Save One Soul

Save One Soul was founded in July of 2016 by a group of friends who a share a love of dogs and a desire to help un-owned and shelter animals. Shelters and rescues do a very good job at adopting young and healthy dogs to the public, and there are organizations targeting cases of severe neglect and abuse. However, dogs with low to moderate illnesses and injuries, are frequently deemed not adoptable by shelters, and these dogs all too often get euthanized. It is our goal to save and rehabilitate these dogs by securing veterinary treatment and foster homes until they are ready for adoption.

Rescue FAQs

"Save-One-Soul (SOS) is a Louisville, KY based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that works towards improving the quality of life and welfare of pets in the Louisville and surrounding areas by providing veterinary care to un-owned or shelter animals that are in the most urgent need."

Additional adoption info

Prior to adopting any animals, you must complete Save One Soul’s adoption application, and go through the entire approval process, including a reference check and a home visit. The approval process is very thorough and can take a couple of weeks to complete. Our adoption fee of $150.00 is payable at the time the adoption gets finalized.

If you have dogs on your own, we verify with your veterinarian that your dogs are up to date on their vaccinations for: parvo, distemper, rabies and bordatella. Titer tests, showing adequate protection, are also acceptable. Providing your dog with flea and heartworm protection shows responsible dog ownership, and we do therefore check into this as part of our routine approval process.

It is our goal to make each and every single adoption experience a great one. We will do our best to determine that we make a great match the first time.
