Before ➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️ After

The Robertson County KY Animal Shelter has went through a lot of change since Aletha Thomas took over in November 2019.
From painting every wall and kennel, to receiving rubber mats for the kennel floors (huge thanks to Who Will Let the Dogs Out?), to overflowing with donations (thanks to Hollywood Feed, positive change happened every day.
Decorating for holidays made it feel so much more special, more than what it already was.
The chalk wall grew with each save, even though many still weren’t written.
520+ dogs came through RCAS, and were able to be vetted, rescued, and/or adopted.
This place is a very special temporary home for homeless animals in need in Robertson County, and we hope the next ACO will have the passion, kindness, care, and support to keep it that way.
RCAS is definitely a sanctuary, not just for the animals, but for the ACO, and all volunteers.
We hope and pray that RCAS will continue to be a safe place.

Hello Everyone!

I just want to check in and update everyone about a big change in the Robertson County, KY Animal Shelter coming soon.
As the current Animal Control Officer, I wanted to publicly announce that I have resigned from this position, with my last day being on October 15th, 2025.
The shelter is currently closed to intake, but we may still be able to help if needed.
We have 3 amazing dogs available for adoption still in our care. Please continue to share their pictures and individual posts here on our page to help them find their forever home, or a qualified rescue.
This page will be discontinued on October 15th, 2025.
With a new ACO, I’m sure there will be a new page dedicated to the shelter once they are settled in.
I want to thank every single person who has donated, supported, adopted, rescued, fostered, volunteered, advocated, and helped make RCAS a successful 100% No Kill shelter for the last 5 years and 10 months.
I am so blessed to have had this opportunity and experience.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding during this time of change.

As things change at RCAS, we are still going to try everything to save these 3 sweet dogs.
If you’re not interested in adopting, you can still share and increase their chances!!

•Scarlett: 4-5 years old, spayed, vaccinated, walks great on leash, loves toys and treats!

•Rhett: 4-5 years old, neutered, vaccinated, loves toys, to go on runs, and enjoys soft canned food!

•Buttercup: 1-3 years old, spayed, vaccinated, loves toys, walks, treats, and snuggles!

All 3 dogs are very friendly and sweet to people, but are dog selective, as they were not socialized much in their past.
I believe these 3 would all do best if they were the only pet in the household and had no kids to worry about during their transition to home life.

If you have any questions or interest in any of the dogs, please message us or contact Aletha Thomas
Please share these sweet souls, and help save a life!!

She was the best girl while in the shelter!
Only happy days now for Chloe!
