Licking County Dog Shelter & Adoption Center
Our Mission
The Licking County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center is dedicated to finding loving homes for dogs in need. We are committed to providing a safe and caring environment for every animal that comes through our doors.
Our Commitment to Community
Beyond providing temporary shelter, our mission includes promoting responsible pet ownership through active education and community outreach. With the generous support of our neighbors, we make a tangible difference in the lives of the dogs in our care every single day.
How We Help
Our facility serves as a central hub for dog care and adoption, operating with a team led by Chief Larry Williams and Assistant Chief Jeremy Grant. We provide a structured, caring environment where dogs can wait comfortably until they find their perfect matches.
Your Role in Our Journey
We believe that every adoption is the start of a wonderful, joyful partnership. By choosing to adopt rather than shop, you play a vital role in our mission to ensure that every dog in Licking County receives the loving, permanent home they deserve.
