Meet Krissy!! 💁‍♀️✨ Krissy strutted in as a stray on 1/9/26, and we think she’s about 3 years old. Just LOOK at that smile—she knows she’s gorgeous and she’s not afraid to show it. This big, beautiful girl is full of energy, happiness, and main-character vibes. Treats? Meh. Toys? Kinda. Attention? YES, PLEASE. Krissy’s love language is 100% human admiration, and she’s happiest when all eyes (and hands) are on her. She’s super sweet, very affectionate, and always ready to charm her way into your heart. If you’re looking for a confident, joyful, attention-loving best friend, Krissy is your girl. She’s available for adoption, so don’t keep her waiting—she’s got places to be and people to impress! 📍 Krissy is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov Adoption is an application process 🐾

Story

Roxanne (Roxy) has been a great dog. I've had her since she was born in January 2016. Her mom was a Pure Bred AKC Champion Show Siberian Husky that had a run in with a neighbor's fostered German Shepherd. She follows hand/verbal commands really well and is also able to learn new commands. She comes on a whistle or a snap of the fingers. She plays well with other dogs off leash at the dog park but becomes territorial at home or on the leash. She initially doesn't like men but there have been a few friends and family that are men she's warmed up to. So this would be a great dog for a woman that feels like she would needs extra security. I also think she would be a great farm dog and protective of property in that way. She's lived with 2 dogs and 2 cats, as well as 2 toddlers for a few years and I have not had any issues. She can be a grumpy old lady some times but for the most part, she's very pleasant and cuddly.

Story

Meet Renee Renee is one of our absolute staff favorites — and we can’t believe she’s still waiting for her person. She often gets overlooked because she seems scared and unsure in her kennel. The shelter environment just isn’t her comfort zone. But the moment you take her out? It’s like meeting a completely different dog. Outside the kennel, Renee transforms into a total lovebug. She’s a lap dog at heart, soaking up affection and bonding quickly with her people. She’s also an adventure buddy through and through — always ready to explore, go for a hike, take a car ride, or join you on whatever fun the day brings. Renee is incredibly smart — honestly, a little too smart for her own good! She listens beautifully, picks up on cues quickly, and truly wants to please. With her fantastic listening skills and eager-to-learn personality, she would thrive with someone who enjoys an active, engaged companion. Renee just needs someone to look past the shy kennel exterior and see the amazing, loyal, fun-loving dog she truly is. Once you do, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without her.

Story

Meet Max! Max came to the shelter on 02/28/2026 after his owner sadly passed away. It’s been a big change for him, but Max is doing his best and showing everyone what a good, loyal boy he is. Max is a very intelligent and active dog who thrives when he has something to do. If you throw a ball, Max will happily bring it back… and then sit there looking at you like, “That was great. Let’s do that again. Immediately.” Fetch is easily one of his favorite things in the world. He’s friendly, playful, and clearly enjoys spending time with people. Max is the type of dog who wants to be part of your life — whether that’s going for walks, playing in the yard, learning new tricks, or just hanging out nearby making sure you’re doing things correctly. Because he’s such a smart and energetic guy, he’ll do best with someone who enjoys keeping their dog mentally and physically engaged. In his previous home, Max was on anxiety medication, so his future family should be willing to continue working with their veterinarian to make sure he stays comfortable and supported. With the right routine and care, Max has all the potential to be an incredibly devoted companion. He’s a handsome, smart, and loving dog who just needs someone to help him start his next chapter. And if that chapter happens to include a lot of fetch, Max will consider that an excellent life decision. Max is available for adoption, so hurry in to meet him! 📍 Max is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 It is an application process. You can request one via 📧 dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov

Story

Meet Brooks!! This handsome hunk came in as a stray on 12/4/25, and we think he’s about 2 years old. Brooks is absolutely gorgeous — and a big guy — but no one has told him that! He has no idea how large and strong he is, which becomes very clear when he decides your lap is exactly where he belongs. Brooks hasn’t quite mastered personal space or polite manners yet, but he is smart and eager to learn. With guidance, structure, and someone willing to teach him, he’ll blossom into the well-mannered companion he’s meant to be. Brooks is available for adoption, so hurry in to meet this lovable goofball! Brooks is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 It is an application process — you can request an application at dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov
