Kentucky River Animal Shelter

I adopted my “Missy” now Layla from New PAWS-abilities back in 2019. She originally was here prior to her transportation to Wisconsin where she was adopted. Here she is 6 years later from littler 121. She’s an amazing dog highly recommend adopting dogs that come from Kentucky River Animal Shelter!

They won't answer the phone. They're closed on the weekend. I waited for weeks to approve my adoption. I need to see if my app is good. And I want a male cat.

Came at 11 a.m on a Friday when they say they are open. Drove down and the gate was closed with someone just sitting there watching not opening the gate so that we could enter the facility. For a site that says they want to help animals, they sure stand in the way of allowing people looking to adopt to help.

Definitely adopt your next pet from the Kentucky River Animal Shelter! Such an amazing group of people and animals! The staff is kinda, caring, patient, compassionate and work their butts off seven days a week, EVERY day of the year!

Never been there but they gave my Winston (Curly) a second chance by sending him up to Chicago where I adopted him, I am forever grateful they rescued him, sent him up north and I was able to connect with him, he may be ah very finicky eater But a true joy.
