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.March 19, 2026, 12:16 am

Story
Obi is a 95 lb ox.  He is social and often times has zero respect for space. Obi will NEED and require obedience training.  While he does know sit he is not consistent with listening because he has the attention span of a fly.   Obi is a large boy----he can be reactive (barky) with other dogs so meet and greets with other dogs is required and must be scheduled in advance.  He has been neutered, vaccinated, wormed, heartworm tested negative, and is microchipped.  Due to his size and lack of access to be able to test him----we suggest a home with out cats.  It is unknown how he is with children BUT based on his jumping and energy we suspect he would be a candidate to knock down little ones.....so perhaps teenagers and older would be best. Familiarity with the breed is a plus.  He is a big boy, strong on lead and can be a bit overwhelming due to his size.   Please call ahead to schedule an appt to meet him.  Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt.

Story
Everybody, this is Tank! This handsome 70-pound boy, around 4 years old, has had more than his fair share of ups and downs. Through no fault of his own, Tank has experienced several changes in his living situation, and now he’s hoping to find the stability, love, and forever home he deserves. Here’s a look at Tank’s journey so far:August 2025: Tank arrived as a stray after getting loose while a family member was caring for him. We were recently able to get in touch with his original owner, who said they would come to reclaim him. Unfortunately, as of October 28, 2026, no one has come for him.November 2025: Tank went on a trial adoption, but he was returned due to separation anxiety and frequent barking that led to a dispute with a neighbor.January 2026: Tank was adopted and we hoped this would be the fresh start he needed!September 2026: Sadly, Tank was returned once again after his adopters lost their home.Despite all these changes, Tank deserves a chance to settle into a home where he can finally feel safe, secure, and loved for good. Tank is said to be good with dogs and kids! No cats, please!Tank is looking for someone willing to give him the patience, consistency, and commitment he needs to thrive. After so many changes, he deserves a family that won’t give up on him when life gets a little bumpy.Can you be Tank’s happy ending? Or do you know someone who might be the perfect match for this big, lovable guy?

Story
Good with female dogs 🚨🚨 ATTENTION EVERYONE 🚨🚨 Please stop what you are doing and prepare yourself… because ARLONG HAS ENTERED THE CHAT. Meet Arlong!! He came in as a stray on 1/27/26, and somehow no one has claimed this absolute gem of a dog. Their loss. HUGE opportunity for you. Arlong is the definition of “good vibes only.” He is super sweet, ridiculously friendly, and has the kind of face that makes you immediately start talking in a baby voice without even realizing it. Squeaky toys? Obsessed. Getting petted? Yes, please. Being your loyal, easy-going sidekick? Already packed and ready. He’s not dramatic. He’s not high maintenance. He’s just a solid, fun, happy dude who enjoys the simple things in life — a good squeak, some quality pets, and hanging out with his people like the charming gentleman he is. Arlong is the kind of dog who: • Makes friends in 0.3 seconds • Thinks every toy is the best toy ever • Will happily soak up all your affection • Is just plain FUN to be around He’s got that “effortlessly cool but also secretly a softie” energy. The total package. The whole deal. The best boy. Arlong is available for adoption, and honestly… someone needs to hurry before he gets scooped up. He is located at the Richland County Dog Shelter in Mansfield. 📞 419-774-5892 📧 dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov It is an application process, and you can request one via email. Don’t overthink this. Just come meet him. Your couch (and your squeaky toy collection) will thank you. 🐾
