Cleveland Kennel Pet Adoption Fees Reduced For MLB All-Star Week

CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Kennel will reduce its adoption fees to $21 for MLB All-Star Week, the city of Cleveland announced this week.

“We have over 90 adoptable city dogs and new dogs are coming in every day,” said Colleen Siedlecki, manager of Animal Control Services. “Whether you’re looking for an athletic all-star, a patio pal, or a dog who has spent time in a foster home, we have Adoption Counselors available to help find the right match for your family.”

From July 6 to July 14, adoptable dogs can be taken home for the reduced fee. All dogs have been vaccinated, microchipped, spayed/neutered and come with a Cuyahoga County license.

Adoptable dogs can be viewed online. The kennel is located at 9203 Detroit Avenue. The facility is open Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.; and Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Walk-in adoptions are welcome, but appointments are also encouraged, the kennel said.

"Make an appointment to meet with an Adoption Counselor by emailing citydogs@city.cleveland.oh.us or by calling the adoption hotline at 216-664-3476," the city said on its website.
