About Us
Our Mission
Our mission is to focus on dogs at risk for euthanasia & those in need of medical care. We work to give them a second chance at a wonderful life.
PBSF Dog Rescue is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, 100% volunteer and foster-based dog rescue in Louisville, Kentucky. We rescue all breeds and ages of dogs.

Our Featured Dog
Meet Bean!
Female Pit Bull mix
About 1.5 years old
50 pounds
Bean is ready to find her forever home! She is about 1.5 years old and was found as a stray on the street, skinny and scared. After no one claimed her as theirs, she joined the PBSF family. Her sweet and spunky demeanor and trusting eyes win over the hearts of everyone she meets (not to mention the sweet pink freckles on her nose).
She loves to play with toys, wrestle with her pittie foster brothers, play fetch and go for walks. Her nose and tummy turn pink when she gets excited, and it’s adorable.
She does great in the car. She goes to work with her foster parents everyday to oversee their work and sleep under their desks – in fact, her excellent behavior just won her Employee of the Month for May!
She does great with dog-savvy kids. She is perfectly potty trained, and is great in her crate. She likes being around other dogs. Because she was starving on the street, she can occasionally become possessive over food, so we just feed her separately. It’s not a big deal. Her occasional food guarding has improved over the month her foster family has had her, as she’s learned she will now be safe, career for, and loved forever. We think it won’t be a concern for much longer as she keeps relaxing into safety. A great thing about being food motivated is that she likes training and is learning so much. She will thrive with continued training.
Bean is young, curious and playful. She requires a fenced-in yard and a family committed to walking her so she can explore the world (she’s good on a leash). She has learned what snuggling is, and adores it. She also loves meeting people, and has very good manners when meeting them and hanging out with neighbors.

Donate to Save a Life
Our rescue runs entirely on donations from generous and caring people. We are a volunteer-run organization, so every dollar goes to saving another dog’s life. Please consider donating to help us fulfill our mission. We are a nonprofit 501c(3), so donations are tax-deductible.
Adopt or Foster
About 1.5 million shelter animals are euthanized every year. Yet, puppy mills and breeders continue to produce litter after litter. There is no excuse for buying instead of adopting when there are breed-specific rescues and shelters in every city. If you don’t see an adoptable dog here that catches your eye, please check other shelters and rescues until you find one. Plus, it will cost you a whole lot less!
Not ready to adopt? Have a little extra space and time? Become a foster! Our foster program is open to anyone in the Greater Louisville area who is interested in providing a loving temporary home to a rescued puppy or adult dog while they wait for their forever home.
Contact PBSF Dog Rescue
We are a small team of volunteers, so please be patient as we work to answer emails. We do not have an intake facility, so we cannot take in owner surrenders or strays.
If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please submit an application from a computer. You will receive an email confirmation and we will contact you accordingly.
