Meet Harlow. She is a 3 year old lab/great dane mix. She is house broken and spayed. Can you give Harlow her forever home?
To give a dog a forever home, contact the Hardin County dog shelter. It is located at 49 Jones Road on the west side of Kenton.
Hours: 9 am to 4 pm on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. Phone: 419-674-2209.
Generally, about 20 to 25 dogs are available for viewing.
The shelter is also the place to contact for giving up a dog, if you find a lost or stray dog, or if you come in contact with a vicious dog. It costs $20 to surrender a dog, which pays for deworming and immunizations for when it is rescued.
ODOT reports State Route 195 south of McGuffey is now open, but look for orange barrels, flaggers, or detours at these other three locations next week:
State Route 309 between the Allen County line and Kenton will be reduced to one lane through the work zone for resurfacing.
State Route 385, just west of Roundhead, will close July 9 for approximately five days for a culvert replacement. Traffic will be detoured onto state Route 196, state Route 67 and state Route 117 back to state Route 385.
