Tri State K9 Lifeline, Inc.

Animal rescue in Ashland, KY

Tri-State K9 Lifeline will assist rescues and shelters by pulling, fostering, networking, transporting and LOVING shelter dogs in need.

We are a non-profit rescue group formed to help the neediest dogs and puppies in our area — the strays, the orphaned, the abandoned.

Our Mission Is…

To rescue and provide sanctuary for stray and abandoned dogs and puppies and do our best to secure for each of them permanent, loving, responsible homes.
To promote respect and compassion for all creatures through humane education.
To reduce pet overpopulation by increasing public awareness of the need to spay and neuter companion animals.

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donations made to Tri State K9 Lifeline are tax deductible to the extent allowable by law. All proceeds from donations go strictly toward the care of our dogs. We are a volunteer-run group and rely solely upon donations and fund raising as we receive no government funding.

We’re here to help you form a lifelong relationship with a friend and provide a life that, for some dogs, has never been known.

Rescue FAQs

We are a small group of dedicated volunteers based in Ashland, KY. We are located in what is referred to as the "Tri-State" area, as it is where WV, KY and OH meet. Given our location, we have access to assist needy dogs in all three states (within a certain mile radius). However, our primary focus is assisting dogs from our local shelter, The Boyd County Animal Control Shelter in Ashland, KY.

Additional adoption info

We facilitate lifelong relationships between our rescued animals and their forever families by reviewing a thorough application, contacting vet and personal references and conducting our meet and greet in the potential new family's home to insure the dog and human connection is a good match for everyone! Adoption fee is $200. All animals are spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, tested heartworm negative, treated for internal and external parasites and microchipped.
