.”- The Vermette’s
