Spayed or Neutered,

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!

Story

*****IF INTERESTED EMAIL derbycitydogrescue@gmail.com*****Hello, good people! My name is Niko and I am a hunka, hunka, burning love looking for that special someone/family to call my own!I'm roundabout 11 yrs old and as you can see from my pics, I'm a pretty handsome fella and a bit of a ladies man. I really love to snuggle up with you and give out some kisses.I also love a good run around the yard and to play with my ropes, old footballs, and really any kind of fun with tough toys!Now I do like to be the king of my castle, so that I can be the center of your attention and not have to share my toys or love with other animals. I might be able to tolerate a laid back kind of girl, but I'd need some introductions first to be sure.I really like to please my people so learning new tricks and commands is always a fun time for me. I've learned several over the years including sit, stay, paw, and down but I might need a bit of a refresher. I'm a pretty strong guy so a nice harness is a good idea for walks (WHICH I LOVE!).Niko is up to date on shots, neutered, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $200. To apply to adopt Niko, complete our application at www.derbycitydogrescue.org/adoption-application.html

*****IF INTERESTED EMAIL derbycitydogrescue@gmail.com*****What's up party people? Cheeto's the name and fun is my game!

I've lived on the streets and had some lean times before a nice lady found me and helped me get where I am today.I'm a super fun chick with a love for car rides, walks in the park, and TREATS. Some say I like treats a bit too much, but is there such a thing?I really like to meet new people and make people friends really easily. I even like the small peoples. I'm not too much on the furry friends though - I like to the one getting all the love.So, do you know anyone that is looking for a little slice of heaven like me?Cheeto is house trained, is up to date on shots, spayed, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200.To apply for Cheeto, complete our application at www.derbycitydogrescue.org/adoption-application.html

Persimmon

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 11 yrs 9 mos

Louisville, KY

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Persimmon is looking for an adoptive home who is willing to work with her on becoming a respectable member of dog society!Persimmon came to us in very bad shape, with almost no fear and sores all over her body from demodex likely caused by extreme neglect. She was very ill for a long period of time but has almost completely recovered, with some occasional skin flareups. Persimmon is, as far as we can tell, about 3 years old, and seems to be some kind of pit/boxer mix. She’s crate trained, has a solid sit, and some basic leash skills (that at this point aren’t solid when there are any distractions).She is dog and cat reactive, but will move past quiet animals with consistent reinforcement/distraction. She needs to be crated away from other animals. We do believe that with slow introductions, positive training, and patience, she may be able to interact appropriately with other dogs.She is an incredibly happy dog who will play for long periods of time, whether she’s on her own or not. She’s excited about learning new things (and good at it), but has a harder time adjusting in environments where there’s too much going on.Persimmon is, at her core, a super sweet, funny, and playful dog with a terrific personality and will light up any room she is in.If you would be interested in adopting Persimmon, complete our application at www.derbycitydogrescue.org/adoption-application.html

Story

***IF INTERESTED PLEASE EMAIL DERBYCITYDOGRESCUE@GMAIL.COM***Hi! My name is Susie and I want to be your new best friend! I am around a year old with lots of love to give! I've been working really hard on my potty training and I've learned crate training super fast. I LOVE to play with other dogs, I get along with kids, and I'm cool with cats too. I could chew on dog bones all day and I like running around in my foster moms backyard. I could be an awesome partner for trail walks/runs or I can be a pretty chill couch potato too. I can be a bit nervous of people at first since I had a harder start when I was first born, but I will warm up once trust has been gained on both sides. I love to cuddle with my foster mom and lay in her lap and give lots of kisses. I am sweet, lovable, and one goofy little girl! Would you be my new person?! Crate trained, potty trained, up to date on shots, spayed, and adoption fee is $200.
