June is Adopt-a-Pet
Month
The Darke County Commissioners have issued a proclamation making June
Adopt-A-Pet Month. The slogan is “Adopt don’t Shop”. This is in
conjunction with the Darke County Animal Shelter and the Darke County
Humane Society.
Darke County is fortunate to have two facilities where cats and dogs
can be adopted. One is the Darke County Animal Shelter, located on
County Home Rd., just beyond the Sheriffs Department. The second is the
Darke County Humane Society, located on St. Rt. 49 north, across from
the ball fields.
Together, we want to make our community aware of the many homeless pets
in our County. Currently, there are many cats and dogs housed in both
Shelters waiting for a good home. When looking for a new pet for your
home, remember the many lovable pets available at both locations.
Our goal is No More Homeless Pets and this can only be realized by the
responsible practice of spay/neuter.
