No Kill Louisville

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.
