My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Freda. While I’m still gaining confidence I am a kind girl who is gentle spirited. I am eager to learn and just want to please people. And when I gazed lovingly at you, you can see that. I love treats, and chin scratches and KIDS. I LOVE kids! I am learning to walk on a leash but still need help understanding no on is going to hurt me. I hunker down because I can't help it. I just need someone to show me things are all right. I am uncertain around other pets so it would be best if I was an only dog. Note: Freda qualifies for a shelter discount due to her age of seven years old. She will be spayed before adoption.

More about this shelter

KPFL is a private, non-profit, no-kill volunteer organization operating strictly from donations, fundraising events & volunteer help. We are dedicated to the care of & finding life-long homes for the stray & abandoned pet population of South Lincoln County. KPFL has recently completed their new shelter in Libby, on County Shop Road. Therefore, we pay for food, supplies, vet care and also clean and maintain the shelter twice daily. We currently have a cooperative agreement with Lincoln County Animal Control to provide shelter to all non-aggressive dogs and cats from south Lincoln County until we find new homes for them. Because of space constraints, we also have pets housed in various foster homes throughout the communities of Libby & Troy. In addition to caring for pets we:
Aggressively promote spay/neuter programs and provide spay/neuter certificates.
Work to improve conditions and provide funding for projects at the local shelters and facilities.
Promote adoption of pets into humane and responsible homes.
Work to reduce euthanasia and end the tragedy of pet overpopulation (1370 pets euthanized in Lincoln county in 2000).
Promote responsible pet ownership and humane treatment of pets through education in schools, at area events, to civic groups, through radio, television and newspaper articles.
Help people keep their pets by providing behavior training, pet food, pet medical care funding, and pet fostering for people whose need is established.
Provide cat/dog food and cat litter for low income seniors at commodity distributions and for pet owners who are food pantry patrons.
