Click to see all of the amazing dogs and pups waiting patiently for adoptive moms and dads. New adoptables are added daily. Adoptable dogs are heartworm tested, microchipped, spayed/neutered, and vaccinated. Some dogs are already crate trained, housebroken and have completed sessions of professional training. The cost of adoption is $61 (or less if they are running a special) and includes their collar and a one year county license, if you live in Cuyahoga County. You do not need to live in the county or Ohio to adopt, but in person meet and greets are required.

THE CLEVELAND KENNEL IS FULL AND NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Record numbers of dogs are arriving at the City of Cleveland Kennel. As an open intake shelter, they have limited space, but are required to take in all strays found in the city.
When we work together, we can increase the number of pets reunited with their owners, adopted and keep more dogs in good homes.
FOSTER A DOG
Fostering a dog can save a life, but isn't a lifelong commitment. It requires you to provide a safe home temporarily, until a forever family is found. In most cases the rescue organization covers all costs related to vetting and care. If you fall in love, you can can apply to adopt your foster. This is critical for dogs who need specialized medical treatment and those who are scared or stressed in a kennel setting. Click here to learn more about fostering.
