Mission Statement:  Carroll County Animal Shelter is currently equipped for housing stray dogs and puppies only. The facility does not house cats at this time.  Carroll County is assisted by Carroll County Animal Support, a local volunteer group, for adoptions from the shelter.  It took us 4 years to get a decent shelter built, but we did and it is beautiful.  Now the county has lost their contract with KY Humane and have nothing to do with the dogs.  We, Carroll Co Animal Support, presented a proposal to let us go in and run the shelter.  Start an adoption program, which they do not do and be there the hours that the law states, which they do not do and work with rescues to try and save as many dogs as we can.  We have explained what it would  cost them, which is no more than what they have in the budget now.   As of now they will be euthanizing all dogs after a 5 day hold period, if the dog is a stray.

Mission Statement:  Estill County Animal Shelter is a County-operated shelter in rural Kentucky. Besides our own small county, four other counties without shelters feed into ours:
Wolfe, Lee, Owsley and Jackson Counties. Last year we took in over 2100 dogs and 500 cats. We only have 10 all-weather kennels, so dogs who come into our shelter have only 3-5 days to find a home. Owner surrenders, puppies, cats, and kittens have even less time. EXTREMELY LOW adoption rate in this area  (2-4 each week). If a animal is on Petfinder, it should be considered "URGENT". There ARE cats/dogs that come into the shelter that will not be posted online.  Please contact the shelter NO LATER than Wednesdays if you are interested in adopting/fostering/pulling.  Animals are euthanized EVERY week on Thursday morning at 5:00 am.
Adoption:
$25. That includes a 7-way shot, license, and rabies (if old enough). Adoption fees can be made by credit card to our paypal account estillcoanimalshelter@yahoo.com but the fee is $28, to cover Paypal's fees. Puppies are $15. Some vet services are available for additional costs, including spay/neuter, heartworm test, and rabies vaccine. Call us at 606-723-3587 for more information.
Rescue:
Dogs: $25/$7.50 pull fee for approved rescues: Can be made to our paypal account estillcoanimalshelter@yahoo.com, but the fee is $28, to cover Paypal's fees. Puppies: free or reduced fee for rescues on dogs under 6 months of age. However, if your group would like to rescue puppies, we do ask that they be examined by a veterinarian at your expense (local) before being transported out of the county. Please e-mail or phone for additional information regarding our puppy policy. 
Vetting is the responsibility of the receiving rescue, though transportation can be provided within a reasonable distance.    The vet clinic must have credit card info on file before the dog(s) arrive.
Boarding:  Safe Haven Kennel (1401 Speedwell, Richmond, KY 40475) Bobby Snyder can pick up, take to vet and kennel for a discounted price of $8 per day until transport can be arranged.  PH: (859) 369-7915

Mission Statement: No Kill. Works non-stop to find safe rescues or loving homes for the adoptable animals that, for whatever unfortunate reason, end up at the animal shelter in Leitchfield, Kentucky. We're comprised COMPLETELY of volunteers who donate our time, money, and resources. Because of such conditions, we're constantly faced with an urgent need to move these wonderful pets to safety, in order to avoid the need for euthanasia simply due to lack of space.
Adoption: Out-of-state adoptions are allowed, but a home visit and references are required. Adoption fees: Cats and Kittens $55; Adult Dogs $85; Puppies $100. All animals adopted from us will be altered before placement and will receive their vaccinations and worming. The adoption fees only serve to cover such expenses. While the adoption fee for cats includes testing for FeLV/FIV, heartworm testing for dogs can be done for an additional expense.  You can apply online or you can email the shelter volunteers at dwhite@aggressiveonline.net or call 270-230-8839 to request that an adoption application be emailed or sent via regular mail to you.
Rescue:
Sponsored dogs are free to approved rescue groups. Contact us ASAP either via email at dwhite@aggressiveonline.net or via telephone at 270-230-8839. Rescues that are new to working with us would need to submit a list of their vet references, rescue references, an outline of their adoption policies, and reason(s) why they would ever euthanize a pet. Low cost vetting is available.

Transport: USUALLY AVAILABLE (often to Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and sometimes even Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont) PLEASE JUST ASK!!!
Sponsoring:
Involves making a donation in any amount to help cover the vetting needs of the shelter pet of your choice. If you would like to pay the full sponsorship fee for a cat or kitten, it costs $55, while adult dogs are $85, and puppies are $100. Sponsorships can also be in the form of little "care packages" that are sent to the pet(s) of your choice.
Fostering: 
We're always in need of additional foster homes to take these deserving animals into their care while they wait to be adopted or rescued. Please contact us either via email at dwhite@aggressiveonline.net or via telephone at 270-230-8839 if you'd like to open your heart and home to a foster pet. You can also fill out a volunteer foster application online and one of our other volunteers will get back to you as soon as possible.
Volunteering:
As the Grayson County Humane Society/SPCA is comprised of only four main volunteers and two occasional volunteers, we're always in need of extra hands to work on a wide variety of tasks. Please feel free to contact us if you'd like to help

Petfinder:  www.petfinder.com/shelters/KY51.html
Mission Statement:  Logan County Humane Society is an independent, non-profit agency. We are a kill shelter and must euthanize healthy animals every week. Our mission is to provide a clean, comfortable shelter for homeless, abused, lost, and impounded animals from our community; to place as many of these animals as possible in responsible, loving, permanent homes, humanely euthanize those not adopted; and to educate our community about compassionate, responsible care of companion animals.

Adoption: We adopt our companion animals (dogs and cats) with the expectation that they will be companions for life. You must be 21 years of age to adopt from our shelter. We do out-of-state adoptions.  All animals must be spayed/neutered before leaving the shelter. The timeline for the adoption approval process is usually one or two business days. If you are interested in one of our animals, please visit our website: www.logancountyhumanesociety.com to complete an application. Fees:
http://www.geocities.com/thelogancountyhumanesociety/adoptioninfo.html                       
Rescue: WE ARE A RESCUE FRIENDLY SHELTER. Please contact the shelter Director if you are a rescue and can provide assistance in placing any of our adoptable animals. We require vet references, and if you have a reference from other shelters you have worked with, we appreciate contact information for them also. All animals must be spayed/neutered before leaving the shelter. If you would like to use your own vet for spay/neuter, we won't require you to pay the fee, but all donations are appreciated.

Contact (Shelter):
lcas2@bellsouth.net or  Elin  (Rescue Coordinator) eljala@hotmail.com
Transport: We can possibly set up transport to meet you where ever you are able to drive to meet the transport. We try to do the first leg of the trip from here. It doesn't always work out because of scheduling conflicts, but we do try to do the first part.
Sponsoring/Donating: We need your help to properly care for the animals we receive here at the shelter. http://www.logancountyhumanesociety.com/donate.html
Fostering:  
We need foster homes for dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. The only requirements are a reference from a Veterinarian and any pet you already have will need to be current on all shots. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer please contact:  Delana Hoots - (270) 726-2186
Other Information: At the present time Humane Society members together with County Judge Executive John Guion are working on obtaining a grant in order to build a new and larger shelter. A large building is needed to accommodate the number of animals that come through the shelter each month.

Shelter Support
Mission Statement:  This organization funds and oversees the Adoptions Program at the Shelter, provides spay/neuter for shelter animals and low-cost spay/neuter surgeries for low income pet owners, offers behavioral modification and training information to help keep pets in their homes, offers humane education materials and visits to local schools, and pet therapy visits to nursing homes
Spay/Neuter:
Two programs designed to help owners who cannot afford regular prices for spay/neuter surgery. Our programs are intended for people on public assistance, disability, social security, or temporarily stressed financially. We also will help caretakers of feral cat colonies, or people who have out-of-control populations ("barn cats"), or other special circumstances. Cats - Spay/neuter surgery is done at our weekly clinic in Bardstown by veterinarians who come over from Versailles. The surgeries cost us approximately $25 for females and $15 for males, and we ask for a donation to cover expenses. Dogs - Our organization received grant money from the DJ&T Foundation in California so that we can offer vouchers to help with the cost of surgery at a private veterinary clinic. These vouchers are honored by all Bardstown veterinarians and by some clinics in surrounding counties.
Call 502-349-2082, ext 201
Donations: Online: We now accept donations online using secure PayPal.

These fees cover the cost of spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, heartworm testing, and any other costs accumulated to maintain the pet's health while in foster care.

Mission Statement: 
The Rowan County Dog Shelter is always full! Dogs are subject to being euthanized if the pound gets over capacity (this is a weekly occurrence). We are a very small group of caring people who try to save dogs (STAR--Saving the Dogs of Rowan). Our goal is to get dogs out of the pound and to the safety of a rescue or a new home.  When we foster a dog for more than a few days, another dog at the pound could die because we have no where to put it. We will only pull dogs from the pound that have a place to go.
Adoption:
If you want to adopt a dog the adoption fee will include vet/boarding costs. Before adopting a puppy or dog make sure that all family members are in agreement and will contribute to the care and training of your new family member. The adoption fee ($50) includes a rabies vaccination and spay/neuter (required for all adoptions). If you adopt your dog through STAR the adoption cost is equal to the cost of the pound fee plus any veterinarian care required to provide you with a healthy pet. STAR adoptions are subject to approval via references and home visits.
Rescue:
Rescue groups are most welcome however a reference check is required. Please contact us for additional information. Please do not ask us to hold dogs.

Mission Statement: 
We are an open admissions animal shelter for Shelby County. We are governed by the Shelby County Fiscal Court and operated by Shelby County tax dollars. We except all unwanted and stray animals in our county. We also perform all neglect and abuse investigations for Shelby County.
We try hard to ensure the animals adopted from our shelter are healthy and free of undesirable temperaments. We aggressively pursue solid adoptions and work with rescue groups, both purebred groups and generic. "NO KILL MISSION OF SHELBY COUNTY." We are working towards making Shelby County a no-kill county. In order to achieve this goal, Shelby County Humane Society is working with Shelby County Animal Shelter. The first step to achieving our no-kill goal is to have all animals at Shelby County Animal Shelter vetted and spayed/neutered. By doing this, the chances of adoptions and rescues increase significantly. This also will prevent accidental or unwanted litters of animals in the future.
Adoption: Anyone interested in adopting from our shelter should contact the shelter either by phone at 502-633-0009, e-mail us at animal.adopt@shelbycountykentucky.com or come to the shelter in person. We do have an adoption process including an application. We make every effort ensure a direct adoption is a good placement. We work with the potential adopter to find the right pet for their home.
All dogs will come with vaccinations including: Combo, Bordetella, Rabies, and all will be wormed
Rescue:  The shelter is rescue friendly and does not charge a pull fee for reputable rescue groups.
Anyone interested in adopting or rescuing an animal from our shelter should contact the shelter either by phone at 502-633-0009, e-mail us at animal.adopt@shelbycountykentucky.com or come to the shelter in person.

The Simpson County Animal Shelter presently has one Animal Control Officer and several volunteers from Friends of the Shelter. Friends of the Shelter has a contract with Simpson County to handle all adoptions and rescues of animals from the Simpson County Animal Shelter. Our group does NOT take in animals. We work strictly with the Simpson County Shelter to find homes and rescue for the animals brought to the shelter. The Simpson County Shelter only takes in animals from residents of Simpson County and/or the City of Franklin, KY. We have limited resources, but believe these animals deserve a chance at a forever home and wonderful life and you can make a difference in the lives of these animals! When you look at our site and notice a few dogs, please remember that we only have room for 16 dogs and 18 cats, and so we fill up quickly and have to make decisions based on room more so than larger shelters might.
Adoption: All pets will be spayed or neutered before going home! Our adoption fees are $75.00 for dogs/puppies and $60.00 for kittens and $50.00 for adult cats. This covers the spay or neuter surgery, first set of shots, deworming and rabies vaccination.  Those interested in adopting must complete an adoption application. Bullet Animal Adoption Application Bullet  We welcome out of state adopters; however, we do not arrange transport for adopted animals nor do we ship our animals at this time.
Rescue:  Rescue friendly

Fostering:
Foster homes are always needed. Call 270-776-2507
Volunteering: Volunteers are always needed for many jobs. Call 270-776-2507
Sponsoring/Donating: Even if you don't have room in your home but do have room in your heart you can help one of our homeless pets find a home of its own by sponsoring them! This means you pay part of the adoption fee, making it possible for them to be adopted much sooner! We survive soley on the basis of donations from caring people who want to help us help the animals at our community shelter. Our new shelter as we like to call it, was opened in July 2005 and we are always in need of monetary and product donations. All donations are tax deductible.
Other Information:
We are working with The Fix Foundation (another 501c3) to bring a low cost spay/neuter clinic to our community. We are currently raising money to help build a small building.
