Story
We adopted sweet Nalu from the local shelter earlier this year. She loves her people, and always wants to play, please, and when tired snuggle! Her favorite activities are playing tug of war, frisbee or ball fetch, and going for walks. She has great recall, respects her stay bed, and is well leash trained. Nalu is extremely smart and needs a steady hand to keep her on track with her trained skills. She responds well to occasional gentle corrections using her e-collar when the need arises. She is crate trained, but prefers sunbathing and napping on the couch. We absolutely love Nalu, she can be a little snippy when she is asleep or tired. This makes it difficult for our family with 2 kids less than 4 years old to give Nalu the space she needs during these times. To avoid difficult/dangerous interactions with the kids, we are heart broken to have to rehome for Nalu. Nalu comes with all crate, food, ecollar, toys, and several hrs of pet station training to help her transition

Story
Onyx is a two year old, spayed, female pit mix who is up to date on vaccines. This is what her foster mom had to say about her: "As you can see in her pictures, she's a bit of a goof :) She loves long walks, but is also content to snuggle on the couch. She likes to be covered up with blankets. She doesn't like going out in the rain. She takes treats very gently and prefers soft over crunchy. She loves ice, and comes running every time I open the freezer:) She sits/waits while her food bowl is put down. We have been working on leash manners and she's doing well, though not yet perfect. We have also been working on recall and waiting at the door to go out, she's doing well with both. She likes car rides, but 100% needs to be restrained with a harness and seatbelt . She is potty trained and good in her crate.   She doesn't destroy toys and generally doesn't chew things that she shouldn't. She has a high (wildlife) prey drive and I don't think she could live with cats.  She is non-reactive to other dogs while out on walks. She had positive interactions with a Trainer friends' dog and another dog at the shelter. Both my friend and shelter staff believe that she will be fine with other dogs with proper introductions and supervision." Let's get Onyx adopted!

Story
Cupcake is a 9 year old, pittie mix female. She weighs all of 40 lbs, so she's petite. Unlike so many others, we know a little about her. She originally came from TN. We know, because we pulled her. That was back in 2017. We did what we always do. We found a great family and we adopted her. Fast forward to 2024. Clearly her life took a few twists and turns and she was spotted - and then trapped - in Iroquois Park. No attempts to claim her followed so she's officially back in our program. Thank goodness for microchips! When she was wanded, the number came straight to us and she was able to sidestep a trip to Louisville Metro. The volunteers are getting to know her. She's a favorite! Someone took care of her and someone loved her because she can't get enough attention. She is very well behaved and not bothered by the company of other dogs. She is in great health and she's willing to give this a go, again! If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application. Please visit our website at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com and click on Cupcakes'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. Thank you!
