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 Boone!
Male pointer/pit mix
About 2 years old
35 pounds
If you’re looking for the perfect combination of adventure buddy and professional snuggler, Boone is your guy. This handsome 2-year-old pointer/pit mix (we think!) weighs just 35 lbs, but his heart is absolutely huge.
Boone is an athletic, playful pup who thrives on walks, runs, and backyard games of fetch or tug-of-war. He’s high-energy in all the best ways, and with a good daily walk and some playtime, he transforms into a total couch companion who loves nothing more than curling up for cuddles.
If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you moving and then happily crash on the couch by your side, Boone is ready to meet you.

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
PBSF Dog Rescue is a small, foster-based rescue and does not operate a shelter or physical facility. Because all of our dogs are cared for in volunteer foster homes, we have very limited capacity.
At this time, we are unable to accept owner surrenders, assist with rehoming dogs, or take in stray dogs. We also do not have the resources or capacity to help facilitate the surrender or rehoming process.
PBSF is operated entirely by a small team of dedicated volunteers. We appreciate your patience as we work to respond to emails and messages as quickly as possible.
Please note that emails regarding owner surrenders, dogs needing to be rehomed, or stray dogs will not receive a response.
Thank you for your understanding and for supporting rescue efforts in our community.
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.
If you have questions regarding one of our dogs, an event, donations or other information, please email us at: pitbullsofstfrancis@gmail.com
