Friends of Wood County Dog Shelter (FOWCDS) is a small, 501c3 non-profit organization, formed in August of 2014. We work strictly with the Wood County Dog Shelter, concentrating on adoptable dogs that are repeatedly passed over, such as seniors, dogs with medical issues and those who have come from an environment believed to be detrimental to their welfare.
We operate solely on the generosity of donors, as well as the occasional fundraiser; ALL monies received from either if used for the benefit of the dogs in our care. We are also in need of foster families, willing to foster a dog until adoption.
