Kevin’s story is a testament to the resilience of shelter dogs and the power of a second chance. Once overlooked in a crowded municipal shelter in western New York, Kevin now thrives in a rescue environment, waiting for the perfect family to call his own.
Overwhelmed by a surge in homeless pets, the shelter where Kevin was housed struggled to showcase his potential. The noisy, chaotic atmosphere left Kevin stressed, making it difficult for visitors to see his true personality. Facing overcrowding and the grim possibility of euthanasia, volunteers acted quickly, reaching out to Joyful Rescues for help.
When Kevin arrived at the rescue, the transformation was immediate. Within days, this gentle and well-mannered dog revealed his loving nature. He adores people, walks well on a leash, and has a knack for getting along with dogs of all sizes. Even his playful antics, like plucking a light from an artificial Christmas tree, only add to his charm.

Kevin’s journey highlights a critical issue facing shelters in the region: overpopulation. Joyful Rescues, a nonprofit dedicated to giving dogs like Kevin a fighting chance, steps in where resources fall short. Adoption fees not only cover essential medical care but also fund the organization’s ongoing efforts to save more lives.
For $500, adopters receive a “complete” pet, including spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and more. The fee supports the care of pets like Kevin while ensuring the rescue can continue its mission.
Kevin’s story isn’t just about survival; it’s about thriving against the odds. He’s ready to bring joy to a loving home, proving that every rescue dog has the potential to be a family’s perfect match.
Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive – you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility. YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES
We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption.
