“Our goal is always to
help as many pets as possible
find their new forever homes.
It becomes even more special
around the holidays,” said Dr.
Debbie Johnson, director of
operations at TAHS. “Just because
the ASPCA Challenge
is over, we haven’t lost the
momentum of finding new
homes for the animals in our
care and we’d love to see the
shelter as empty as possible,
especially for the holidays.”
Temporary foster volunteers
also are needed. TAHS
is currently collecting names
of people who are willing to
help. Anyone who can foster

Now is the time to check your mailbox to ensure that it
will withstand the winter snows. The City of Perrysburg
will not repair any mailboxes which are damaged
as a result of snow and/or ice or
any other object dispersed by the
snowplow. It is the homeowners’ responsibility
to maintain their mailbox
to withstand the rigors of a winter of
snow. Mailboxes should not overhang
any curb nor pavement surfaces
used as part of the travel
lanes. The City will only replace/repair
mailboxes that
are actually hit by the snowplow
but will not repair any mailboxes which overhang
the curb or edge of pavement.
