My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Ruger is an older fellow who came to us when his owner passed away from cancer. His siblings and he didn't have much medical attention or socialization as they were chained for quite some time. He is slowly learning what it means to be a dog but he is doing well in our prison program and is doing well with the other dogs. He needs a fenced in yard (no more chains!) and a loving family.

Ruger is now available for adoption to a good and loving home. If you have a lot of love to share with a best friend please adopt one of our wonderful pets. All pets are fully vetted. Transport is available.

More about this shelter

The Menifee County Animal Shelter located in Frenchburg, KY is a non-profit volunteer group that operates the county shelter. Before we started handling the shelter, almost all of the animals were killed on-site and buried. A small group of volunteers felt compelled to change this so we began to manage the shelter. We rescue unwanted, neglected and abused cats and dogs that would otherwise be euthanized or left homeless. Our mission is to rescue and dramatically enhance the lives of these animals through community education and by providing high qualify foster care and medical attention, including spay and neuter care, for those animals in need. Working with the community, we strive to change the lives of these animals by matching each pet to the best possible home based on their individual needs and personality. We are very limited in the number of acceptable pplacements in our area due to the large value of animals we serve at any one time - we usually have 70-90 animals and only 9 kennel runs so it is essential for us to work quickly with rescues out of state to avoid having to euthanize our animals.. In the past year we saved over 1200 animals. PA-based rescues, we are PA licensed.
