Canine Cruelty Investigations

Home > Services > Animal Resource Center > Canine Cruelty Investigations

We respond to and investigate over 1200 reports of canine cruelty and neglect each year. Ohio State laws regarding this issue are poorly written and quite antiquated. In most cases charges are not filed. Much effort is given, however, to educating and working with the owner to assist in the care and comfort of the pet. Please contact us at 898-4457 whenever you are concerned over the welfare of a dog. Every legal attempt will be made to insure the pet's well-being.

Summer Care Tips for Your Pets

-During warm weather the inside of a vehicle can reach 120 degrees in a matter of minutes even when parked in the shade. Play it safe leave your pets cool & refreshed at home.

-Fresh water & shade is extremely important. Heavy panting, rapid pulse, glazed eyes, vomiting and/or deep red or purple tongue can be a sign of heat stroke or heat exhaustion.

-Limit outside exercise to early morning or evening hours when the temperatures aren't so high.

-Crowded summer events and pets do not mix well. The loud noises and crowds combined with the heat can be stressful and dangerous.

-Driving with a dog in the back of a pick-up truck is very dangerous. Flying debris can cause injury to your pet.
