Madison County shelter needs volunteers after 16 found living in bad conditions
SUMMARY: The County Animal Shelter urgently needs assistance after rescuing over a dozen dogs from severe neglect. Volunteer Lee Miller left her job to help improve the lives of pets, stepping in after a family with 16 dogs sought help. Despite previous attempts to get aid from the shelter and police, little was done. Miller also took in a 15-year-old cat that had spent her life in a cage. With the shelter nearing capacity, volunteers are seeking more adoptions and foster homes. For more information on how to help, visit fox56news.com.
Like many shelters in Kentucky, Madison County is close to capacity. So, when an urgent surrender call came in Tuesday night, volunteers decided to step up.

Impacts of Israel-Iran conflict on Kentucky
SUMMARY: Tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated following Israeli airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites, prompting Iranian retaliation. In Kentucky, Rabbi Shlomo Litvin of the Kentucky Jewish Council defended Israel’s actions, citing Iran’s growing nuclear threat. The conflict’s global repercussions are already hitting Americans at the gas pump, with oil prices jumping over 8% to \$74 a barrel. Gas, diesel, and jet fuel prices are expected to rise further, with Lexington possibly seeing 10–20 cent increases per gallon. Analysts emphasize oil pricing is a global issue, minimally influenced by U.S. leadership, and driven by broader geopolitical dynamics.
A decades-long shadow war between Israel and Iran came to its tipping point as Israel launched strikes on Iran, targeting the country’s nuclear and military facilities in the early hours of Friday morning.
