About Anna

Hi there. My name is Anna. I'm about 3 years old and I weigh about 35-40 lbs. I was brought in to the pound by someone who claimed to have found me as a stray. I was okay while he was here but when he left I turned very fearful. It has taken me weeks to finally come around to shelter staff and volunteers. Now that I have gotten time to get used to everyone, I am very happy and loving with the people here. I am still afraid of strangers and I act defensive initially. I just need someone who will be patient with me and give me time to come around to you rather than someone who corners and pressures me. It takes me a little while but once I know you're not going to hurt me, I will start coming up to you and letting you pet me and once I get to know you, I turn into a very happy, loving, playful dog. I get along well with other dogs and I do like to play with other dogs. I am not a fan of other dogs coming near my food, even if I am not eating it, so if you have other pets, I will need fed separately. I have been doing great with keeping my kennel clean and I don't potty in the office either as long as I am let outside often enough. I will require a patient family, preferably without small children, that will be able to train and work with me on my socialization skills. If you think you will be a good family for me and have the time and patience fr me, please consider being my family! Our adoption fee is $120.00. The adoption fee must be paid in CASH. We are unable to accept personal checks or credit/debit cards for adoption fees. ALL dogs/puppies adopted from our shelter will receive their parvo distemper vaccine, bordetella vaccine, rabies vaccine (if aged at 12 weeks or older), be dewormed with a 3 day course of panacur dewormer, be microchipped, receive their current Ohio dog license and will be spayed or neutered. ALL DOGS/PUPPIES WILL BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED unless a health issue prohibits the surgery from being performed. Not all dogs posted for adoption are spayed/ neutered yet. If you're driving a long distance to adopt, please verify that the vetting process has been completed and dog you're interested in adopting is still available for adoption. The above mentioned vetting is all included in your adoption fee. The adoption fee and what is included in the adoption fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Adoptions MUST be done at the pound and in person as there is paperwork to fill out and an adoption contract that must be signed by the adopter. This means you must be willing to travel to our shelter to adopt. IF the dog you're interested in adopting has medical conditions or injuries which require medical treatment, we ask that you help with the medical bills so we can continue to help the dogs coming in who need additional vet care. We are a county run shelter, therefore we cannot control our intake or the health or behavior of the dogs that come in to our shelter. Although we try our hardest to place all of our adoptable dogs, there are certain circumstances in which any dog in our care could be euthanized at any time and without further notice (IE: sudden untreatable medical condition or injury, temperament or behavioral problems which may not be apparent when the dog first arrives, lack or space, etc.), therefore all dogs at our shelter should be considered urgent. The adoption of a more highly adoptable dog will mean more time for the less adoptable dog in the kennel next to him! Shelter hours are: Monday-Friday: 8 am- 4 pm Saturday: 9 am- 12 pm. The pound is CLOSED to the public on Sunday. There is nobody in the office on Saturday and Sunday, so therefore we are unable to answer or return phone calls over the weekend. Can't adopt a dog? We would love to have more volunteers who are able to spend time with our dogs! The dogs LOVE going for walks and the socialization and exercise helps make the dogs more adoptable.
