Story
FRED is a 5 year old male chihuahua that weighs 15 lbs. He is a shy, gentle little dog that is working hard to enjoy a better life. He came to us from a hoarding situation. A senior became ill and left 8 little dogs behind in her home. They were well fed but poorly socialized. FRED started with us in foster care. Earlier this year, he graduated to our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program. For most dogs, this program is designed to address obedience issues, for others, the socialization aspects of the environment are perfect. And we love it when "a plan comes together!" FRED can walk on a leash, sit on command and sit up for a treat! His greatest accomplishment? He loves his inmate and will readily jump into his lap. Many of us take this show of affection for granted. For Fred, he's finally realizing his human buddy is a what a little chihuahua is meant to do. Next steps? FRED is ready to graduate from Paws Behind Bars. He's ready for his own home. The "right" fit for him will be in a quiet, adult home. He will do best with a gentleman owner. He is very easy to care for, and once he bonds with you, there will be nothing but unconditional love. If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application. Please visit our website at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com and click on FRED'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
MEET VANILLA!! He is part of our "baking litter" who came from southeast KY. Vanilla and his littermates came in very itchy from fleas and have experienced mild demodectic mange. They were treated and now their little bald spots are growing back in! They are ready for their forever homes now! He is looking for a home that will work on potty training, socialization and continue with him crate training. We expect him to be a small size at full maturity. If you're interested in adopting, our process begins with the submission of OUR online application at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com, or email us if you submitted an application within the last six months. We review and schedule meets (with approved applicants only) based on the order received. Keep in mind he is weeks-old with a life expectancy of up to 15 years. Our guiding principle for adoptions is to seek the right fit for family and for dog, including a home that can stay committed to him for life.
