Story
We acquired Jack due to our neighbor passing away unexpectedly. He is approximately 5-6 years old. We already had 5 dogs when we acquired him (3 of which are males). Things went fairly smoothly although Jack was fairly timid at first around us and our dogs. Our neighbor had a second older Jack Russel who passed away about a year before she did who was female. She also had 3 cats. Jack has started to mark all of our furniture and other areas in our home which has led to our makes doing the same. He would be better in a home where he is the only dog or only male. He is good with cats and has been fine with our grandchildren. He would likely do best in a home where someone is with him during the day and he can have more individual attention.

NO CATSNO DOGSNO SMALL CHILDRENENERGY LEVEL: HighPERSONALITY/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Timid, Cuddly, SoftHi I'm Clara! I can be a little bit timid at first around new people, but I'm a really sweet girl once you get to know me. Once I know I'm safe and that we are friends I become a big cuddle bug. I like to try and fit into my friends laps even if I'm a little bit too big. I'm not a big fan of cats, and can be selective about which other dogs I am friends with so I'll want to meet any you may have at home before we settle in. I'm hoping my new family can be gentle with me while I learn some more socialization skills, while spoiling me rotten at the same time! Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me! Primary Color: Brindle Weight: 44.6 Age: 4yrs 3mths 0wks

ENERGY LEVEL: Medium-HighPERSONALITY/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Happy-go-lucky, Talkative, SweetHi, I'm Simone! I'm a happy-go-lucky girl in search of a new home! Don't let my age fool you, I am still active and love to play and go on walks! I know the saying goes "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" but that is just not true! I'm smart and already know a few commands and can't wait to learn more! My favorite past time is to spend time with my family, whether it is out on an adventure or home on the couch. Think we could be a perfect match? Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me! Primary Color: Red Weight: 60.6 Age: 7yrs 3mths 3wks

ENERGY LEVEL: HighPERSONALITY/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Goofy, Happy, AthleticHi, I'm Art! My goofiness may in and of itself be a work of art! (Get it?!) I'm so silly and love to do zoomies! Sometimes I have a hard time being still. I hope my new family has a lot of time to play with me! I'm smart too! I already know how to sit and can't wait to learn more. I love cookies, and definitely will work for cookies! I haven't met any other dogs here yet, but if you have another dog at home we could do a meet and greet to see if we get along! Think we can be best friends? Adventure buddies? Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me!

ENERGY LEVEL: Medium-HighPERSONALITY/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Goofy, Happy, SmartHi, I'm Spartacus! I'm a goofy good boy looking for my new perfect forever home! My goofy grin will make you smile every day. I'm a smart boy, I already know some commands (I can sit and shake!) and I can't wait to learn more (especially if you have some treats! Those are the best.) I love to ride in the car too! I hope we can go on some adventures together. I've lived with other dogs before, but if you have one, I'd love to meet them before adoption to make sure we get along! Could we be the best adventure buddies? Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me! Primary Color: Red Weight: 60.2 Age: 4yrs 7mths 2wks

Story
ENERGY LEVEL: MediumPERSONALITY/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Brindle, Goofy, SmartHi, my name is Leroy and I can't wait to be your best friend! I've got a class clown personality and love to make people smile. I'm smart too! I already know how to sit and I can catch treats like a champ (maybe because I'm a bit of a foodie! Treats are so yummy!). I also know how to lay down and shake! I would prefer a home without small children but would be open to one with older kiddos and teens! I'm a really happy boy who just so happens to resemble Baby Yoda... so *cough, cough* if you're a Star Wars fan, it's basically meant to be?! I haven't met any other dogs here yet, but if you have one at home I'm happy to do a meet and greet to make sure we get along before adoption! Could I be your new best friend? Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me! Primary Color: Brindle Weight: 70.4 Age: 7yrs 6mths 3wks
