This gorgeous guy has been on the run for the last 24 hours in the Copperfield neighborhood. He’s been quite elusive, darting away from everyone—until this afternoon, when a Good Samaritan was able to get him cornered in a fenced-in backyard. Our team was called out, and we were able to safely bring him in.

If this is your dog, please call us at 859-255-9033, extension 233.
We’d love to get him back home where he belongs!

Employee Spotlight: Meet Anna!

“Ever since I was a young child, I knew my calling was to work with animals. I just never knew how to fit that passion into my life — until I started my job in Animal Services three years ago.”

From helping the community search for missing pets to guiding lost animals on their journey back home, Anna says she finally feels like she’s making a real difference.

While it can be difficult to see what some animals have endured before arriving at the facility, the best part of her job is watching them transform with a little love, care, and medical attention.

At home, Anna is surrounded by the very thing she loves most — her own rescued family: two dogs, two cats, and a snake.

“I truly believe this job has given me purpose,” she says. “And I’m grateful for the incredible sense of friendship and family I’ve found here at Animal Control.”

We love having Anna on our team, and we thank her for her dedicated service to the community!

On their way to a call, Recruit Chess and Sergeant Riley spotted a young child near a dangerous stretch of New Circle Road. They acted instantly, stopping and keeping him safe until police arrived.

This is a reminder that some children—especially those on the autism spectrum, like this young boy—may not recognize danger, and how vital it is to have people like these officers watching out for them.

Thank you to everyone who helped keep him safe—and to our team, who never stops watching out for those who need a little extra help.

Last night, a Good Samaritan spotted a ferret on a solo adventure and brought it to our facility for safekeeping. If it’s yours, please give us a call at 859-255-9033, extension 233. Until then, we’ll keep this little critter safe, cozy, and snuggled!

Kimber decided to take himself on a trip to Kroger for a late-night snack — he just forgot he needed a human to accompany him!

Thankfully, a very kind police officer scooped him up and brought him to Animal Control for safekeeping.
Today, Kimber was happily reunited with his mom.

We love happy reunions — especially the tail-wagging kind!

Over the summer, Lexington Fayette Animal Care and Control received a complaint about a dog abandoned inside a residence on Osage Drive. With a search warrant in hand, our officers entered the home and discovered a sweet pit bull named Sunday—locked in a wire crate, underweight, dehydrated, and covered in her own excrement.

Sunday was immediately removed from the home and provided the care she desperately needed. We’re grateful we were able to get her to safety before it was too late.

A judge has since issued an arrest warrant for animal cruelty against her former owner, Aasia Perry. We are asking for the public’s help in locating her.

If you know the whereabouts of Aasia Perry, please contact our cruelty investigator at (859) 255-9033 ext. 229, or reach out to the police. Your information could be vital in ensuring accountability and justice for Sunday.
