Story

We got sire from metro animal services and had him for about 6 months. We called him sai because when we first seen him it looked more of a fit. He does respond to both. His previous owners did not feed him and he ended up being malnourished when we got him. We tried giving him the best life that we possibly could, with us staying in an apartment it’s been very hard to make space for him inside and outside. He is a very playful puppy with a lot of energy and we just want what’s best for him. We want to make sure he is well taken care of and in an amazing home.

Moxie

Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Female Young

Boston, KY

Size

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Moxie is around 2 years old! Not only is she adorable, but she is very intelligent! She is timid, standoffish and flighty when you first meet her, but she does warm up pretty fast! Moxie is a typical teenager and needs guidance and training to keep her from doing things she shouldn't such as counter surfing and chewing. If you are a high energy, you will enjoy this high energy girl. A home with other dogs would be beneficial to her to help burn her energy. She is doing well with crate training and house training. She would probably do well with older kids, but no small children as she could accidently knock them down! She really needs a tall, fenced yard as well just for safety! She walks pretty well on a leash and would likely LOVE hiking/running! WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT MOXIE COMES WITH TRAINING WITH ROSIE DANE DOG TRAINING! Thanks to the Pedigree Foundation, we are able to work with the trainers at Rosie Dane Dog Training to pay for a 10 week Novice Training course once adopted. More details available upon request! If you would like to make Moxie a part of your family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org MOXIE'S ADOPTION FEE IS $170The shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at the dog's predominant breed or breed mix. We strongly encourage you to select your new pet by looking at each dog's individual personality and pet qualities rather than relying on a breed label that is only our best guess. Our adoption fees vary from $150 and up. All of our dogs are up to date on vaccines, heart worm preventives, and flea/tick medication, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Portions of your adoption fee also help care for the sick and injured animals that we take in. Thank you for supporting us and considering a rescue dog! April 20, 2026, 11:41 am

Meet Jones! Jones is estimated to be around 6 years old. He is a hound mix and very much hound like! He will need a panel fence and supervision, as he is a typical hound and will dig. He is in a foster and working on house training and he gets a long well with the Foster's dogs, but we still encourage slow introductions.
