Marion County Dog Shelter       OUR MISSION is to serve and protect the people and dogs of Marion County in a professional and courteous manner by:  Enforcing Marion County dog licensing and control ordinances.  Promoting the humane treatment of dogs. Providing shelter and care for stray dogs until they are reunited with their families or adopted. Educating our residents. Respecting the needs of our customers. What's New at Marion County Dog Shelter!     Meet Our Dog of the Week! Jiffy is a 1-year old Chihuahua Mix. He's a sweet and timid fella, who is searching for the special person he can bond with for life. He would do best in an adult-only home with folks who will spend time taking him for drives and walks, and providing him with a lap for snuggles.    Does Jiffy sound like a perfect match for your home? Check out his online profile and then come meet him today!       Dog & Shelter Tails! Check Out Our Amnesty Events with FREE Rabies Vaccinations!     We understand tough times and in this rough economy we're doing what we can to help you care for your dog.
