About Paulding County Dog Shelter
We are a Government run County facility. The dogs in our shelter are here as strays or owner surrendered due to various reasons mostly through no fault of the dogs. We do our very best to temperament test the dogs. We do have office cats that we are able to socialize the dogs with to find out their reaction to cats. We also have a professional trainer that works with the dogs once a week. We treat all of the dogs as if they were are very own and try to make their time in the shelter a positive experience for them.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
