Bo is the most underrated and overlooked dog. He’s equal parts shy guy, silly goose, and smarty pants. He’s shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’s super silly and playful. He loves to snuggle. His favorite pastime is showing off his tricks and getting rewarded with snacks. He’s a very smart boy that would love a family who would appreciate his looks, smarts, and sense of humor. He put his best paw forward for some pictures today despite the rainy weather. Let’s find him a furever home for Christmas and not let him spend yet another holiday season in the shelter. Come meet Bo at Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH 419-946-1747

Hi, I’m Music, the sweetest, smartest, friendliest dog you’ll ever meet.
Now, you may wonder how I ended up in a shelter. I went down the road with a few of my pups looking for a karaoke bar because of course I wanted to sing with them. I mean with a name like Music, go figure! Well somehow we got lost and a nice lady picked us all up and brought us here.
My pups got their forever homes, but I’m still waiting on my BFF.
Did you notice my ears? They’re my pride and joy, and they’re always tuned into the sound of fun and adventure. I’m not just a dog, I’m a companion, a confidante, and a furry friend. I’ve got a lot of love to give and a penchant for good tunes.
If you’re looking for a dog who can make you laugh and keep you singing, I’m your girl!
Come visit me at the Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH 419-946-1747.

On this we want you to meet Lyla. When you're dumped by your owners and you don't understand why... there are so many like her that have done nothing wrong and still end up homeless. Every dollar you donate goes to help dogs like Lyla, to keep their bellies full, shower them with treats to remind them they are still loved & wanted, toys to play with that some never had, beds to snuggle on and medicine when they need it, all while they wait to be adopted. Please help us, help them. It takes a village and we are so thankful for ours! Come meet Lyla! She is available for adoption at the Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH OH 419-946-1747.

Hi I’m Marco! No, no relation to that famous guy, Polo. You see actually my sense of direction is not all that great. That’s how I got lost and ended up here at the shelter! I’m a fun, friendly guy and I’m always up for an adventure. This year for Christmas I just really want my own family. The nice volunteer helped me write a letter to Santa. Do you think he’ll find a family for me? I sure hope so. I mean the girls here at the shelter sure are nice, but I’d like to kick it with some hoomans 24/7.
I’d love it if you’d come visit me at the Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH 419-946-1747. Who knows, maybe you’re the family for me!

“Hi there, I’m Velvet! I’m as sweet as candy and as cuddly as your favorite blanket. I love to play and make everyone around me smile with my funny antics. You know, I’ve been voted the most likely to blink in all my pictures, but that just adds to my charm, don’t you think? Oh, and did I mention my love for treats? I’m practically addicted to them! I even know how to sit and shake for them. And sometimes I get so excited my feet get happy and I start dancing. But don’t worry, I promise not to raid your pantry... much. I’m a friendly soul, just waiting for someone to share all this love with. So, why should you adopt me? Well, if you’re looking for a playful, loving, and funny companion, then look no further. I’m ready to fill your home with joy, laughter, and lots of love!”
You can meet this snugglebug at the Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead OH or call 419-946-1747 for more info on her. Please share velvet if she's not a match for your family so she can find her furever home.

Heyyy!! I'm Bean a Speckled Snuggle-Hound mix! I'm a young, sweet, and gentle soul. I'm friendly to everyone I meet, always greeting them with a wagging tail and a happy heart I enjoy the company of my fellow dogs and have a gentle, friendly nature that makes me a joy to be around. I'm proud of how clean I keep my kennel, it's a little thing that shows how much I care. Walking on a leash? I’m getting pretty good at it if I must say! I'm mildly playful, just enough to keep things fun, but I know when it's time to settle down. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share all my love and happiness. Adopting me means bringing home a loyal companion who will fill your days with joy, laughter, and unconditional love. I promise, we'll make the best of friends. Since I was a stray, we don’t know how I am with cats or kids. Come meet me at the Morrow County Dog Shelter, Mt. Gilead, OH or call 419-946-1747 for more info. Please share me, I’d love to have a family of my own.
