The Holmes County Dog Warden's Department is a county run facility that picks up stray dogs and accepts owner surrenders (when there is space available in our kennel). We are a very small kennel which can only house a small number of dogs and, unfortunately, have to result to euthanization due to lack of space. Dogs that are found as strays legally have to be kept for 72 hours before they can be adopted or can be euthanized.

We use Patented Kuranda Dog Beds because they are durable, chew proof and easy to clean. If you would like to donate a bed to us, click here.

ADOPTING A NEW FRIEND

If you are interested in one of the dogs available for adoption, please contact our office as soon as possible!
The web page is updated frequently, so please continue to check the dogs that are available.

The adoption fee is $49.00.
This fee includes a dog license for the current year. All dogs leaving the facility must have a current license.
Approved rescue groups may be eligible for a reduced pull fee of $25.00.

At this time, we are unable to provide vet care at our facility and cannot guarantee the health of the dog. It is strongly encouraged that you take your new dog to a vet soon after he or she is adopted.

If you are unable to adopt a new friend at this time, please consider donating a leash, treats, food, a kuranda bed, etc.
All donations are greatly appreciated!
