Our New Shelter
Raise the woof!
Big Dreams
The Humane Society of Northern Kentucky dreams of a time when every animal will find a warm, safe, and loving home. While this dream may not be within our immediate reach, we do envision a shelter where every animal is comfortable, clean, healthy, and just one step away from his or her loving home.
Since 2000, the staff and volunteers of the Pendleton County Animal Shelter have tirelessly pursued these dreams and worked to make our shelter as comfortable as possible while giving homeless animals, who would otherwise be forgotten, a second chance for a happy life. But with limited space and an inefficient building this has not been an easy task. For this reason, we are pursuing a dream to do more for the animals of Pendleton County. The Humane Society of Northern Kentucky’s Capital Campaign (Raise the Woof) for a new shelter will be a significant undertaking.
The welfare of the County’s homeless pets has been placed in our hands. It is our duty to nurture and be good stewards, using the best possible judgments for the animals.
The Humane Society of Northern Kentucky is undertaking a building project, focusing on the animals in our care and offering appropriate space, healthy ventilation, and an environment that will reduce stress and showcase adoptable pets to increase their chances for adoption. Ours will be a place where prospective families meet clean, happy, and HOPEFUL animals.
We are asking you to share our dream of building our facility so that we may continue to offer quality care to the unwanted, abandoned, neglected, and abused animals of our area.
