In honor of the new $7.3 million kennel, City Dogs is hosting a ribbon cutting ceremony tomorrow from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The event includes guided tours of the new facility, which are free and open to the public. Attendees can also meet the dogs, get free swag and even receive discounts on adoptions.
Some of the ceremony participants include Cleveland Kennel Manager, Colleen Siedlecki, Mayor, Frank G. Jackson, City Councilman, Matt Zone, members of the city council and anyone throughout the community who shares the love for dogs.
The features of the enhanced facility are a big step up from the old one, which was located on West 7th St. They include a more efficient layout for the convenience of volunteers, improved natural light and a comfortable atmosphere to support the health and wellness of the animals.
A new promotion is also kicking off tomorrow, with adoption fees getting lowered to $21 from March 7-17.

$7.3 million on a new dog kennel is COMPLETELY ridiculous…many homeless shelters are worse than dog kennels so bad even the homeless are afraid to stay there
Well, heres yet another example of Taxin Jacksons complete and utter waste of taxpayer funds!!!
Im surprised it didnt cost us taxpayers 7.3 billion to build!!! What about using one of the many dilapidated, abandoned, and run down buildings all over other parts of town!!!
Until this crook and thief Budish are finally recalled from office, and sent to jail, nothing will ever change around here except more and more waste of taxpayer funds!!!
Took the tour on Opening Day…it was quite impressive. Very clean-looking and sanitary.
There are even flush toilets for the disposal of waste by the cage-cleaning personel.
City Dogs folks appear to have done an excellent job…and they ain’t just a-woofin’…
