Story
Bandit is a great little guy! He showed up at our house one day in 2023. We tried to find his owner. No one claimed him. My daughter decided to keep him. She lives in a small condo and works all day. Bandit didn’t do well cooped up all day. He has. LOT of energy. Loves to run and play. My husband and I decided to try to keep him with us. We have 2 acres & there is usually someone home to let him stay out of the crate. My aging father lives with us & he hates indoor pets. He just cannot tolerate the dog. Bandit is pretty typical for his breed I think. He is playful, loving, and cuddly. He loves his blankets and crate at night. He barks at cars in the driveway, strangers, and doorbells/knocks at the door. It takes him a minute to get comfortable with strangers. It seems to me, people who are more comfort with dogs do better with him. He barks until he realizes it’s safe. I think he is trying to protect us. He’s a sweet little guy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Wanted: A patient and understanding home with NO children and NO other animals.  Don't let Lulu's cute little face and size fool you.  We are unsure what trauma this little lady has been through, but she doesn't have a whole lot of trust in humans and she's not much of a fan of other animals.  Lulu has been in her foster home for over a year and her foster has been working to earn her trust.  Lulu is pee pad trained and is terrified of going outside.  Lulu enjoys snuggling under the covers in her foster mom's lap in bed while they sleep or on the couch while they watch tv in the evenings.  Lulu isn't a fan of crates, but is content to stay in a small room like a bedroom or bathroom while you are gone away from the house.  She doesn't mind the occassional pet, but isn't a fan of lots of attention or being picked up.  Lulu does resource guard when it comes to her food and her place in someone's lap.  Lulu has been in a foster home with both cats and dogs and she's learned to tolerate the animals in her "pack," but has had issues with new foster animals coming into the home so we feel she will be the happiest in a home without other animals that she needs to compete with.  Lulu is looking for a home where the people will give her the time to decompress and learn to trust.  Applications with children under the age of 16 will not be considered.           Estimated DOB: 02/26/2023   Adoption fee: $250 (6% KY sales tax included)  We would love to hear from you!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Chocolate and her sister Squirt are a bonded pair of ladies who are looking for a home where they can spend the rest of their days together.  Chocolate is a little more standoffish when it comes to meeting new people and it takes her time to warm up to new people and situations.  She will follow who from room to room in the house watching what you are doing.  Squirt is the exact opposite and an absolute lap dog and loves to be held and be right with you at all times.  Even though she's half the size of Chocolate she's the dominate one in the relationship when it comes to food and will boss Chocolate around when it comes to food or sharing a bed on the floor.  When Chocolate feels like Squirt has spent too much time sitting in someone's lap she will bark at her to get her to come lay with her in the bed in the floor.  Squirt is about the perfect weight for her size, but Chocolate could stand to loose about 8 pounds which her foster home has been working on.  Both girls are good with other dogs and cats.  They were in a home where they had only used pee pads and with the cold winter weather and snow they are been too scared to go outside.  They have never walked on leash before so need a home with a secure fence or a home where they can be allowed to use pee pads in the home.  These little ladies are sure to be a good addition to almost any home.  They have not been around small children so we are unsure on how they will do with them.         Estimated DOB:   01/04/2017 Adoption fee: $ 350 (6% KY sales tax included) for the pair of Chocolate and Squirt We would love to hear from you!
