I'm ready to meet YOU!

Chowder is a big, bearded gentleman who wears his scruff like a badge of honor. He’s a middle-aged guy with an easygoing charm, happiest when someone pauses to appreciate his very distinguished facial hair. He enjoys meeting people, leaning in with that soft, earnest look that makes it hard not to fall for him. If you’re looking for a handsome companion with award-worthy whiskers, Chowder is ready to ladle out the love.

All adoptable pets are spayed/neutered (or scheduled), vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to go home today! No pre-application or appointment needed—just bring a valid ID and walk in. Our adoption fees are among the lowest in Cincinnati!

To meet our animals, visit our Northside shelters any day from 1–6pm. If listed as foster, email [email protected] to schedule a meet and greet. Adopting an adult dog with resident dogs or kids at home? Bring them along to ensure it’s a perfect match.
