Advice & Info
Adoptions
Date posted: December 8
An experienced staff will help with advice and coaching after the dog has gone home. All adopted dogs are spayed or neutered before leaving the shelter. The County’s very modest adoption fee includes:
- Dog license
- An adoption kit with specially prepared training literature
- Initial vaccines
- Spay/neuter
- Dog food
- Free obedience lecture
We participate in many projects in an attempt to place as many dogs as possible including weekly television showings and “on site” promotions.

A team of volunteers assist the shelter with many activities that we would be unable to accomplish otherwise.
These include:
- Bathing and grooming
- Adoption Follow-Ups
- Literature Distribution
- Fund-Raising
- Humane Education
- Promotional Booth Work
If you have some free time to spare and love animals, helping our homeless canines can be a rewarding experience. Call our volunteer coordinator at 216-525-7877 or check out the Help Us section for other ways that you can help.
