    Columbus Dog Connection is not a physical shelter, but rather a no-kill rescue organization that…read moresaves dogs from abandonment or abuse by placing them in foster homes until they are found permanent homes. They also take dogs scheduled for euthanasia away from over-populated humane societies and animal control shelters. The CDC website serves as a hub or network of humane organizations and adoption agencies. It represents loads of rescues and services throughout Ohio and links into lists of pets up for adoption, including those fostered specifically by CDC volunteers. It also provides links to adoptions events, reference phone numbers, and legisislative information. Local businesses and fundraisers help keep this fabulous non-profit organization afloat. Mingle with the Mutts is a popular 'mixer' for people and dogs at the Franklin County Dog Shelter (1731 Alum Creek Drive, Columbus 43207) on the first and third Sundays of the month. They take the Mingle outdoors to various parks and other venues during the summer months. It's a great way to see how the dogs interact and also help keep the shelter dogs socialized. The address listed above is the location to which you can send donations. It is not a physical shelter. If you have any questions, email the head honcho- Kellie Difrischia- KDifrischia@yahoo.com. She's a super sweet person with a huge heart for our canine friends.

    Unfortunately for the animals seeking a home, this rescue wants you to complete an application for…read moreapproval prior to meeting a dog. We found a dog we wanted to meet and were told to complete an application unless we.were to go to a sponsored meet and greet, which there was one scheduled the next day, only be told the dog we inquired about doesn't do well around other dogs in that environment. Then why post that dog "gets along well with other dogs.." The post should clearly say " doesn't do well in highly stimulative environment" in order to attract the right adopter. Maybe that explains why they can't understand why the dog hasn't been adopted after 3 years.

    Thank you, PAWS, for giving us our new best friend! It was a bit of a process but all worth it…read more Here's the deal, Yelp world... this is a volunteer organization. These people donate their time and homes to these dogs. They're nice people with a great background in animals. This means though that they're doing this on their own time. So, yes, communication can be tricky sometimes. It took us a few weeks to get our pup. But once we got the ball rolling, they were very helpful and moved to get us our dog as quickly as possible. To start, you fill out an application online. Once approved, you can do a home visit. After the home visit, you decide whether it's a fit. Then, you just have to make sure the pup is neutered/spayed and up to date on vaccinations. They do all this for you, which is great! The fee is $250 which I think is very reasonable. They give you all the paperwork then and a full report on your dog to ensure success. Overall, so glad we found our dog through PAWS!

    How can I give anything less than 5 stars to the rescue that likely saved our pup's life and then…read morewent on to introduce us to her? Two years ago, we decided to expand our family and since our cat hates all other felines...a pup it was. Our search began at petfinder.com which is how we found both our dog and Ladybugz K9 rescue. The family run rescue was very helpful, making sure to provide us with directions since their location seems to trick GPS. They work to get rescues from Amish puppy mills and from what I can tell, they do a fantastic job socializing the animals. In fact, when we walked into the area where the pups were, ours was excited to see us and standing on her two hind legs waving. Some of the other puppies were timid and it was explained that they had just been brought to the rescue the day before and they give them about 24 hours to get used to their surroundings and then they begin "hug therapy." In the two years since, we have been able to enjoy a happy, healthy, loveable dog...what could be better!

For years I refused to adopt a dog because i knew how much work went into them. Its just like having children. Long story short the time came to adopt a pup and I couldn't be happier! Roxie (rescue name Fiona) has been a blessing in my life. She just turned 3 in May and I can't imagine what life would be like without her. This rescue gave me a healthy active loving little girl on the fourth of July 2010 and to this day my little firecracker pup is spoiled rotten! I was told she was a pomeranian maltese - and it turned out she is pomeranian papillon which makes her even more fun!Thank you so much Ladybug K9 Rescue! I couldn't be happier
