Central Ohio Dog Rescue League

Dog rescue in Hilliard, OH

We are an all volunteer small rescue that saves dogs and puppies from puppy mills and kill shelters. CODRL will also help find homes for dogs for families that can no longer keep them.

We do not have a shelter. Each dog is placed in a foster home where they are loved, socialized and treated as part of the family until we find them a forever home.

Many of our rescues need special care. We provide the love, training, and attention needed to get them ready for their forever home.

A lot goes in to saving a dog. We never know what we may encounter with each personality or health for each dog. We want to give them all a chance at a loving home. Many times, our adoption fees don't even cover the cost of that dog's needed vet care and foster care. So when we have a dog that doesn't take up all the funds for his adoption fee, the balance goes to help the other needy dogs with their extended health care needs.
