Rescue FAQs

We rescue dogs that are literally on death row. Either we get them out or they are euthanized because owners seldom rescue their dogs from this pound. The pound is not open to the public and so we as C.A.R.E. (Covington Animal Rescue Effort) are these dogs only hope! We rescue, place them in loving foster homes and get all vetting done. Each dog is spayed/neutered, all vaccinations up to date and dewormed before an adoption.
We rescue from the Covington City Pound which is not open to the public. The owners either claim their dogs or prior to our organization started in 2008, all dogs were euthanized. We have rescued almost 300 dogs in the past 2 years already.

Additional adoption info

We ask all adoptive families to go to our website at www.covingtonanimalrescueeffort.com and follow the adoption application process tab. You must give 2 references and a vet reference and be willing to do a home visit if necessary. The rescue fee is $125.00 this time.
