Story
Hi I’m Kenny! 😁 I am ready for my new home! Things I am learning in foster: Sit, Lie down, to come when called (very easily distracted), and fetch! I know what crate means and will go in when told! I am house broke and will tell you when I need to potty! I DEFINITELY know when it’s time to eat. Before I was rescued I was SO hungry. My foster family says I'm high energy and wouldn't be the best fit with little kids or young cats. I will need a lot of exercise to stay happy and well behaved! I love to explore things with my front feet and mouth. But learning to break that habit! Fun Facts about me: I love snuggling under a fuzzy blanket and watching a movie. I am too proper to sit on wet grass. I like eating anything that my foster people eat. They said I'm like a doggy garbage can. I LOVE TOYS!! I have decent prey drive too so I love toys that have a high squeak. I ALSO LOVE BONES OF ANY KIND. Car rides are fun. My foster family has to buckle me in when they have the windows down though. I would make a great addition to a home that loves the outdoors and have time to help me work my energy out. Especially with people who have an understanding of herding breeds! Cattle dog mix, petite 30lbs. Adoption fee is $200. Includes neuter, vaccines, microchip, deworming, and prevention https://www.blackcatanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications

Story
Emma is a fun loving typical terrier! We believe Emma to be a jack Russel mix but have not DNA tested her. She was surrendered to the rescue after her previous owner said she had to be out ASAP or be taken to the shelter Emma does well with other dogs and cats, especially other dogs that she can get her energy out with. Children must be 12yrs or older because she does get a little protective over her person! She is doing well with crate and house training. She LOVES to chew and play outside, but is also content to crawl up on your lap for a nap. Emma has been such a joy to have and we know her perfect family is out there. adoption fee is $350. She will be spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and UTD on prevention. https://www.blackcatanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications

Story
Millie is a sweet middle aged gal who is just looking for a warm lap to lay in for the rest of her days! Here's what her foster has to say about her: She is very sweet and loves everybody. She can be timid , around loud noises. She loves to sleep with blanket , usually her whole body is under the blanket. She has separation anxiety and doesn't like to be left alone so a retired or work from home situation would be best. Hats can be scary, she's not found of hats. She is crate trained, has used puppy pad on occasion, she prefers to go outside to potty, but I remind her to go and go outside with her. She walks well on a leash enjoys going for short walks. https://www.blackcatanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications

Phoebe is a husky / border collie mix. She is such a loving dog and is good with all other animals and kids. Phoebe is house and crated trained. She would love a family that will take her on long walks, or even better a home with a nice big fenced yard! She is smart, easy to train, rides great in the car. You will love her silly, wiggle butt personality! Phoebe was adopted from us as a puppy a year ago but she has found herself back due to no fault of her own. This time around we want to make sure we find her forever home! Adoption fee Is $150 https://www.blackcatanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications

Story
She's a great girl wanting so patiently for a home of her own! Around 2 yrs old she's still a playful girl that loves fetch all day but has learned alot of basic commands and is amazing with cues like kennel, and leave it. She's a lap dog if you'll let her but also respectful of not getting on furniture if told. A little too hyper with cats but getting more used to them. I think she would like a bigger brother or sister to play with. Being fostered with kids currently. No chickens!
