Please help! We only have ONE open cage at the Stark County Sheriff’s Office – Dog Warden Division.

Our staff and volunteers pour their hearts into caring for every dog who comes through our doors. But what these dogs need most—what truly changes their lives—is a loving home.

If you’ve ever thought about adopting, now is the time. Come meet our wonderful dogs. Bring your family. You just might find your new best friend! 🐶❤️

When you adopt, you don’t just save one life, you make space for us to rescue another dog who needs help just as urgently. Your decision creates a ripple of hope.

Please share this post. Please visit us. Please help us give every dog the chance they deserve.

This beautiful girl is Maggie! 🥰 Maggie was one (of many) of The Dogs at the Stark County Dog Warden looking for a forever, loving home. Maggie's quiet and sweet disposition won over the staff while she was there, and she immediately stole the hearts of her new owners. Hopebridge RTA was so glad to meet all of them today and we hope to continue to be a part of their journey.

Our mission is to keep dogs off the street and out of shelters through education, support and training. We are here to take this journey with you!

To everyone who has opened their hearts and their home to a shelter dog in need...THANK YOU!❤️

🆘 There are 3 dogs needing out NOW 🆘
🚨PLEASE SHARE 🚨

Murph, CJ and Union are struggling with the long kennel hours. They have too much energy to be locked up 23 hours of the day. They will all need active and patient homes to decompress from the shelter stress. Time is of the essence for these pups. Please consider adopting ❤️

Murph has been passed around homes until he found himself in doggy jail. No one came to claim him and he has now been waiting 57 days for someone to say “he’s the one!” He loves walks, treats, knows basic commands and loves to use his brain on treat puzzles. He comes out hot but after about 15 minutes, he will calm down and focus. He will need grace to give him that time. He is approximately 2 years old and 50 pounds.

CJ is just now starting to get antsy in the kennel. He still listens with a firm “no” and can walk nicely if continuing to move forward. He will need an active home or a big backyard to run and fetch. He loves squeaky toys and is very loving once he gets some of that energy out. He is a young guy looking for a fun home full of adventure. He is approximately 1 year old and 40 pounds.

ADOPTED!!! 🎉 Union is a cattle dog that is all done spending long days in a kennel. Cattle dogs were made for running and herding on a farm! She is a young gal that isn’t getting the exercise or mental stimulation she needs. She came in with her sister and they have been waiting a long time to be adopted. While they like each other, they do not need to be adopted together. She has been showing some issues with other dogs, so a meet n greet is definitely needed. She is a jumping bean and would absolutely love a “job”. She is approximately 1 year old and 40 pounds.

PLEASE REMEMBER: Every dog comes with donated, FREE training sessions with local trainers: Cosmic K9 (2 sessions) and Hoperidge RTA (1 session). Adopters should research post-adoption decompression and the rule of 3s: 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn your routine and 3 months to start to feel at home..
