Hey friends!! In celebration of our Dog Warden's birthday, we are doing a food drive. Included is the Amazon link. If it does not work for you, please order the food and send it to:
Huron County Dog Warden
130 Shady Lane Dr #10,
Norwalk, Ohio 44857.
They also will accept donations during business hours M-F 8am-4:30pm. How many bags can we get sent? Hmmm. How about as many, if not more than, the DW's age.....50. Lol! Yes you can send other items, but dog food is the biggest need right now. Thank you!

Goodmorning Huron Co. Our department has had 6 (SIX) dogs in pounded within 1 (ONE) day. PLEASE TAKE EXTRA STEPS TO CONFINE YOUR DOGS! Leashes, Tie outs, being present with your dog while they are outside will all help with this issue. NONE ARE WEARING TAGS! Please put your county tags on your dogs collars. This is the FASTEST way to get the dog back to you without it possibly coming into the kennels... Please take extra steps to be responsible. If you are MISSING A DOG? Please contact us Monday morning or facebook message us so we know who to contact. If you are currently missing a dog please facebook message us or contact us with information so if we get called about the dog you can go pick the dog up.

Thank you for understanding. As a dog owner we need to make sure our fur babies are not running the roads where they could possible not come home. We need to do whats best for them. Thank you for taking the time to read this and we hope you have a great rest of your weekend!

I know reading comprehension went out the window a long time ago, but to see some of the comments by so called "educated" people are just ridiculous.
For one- the cat comments are over done! It is not the job now, nor has it ever been, of the DOG Warden to control or license felines.
For two- If you are not a repeat offender of having a dog at large, you have nothing to worry about. Now if you have a habit of letting your dog get loose repeatedly, get speeding tickets, OVI, drug related, stealing, anything that sends you to municipal court, etc... then yes, you will have an issue with the increase in MUNICIPAL COURT fees($75 to $150).
For three- This fee is NOT decided by the DW Office nor does any of it go to them. It's the Huron County Court System ONLY!! SMDH. ~Jenn

I know its a few extra bucks but please consider purchasing the Ohio State (medical fund) tag this year. This is the ONLY income they receive to help with medical cases that come in. There is NO money from their budget for these cases.

Hello Huron County. Do you want to make more of a difference this Holiday season? Maybe by purchasing something you already have to purchase for dog owners? Well you can! For an extra $5 per tag you can purchase an Ohio state dog tag and that $5 goes directly into our vet care for our dogs that come into the shelter.

Injured or sick strays do entered our kennels once in a while. We get the funds to help those strays from you guys purchasing these tags! Its a great purchase for a great cause. You can only purchase these tags at our department or the Auditors Department in Norwalk OH. So stop in soon and get those tags handled for the year of 2026!

Ohio State Tag with $5 donation is $27.75
We only take cash or check so please come prepared!
See ya soon!

Shelter Location: 130 Shady Lane Building E Norwalk OH 44857
