Shelter FAQs

Friendship APL is a private, independent, non-profit [501(c)(3)] humane society founded in Elyria, Ohio in 1957. We own and operate the largest animal shelter in Lorain County. Our members incorporated on August 30, 1957 as the Lorain County Animal Protective League. We changed our name to Friendship Animal Protective League on October 30, 2005.
Friendship APL receives no government funding. We depend on the generosity and financial support of friends and neighbors, and on various fundraisers, to serve the people and animals of Lorain County and the surrounding area.

Adoptions are made with the best interest of the pets in mind. We attempt to match the right person with the right pet. If you have kids and/or another dog in your family and are interested in adopting a Friendship dog please bring them with you for a meet and greet. No meet and greets are required for cats. No appointment is necessary. Stop by anytime during regular business hours. All pets placed for adoption receive a veterinary examination, their first set of shots, are dewormed and are spayed/neutered. Cats are feline leukemia tested. All cats and dogs over 3 months of age are micro-chipped.
