100% of Puppy Bowl dogs get adopted. These Kentucky shelter dogs need a home, too

Who doesn’t love the Puppy Bowl? The perfect way to start your Super Bowl Sunday, the event features the most adorable puppies, and those watching are bound to see plenty of ear pulls, sloppy kisses, and touchdowns, of course!

Beginning in 2005, the Puppy Bowl was intended to promote adoption, with all participating pups available to go to their fur-ever home. Since its debut, the program has had a 100% adoption rate… but what about all the shelter pups right here in Kentucky in need of a home?

While the pups featured in the Super Bowl LVIII (58) pre-game are irresistible, why not consider adopting one locally? At the Kentucky Humane Society, plenty of great dogs of various ages, breeds and personalities are available for adoption. Furthermore, the adoption fees have been waived on some, and all the shelter asks is that those interested in adopting provide the perfect home for their precious fur babies.

Jack

  • Age: 5
  • Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
  • Location: Foster home. Available by appointment. Apply here.
  • Ideal Home: “Jack knows what he likes…and what he doesn’t. He’s an independent dude who doesn’t put up with any tomfoolery or shenanigans and needs a home that will follow his rules. Above all else-Jack does not like sharing space with other animals. He’s meant to be the apple of your eye and, as such, requests that he be your one and only fur-baby,” the Kentucky Humane Society wrote in an email to the Courier Journal.
  • Personality Traits: “Working breed! Jack is truly a “jack of all trades” and needs a family that will give him the physical and mental stimulus he requires. We’re firm believers that Jack would make a phenomenal pest control, garden guard, or truck-driving companion! He’s always up for a challenge and doesn’t hesitate to sniff out fun or new things to do.”
  • Adoption Fee: Waived
  • Days at Shelter: 230
