Looking for a way to make a difference for the dogs at the Morrow County Dog Shelter right now, today? Whether you have time, money, or just a social media account, there’s something you can do today to support the work being done. Here are some of the most helpful ways to get involved:
1. Donate
Financial donations go directly toward veterinary care, food, and other essentials for the dogs. Donations also fund enrichment projects at the shelter, like new play areas and more comfortable kennel areas. Just click the Donate button on our website—every dollar makes a difference.
2. Volunteer
The shelter is always in need of dedicated volunteers to help with cleaning, walking dogs, and giving the animals some much-needed attention. If you’re interested, stop by the shelter to fill out a volunteer application.
3. Share on Facebook
One of the simplest and most effective ways to help is by sharing posts about adoptable dogs. Getting the word out boosts each dog’s chance of finding a forever home. If you have a large social media following—or know someone who does—sharing is one of the best ways to get our dogs noticed and adopted. That’s the ultimate goal!
4. Donate Supplies
The shelter is always in need of essentials like dog food, treats, leashes, cleaning supplies, and blankets. One of the easiest ways to help is by purchasing items directly from the shelter’s Amazon Wish List—you can select what you’d like to donate, and it ships straight to them. If you prefer to shop locally, you can also drop off supplies during shelter hours.
5. Promote the Cause
Tell friends and family about the shelter, our website, and our mission. Word of mouth goes a long way—especially in small communities.
6. Support Events
Keep an eye on our page for upcoming fundraising events or donation drives. Your attendance, participation, or help spreading the word helps us reach more people.
