My story

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

This dapper gentleman is Ike. He is 10 years old but no one told him so we are keeping that a secret! Ike's owner fell ill and was no longer able to care for him.
In his foster he is having fun playing with other dogs but any youngsters that want to play too rough and bump into him are a bit much for Ike.
Ike prefers to snuggle with his people rather than out playing with other dogs.
He is great on a leash but still at 84 pounds (and could stand to have a few more) he will be a lot to handle if he wants to pull you somewhere.
Ike had never been around cats before so we did a quick cat test which he passed. That's not to say if he lived with a kitty that he may change his mind about them.
Ike needs a nice quiet home to retire and be spoiled.

More about this rescue

Bluegrass Doberman Rescue was formed to provide a needed service to the Doberman rescue community based in the state of Kentucky. Although the rescue itself was just formed in 2017, the volunteers behind it have over 10 years of experience in rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming Dobermans. We are committed to helping purebred Dobermans find their forever homes as well as educating the public about this often misunderstood breed. We understand that not everyone can own a Doberman but we are also here to provide support to those who do. We believe this rescue should be a cooperative effort between all volunteers and a collaborative effort between rescues to help this wonderful breed of dogs we all love.
