Meet Bear. He is a 4 year old border collie mix. Bear weighs 52 pounds. Can you give Bear his 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.

Prolific children’s author Troy Cummings talks with second graders in the library at Ada Schools on Monday.
Cummings has had a part in writing, and sometimes illustrating, 32 books. He is currently on a tour of northwest Ohio schools. The Greencastle, Ind.-based writer spoke with Ada children in grades 1-5.
The students have read several of his books and worked on art projects that correlate with Cumming’s books.
See samples below of the youngsters’ artwork...and the Balloon Goon.
