All dogs listed as on HOLD are NOT available for viewing by the public, unless you are their owner. 
Once a dog is no longer on HOLD, it is able to be viewed by the public, participate in meet & greets, and be adopted!
All dogs listed as OWNER REDEEM ONLY, means they will be adopted by the person who found them if the owner doesnt come forward.  They will not be available for public adoption.
All dogs listed as MEDICAL HOLD, are not available for adoption until medically cleared by vet staff. 

Adoption cost per dog is $99.00 (puppies under 6 months of age are $150.00). We do adopt out of county/ state, the adoption fee will be $14 less because you will not receive a Stark dog license.  The adoption fee includes the following: Stark OH license good for this calendar year, DA2PP, Bordetella vaccine, Heartworm testing, dewormer, and spay/neuter.  Flea treatment will be provided if fleas are noticed.  All dogs will be spayed/neutered and microchipped before leaving the facility.  An e-collar may be purchased for $15.00.  Because most of our dogs were picked up as strays, we have no knowledge of any behavior or health issues.  Stray dogs are held for 72 hours so that the owners have a chance to redeem them. After that time they are vetted and placed up for adoption. We welcome and encourage the cross posting of our dogs pictures to increase adoptions.
