THANK YOU Wapakoneta WaterPark for a super fun night! Our girl Carmen (adoptable) and her friend Whuzi (not adoptable) had a blast! Thank you for the wonderful supply donations as well as monetary, they will be put to good use!

Carmen is a 3 year old, spayed female, Newfoundland/Poodle. She is very sweet and friendly. Does well with other animals (as we saw last night) as well as children that are respectful to animals and take their time with them. She came from a home where the children were not nice to her, so she is gets nervous if they go to fast. Come meet her! She has been at the shelter way too long!

Meet Barnaby! This sweet little fella is a 1 year old, brown tabby, neutered male. Barnaby was found by our shed back in April of this year looking for food. He is a very sweet gentle cat who's just a little timid at first. He is quite affectionate once he gets to know you. He definitely needs a home who can let him decompress and come around on his terms.

For more info on Barnaby please call 419-738-7808 or visit our website https://www.achs-pets.com/adoptapp.html to fill out an application. You can also visit our petfinder for more adoptable pets.

Meet Momma! She may be sassy but she sure is cute!
Momma is a 7 year old spayed female, tortie/tabby aka a torbie.
She has been here since March of this year and is still on the search for her forever home. Momma is very sweet and loves pets, but she can get over overstimulated at times. She will let you know when she's had enough attention and needs a break. Momma does well with other cats and older children, we are unsure on dogs.
You'll usually see Momma on her cat post in the middle of the room(It's where she feels powerful and can show her sassiness).

For more info on Momma please call 419-738-7808 or visit our website https://www.achs-pets.com/adoptapp.html to fill out an application. You can also visit our petfinder for more adoptable pets.

August 3rd - August 9th Buy the Week is brought to you by Grandma Jean Roos in honor of Natalie Fischer for graduating from the University of Denver with a Masters of Arts in Social Work. Natalie graduated on June 13th. Congratulations!!

School is just around the corner, who needs a buddy to keep them company while the kids are away? Rooster it is!! He was adopted from us a year ago, no fault to him, his owners moved into a smaller home with no yard to run! So here he is, back with us. He is a 1 year old, neutered and up to date on shots, beagle mix. He knows some commands, but being a young dog, he doesn't always do them. He just needs a fun family to love him and let him be a beagle!

Meet Sugar and Kitty!
Sugar and Kitty are two of our longer term older kitties, who would love a home they can call their own. We would love to see these beautiful girls in a home to live out the rest of their lives. They do not have to go together.
They both prefer to not be held, as they like their feet on the floor.
Sugar is a 9 year old, DSH, dilute tortoiseshell, spayed female
Kitty is a 7 year old DSH, brown tabby, spayed female.

Sugar always looks unamused in her photos but don't let that fool you, she is very sweet cat. She can be a little independent at times. She can be shy at first but warms up with time, but once she gets to know you she can be quite affectionate. She does love treats and wet food.
Kitty is petite princess, that loves her tall cat trees and stealing comfy blankets. She can be shy at first but warms up with time. She loves being pet but will let you know when she's had enough. Kitty would love a home where she can lounge around on nice big soft cat beds.

For more info on Sugar and Kitty please call 419-738-7808 or visit our website https://www.achs-pets.com/adoptapp.html to fill out an application. You can also visit our petfinder for more adoptable pets.

We would like to keep everyone up to date on what's going on with Mingus, our sweet boy that is paralyzed in his back legs. It has been a slow process, but we are doing everything we can do at this point.
Day 1, after discovering him unable to walk, Mingus was taken immediately to the vet for a consult, then to another vet for x-rays. Once the results of the x-rays were back he was scheduled for a visit with a Neurologist at Med Vet in Columbus. He has been on kennel rest, as suggested by the vet, getting regular baths to keep him from getting any scalding on his skin, a healthy diet, and lots of love.
On Thursday, July 31st, Deb and another worker Kris, took Mingus to Columbus for his visit. He was seen by the Neurologist and then by Physical Therapy. We were told that he either had a spinal stroke or has bruised/ruptured his spine. Diagnosis is Myelopathy T3 - L3. He is unlikely to walk again. :( Physical Therapy showed us some exercises that we can do with him. He is doing what is called "spinal walking" (a type of gait exhibited by some dogs with spinal cord injuries, where they can move their hind legs reflexively, even without conscious brain control). With the therapy, the reflexive walking could improve but he will never have full control of his back legs. Med Vet was also gracious enough to donate a wheelchair for him to use once his bed rest is complete.
Our hearts are heavy for Mingus. He is only 2 years old and one of the sweetest fur-babies you could meet. Please keep Mingus and all of at the Humane Society in your prayers.

Have you ever wanted an almost 100lb lap dog? One that doesn't quite understand personal space and drools a bit (quite a bit). Then get ready to meet Segar! Segar is a 3 year Cane Corso mix, who believes he's a lap dog. He loves being with you whether you're taking a walk or cuddling on the couch, he just wants to be with you. Segar is very smart and catches on to tricks easily!
Please help us get this big baby into his forever home!

Unfortunately Segar was dumped in our kennels over a year ago, so we don't have much on his past. Segar does not prefer men most of the time and he does not do well with small dogs and cats. He will need to meet any dog in your home currently.

For more info on Segar, please call 419-738-7808 or visit our website https://www.achs-pets.com/adoptapp.html to fill out an application. It does take us 3-5 days to go over applications but will try to get back with you as quickly as we can.
**ALL adoptions begin with a submitted adoption application, we will schedule a meet & greet once it has been approved.
