Meats was brought in as part of a cruelty case. He is currently being treated for two types of mange and he is severely emaciated! It is imperative that this boy gets out NOW. He deserves a chance at a happy and healthy life. Please consider donating on the Chip In below. We have rescues willing to take our discarded pets but we do not have the funds to vet and transport them without your help.

Who We Are
AARF is a group of volunteers dedicated to reducing the number of euthanized cats and dogs in the Ashland Kentucky area. Through generous donations, the volunteers are able to pay the county pull fee, provide needed vetting, INCLUDING ALTERATIONS, boarding and transport to approved rescues. The volunteers work closely with the county pound, vets and rescues to see these animals, slated for euthanasia, find a safe place to land before their forever homes are found. Please know we are not the pound. We work closely with the County Pound staff to move animals as quickly as possible. We will work diligently to see our list is updated but the pound cannot HOLD animals. They simply do not have room. The county pull fee must be paid and the animal must be sent directly to boarding to see the dog or cat is not destroyed.
Adopting a friend
Please do your part to reduce the number of unwanted animals by spaying and neutering your pets. All pets need a constant supply of fresh drinking water and nutritious meals. Regular exercise in a controled area is necessary for your pets health and behavior. AARF moves most of the pets it saves to rescues. When a private adoption is requested, an application must be approved ALONG with a home visit.
Please remember that dogs are not meant to live on the end of a chain!
