My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Eleanor is a very sweet girl! She loves people and is great with kids, but might be too high energy for young children. She seems to enjoy other dogs and did very well in her previous foster home. She will need a home without cats. She is energetic, playful, and entertaining! Keep in mind, her energy can get her into trouble; she can clear a 6 foot chain link fence! Eleanor would thrive with a large privacy fence and lots of room to roam!

More about this shelter

Marion Area Humane Society is a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization incorporated in 1967 under ORC 1717. We strive to educate, assist and protect the animals of the Marion area. Since 1986 have operated a shelter to provide a humane environment for homeless animals. In 2011 several generous donors and grants made it possible for a shelter renovation and addition of a separate intake section. MAHS operates a open-admissions shelter with a guilt and fee free surrender policy, to encourage owners who can not properly care or maintain proper living conditions for their pets to do the best thing for the pet. MAHS also provides humane investigations and a spay/neuter voucher program for Marion county.
