Story
Say hello to Magnolia! Magnolia and her furry family are famous and have won the hearts of our Ashland community (see video). She was born on March 27, 2026 We think Momma is an Australian Kelpie and she weights 35 pounds. It's hard to say what the puppies are mixed with, as mom was on the run for many months meeting all the local boys in town. Magnolia is all things puppy! She is adorable, clumsy, funny, no sense of personal space, playful, energetic, nosy, attention seeking and a bundle of joy! Is there anything better than puppy breath?!? Magnolia was lucky enough to be selected for the Mansfield Correctional Institution's Tender Loving Care Dog Program. She is learning hand commands, basic obedience, proper leash walking, crate training, socialization and manners. Unfortunately, we don't have up to date photos, but she looks a lot like Neo and Asher, her brothers who are also posted. Adoption fee is $250 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
We acquired Cassie from the Richland County Humane Society about 6 years ago. When we adopted her we lived in Shiloh Ohio on 2 acres of land and she had lots of room to run and not be confined. My husband has Alzheimer’s and Dementia and we had to sell and live with my mom for 2 months and she had to be chained and could not run free we just recently bought a mobile home and we are aloud to have her here but again she always had to be on a leach and can not run free. She is very unhappy here and I just want to see her go to someone that has room to her to run.
