On Wednesday, April 26, Kenton County Animal Services (KCAS) is lowering the price of adoptions for dogs and puppies from $120 to $25. From noon to 4 p.m., prospective adopters can stop by KCAS to search for a new fluffy friend.
“We are about to enter the shelter’s busy intake season,” said director Kelsey Maccombs. “We are hoping to find homes for as many dogs and puppies as possible to prepare space for future intake. This allows us to continue to help and serve the animals in our community and find them safe and loving homes.”
Kenton County Animal Services is located at 1020 Mary Laidley Road, Covington. Find more information at kentoncounty.org/155/Adopt-a-Pet.

Age: 3 years old / Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross Mastiff / Sex: Male
”He would do best in a home with older children only due to their personality and demeanor. We want to make sure they mesh perfectly in their new home. We would suggest other dogs and/or children meet them prior to being adopted because we want to make sure he does not overwhelm them. He will need an active family that can work all of his energy out, a tired dog is a good dog after all. He will need to be kenneled when home alone, due to his anxiety from being away from his people, he tends to chew to pass the time.” — Kenton County Animal Services Photo: Kenton County Animal ServicesIan
