My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

MISTY is a 3 year old, female german shepherd that weighs 65 lbs. She is smart, affectionate, active and very ready for her forever home.

This beautiful girl has been with us for a long time, but just as diamonds do, over time, Misty has formed herself into a lovely young lady.

When she was one, she was in big trouble. She was wild, she was anxious, she was lacking in social skills and she was a day away from euthanasia. The urgency to help was evident. We saw a diamond in the rough and we were right! The nurturing pressure we applied along the way allowed her to develop into an awesome dog! Over the last year and a half, we helped her grow up through her "terrible teens". She is, after all, a german shepherd (plus a pinch of yellow lab because we have the DNA to prove it).

Adopt Me! always desires a loving, forever home as quickly as possible, but maybe, just maybe, in this case it was all for the good. Misty's all grown up and amazes us every day with what a smart and engaging dog she is. She is a graduate of our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program where she mastered obedience training. Post prison, our dedicated volunteers have worked hard re-introducing her to "life" on the outside. Her social skills are now quite refined. She has her favorite canine trail buddies for walks, and pick up a ball to throw? and it's game on!

Her time has come! She's as brilliant as they come! Her perfect "fit" with be with an active, adult family (she'd be fine with older children). She must have a fenced yard. She is fine with other dogs as long as it's a younger, easy going male. Most of all, and in order to thrive, she needs an owner who understand the breed. They are incredibly loyal and smart.

If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application. Please visit our website at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com and click on Misty's picture in "Adoptable Dogs". Additional adoption FAQ's can be found here also. Meets will be set with approved applicants based on our "best family fit" approach.
