Story
Meet Georgia!! This classy gal strutted into the shelter as a stray on 10/24/25, and we think she’s about 5 years old. Don’t let her initial shyness fool you — Georgia warms up fast once she realizes you’re part of her fan club. We’re pretty sure she used to live the good life, because the moment she spotted the bench, she hopped right up like “Ah yes, my throne.” This girl clearly believes furniture is for queens — and she is most definitely one. 👑 Georgia is sweet, friendly, and absolutely powered by treats. She’s looking for a forever home with someone who appreciates her refined taste and snuggle potential. She is available for adoption now, so hurry in to meet her before someone else claims this couch-loving cutie! 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📩 Applications can be requested via dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov

Meet Snack Wrap!! Don’t let the name fool you—this big guy is more of a full combo meal than a snack. He came in as a stray on 9/20/25, and we think he’s about 5 years old. With his big, blocky head and strong build, he’s basically a walking tank of love (with a side of stubborn). Snack Wrap is handsome, confident, and knows what he wants—kind of like that friend who won’t share the remote. He’ll need someone who can handle his strength and appreciate his “I do what I want” personality. But underneath that tough-guy vibe, he’s really just looking for his people to give him the forever home he deserves. He’s available for adoption now, so hurry in—because a dog this unique doesn’t stay on the menu for long! 📍 Richland County Dog Shelter, Mansfield, OH 📞 419-774-5892 📧 Request an application: dogs@richlandcountyoh.gov
