Our Story
In 2005, the Stark County Dog Warden Department was labeled a 'high-kill' facility. Volunteer Margie Serri and Dog Warden employee Mike Evans initiated a transformative effort to transport dogs to shelters where they could find loving homes. By 2008, Friends of Stark Pound was established as a 501c3 organization, committed to reducing the homeless dog population through funding spay/neuter procedures and providing essential veterinary care.
