Spay and Neuter!
The best thing you can do is SPAY and NEUTER your pets. By
ensuring that your animals do not have unwanted litters and by
adopting rather than purchasing your new best friend, you will make
a direct and lasting impact - helping SOS of Ohio to reduce the
homeless pet population one spay or neuter at a time.
Volunteer at SOS of Ohio!
There are plenty of opportunities to help at SOS of Ohio. From
recovering animals from sugery to making surgical packs to cleaning
kennels - every little bit helps! And, for those who want to be
less "hands on" with the animals, you can always volunteer in the
front office or at special events.
Send an E-mail
to our Volunteer Coordinator for more information!

Donate!
As a nonprofit organization, SOS of Ohio depends on donations
from supporters like you. You can help end pet overpopulation today
by making a donation. Give a fully tax-deductible donation on our
Donate! page.
Wish List!
Another way to help is by donating items from our Wish List. By
donating these items, you'll help SOS of Ohio save on supplies and
allow us to apply our resources toward the animals we serve.

Purchase a Pet License Plate!
Proceeds from the sale of these plates will go to
the Ohio Pet Fund, a nonprofit corporation. Money in
the fund is used to support programs for the spaying and neutering
of dogs and cats for adoption from Ohio shelters and nonprofit
organizations, and for those pets whose owners are unable to afford
its cost.
For more information about the project and how you
can purchase a plate, visit www.petsohio.com.
Adopt!
While SOS of Ohio is not an animal shelter, we do work closely
with over 40 nonprofit animal rescue groups. Many of the animals
that receive our services are awaiting adoption and are the result
of pet owners who neglected to spay and neuter their animals.
If you're thinking of adding a pet to your family, here are five
reasons to adopt your new best friend.
1. You'll save a life
2. You'll get a healthy pet
3. You'll save money
4. You'll feel better
5. You won't be supporting puppy mills and pet stores
