SPCA Cincinnati takes in dogs displaced by Hurricane Isaias

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - Tri-State organizations are helping lighten the load on those affected by Hurricane Isaias. SPCA Cincinnati has taken in dogs from impacted areas, and people may soon be able to adopt one.

Dogs arrive from Alabama

Seven dogs arrived in Cincinnati from Mobile, Alabama. The dogs were displaced on purpose to clear out shelters there so dogs separated from their families by the hurricane have a place to go.

Denise Jones with the SPCA said the displaced dogs are able to be sheltered and find their owners after the hurricane.

“They’re looking great, they sent us some really nice dogs,” Jones said.

Adoption process

Jones said the SPCA collaborates with other shelters to lighten their load, and the goal is to get the dogs adopted. The dogs will need to be evaluated before they’re available for adoption.

“We should know probably in two days,” Jones said.

Jones said the SPCA is covering the expenses for all of the dogs.

“If we didn’t take the dogs, we can’t free up the space and displaced dogs would just be on the streets with no one to take care of them,” Jones said.

Once the dogs have seen a veterinarian and receive a clean bill of health, they will all be available for adoption.
