Simpson County Animal Shelter

Animal shelter in Franklin, KY

Our goal is to help find homes for all the animals that come into the Simpson County Animal Shelter. We work with the community to educate and promote spay/neuter initiatives.

We work with several Petco stores to help find homes for the many cats that enter our shelter. We participate in adoption events to place dogs and work with rescue groups to save as many lives as possible. We encourage our community to visit and adopt and our community leaders to stand with us in making this shelter a success in saving lives instead of euthanizing. We are a small shelter (16 dog runs) to serve a county of 17,000 and often that can be very challenging.
