"Doggie Doo"

Rescue Groups and Animal Shelters

The main purpose of the Doggie Doo is to raise funding for local pet shelters, raise awareness of the plight of homeless dogs, and get people interested in adopting one of the many dogs available. Last year, 49 rescue groups/shelter attended and 42 dogs were adopted as a result of the event! This is a wonderful way to showcase your adoptable dogs and acquire donations for your group.

Rescue Organizations and Shelters will be provided 20'x20' spaces at no charge to the group. Set-up time will be available from 8-10:00 A.M. on the day of the event, Saturday, September 20, 2008.

Rescue groups/shelters desiring to participate must complete the "Rescue Group Application and Agreement Form", and submit it no later than August 1, 2008. Submission details can be found on the form. Please note that this year, for the safety of all animals in attendance, we are notifying animal shelters/rescue groups and individuals attending that any and all relinquishment transactions must be held outside the purview of the Doggie Doo event, i.e., before or after the event and/or not at the event locale (Tappan Square) during the time the event is being held.

Rescue groups and other organizations attending will be listed on this web page as forms are received (see list below). Check back often - new information for the 2008 Doggie Doo is arriving daily!

Local animal shelters/rescue organizations - those of Lorain County and those who have benefited from Doggie Doo funds dispersal in the past - are encouraged to submit an "Application for a 2008 Doggie Doo Grant". This year, we are using the Grant Application process to ensure equity in the dispersal of funds received through sponsorships and vendor fees.
