Fulton County Humane Society - Archbold, Ohio

After losing my beloved lab last fall I finally decided to take the leap and get another dog. I knew this time I wanted to adopt a dog but was concerned about getting the right dog. I knew I wanted a older dog that gets along with other dogs, will travel with me and hopefully house broken. I submitted a application in hopes I would get called to come see a little lab mix they had. After talking to the kind person on the phone she told me about another dog that might be a better fit for what I was looking. She sent a couple of photos and I was in my car to go see her.
I met Lily and I knew within 5 minutes I wanted her. She was the perfect dog for me. I have had Lily for one week now and I know in my heart that my sweet Ellie sent Lily to me.
Every person at FCHS was so kind, knowledgeable and you could tell they truly cared about their mission. The facility was also so nice and clean.

My husband and I recently adopted a dog from this shelter. I have adopted dogs my entire life, and have never seen such a comfortable, thorough shelter.

The staff is so personable, communicative and supportive. They gave us plenty of background on the dog before making the drive. Once we arrived, they gave us over an hour to make sure he was a good fit for our other dog and family.

After arriving home, they reached out to see how things were going. If I contact them with questions, they respond promptly. We are so happy with our choice!

We live almost two hours from the shelter. Despite the distance, we would do it all over again. This place is top notch!

I started volunteering at FCHS on the dog side. I am amazed at the care those sweet dogs receive! They get excellent vet care, amazing food, bones from the butcher, bone broth, toys and lots of treats!!! The kennels are cleaned constantly and the dogs are let out to run and play several times a day!!! Their bedding and blankets are continuously cleaned and changed too. They just added a longer fenced in grassy area with shade trees that is phenomenal!!! Please Adopt! Don't Shop! There are beautiful dogs and puppies that need you and they are ready to give you their all!!!

I thank these folks for giving Clover and me a chance together!!! She's such a sweet pooch and happy to add her to my family. Definitely keeping her all tuckered out and she ensures I get some GREAT sleep at night too!

Apply in advance for a fur baby if you're on a tight schedule, Clover was freshly spayed (tummy hair still growing back), and have one visit left for some shots. The folder they gave me has everything needed.

They run on donations - if you have some things you don't need consider donating. Or maybe make some treats for the animals there. Be considerate of allergies of course.

In hindsight I wish I would have asked when Clover normally takes her first bathroom break of the day. Whoops! Getting her on a schedule took me a couple of days but I think we nailed it! Make sure you ask in advance to avoid a clean up.

The owner was FANTASTIC! We LOVE our newest family member! With Covid-19, many of the shelters are closed and difficult to get into, but they were great!!! Cannot say enough about how happy we are that we made the trip to Fulton County (from Toledo).

We adopted our little Chihuahua about 6 months ago. The process was easy and very friendly staff. The place was spotless and the animals were well cared for. We love our little Daisy and so thankful for her. She's part of our family.

Adopted ‘ Elvis’ about 2 years ago. He chose us after our Orie passed. He was so determined to get our attention and it has been a match made in heaven. He and his sister Elliemae have traveled to Florida and now Alabama. Always making new friends! Highly recommend this humane society and everyone who works/volunteers there
