Good with dogs,
Story
Hi there, I’m Otto! I’m a 9-month-old hound pup. I am currently 42 lbs and should mature around 52 lbs. I have lots of cute little spots all over me, which are brown on my legs and black on my body. I came from a shelter in southern Ohio after I was found as a stray with my brothers, Freddy Mercury and Prongs (yes, we have an eclectic group of names). We had been dropped off in a “holler” together. All three of us are adoptable through PAWS now though. I love playing with all doggy friends, including running around with Freddy. I haven’t met a cat yet, but Prongs is good with them and I can be cat tested. I also haven’t met any children yet, but I should be fine with older children (unsure about young children yet). I walk well on leash and just started learning about potty and crate training. Sometimes I get hesitant in new environments that are loud, like when walking near traffic or crowds, so I could use a little more confidence building work. I saw some horses and was initially tentative, but I followed a brave dog friend past them. I went to a pond and jumped right in the water- that was fun. I am an outgoing and happy boy when I’m at home or in quieter places. Hope to meet you soon! Otto  Every PAWS dog is loved, vetted, and ready for a fresh start August 30, 2026, 11:26 pm

Story
Meet Patches, a high-energy goofball with the enthusiasm of a toddler on espresso and absolutely no understanding of how straight lines work. His leash-walking skills are currently classified as “a work in progress,” mostly because he likes to begin a walk, forget where he is going, take a surprise detour, remember his mission, and then zigzag back like he is solving an invisible maze only he can see.Patches is good with kids and full of personality. He is still trying to figure out the whole “other dogs exist” situation, but with practice, patience, and probably a few pep talks, he is getting there. He does not need a complete makeover—just a little polishing, a little guidance, and someone who appreciates a dog who brings his own entertainment package.If you are looking for a sweet, silly, energetic buddy who will keep you laughing, keep you moving, and occasionally make you question whether he is following the leash or the leash is following him, Patches may be your guy.

Story
Freddie Mercury is a 9 month old German short hair pointer mix. He is 40 pounds medium size . Brown, white and black ticking. He was a stray that came from a southern shelter. Freddie is doing pretty good on housetraining. Not a fan of the crate. But will go in with treats. He's also crated at night. Freddie would do best with a active person or family. A dog buddy who is medium to high energy since he likes to play would be idea for Freddie. Fenced in yard would better suited for him. Continued training since he's a pup still and very curious and still learning. He's also very affectionate and loves attention and cuddles. Unknown how he would be with cats. Older children, he would be better with. Supervise as always.

Good with dogs,

**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 Cookie. I'm about 2 years old and I weigh about 54 lbs. I was found as a stray between the Columbiana and New Waterford area and I was brought into the pound. I am a very sweet girl. I love people and I love getting attention and affection. I appear to have bene a house dog before making my way into the pound. I keep my kennel clean and I appear to be potty trained. I am quite a little escape artist. I can easily scale a 6 foot fence and will squeeze out of any gap at the top of that fence. Because of this, I would do best in a home where my family will leash walk me and/ or keep me on a tie out when I go outside to go potty. I have done well around the other dogs that I've met here at the pound and I like to play. If you're looking for a sweet 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.
