VOLUNTEER DE-TAILS
Purrs and puppy kisses to Donna and Hailey Lane, dedicated animal enrichment
volunteers! This duo has been volunteering at KHS since January of this year, giving
treats, toys and love to all of the animals in the shelter as they await their forever home.
The adoptions staff would like to thank Katie Putnuff for assisting with the adoption
matchmaker program. Since the beginning of the year, Katie has volunteered more than
40 hours with KHS, helping potential adopters find the perfect match for their next pet.
The behavior department extends their thanks to all of the behavior trainers, but would
like to give a special thanks to Heike Purdon. Heike has been volunteering with
the KHS behavior department for more than seven years and is currently helping the
department by teaching extra Manners for Life and Feisty Fido classes. KHS is lucky to
have longtime volunteers like her!
The S.N.I.P. Clinic would like to spotlight volunteer Rebecca Kelly. Rebecca assists
in the office answering phones and scheduling appointments and also with recovery,
helping vet staff as animals finish their surgery. She also put together a binder of helpful
reference information for other office volunteers to use. She is extremely professional
and friendly and has been a great asset to the clinic.
The Kentucky Humane Society relies on the generosity of our wonderful volunteers. From
canine coaches to foster care parents, we couldn’t do it without you!

ASK THE EXPERTS
KHS Staff Answer Your Questions
Q. I’ve been wanting to take my dog out to the park for walks now that the weather
is so lovely. Bruno is really friendly with other dogs and usually comes back when I
call him. Is it ok to let him off leash to play in our public parks?
A. We have a great park system in Louisville and it is wonderful when dog owners
take advantage of it. However, there are some rules of “doggie etiquette” that
BY THE NUMBERS
(March 2011 - May 2011)
everyone should follow so that all patrons can enjoy our public spaces.
1,527
All dogs must be kept on-leash in public. Leash laws exist for public safety. Even
cats and dogs were adopted
at one of our nine permanent
adoption sites. 173 pets found
homes during our March Mania
adoption special March 12-20.
if your dog is friendly, there is no guarantee that all the other dogs you encounter
on a walk share that trait. For some dogs, it can be very scary to be confined on a
leash while a loose dog runs up. This can increase the leashed dog’s anxiety and
can even lead to a fight. Additionally, many people are uncomfortable with dogs
and may react fearfully if approached by an unknown dog.
There are great, safe outlets for your dog to play off-leash. Consider a membership
with the Louisville Dog Run Association. You will have access to safe, enclosed,
off-leash play areas that are frequented by scores of friendly dogs every day. As an
added bonus, you can be sure that any dogs you meet there are up to date on all
their vaccinations.
Just as a reminder, any time you take your dog to a public space for a walk, be sure
to bring bags to clean up your dog’s waste. It is also a great idea to bring water and
a bowl in order to keep your pet hydrated. Finally, consider enrolling in a positive
reinforcement based training class in order to teach your dog loose leash walking
skills so that your outings are safe and enjoyable for you as well as for your furry
friend.

FROM THE DESK OF
Lori Kane Redmon, President-CEO
Dear Friend,
Let me begin by saying, “Thank you.” As a private, non-profit that does not depend
on city, state or federal tax dollars, we could not do our work without your support.
If you’ve followed the news lately, you’re probably aware of our decision not to bid
for the contract to run Louisville Metro Animal Services (LMAS). Before I explain
our decision, I want to address the negativity that has unnecessarily clouded the
atmosphere. Public in-fighting, motive-questioning and name-calling by animal
groups does not help the creatures we want to save. I’ve tried to stay above the fray, not just to protect the good reputation of KHS but, more important, the animals that will be hurt if the public grows weary of sniping by people they
rightly feel should be more worried about dogs and cats than turf battles. Groups like Alley Cat Advocates or Saving
Sunny among many others and the hundreds of volunteers who help everywhere all have this in common: We love
animals. We may have different goals and means of achieving them, but we should never forget that common ground.
After a great deal of deliberation, KHS chose not to bid for LMAS for several reasons: We didn’t believe the city had
a sustainable facilities plan; we were concerned about the lack of an end date for the LMAS’s admittedly inadequate
Manslick facility and no defined plan to raise money for another facility; and the lack of time to implement a plan for
the short-term use of Manslick as well as the appropriate handling of animals (including lifestock and wildlife) in the
current structure.
Instead, we will continue to strengthen our relationship with LMAS and pursue positive relationship with other animal
groups. We will continue to transfer animals from LMAS to our nine adoption sites. We will continue to evaluate animals at LMAS facilities and we will continue reducing the number of dogs and cats sent to all Louisville-area shelters
by offering low-cost spay and neuter services to our community. As the old saying goes, you can get a lot accomplished
when you don’t worry about who gets the credit. We have so many strong organizations and committed individuals in
the Louisville and Southern Indiana area – may the rest of 2011 and beyond see us do an even better job of working
together for the sake of our beloved animals and the communities we serve.
Sincerely,
Lori Redman
President, Kentucky Humane Society

Main Campus Grand Reopening
The public gathered at the recently renovated Kentucky Humane Society Main Campus on May 14 to view and tour our beautiful
and newly renovated facility for its Grand Reopening! The $2.3 million construction project had been underway for nearly two
years, as animals and staff members alike were shuffled around to accommodate construction.
All of the time spent under construction is well worth it now, as attendees of the Grand Reopening could clearly see. Animals are
now housed in areas with better ventilation systems and more easily cleaned cages. Several “cat colonies” are available so that
the kitties can openly roam and stretch their legs. Even the lobby and adoption area have been improved. The area is more open
and welcoming, and the old carpet was removed and replaced with more sensible (for an animal shelter) laminate flooring.
The KHS Leadership Team proudly cut the ribbon on the improved Main Campus and invited the public for tours of the facility,
kids’ activites, demonstrations, promotions and more! We are thrilled the public can see how far we have come and how well the
animals are treated as soon as they enter our doors.
If you still haven’t seen visited the “new” Main Campus, please come by to take a look – and maybe even take home a new fourlegged friend as well!
Special thanks to 102.3 The Max for helping us bring people to our doors.

17th Waggin’ Trail Walk for the Animals
Raises Over $90,000!
The 17th Annual Waggin’ Trail Walk for the Animals was a success yet again, with
almost 600 runners and walkers participating in the event! With your generous help,
KHS raised over $90,000 to support our life-saving mission programs of adoption,
spay/neuter and education. And we had a great time doing it with games, contests,
music, amazing vendors and adorable adoptable animals! Dogs of every shape and
size were there – from Maltese puppies to mutts – to complete the walk in support of
the animals.
Congratulations go to “Jamie’s Team” from KFC/YUM! Brands for being our top

Taking on the ASPCA $100K Challenge!
The Kentucky Humane Society is one of 50 shelters in the nation gearing up to take on the
ASPCA $100K Challenge! In a short three month period - August to October - we’ve set
the agressive goal to save at least 300 more lives than we did in those same three months
last year. If we have a greater increase in lives saved than the other 49 contestants, we win
$100,000 to continue our proactive, lifesaving work. In the coming month, we’ll roll-out
our plan to increase adoptions and help more pets find loving, permanent homes. But we
can’t do this without your help! Help us spread the word about the adoption option and
encourage your family, friends and co-workers to visit our shelters and adoption sites to
become involved. Your support will help us achieve this goal!

Animal groups come together to help a
special dog find her special family
Elsie was a sweet but aloof American Bulldog lost in a sea of animals at Louisville
Metro Animal Services. Pure white and completely deaf but with lots of energy to
spare, Elsie would have been difficult to adopt into an appropriate home able to
deal with her unique issues. Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) Behavior Leader Kat
Rooks saw Elsie as a diamond in the rough and transferred her to KHS for additional
training and to be fostered.
Kat began to harness and focus Elsie’s energy with some basic behavior training.
Since she wasn’t able to utilize her usual clicker training method due to Elsie’s lack
of hearing, Kat instead used a hand signal when she exhibited positive behavior in
place of the usual “click.”
“Elsie caught on quite quickly to the hand signals related to her good behavior,” says Kat. “I do exactly the same thing I would do
when clicker training. She exhibits the desired behavior, I give her the hand signal (click) and she gets a treat!”
While working on her training, Kat fostered Elsie in her office so that she could receive more personal care. With her big
lumbering legs and the energy of a puppy (even at two-years-old), Elsie was quite the handful! But she quickly became a staff
favorite as everyone helped her learn to be the best pup she could be. While KHS was waiting for placement with a bulldog
rescue group, Saving Sunny volunteers heard about this sweet girl and knew of a possible perfect home for her. Saving Sunny put
Kat in touch with Amanda Meyer, who had been actively looking for a playmate for her young Pit Bull.
“We had met with a few other dogs and it just didn’t seem to be a fit,” Amanda said. “As soon as we came to the Humane Society
that day and saw Elsie, we fell in love.”
Amanda and her husband John have many other rescues in their home, including two dogs (Hailey, a Pit Bull, and Blythe, a
Border Collie mix), four cats and a 17-year-old horse! Elsie and Hailey have become fast friends and are perfect playmates! Blythe
is in her golden years at 11-years-old and Elsie has learned that perhaps she is rarely in the mood for playtime. She has also made
a game of playfully chasing the four kitties around the house, though Amanda and John are teaching her that this isn’t the greatest
idea either.
“We’re also working with her so that she can learn ASL (American Sign Language) signs for going outside and other things,”
Amanda said. She can relate to Elsie’s disability as she is half deaf and blind herself. Her ex-fiancé fired a gun at her head, leaving
her completely deaf and blind on her right side. But she tremendously survived the incident and, because of it, strives to care for
the helpless animals that require just a little extra special effort.
Elsie’s story is a wonderful one about what can happen when the animal agencies in our community work together. Because of
this network, Elsie found a wonderful home with amazing parents and lots of furry brothers and sisters.
Congratulations Elsie!
