Story
Hi! My name is Tobi, and I just turned 1 year old in May. I’m a sweet, loving, and loyal boy looking for my forever family.I’m neutered, up to date on all my vaccinations, and crate trained. I know several commands, including sit, stay, come, and cage, and I’m eager to keep learning. I get along well with other dogs and love spending time playing outside.I’m happiest in a home with a fenced yard where I can run and play, or with someone who has an active lifestyle and enjoys taking me on walks, hikes, or trips to the park. Once I build trust with you, I’ll happily stay by your side—I love being close to my people. And after a day of fun, there’s nothing I enjoy more than cuddling up with you.My family loves me very much, but because of frequent work-related travel, they’re no longer able to give me the time and attention I deserve. They made the difficult decision to find me a home where I can thrive and receive the love, companionship, and exercise I need.

She is both house-trained and crate-trained, and she settles nicely in her crate during downtime.

Because she's highly food-motivated, Kate is easy to train and enjoys learning new things. Most of all, she loves being with her people and makes amazing company. Kate is currently attending puppy training camp, where she'll be working on her basic skills and manners to help her become the perfect family companion.

To help your puppy grow into a happy, confident, and well-adjusted adult dog, dedication to obedience training, socialization, and consistent potty training is essential.  We strongly recommend that the entire family participate in puppy training classes. This not only helps build a strong bond with your new pup but also ensures everyone uses the same commands and techniques, creating a clear and consistent learning environment.  **Puppies thrive with structure, patience, and positive reinforcement—and so do their families!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Carissa!Carissa surrendered to PRBJ when she was 7 weeks old after being given to a lady who was not prepared to care for a puppy. Thankfully, she then brought Carissa to the center for assistance.We believe she is a Catahoula Leapord Dog mix. Carissa is outgoing and full of energy. She is doing well with leash walks and likes playing with toys and running around in a game of 'catch me if you can.'

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.***IN TRAINING TILL MID JULY***Pet Rescue By Judy has teamed up with an incredible program called the Greyhound Advancement Center which will allow some of our dogs to attend a ten-week prison training program. The program originally started to help retired racing greyhounds learn how to “dog”.Greyhound racing is now illegal in our state, but the program worked so well that they decided to open up to other rescues and accept different breeds. Each dog is teamed up with an inmate who is in their dog training program. This program allows inmates to gain an important skill that they can bring with them when they are released. The head trainers are the best of the best and we are sure that these dogs are going to come out of this program with all kinds of tricks up their little doggy sleeves. Our dogs are so blessed to be able to learn important obedience training to help with their confidence and make them awesome additions to a family.We cannot thank Greyhound Advancement Center enough for giving these dogs a leg up on getting into their forever home! The Beer Pups - Barley, Hops, and Porter The trio was surrendered to PRBJ after their family had to move from their farm to a townhouse. The boys were originally found late last summer when they were just a few weeks old. They have grown up around lots of kids, other dogs, and farm animals.  They walk well on leash and are potty trained. The trio seems to be a little nervous with moving again to a new place but are starting to warm up. They are hound mixes and should not get much bigger than they are right now, making them a great fit for a family of any size.   Important Information for New Puppy Parents  Welcoming a new puppy into your home is an exciting and rewarding experience—but it also comes with important responsibilities.
