Did you know that new Hope Fund animals are added to our website nearly every week? You can see a list of most of the animals the Hope Fund has helped by clicking here. There have been many new additions in a short time, including Wylie Kylie, Victoria, Reese, Abby, and Herb.
For an extra feel-good, check out our Hope Springs Eternal page. You can see the happy endings of our Hope Fund animals once they have been adopted.
Thanks again for your continuous support of the Hope Fund!
Oh! Speaking of Hope, be sure to pick up a copy of Louisville Tails magazine! They are free and can be found at hundreds of locations all over the city. Guess who is gracing this month's cover? Hope the superstar! Check out this amazing article written by No Kill Louisville's very own Jessica Reid. (You might want to have some tissues handy, because it really is an incredible story).

Our Fellow Animal Lovers!
It might not feel like it, but spring is just around the corner...which means it's gonna be raining cats and dogs soon! Warmer temperatures mean optimal conditions for romantic evenings for our outdoor companions. Romantic evenings lead to offspring, and countless animals end up being killed, just because there aren't enough homes. Never forget, prevention is the best medicine!
Not only have we started our own initiative, 28 Days of Spay, but their are TONS of other organizations that offer low cost options. If you or someone you know are low income, or just need assistance in spaying or neutering your companion animal, please take advantage of these wonderful programs here. Keep in mind, the S.N.I.P. clinic offers FREE Pit Bull spay/neuters, and very cheap Feral Cat Packages at $40! Tell all your friends!
And if you live in Southern Indiana, Sharon at Woodstock North will be glad to assist you in low cost options. Their number is (812) 282-8059.
More spays, less killing. It's that simple

Hello NKL'ers!!
You all may have already heard of Goodsearch.com, but if you haven't, here's a quick explanation: Goodsearch.com is an online search engine like Google, but with a twist. Every search raises money for a charity! You have control over which registered charity you would like to raise money for in your searches. And, you guessed it, No Kill Louisville is now a registered charity!
This has the potential to be tremendously successful for NKL. But we need as many people as possible to use Goodsearch and to name No Kill Louisville as their charity of choice. Please share this with your friends and family and encourage them to support NKL in this very easy way, and encourage them to pass this on to their friends & family as well. The Goodsearch website also has tips on how to spread the word. Take a look at the "toolbar" that you can download to your web browser. That way, you will never forget to use Goodsearch for all your internet searches!
No Kill Louisville is also registered with Goodshop.com and iGive.com - both sites will donate a percentage of your online purchases at hundreds of partner stores, like Amazon.com, Best Buy, etc. etc. to your charity of choice. Another easy way to help NKL while doing things you already do!
And last but definitely not least, we are proud to be Coco's Canine Cookies' designated charity! 20% of all purchases will benefit NKL. Yummy treats for your dog AND a donation to No Kill Louisville?? What could be better than that! Click here to visit the Coco's Canine Cookie's website!
Thank you for helping us get the word out!

Last Chance Highway, a new series on Animal Planet is set to air it's first episode on Saturday, June 19 at 8pm ET/PT. This new show will focus on a small group of dog rescuers in the Southeastern U.S who save homeless and unwanted dogs and help them find wonderful homes through cross-country transport. The rescuers featured in the show include Shelly Bookwalter, a real estate agent who rescues dogs in all of her spare time and pays for their vet care out-of-pocket, and Kyle Peterson, the owner and operator of a commercial pet transport service. Bookwalter and Peterson, along with several others, work together to make new lives for dogs in need.
This show will bring much needed attention to the animal rescue world. Many people have never heard of rescue transport, even though it plays a crucial role in saving the lives of thousands of animals each year. Last Chance Highway gives viewers a chance to see this world up close and personal. Be sure to watch (or set your DVR and watch later!) this Saturday, June 19 at 8pm ET. After you've seen the episode, come back to NKL's website to comment and discuss with fellow viewers.
