PLEASE ADOPT OR RESCUE from our pound. We have many, many puppies and dogs coming in everyday. Unfortunately, we are a small, rural pound with very limited space. All of these wonderful dogs and puppies are in need of new homes or rescues as soon as possible. We try our best to hold dogs for as long as possible and make every attempt to place dogs and puppies into loving homes or rescues. We are very adopter and rescue friendly. Please contact us by phone at 740-947-5996 as soon as possible if you see a dog or puppy that you are interested in adopting or rescuing.
WE ARE ALWAYS IN NEED of vaccinations and supplies, such as towels to use when bathing our dogs in our DONATED BOOSTER BATH and flea medication (Capstar) for the dogs and puppies. Please help by donating. All donations may be tax-deductible on an itemized return (check with your tax advisor). If you can make a donation to help the dogs and puppies, it would be very much appreciated. Please send it to the Pound address below.
