About this shelter

McMuttigan's Rescue Inc. in Powderly, KY

I am a Certified Dog Trainer through the Animal Behavior College and a behaviorist with over two years of experience volunteering in a prison dog training program. In addition to my training work, I assist dogs in need by providing care and support. I ensure that all dogs leaving my facility are fully vetted, tested for heartworm, and spayed or neutered. I work closely with the dogs before they are adopted to ensure they will be suitable family pets. I carefully match each dog with the right household, prioritizing the well-being of both the dog and the family, and I do not allow potential adopters to choose a dog that may have behavioral issues. My journey into dog training began in Alabama, where I helped my local Humane Society evaluate dogs that had been in the adoption process for extended periods. This experience highlighted the need for training, which became my mission: to transform unadopted dogs into wonderful companions. I am motivated by my passion for animal welfare rather than financial gain, and I serve as an unpaid volunteer dog trainer in our local prison program.

Adoption process

To begin the adoption process, an application must be submitted. After the application is received, all references will be checked and the application will be reviewed before any potential adopters are considered for one of the dogs. There is an adoption fee of $200.00, which covers veterinary care, training, and other related expenses. Additionally, adopters will be required to sign a contract that stipulates that no rescued dogs are to be placed in a shelter at any time.
