Meet Nugget, the lovable and versatile pup who will steal your heart! Nugget is an affectionate dog with a playful spirit and a gentle soul. Whether he's running around the yard with his dog friends or curling up on the couch for a cuddle, he can easily switch between being high-energy and laid-back. He absolutely loves to play, especially with other dogs, but is equally content lounging with his humans.

Nugget has a sweet disposition and gets along well with cats and kids, although due to his initial burst of energy when entering a room, he would do best in a home with older children who can handle his excitement. Once he settles, you’ll find he has nothing but love to give!

This charming boy thrives on attention and affection. Nugget is looking for a family who will shower him with the love he craves. If you're ready for a dog who's as fun as he is sweet, Nugget could be the perfect companion for you!

Our animals got to have an amazing Thanksgiving.

Thank you to our wonderful volunteers and staff!

We are so thankful for our Kenton County community.

11/28/2024

This holiday we have much to be thankful for, including the hundreds of people who've opened their homes this year to pets from our shelter. But we'd be remiss without giving an extra shoutout to a very special group - our rescue partners.

This year, nearly 700 animals have been pulled by our rescue partners. This not only allows animals in need to go where they can get the most focused care but also increases their chances for adoption. And to put in perspective just how monumental these partnerships have been this year, KCAS sent 359 animals total to rescues in 2023.

We're so grateful to those in our community for stepping up when we need them.

Meet Cheeto!

This sweet older gentleman is looking for a loving foster home where he can finally experience the care and kindness he deserves. Cheeto has been through a rough start in life, but you’d never guess it from his gentle and loving nature.

Despite his past, Cheeto is laid-back and calm, with a soft, dainty play style that other dogs appreciate. He’s also good with cats, making him a wonderful addition to a multi-pet household. While he hasn’t been around kids yet, his gentle personality suggests he’d do well with respectful children.

Cheeto does have some allergies that are affecting his paws, but with proper care and a little TLC, he’s already on the path to feeling better. All he needs now is a comfy spot to rest and a foster family to show him what love really looks like.

If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a sweet, resilient soul, Cheeto will repay you with endless gratitude and quiet companionship. Could you be his hero?

Stop in to foster or adopt today.
