Trooper Community Service Award - Ms.
Kelly Hamilton of Bluegrass Boxer Rescue Have you ever met someone who just won’t give up? Have you met a person with a heart so tender that they can never say “no” to an animal in need? No matter what the circumstances, Kelly Hamilton will never give up on any Boxer for any reason. She shares her home with 20-25 Boxers who are in transition from neglect to loving, permanent families. Kelly will not deny any dog the chance for love, regardless of its special needs. Her foster dogs can be blind, deaf, crippled or geriatric. She has picked up Boxers at high-kill shelters at 3am to save their lives, and these lucky dogs understand her compassion. During the first 10 months of 2008, Kelly helped Bluegrass Boxer Rescue place 108 Boxers into permanent homes. As an officer for the Louisville Metro Police Department, Kelly has sometimes been financially challenged to feed and train this many dogs, but her determination is unwavering. Kelly simply loves her Boxers and nothing will deter her from giving them the best possible lives. Please join us in recognizing her outstanding accomplishments in animal rescue.
