Thank you to everyone who came out to the 14th Annual Walk Against Animal Cruelty yesterday and braved the rain to walk for the animals who fall victim to cruelty.

Your willingness to walk, even in less-than-ideal weather, helped raise awareness of animal cruelty and reminded our community that every animal deserves to be treated with compassion and respect.

Every step you took was a step for the animals who cannot speak for themselves. Thank you for standing with them and supporting the work of Fayette Regional Humane Society.

If you were at the walk and have photos, please drop them in a comment; we would love to see them..

⚠️ ROSS COUNTY - HIGH WATER AND OUTDOOR ANIMAL SAFETY:

With high water reported in multiple areas of Ross County, those taking caring for outdoor animals are reminded to take extra precautions.

Flooding and rising water can create dangerous conditions for outdoor animals.

Please make sure your animals have access to:

- Safe, dry shelter away from water that may continue to rise and flooded areas.

- Fresh drinking water that has not been contaminated by floodwater.

- Food and bedding kept dry and protected from the weather.

- Secure fencing and enclosures to prevent animals from wandering into dangerous areas.

Do not allow animals to enter floodwater. It may be deeper or moving faster than it appears, and submerged hazards may not be visible. Check outdoor areas for hazards and ensure animals are not trapped in low-lying areas where water may rise.

If an animal is in immediate danger due to flooding or unsafe conditions, contact local emergency services or humane society.

UPDATE: Ghormley Road Investigation

Upon further investigation, our Humane Agents discovered that the three dogs were not found on the side of Ghormley Road on September 10 and were not abandoned, as reported to our Humane Agents. The initial report was falsified by another party who was with the owner of the dogs before they brought the dogs to our Animal Care and Adoption Center.

Through continued investigation, our humane agents located the subject in another county and served them with three charges related to animal cruelty due to the condition of the dogs.

Nova, Toby, and Zooma remain in our care and are doing well. The three dogs will soon be available for adoption. We will provide an update when they are ready to find their forever homes.

Thank you to the Highland Humane Society humane agent who assisted us this afternoon and took possession of the remaining dogs at the residence.

🐾 Brad Is Reeling In More Miles 🐾

A big thank you to Teresa Villarreal, Attorney at Law, for finding a creative way to make Chief Humane Agent Brad Adams work a little harder for the animals!

Teresa clipped $500 to the end of Toddler’s fishing pole and, in the spirit of the challenge, required Brad to wear the red hat while reeling it in.

Brad will do just about anything for donations to help the animals… well, almost anything!

He reeled it in, and that $500 means five more miles for Brad to walk in the fight against animal cruelty.

Brad is currently caught up with a zero balance, so these five miles are now waiting for him!

Thank you, Teresa, for the incredibly generous donation and for making Brad work for it. We’re looking forward to seeing those five miles get walked!

🐾 Two More Miles — 21 Miles and Counting! 💙

Even though the sun had gone down, our Chief Humane Agent Brad Adams was still putting in the miles! 👣🌙

Late this evening, Brad completed two more miles as part of his personal Walk Against Animal Cruelty fundraising challenge.

Tonight’s two miles were dedicated to:

💙 Sandy Cooper
💙 Lori Newman

Their generous donations sent Brad back out to walk for the animals and continue raising awareness in the fight against animal cruelty. 🐶🐱

With these two miles, Brad has now walked a total of 21 miles for the animals! 👣🐾

And remember, Brad’s challenge continues: for every $100 raised, he’ll walk another mile for the animals and recognize the donor who helped make that mile possible.

21 miles down… and the journey continues! Who’s going to send Brad out for the next mile?

➡️ Help Brad keep walking! Donation link is in the comments.
