Spring is a season of fresh starts!Whether you’re ready to adopt or simply want to help a dog take a break from the kennels for the weekend, this event is for you. You do not need to live in Franklin County to participate.
Beginning Friday, April 10th, we’re inviting community members to take an adoptable shelter dog home for a Spring Sleepover Weekend.
This time outside of the kennels allows our dogs the opportunity to stretch their legs, enjoy new experiences, soak up all the extra love, and show us their true personalities outside the shelter.
🎒 How it works
Host a dog for a weekend (or longer!) We provide all supplies. You provide a comfy home, the snuggles, and lots of love.
📆 Shelter Dog Pickups begin: Friday, April 10th at 11am.
📆 Shelter Dog Returns begin: Sunday, April 12th at 9am.
📍Location: 4340 Tamarack Blvd, Columbus, OH 43229
