Euclid Pet Pals News and Info

The Township of Euclid, was one of the first communities to be established in the Western Reserve. A contract between Superintendent Moses Cleaveland and 41 employees of the Connecticut Land Company created the Euclid Survey Township. The men were members of a party sent to lay out and survey the estimated 3,000,000 acres of land purchased by the company the previous year for $1,200,000 from the State of Connecticut. Euclid, named after the Greek mathematician, was incorporated as a township in 1809. The township consisted of more than 35 square miles of land.


David Dille, a Virginia company lieutenant from the Revolutionary War, is credited as the founder of Euclid Township. He built a log cabin on the west bank of Euclid Creek. In those early years, the village was a farming community, subsisting on cash from crops of wheat and table grapes. The first industries were saltworks, sawmill, gristmill and ship building.

Euclid Pet Pals is a volunteer organization committed to keeping the Euclid Animal Shelter open by raising funds and recruiting dedicated, reliable volunteers.


Their mission is to protect and foster an environment that will give respect and compassion to all animals under the care of the Euclid Animal Shelter.

This can be achieved through educational programs and sound leadership.
