CLEVELAND — City Dogs Cleveland's dog kennel is overflowing with adoptable dogs and they're looking for families and individuals who will help give these dogs forever homes.
According to a Facebook post by City Dogs Cleveland, they had 20 dogs arrive to their kennel Tuesday causing them to set up temporary crates to house dogs in their community room and staff offices. They currently have over 110 dogs up for adoption and have lowered adoption fees in an effort to give these dogs into the homes of loving families and ease the load at their kennel.
Adoption fees are just $61 which, according to the kennel, includes basic vaccinations, microchipping and a spay/neuter if needed.
They are also imploring those who have recently lost their dog to check their website where they have pictures of each dog they have received as a stray. If you see a potential match to your lost dog, call 216-664-3069.
They also gave some advice for owners with dogs at risk of running away on their Facebook post:
"KEEP YOUR DOG HOME - please do everything you can to keep your pets safely at home. We need to slow down the number of strays being found in our city. Double check gates and doors, keep pets on leash while out and about. Be proactive - make sure your pet is wearing up-to-date identification and is microchipped! Accidents happen, and if your dog does get loose, these forms of identification will make it easier for us (or a neighbor) to get your pet back home."
