When you're adopting from a small Kentucky town, neighboring counties become your advantage. Call Jessamine Humane Society first and ask to join their waitlist, then extend your search to Harrodsburg just 18 miles away — it has the most shelters nearby and a better shot at current availability. Confirm a beagle or hound-mix is actually there before you make the drive. The surrounding region is close enough that you can check multiple shelters in a morning, and one of them will have the dog you're meant to bring home.
