Jack

Posted January 2, 2020 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Beagle mix
Sex: Male neutered
Estimated birthdate: July 2018
Size: M, 35 lbs
Good with cats: unknown
Good with kids: unknown
Housebroken: yes
General information: Jack is a newcomer to our program and getting settled in. He’s very affectionate with his human and likes other dogs as long as he has a moment to interact and not be overwhelmed. He’s lovable, smart and already knows several of his commands. He will let you know when he needs to go outside, likes some toys (others are just “meh”) but his favorite pastimes are being outside smelling all the smells or hanging out with his person. He’s the perfect size to ride along in the car, go for a walk or just curl up next to you.

Chewy

Posted December 20, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Large mixed
Sex: male neutered
Estimated birthdate: July 2018
Size: L, 65
Good with cats: unknown
Good with kids: yes
Housebroken: yes
General information: Chewy is a big lug of a boy who was scheduled to be euthanized due to overcrowding in a small rural shelter. The staff there just loved him and we couldn’t let it happen…so here he is! Chewy lives in a foster home with 2 female dogs and 3 human children and loves them all. He’s still got a lot of his puppy energy and is clumsy, bouncy and playful (he really really likes toys!) He’s crated during the night with no problems, lets you know when he needs to go outside, and is an affection vacuum. Chewy will thrive in an environment where he is truly part of the family. He’s going to be a committed companion who will love with his whole heart.

Lucy

Posted December 5, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Shepherd mix
Sex: female spayed
Estimated birthdate: May 2019
Size: L, approx 60 lbs full grown
Good with kids: untested
Good with cats: untested
Housebroken: yes
General information: Lucy could possibly win a trophy for Best Ears Ever. She’s still a puppy and based on her current weight it is estimated that she’ll be about 60+ lbs fully grown. Lucy is wicked smart and learns very quickly. She likes other dogs and opens up once she’s familiar with them. As soon as she understands that they’re friendly then it’s an all out play fest! As part of the canine-inmate program, she will begin learning basic obedience and leash walking. She will do best in a home that will continue positive socialization and including her in daily activities.

Breed: Australian Shepherd mix
Sex: Male neutered
Estimated birthdate: January 2018
Size: M, 41 lbs
Good with kids: yes
Good with cats: unknown
Housebroken: yes
General information: Jax is awesome. He’s a striking looking boy with his blue merle coat and long slender face. He’s always in a good mood and happy to greet you. He does well with other dogs but would also be fine as an only pet. He literally has a spring in his step and sometimes bounces like a deer when he runs. Jax is a genuinely happy-go-lucky boy and will be a wonderful companion.

Malcolm

Posted October 29, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Mixed; Pointer/Spaniel
Sex: Male neutered
Estimated birthdate: March 2019
Size: M (estimate 40ish lbs full grown)
Good with cats: unknown
Good with kids: yes
Housebroken: mostly, doesn’t alert to go out yet
General information: Malcolm is a really sweet boy who needs a little extra patience. He’s afraid of men but is learning that they aren’t so scary. He’s currently being fostered in a home with another dog which seems to help him be more confident. Dogs like Malcolm sometimes get overlooked because they don’t come bouncing up with tails wagging…but he wants to. He’s learning how to play with toys, learning that beds are super comfy, and learning that people can be kind. He loves kids, loves to snuggle, and just needs someone who understands that “perfect” comes in many different forms.

Heath

Posted October 18, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Australian Shepherd/Beagle/Mix
Sex: Male neutered
Estimated birthdate: Oct 2017
Size: M, 34 lbs
Good with kids: unknown
Good with cats: unknown
Housebroken: new to program
General information: Heath’s photos don’t show his coloring well…he’s got a really dark merle coat with tan legs and face. Heath came in from one of our partner shelters in Kentucky with his sister. He is slightly more reserved of the two, but he is friendly and loves attention. Heath has gone into our canine-inmate program where he will be exposed to basic obedience commands, leash walking, and continue being socialized. He’s a great size, not too big, not too small, and will make a great companion. Wouldn’t you love to have a Heath in your trick or treat bag?!

Snickers

Posted October 18, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Australian Shepherd/Beagle/Mix
Sex: Female spayed
Estimated birthdate: Oct 2017
Size: M, 32 lbs
Good with cats: unknown
Good with kids: unknown
Housebroken: new to program
General information: Snickers’ photos don’t do her justice…she has the most gorgeous merle coloring (literally looks like a Snickers and is as sweet as one too!) She’s super friendly, loves to explore all the outdoor scents, and is the perfect size. She came in with her brother from one of our shelter partners in Kentucky but we don’t have any additional background history. She has gone into our canine-inmate program where she will be taught her basic command and continue with lots of socialization. She’s a great little dog…after all, who doesn’t love a Snickers?

Millie

Posted October 18, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Boxer mix
Sex: Female spayed
Estimated birthdate: Oct 2016
Size: L, 73 lbs
Good with cats: unknown
Good with kids: yes, 8+
General information: Millie is a large, beautiful dog who was adopted about 2 years ago after she first came to our rescue. She was surrendered back to us after she growled at a child for taking food from her. Her foster parents have worked diligently with a professional trainer and Millie has done wonderfully. They have not any issues with her guarding her food, she knows “leave it” and takes treats gently. Ongoing practice will be essential to reinforce the progress Millie has made. Additionally she has learned multiple obedience commands and is crate trained and housebroken (rings bell to go out.) She likes other dogs (larger is better because of her size during play but she is fine with smaller ones.) She LOVES new people, is good on a leash, and is a genuinely affectionate girl. She would do great with someone looking for a devoted companion that can go along on walks and adventures. More information is available from her foster parents if you’d like to inquire!

Roxy

Posted October 18, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Toy Fox Terrier mix
Sex: Female spayed
Estimated birthdate: Oct 2018
Size: S/M, 20 lbs
Good with kids: unknown
Good with cats: unknown
Housebroken: yes
General information: Roxy tends to be more of a wallflower vs. life of the party. She is shy initially but comes out of her shell once she feels more comfortable. She’s become buddies with several of the dogs in our canine-inmate program and it seems to boost her confidence. She’s very sweet, dog and people friendly. She’s learning her basic obedience in our program and is doing great! Her handler says that she’s quiet in her crate, good on a leash, and knows several of her commands. She’s a sweet girl who would love to have a forever home of her own.

Josie

Posted October 3, 2019 | Posted in Adopted - Congrats! Comments Closed

Breed: Chihuahua mix
Sex: Female spayed
Estimated birthdate: January 2018
Size: Small, 11 lbs
Good with kids: unknown
Good with cats: unknown
Housebroken: yes
General information: Josie will be the best lap companion of all time. She is a “velcro” dog and loves to be with her person. She greets you very enthusiastically, even if you’ve only been gone 5 minutes! She would probably be fine with cats but has not been tested. She currently lives with 2 larger, fairly calm dogs in her foster home and is fine with both. Josie is timid at first and needs some extra time to adjust to new people and places, but once she does, you’re in her circle forever. She is crate trained (she may protest when first going in, but settles down quickly) and will let you know when she needs to go outside. She would do best in a home that isn’t super hectic and with someone that is patient with her sensitive soul. She is a tiny love bug with a giant heart.
