Story
Luna is happy in any situation. She is an excellent watch dog. Other than barking at strangers, she is absolutely quiet at all times. We need to rehome her because my husband's dementia is getting worse and he has behaviors that make it unsafe for her. She is very smart and learns fast, especially with treats. She is boundry trained and doesn't need a fenced yard. The only downside is since she grew up caged most of the time (previous owners) she doesn't know how to play and is wary of strangers. She takes baths well and will let you trim her nails. Although we don't use it, she came with a cage you can have also.

Story
Graham is a senior Beagle mix.  He is around 10 yrs old based on the information that was provided to us.  He is a sweet, playful dog and is very energetic for his age.  He is not good with cats so needs to live in a cat free zone.  He is fine with some dogs but should meet them prior to adoption being approved and finalized. Please call or send an inquiry about Graham if you have interest.  All dogs require an application to be completed and we prefer any residential dogs meet our dogs during the process leading up to approval.  Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt.

Story
Isacc is a young Pitbull mix.  He may have some great dane/lab or boxer in the mix. He is about 10 months old and will require obedience training. Isacc is about 50 lbs and will likely become more stout as he ages and fills out. He does seem to know the 'sit' command and will do it for a snack.  He is fine with other dogs, BUT will need to meet any new housemate prior to adoption being approved.  His companion, Ivan, whom he lived with prior to the shelter is also here and they play well together. We do not know how he is with children or cats.  Isacc is very energetic and will need a lot of exercise.  He loves to go for walks and does ok on the leash but is a work in progress. Anyone interested in Isacc must stop in during regular business hours to meet him and apply.   Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH. 419-946-1747 August 8, 2025, 10:52 am

Story
Thor is a 1 yr old (born April 24, 2024) German Shepherd/Border Collie mix. He is currently around 50 lbs. He is social, good with other dogs and has been around cats. He lived his entire short life outdoors so he will require obedience training, house training and learn how to live inside.   Our hope is that we can send him to the prison for training once we have an opening.  He arrived here with several other dogs from the same property.   If you are interested in Thor or one of his companions/siblings please contact the shelter OR stop in during regular business hours. Application applies with an approval process.    Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH. 419-946-1747April 29, 2025, 1:12 pm

Story
Kona arrived as a stray. She is a big girl and loves people. We are guessing her to be 3 pulse years. She is very selective of her doggy friends. She keeps her kennel clean and loves her toys.  If you have interest please stop in during our regular business hours to meet and apply for him. Dogs do not go home the same day as meeting--we review applications first.June 16, 2025, 10:45 am
