Louisville Metro Animal Services

A friend of mine does dog rescue work, and I'm trying to help where I can. I no longer live in Kentucky, but I think people should know what's going on with Grant County...

First off, the shelter is run by inmates. For quite awhile, they didn't even try to adopt off dogs that were dropped there. They simply had the vet come once a month and kill them all. That's the way they operated. Two great women started volunteering and actually found HOMES for many of the dogs (imagine!) despite the shelter's inconvenient hours and general lack of interest.

Now, here's the emergency: On June 4th or 5th, they're having a spay/neuter clinic. They need the cages that the animals currently occupy, so their solution is to kill them all. Because they need space. For one day. If you can take a dog for a day, you can save a life... My friend is going to board all of the dogs who don't find a temporary home. If you can help with that, that would be GREAT, too (that's what I plan to do). The next day there will be space at the shelter again, so there's no permanent commitment.

It just seems like a horrible shame to put down all of these healthy dogs because they need space for one day. If you can help, DM me, and I'll give you additional info.

Thanks!
