Boyd County Animal Control Shelter

This shelter calls themselves an “animal shelter” but doesn’t accept cats. Your Facebook Bio doesn’t align with your current values. “The shelter houses animals on stray hold, and those available for adoption.” What animals are you referring to only dogs?

They are an absolute JOKE! Have been called multiple times in almost 2 years by everyone in the neighborhood about nuisance dogs. They won't do anything!!! I'm sick and tired of it. These dogs have killed other pets and poses as if they were going to attack children and adults!!

Very nice staff. We adopted a beautiful dog who was well cared for

We adopted a three month old black and white lab mix almost a year ago to the day. She arrived with two other dogs, her siblings I assume, but she was the runt and the quietest so we picked her. They had not had a chance to cat test her- we have a cat at home (which we adopted from here as well!)- but they allowed us into the cat room with her to see how she reacted to the cats in there. We felt safe with her reaction to them and she has never even attempted to harm our cat or ANY cat. In fact, our cat almost bullies her, even though she's more than five times her size today! I appreciate how the employees allowed me to check how she'd react to cats, if they hadn't we wouldn't have her today. Her name is Ollie.

I adopted Thor....a/k/a Hawkeye from Boyd County Animal Shelter. I think they do a wonderful job showcasing each dog in pictures and video. I'm not a person who can go into the kennel and shop. Breaks my heart to bad. ...I'm sure there are other people out there the same way. The dogs are clean and no fleas. I have had several questions after the adoption and they were more than happy to answer. The fee is $75 and they come with a certificate for a free rabies shot and spay/neuter. Don't hesitate to adopt your next baby from Boyd County Animal Shelter!
