Story
Meet Hannah: The 65lb Diamond in the Fluff! 💎✨ Are you looking for a professional napper with a heart of gold? Hannah is an 11-year-young Border Collie mix who proves that age is just a number and "curvy" is a lifestyle! Currently weighing in at 65 lbs, Hannah is on a dedicated fitness journey (aren’t we all?) to get back to her svelte self. But don’t let the diet fool you—she’s got plenty of "spunk" left in her step! Why Hannah is the ultimate roommate: Expert Snoozer: Her favorite hobby is sleeping upside down on the couch. High-level gymnastics? No, just Hannah at nap time. 🤸‍♀️💤 Social Butterfly: She absolutely adores people and gets along famously with other dogs. Cuddle Bug: She’s a world-class snuggler and currently spends her nights tucked up with her canine foster siblings. 🐕❤️ Hannah found herself looking for a new chapter after her previous owner moved into assisted living. She’s handled the transition with total grace and is ready to bring her soulful eyes and goofy upside-down smiles to a forever home. If you have a couch, a heart for seniors, and a commitment to her "less kibble, more cuddles" plan, Hannah is waiting for you!

Meet TWINKIE! She is a 4 ish year old Border Collie who weighs 35 pounds. She is friendly and does well with other dogs. Twinkie, like all Border Collies, is a bundle of energy and will need an active family who will exercise both mind and body daily. She is crate trained, knows some commands and walks well on a leash. Unfortunately, Twinkie was mistreated in her previous home and had to be removed by the Sheriff. She hasn't lost her spirit and is very resilient. She is looking forward to getting a stable family and getting treated well. Adoption fee is $400 All Ashland County Humane Society animals' adoption fees include: ~spay/neuter ~micro-chip ~de-worming ~vaccinations, including rabies ~heartworm prevention If you are interested in adopting this dog, please visit: www.ashlandhumane.org/adoption-application (copy and paste link to address bar) for a printable application.

Story
I got Benji when I was in a relationship but now since I’m alone and I work full time he does not get the attention he needs. He’s very active and can start to act out when he doesn’t receive enough attention, mostly chewing things up. He does go to doggy daycare so I know he works well with other dogs. He is 4 years old, fixed, and up to date on all his shots. He’s potty trained and never has any accidents. He’s a very sweet dog and loves to give kisses. I just feel like he deserves a more present home environment.

✨Meet Lady Glitter Sparkles✨ Yes. That is her government name. And yes—she earned it. Lady Glitter Sparkles arrived as a stray on 3/11/26, likely after finishing a world tour of being fabulous and sprinkling joy (and probably a little chaos) wherever she went. At about 2 years old, she is in her prime: confident, charming, and fully aware that she is, in fact, the moment. She is a pretty girl who absolutely lives up to her name—minus the actual glitter (we checked… mostly). She’s incredibly sweet, super friendly, and operates under one very important belief system: “Everyone I meet is my best friend, and every hot dog belongs to me.” Speaking of hot dogs… if you have one, congratulations—you now have Lady Glitter Sparkles’ full attention, loyalty, and possibly your personal space revoked. She will love you deeply, immediately, and with zero hesitation. She may look like a big glamorous superstar in her photos, but plot twist—she’s actually around 40 lbs of pure sparkle and sass. Compact. Portable. Perfect for your everyday life upgrade. Lady Glitter Sparkles is the kind of dog who turns heads, steals hearts, and probably assumes every room she enters has a spotlight. And honestly? She’s not wrong. ✨If your home is missing a little sparkle, a lot of personality, and a hot dog enthusiast with main character energy—your girl is waiting.✨ 📍 Lady Glitter Sparkles is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov Adoption is an application process—apply today and add a little ✨dazzle✨ to your life.

Story
In the Prison Dog Program Meet Damian!! He came in as a stray on 11/16/25, and we think he’s about 3 years old. This is actually his second time here—he was adopted from us in 2023. We aren't sure why his owner hasn’t come in to pick him up, but what we do know is that Damian is ready to start fresh with someone who truly sees his sparkle. Damian is a high-energy, happy-go-lucky guy who just needs someone who can help him channel all that enthusiasm into fun, love, and adventure. He is super sweet, incredibly friendly, and he gives the kind of gentle kisses that melt your heart on contact. He already knows how to sit and shake, and he’s eager to learn more—especially if treats are involved! He is available for adoption, so hurry in to meet this lovable boy who’s hoping his next home is his forever one. Damian is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH Phone: 419-774-5892 It is an application process. You can request one via dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov
