Who We Are
We are a county funded shelter. Our operating budget is very limited. We are open to take in strays and owner turn-ins. We only have 29 kennels and our focus is to promote and adopt out the dogs we take in.
We try to learn basic information on the dogs, if they know basic commands, are spayed or neutered, good with other dogs, etc. We do have helpful volunteers that will take a dog home to see how they are in a home situation.
As with most shelters we do not know everything about each dog. Our fees to adopt are low. We CANNOT guarantee the health of any animal.
Adopting a friend
Our fee for adopting a new companion is $130.00. Our adoption fee includes Morrow county dog license, spay or neuter including pain medication, vaccinations and all dogs over 6 months of age are heart-worm tested.
