Sheriff Jason K. Landers will be participating in the upcoming “Paws for a Cause” event. “The community’s support of this event has been great and should be a fun time,” states Sheriff Landers. “Paulding County Dog Warden Jared Renollet has been fortunate to have volunteers assuring the county’s dogs are properly taken care of and finding homes. Events like this one will enable these animals to receive the attention they need.”
For the year of 2014 the Paulding County Dog Kennel has helped place 134 dogs into new homes or no kill rescue centers. Through the help of the kennel Facebook page, an additional 154 dogs have been reunited with their owners. These are fantastic numbers that we should all be very proud of. This has been a team effort and we want to continue into 2015 with the same success. “Friends of the Paulding County Dog Kennel” (pending 501c3) is a new organization which has formed to fundraise for the shelter dogs’ medical care, transport assistance and miscellaneous needs of the shelter dogs. They have some great ideas in the future of applying for grants and assisting with spay & neuter cost just to name a few.
In conjunction with the Paulding County Sheriff’s Office, Friends of the Paulding County Dog Kennel is hosting their first fundraiser called “Paws for a Cause”. This is a designer purse bingo event that will be held at Grant’s Catering in Antwerp on Saturday, April 25th. The support from the public has been fantastic and they have sold out. They are putting the final touches on this event.
Follow the great things they are doing on their Facebook page “Friends of the Paulding County Dog Kennel”.
