Our MISSION,
Collaborating with a network of volunteers and community partners we strive to save and improve the lives of homeless and abandoned pets who reside in our county shelters; placing them into DREAM's foster program for rehabilitation when there is a foster home/family available.. in preparation for their adoption into a forever home. And we help manage the overpopulation of pets by providing partial funding (when available) for SPAY and NEUTERS of dogs.

Did you know ?
EVERY MONTH... there are LOW COST FELINE clinics in Miami County (TROY),
and Darke County Humane Society (GREENVILLE),
Most OHIO county shelters are frequently over capacity; numerous puppy mills
and back yard breeders in OHIO are contributing factors to the overpopulation. County shelters were established for a short-term housing of pets, never long term housing
or caretaking. It takes a community to FIX the problem of overpopulation;
SPAYing and NEUTERing will REDUCE and STOP over-population and keeps pets healthy ! Visit the RESOURCE page for Low Cost spay/neuter options AND to learn how
DREAM HELPS you with the cost to SPAY or NEUTER your pet !
