**WE ARE CURRENTLY DOING ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. YOU MUST CALL TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING. PLEASE LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO REACH US. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING.- CCDP STAFF** Hi there. My name is Steven. I'm about 10 months old and I weigh about 45 lbs. I was surrendered to the pound as a pup in October. When i first came in, it was very apparent that I had never been treated well in my life. I was fearful of everything and I was struggling with fear based aggression. After many months of work and positive reinforcement, I am gaining confidence and I'm finally ready to start looking for the perfect family. I will make an absolutely wonderful dog for someone that is patient and will continue working with me on my training. I've met lots of people lately and I even had a night away from the pound with one of the employees and I have been such a good boy. I can be a little nervous around new people, but once I've met them and get to know them, I am a sweet boy. I even get to go on long off-leash walks here at the pound because I don't try running away from my people. I have been really good with all of the other dogs that I've met. Even if they don't like me, I don't act aggressively, I just walk away. I also do great with the 2 cats here at the pound. I will need some work with potty training, but I am very smart and should pick up on it very quickly. If you're looking for a great dog to add to your family, please consider adopting me. Our adoption fee is $152. We accept cash, check or credit/ debit cards for adoption fees. If you pay using a credit or debit card, a convenience fee of 2.39% will also be applied. If paying by check, you will need 2. One Check will be for the dog license, and one will be for your dog's adoption fee, which includes heartworm testing (for dogs 6 months of age old and older), parvo/distemper vaccine, rabies vaccine, bordetella vaccine, 3 days of panacur de-wormer, spay or neuter surgery, microchip, and a current Ohio dog license. We DO offer foster to adopt. (We will NOT accept cash for foster to adopt). We highly recommend you do a foster to adopt with your new dog if you are not 100% sure your new dog is going to work out in your home. Foster to adopt gives you a couple of weeks with the dog to make sure they are a good fit with your family before your payment is processed and the adoption is finalized. ALL DOGS/PUPPIES WILL BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED unless a health issue prohibits the surgery from being performed. Not all dogs posted for adoption are spayed/ neutered yet. If you're driving a long distance to adopt, please verify that the vetting process has been completed and dog you're interested in adopting is still available for adoption. The above mentioned vetting is all included in your adoption fee. The adoption fee and what is included in the adoption fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Adoptions MUST be done at the pound and in person as there is paperwork to fill out and an adoption contract that must be signed by the adopter. This means you must be willing to travel to our shelter to adopt. If the dog you're interested in adopting has medical conditions or injuries which require medical treatment, we ask that you help with the medical bills, in addition to their adoption fee if possible so we can continue to help the dogs coming in who need additional vet care. We are a county run shelter, therefore we cannot control our intake or the health or behavior of the dogs that come in to our shelter. Although we try our hardest to place all of our adoptable dogs, there are certain circumstances in which any dog in our care could be euthanized at any time and without further notice (IE: sudden untreatable medical condition or injury, temperament or behavioral problems which may not be apparent when the dog first arrives, etc.), therefore all dogs at our shelter should be considered urgent. We try our absolute hardest to never have to euthanize for space and have not had to do so for many years thanks to the ongoing support from the public and high adoption rates. Please remember; the adoption of a more highly adoptable dog will mean more time for the less adoptable dog in the kennel next to him! Shelter hours are Monday-Friday: 8 am- 4 pm. Saturday, Sunday and holidays: 8 am - 12 pm. Adoptions are always welcome any day of the week/ weekend and on holidays. We are here everyday to care for the dogs and the best way to make our day is to see our dogs go to loving families. There is nobody in the office on Saturday, Sunday or holidays, so therefore, we are unable to answer or return phone calls over the weekend. We are only staffed to take care of the dogs and do adoptions over the weekends/ on holidays. Can't adopt a dog? We would love to have more volunteers who are able to spend time with our dogs! The dogs LOVE going for walks and the socialization and exercise helps make the dogs more adoptable.

Tux is a very vocal high energy some type of lab mix. He enjoys tennis balls and loves to cuddle and be held. Unfortunately, I have another male dog who does not get along with Tux. Since this interaction, he has really had more issues with resource guarding his food. Without food, he is fine with my female dog. He does not like any male dogs and would benefit from a meet with a female if there is one prior to adoption. I feel terrible rehoming him as he is not the problem. He does have issues with demand barking, but this resolves once his need is met: petting, food, water, outside. I have been trying to rehome him for 2 year now with little interest, which truly breaks my heart because my household has remained divided and he's not getting the life he deserves. He also does not do well in a crate as he will rub his nose on the ground and become anxious. Please ask me any questions, I want to be as transparent about this good boy as I can so he goes somewhere he can really thrive.

Butchie is an adorable little guy who was adopted as a puppy and returned to rescue a year later. Butchie has been in boarding since Aug and really needs to find a family to love. He is good with kids but would recommend kids over 8 due to his energy levels which will settle down once he’s getting more exercise. Butchie is housebroken but may need a little brush up since he’s been in boarding for so long, he’s neutered, crate trained, utd on vaccines. Not sure how he is with cats but he can be cat tested. Butchie has cherry eye but vet recommended leaving it alone since he’s had to from puppyhood and it doesn’t bother him. Both Butchie and the rescue need to get this boy out of boarding and with a family asap. How could you resist that sweet face and those chunky little legs?

Hello! My name is Dawson! If my striking eyes don`t steal your heart first, my amazing personality will! I am oh so affectionate; I love cuddles, snuggles, hugs, kisses, pets, pats, scratchies, more cuddles, and a dash of extra snuggles too. I am very loving, goofy, and have some of the best zoomies you`ve ever seen! I love my favorite people, but it can take me a little bit to warm up to new strangers. I would love a home with humans to hug, and prefer if they are teens to adults. I play with dogs here and love it! I pick and choose which dogs are my friends (just like people do) and need to be in a home with a fenced yard so I have plenty of room to zoom and play. I like to chase small animals, so bigger dogs are better for me. I know sit, paw, and love to go on walks. Come meet me today and fall in love! If this dog has been successful in our play groups it is not a guarantee that a dog will be social with other dogs in their home or in public settings. Dogs are individuals and have personality conflicts, just like us. Play groups do not guarantee that territorial or resource guarding issues will not surface in the home. While play groups do help us get to know the dog`s better, once they are adopted their new environments and new relationships will influence their behavior in ways we cannot predict.The Adoption Fee Includes:- initial canine distemper combination vaccination- first worming or stool check- rabies vaccination (for animals over 3 months of age)- 24 Petwatch microchipping- flea treatment/preventative- spaying or neuteringAdoption fee: $135.00Per state law, ALL ADOPTERS must purchase a non-refundable 2022 dog license at time of adoption for any canine three months and older. The cost of the license is $7.00. (Senior Citizen or Person with Disability-$5.00)Leash and collar included

Hello! My name is Guiness. My journey to the shelter was a scary one; I was found abandoned in the woods, so terrified I wouldn`t even walk. When I got to the shelter, I was still so confused. How did I get here again? Why am I here? Who are all these people? I found one shelter friend first, then another, then another. I slowly began trusting the staff and they introduced me to some cool canine friends too. I am currently looking for a forever family who can understand where I came from, and dream with me for where I can someday be: the happiest dog who forgot all about the shelter. What the staff say about me:`Guiness is a special boy. It is pretty incredible to see photos and videos of when he first arrived, frozen and hunkered down. He did not know what to do with people paying him any kind of attention. He has had a rough life, we can tell, but he is still so full of life too! Guiness has the best zoomies, the funniest quirks, and the most beautiful face. He loves to be brushed, go on walks, and play in the sunshine. He needs someone who has been around fearful dogs before, who knows how to give him the best kind of unconditional love: patience. Guiness will always be Guiness, but we hope to see him continue coming out of his shell more and more.`*** I am currently in a foster home.
