We are advocates for the outcast, 

A voice for the unwanted.

Barktown Rescue is a foster based dog rescue in Nelson County, Kentucky. We do not have a facility or kennel. All of our dogs are in loving foster homes until we can find proper forever homes for them. We pull as many dogs as we can from Nelson County Animal Control and try to find other rescues for the ones that we do not have foster homes for. We work with the public to help them if they can no longer care for their dogs. Since we have no kennel, the families that need to re-home their pets foster them. Our goal is to eventually make Nelson County all no-kill.


We are a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization, which means all of your donations are tax deductible!


Without your generous donations and wonderful fosters and volunteers, we would not be able to continue helping the homeless dogs in Nelson County. 

We are always looking for foster homes and volunteers! Please visit those pages for more information! Also make sure to check our wish list, you'd be surprised how many items we need that you'd have just laying around the house unused! If you are interested in helping out, please contact us.
