Story

Say hello to ASHER! Asher and his furry family are famous and have won the hearts of our Ashland community (see video on our Facebook page). Asher 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. Asher is all things puppy! He 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?!? 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. Complete and email back to applications@AshlandHumane.org We are an all volunteer-based organization that does not have a building or a staff, only 8 members with jobs and families, trying to make a difference. We do not have the volunteer manpower to show animals to non-approved applicants. If your application gets screened and approved, we will contact you to arrange a meet and greet and you can decide if this is the right pet for you. Thank you

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Rescued Twix in 2017 in a home where it was over populated with dogs. Did well with his brother when his brother was alive. He is an absolute sweetheart and loves to play fetch and cuddle. Will come up and give you kisses. He is 9 years old. I want him to be rehomed in to a good family that will cherish him and his goofiness. He is extremely sweet, and as soon as anyone comes in he wants to wiggle his butt and give kisses. Doesnt show any aggression, does well with kids, very energetic but calms down after about 10 minutes.

Story

🎬 Now Casting: Monroe!! 🎬 Straight out of a sitcom, here comes Monroe—the lovable, slightly awkward neighbor who just showed up as a stray on 8/19/25. We think he’s about 4 years old, but honestly, his goofy charm is timeless. At first, he might peek around the corner like, “Oh hey…uh…is this seat taken?” because new people and new places can make him a little skittish. But give him a minute, and suddenly he’s bursting through the door with tail wags, zoomies, and the kind of playful energy that deserves its own laugh track. He’s athletic enough to chase a tennis ball but not so coordinated that he won’t occasionally trip over his own feet (classic Monroe move). And when the episode slows down for the heartfelt moment, he’ll be right there with affectionate cuddles, proving he’s the star of your show. So grab your popcorn, because this sweet and funny guy is ready to be adopted into your family sitcom. Don’t miss your chance—Monroe’s best episodes are still ahead! 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter, Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 Applications: dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov

Story

TESTED WITH MALE DOGS AND DID WELL Meet Sanji!! This handsome guy came in as a stray on 9/19/25, and we think he’s about a year old. Sanji started out a little unsure of us—he wasn’t quite convinced we were the good guys—but every day he’s learning that people mean belly rubs, treats, and friendship. Sanji is the kind of dog who just needs a little extra time to trust. But once he knows you’re safe, he’ll reward you with happy smiles, tail wags, and plenty of kisses. Underneath his cautious exterior is a sweet pup who just wants a person to call his own. He’s available for adoption now, so come meet him and earn his heart—it’ll be worth it! 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter, Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 Request an application: dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov

Story

Ahem… clears throat… taps microphone… H-hi everyone. Um. My name is Garth. (Please don’t look at me all at once.) I came in as a stray on 12/11/25, and they think I’m about 5 years old. I’m… uh… a handsome guy, apparently. I didn’t smile for the camera today because—well—this is all a lot. Crowds are scary. Cameras are scary. The shelter is scary. 😟 I’m very shy and I tend to stand close to you because you make me feel safe. I kind of look to my person for protection, like, “Is this okay? Are we good?” My eyes might look sad right now, but that’s just because I haven’t found my place yet. I’m hoping—very quietly—that someone kind will see me, take me home, and help me learn that the world isn’t so scary after all. I promise I’m worth it… I just need a little patience and a lot of love. Okay. Um. Thank you for listening. I’ll be available for adoption now. Please come meet me. 🐾 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📝 Adoption is an application process. You can request one via dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov

Story

Meet Reggie!! 🎉 Reggie came in as a stray on 2/3/26, is about 2 years old, and has approximately 1,000% enthusiasm for life. This handsome hunk is super sweet, wildly playful, and firmly believes every human exists solely to play with him. Toys? Yes. People? Also yes. Playing with people using toys? His favorite sport. Reggie loves to snuggle—but only after he’s zoomed, bounced, and partied his way through the room first. He’s strong and pulls hard on the leash, so walking him currently feels a bit like being drafted into an impromptu CrossFit workout. With some training (and maybe a good pair of sneakers), he’ll be unstoppable. If you’re looking for a dog who brings the energy, the laughs, and the love, Reggie is your guy. He’s basically a personal trainer, comedian, and cuddle buddy all rolled into one. 🏃‍♂️🐾 Reggie is available for adoption—hurry in before he drags someone else down the hallway! 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter – Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📝 It is an application process. Request one via dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov Warning: adopting Reggie may result in sore arms, a full heart, and nonstop smiles 💙🐶
