Salli Tschantz

Dog Kennel Manager

 

Salli is our true dog whisperer at the Humane Society- she is dogs best friend. When she was little, she was well known in the neighborhood because she visited everyone’s dogs and cats. There was always a special connection between her and animals. She attended NC State and Ohio State and received her degree in social welfare. She worked at Mansfield City Schools as a special education bus driver for 25 years and has worked at the Humane Society for 6 years. She is a mother to 3 sons and her 3 dogs (Elvis, Karma and Bunny) and a grandmother to 3 grandsons and 2 granddaughters.

At the shelter, Salli spends most of her days with all of our dogs. She considers all of them to be her dogs until they find their forever home. In her words, “I need them as much as they need me.”

Ashley Goetz

Kennel Attendant

 

If you recognize the face, it may be because you remember her from when she worked here several years ago. Or maybe you’ve seen her at Phillips Animal Hospital, where she works as a receptionist. Or at Marco’s Pizza, where she is a manager. Ashley Goetz joined the staff at HSRC (again) in 2022 and is currently a kennel attendant and humane agent.

A native of Mansfield, Ashley has always been passionate about rescue and animal welfare. She is also a rockstar at fostering itty bitty kittens. When she’s not at the shelter, Ashley can be found working one of her many other jobs, or at some live music event, possibly dying her hair a wacky shade of the rainbow, getting (yet) another tattoo, or hanging out at home with her furry family members, to include husband Fernando.
