Shelby County Animal Shelter

The Shelby County Animal Shelter is located at 266 Kentucky Street, Shelbyville, KY, 40065. We are an open admissions animal shelter for Shelby County. We are governed by the Shelby County Fiscal Court and operated by Shelby County tax dollars. We accept all unwanted and stray animals in our county. We also perfom all neglect and abuse investigations for Shelby County. The animals at our shelter are from a random source. We try hard to ensure the animals adopted from our shelter are healthy and free of undesirable temperments. We aggressively pursue solid adoptions and work with rescue groups, both purebred groups and generic. We do not charge a pull fee for reputable rescue groups. Receiving rescues will be responsible for all vetting and transport of the animal(s) being pulled.
