Animal rescue in Lexington, KY

We have been involved in animal rescue throughout our lives. It grieves us to see so many animals euthanized annually. We try to provide shelter to those we can help. At the present time, our shelter is full so we have no room for additional rescues at this time. We are trying to place a select group of dogs at this time. Thanks for your love of animals.

Rescue FAQs

We have been involved in creature rescue for about 25 years as a nonprofit group. During these years, we have cared for and provided shelter for many pets who have no future elsewhere. We do try to place those that will make great companions. Some are suitable to owners who have no other pets. We will not adopt to owners who wish to keep their pets outside. We do screen all candidates and ask for references. We only wish to make sure that our pets get great loving homes.

Additional adoption info

There is a $75 adoption fee on dogs at present. This includes neuter/spay and vaccinations.
