Story
Hello, my name is Zoey and I am a very sweet and friendly dog with lots of love to give! I am loyal and gentle and I get along with other dogs very well. I love to play and I'm also a curious little thing, but I'm a couch potato at heart and love a good snuggle. I'm smart and funny and love to make my humans happy! I'm young, so I am full of energy and ready for adventures, but I also know how to calm down and be a good girl. If you're looking for a furry friend who is fun and affectionate, look no further! I'm quiet and I only bark if strangers approach the house. I'm Zoey, and I'm ready to meet you, so please complete an application at https://www.cognitoforms.com/SaveOneSoul/SaveOneSoulAdoptionApplication Our adoption fee is only $180.00

Givin a min of introduction, he warms up to new people fairly quickly and will love them from then on out, he has been around a 4 year old his whole life and plays very well with him and has with any kids he’s met he’s just a big wiggly boy so sometimes he forgets his size ❤️ he’s the perfect partner for anyone who will give him lovins.

Story
I acquired Meenie during a trip to LMAS, when a lady came in to return her to the shelter; due to her disability she was unable to care for her. The shelter refused and said that they would euthanize Meenie. I decided that I would take Meenie and rehome her myself. Meenie is 1 yr old, she is very sweet, very high-energy and would do well with a young adult who has the time and patience that she needs. She really needs to have a yard where she can run and play. We intermittently let her and our dogs in and out throughout the day, it helps to burn her energy. She likes to go on walks, and she loves playing fetch. She gets along well with our pets; 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 1 bunny. She is very intelligent; she came to me knowing shake,sit, laydown, etc. I have continued to work with her as much as I am able to. I myself am a disabled veteran, and don't have the ability to give her the attention that she needs. She's such a sweet-girl, you will absolutely fall in love with her.

Story
Hello! I'm Reagan, a 4-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Hound mix who came to the Kentucky Humane Society because my previous owner could no longer care for me. I am a bit shy at first, but once we get to know each other, I will be your best companion. I get along well with children 5 years or older, however, I request to be the only four-legged friend in the home, as I love being the center of attention! I promise to fill your schedule with playful adventures and cozy cuddles. I am spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and ready to meet you today! I came to the Kentucky Humane Society because my owner could no longer care for me. I miss being in a home and have a lot of love to give.

Story
Even though his name suggests royalty, King is a pretty down to earth guy. He only asks for a soft spot to lay his head, a yard to zoom in, and a family to love him. This 2 year old Retriever mix came to the Kentucky Humane Society when his owner could no longer care for him. It took a bit for King to trust all these new people but once he warmed up we could see his silly personality. King loves to do zoomies in the yard and will happily entertain himself with all the smells. He will lean against you for pets and almost wiggle himself in half. King hasn't experienced living with dogs or cats, so we don't know how he will do. We encourage you to bring your pup for a meet and greet if you think King is the dog for you. King appears potty trained and loves going on car rides to the drive-thru. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.
