Riley's Ark is named in honor of a beloved Staffordshire Bull Terrier who lived with us for 15 years before she succumbed to cancer. She loved and lived with all kinds of other animals. All pets live underfoot with other cats and dogs. We have limited space in our home, so until one is adopted, we cannot take another one in.

We are willing to meet with a potential adopter who has passed the screening process as far as 50 miles from the metro Louisville, Kentucky area, which includes Harrison, Orange, Washington, Lawrence, Jackson, Crawford, Clark, Floyd and Dubois Counties in Indiana, as well as Oldham, Jefferson, Bullit, Meade and Shelby Counties in Kentucky. We have had clients travel here to adopt from as far as four hours one way. You will find our rates quite reasonable compared to many rescues and shelters and our pets are kept under foot, so they are well socialized. We do not euthanize healthy pets. We also use foster homes, so if you are interested in fostering a pet, please contact us about that. If you can't adopt, please help us by donating at rileysark@gmail.com on PayPal. Our pets thank you.
Additional adoption info
There is an application form to be filled out, a personal interview when you meet the pet you're interested in, and a home visit may be required. A cash or PayPal non-refundable adoption donation helps to defray costs, since all pets have up-to-date vaccinations and are spayed or neutered before they can be adopted. Rates vary depending on what medical care was involved to get a pet ready for adoption. You will find that our rates are quite reasonable when compared to many rescues and shelters in the area. We will also work with you to make sure that your adoption gives you a forever companion. We do offer a foster to adopt program and a senior adoption special. Feel free to inquire.
