Kentucky Humane Society
Funded 2014-2020, 2023, 2024
The Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) is Kentucky’s largest animal adoption agency and provides proactive programs that help keep animals in their homes and out of shelters. These programs include a low-cost spay/neuter clinic, a mobile veterinary clinic, and Pet Resource Services, providing free counseling and resources to over 8,000 families annually.
Support from The Grey Muzzle Organization will allow KHS to help keep senior dogs healthy, happy, and in homes with the families who love them. Funds will provide financial aid to struggling families with senior dogs like Lola. This 10-year-old dog’s life was at risk when she developed pyometra (a deadly infection of the uterus) and sepsis. Lola’s family was distraught that they could not afford the costly surgery and hospitalization, so they reached out to KHS’ Pet Resource Services for help. KHS provided Lola with emergency surgery, fluids, antibiotics, and round-the-clock care. She is now healthy and back with her loving family.
