Ky Hopeful Paws is a non-profit 501(c)(3) founded in 2020 to address a growing need in the Kentucky community. Kentucky faces one of the largest pet-dog crises across the country and the numbers of abandoned and abused animals continue to grow.
KY Hopeful Paws is a champion of dogs everywhere, and our hope is through leadership, education, and involvement with our community and beyond, we can make Kentucky a hopeful place for all dogs.
We are currently helping dogs in need through sheltering, fostering, adoption, education, spay/neuter education, and community outreach.
Many of the dogs we take in are cases of abuse, neglect, hoarding, large puppy mills, or other emergency situations.
FindpetTM is a Participating Pet Recovery Service Registry for the AAHA Universal Pet Microchip Lookup Tool. AAHA provides an
internet-based application that enables veterinarians, humane organizations, pet owners or other persons to search various Pet
Recovery Service registries and identify those registries on which a particular microchip is registered. AAHA is not affiliated or
involved with any specific microchip registry and has no relationship, financial or otherwise, with this Participating Pet Recovery
Service Registry ("Registry"). This Registry has given AAHA permission to search the Registry's database in order to assist pet
owners in being reunited with their pets. AAHA does not maintain a database of microchips of its own. It only links to registries such
as this one. The AAHA Universal Microchip Lookup Tool only searches the databases of companies that elect to participate in the
program.
