About Our Rescue Group:

SAFE (Saving Animals From Euthanasia) @ WKCC (Western KY Correction Complex) is a program in which seven shelter dogs are matched with 14 inmate handlers for two months of training. They live with their trainers and learn how to be good companion animals. Since starting the program in March. 2011, over 80 dogs have found loving homes through this program. SAFE has also benefitted the inmates who have a sense of accomplishment for their part in saving the animals. We are told that morale in general has improved since this program began. Our group alos fosters homeless animals and tries to find them homes.

Come Meet our Pets:

WKCC (Western KY Correctional Complex) is located at 374 New Bethel Road, Fredonia, KY 42411. We have graduation ceremonies for the dogs every two months. We also partner with Creatures Great and Small out of Paducah, KY for adoption fairs at Petsmart. We have several dogs in foster as well.
