Marble is a very calm dog, she loves to play, take walks, and go to the dog park for about 10-45 minutes lol after that she has enough and youll see her just laying down enjoying the weather or sleeping. She loves to watch tv, prefers action and adventure tv shows and movies (doesnt really like animal shows- animal kingdom, bluey), loves children and is very gentle. She turns 1 September 23rd. She is not spayed but if you require her to be I can get her spayed. She is allergic to chicken and grain. Follows gentle, sit, lay, come here, potty-pee, bathroom- poop, speak, commands (however sometimes she is a little stubborn and may like to talk back while doing the commands lol.) She has accidents from time to time but for the most part she is house trained. she comes with a metal cage, toys, water bowl, and the bag of food she eats now. Any other request please let me know.

Jaxie is a 4 year old female, American Pit Bull Terrier, spayed, micro-chipped & up to date on all vaccines, all vet records available. Jaxie is an extremely sweet & loving girl who deserves a forever home that is full of love & attention. Our otherJaxie loves kids & people in general, she loves to cuddle up on the couch or bed if allowed, she really just loves being with her people whether inside, outside or in the car. Jaxie knows her basic commands, walks well on her leash & is continuing to learn more as we continue to work with her. Jaxie likes treats & praise when she is being worked with. Jaxie is an amazing, sweet, cuddling girl who will be a remarkable & loving new addition to the family. Jaxie does need to be an only pet as does our other dog. We adopted Jaxie from Louisville Metro Animal House & Jaxie started to open up & our other dog started having resource guarding issues & she is showing resource guarding as well. They both need to be an only pets.

Story
Delia Deetz. AKA Momma Dog. AKA Momma. AKA Dog Dog. We are moving 10/31 and we are unable to take her with us unfortunately. She's a 5 year old, 70 pound house cow. She's a complete love bug. She will give you all the cuddles and kisses you could ever want and then some. She loves to play and is extremely sassy. She needs to be an only dog. I believe she is ok with cats based on her interactions with our neighbors cat. Good with children! I am not sure about younger children but she has been around my nephew since he was 7 and she's always very gentle with him. She loves to run and would do well in someplace with a backyard, which is something I am unable to provide for her at this time in my life. She is spayed, chipped, and house trained.

Bam Bam is a 7 year old dog. We got him when his family moved and they couldn’t keep him due to breed. My husband new position at GE does not allow him to be home and take care of Bam Bam the way he should be so we are re-home him. We are hoping he can go to an active person or family that can walk him and let him play regularly. He also loves attention and cuddles. He can do basic commands because he had a basic training class. He has been around cats and other dogs and does fine.

Story
Cupcake is a 9 year old, pittie mix female. She weighs all of 40 lbs, so she's petite. Unlike so many others, we know a little about her. She originally came from TN. We know, because we pulled her. That was back in 2017. We did what we always do. We found a great family and we adopted her. Fast forward to 2024. Clearly her life took a few twists and turns and she was spotted - and then trapped - in Iroquois Park. No attempts to claim her followed so she's officially back in our program. Thank goodness for microchips! When she was wanded, the number came straight to us and she was able to sidestep a trip to Louisville Metro. The volunteers are getting to know her. She's a favorite! Someone took care of her and someone loved her because she can't get enough attention. She is very well behaved and not bothered by the company of other dogs. She is in great health and she's willing to give this a go, again! If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application. Please visit our website at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com and click on Cupcakes'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
Rubble is 9 months old now. We got him at 7 weeks old and he is such a good boy. He’s a big boy too at75lbs! Unfortunately he doesn’t get along with our other dog, who is a male Jack Russell. We also have 2 adult cats, 1 male and 1 female, and he hasn’t shown any major sign of aggression towards them but more like he wants to play or is curious by them. From what we’ve been able to gather since raising him from a pup is that he needs a home where he is the only animal, just to be on the safe side. He is great with people, even strangers to the home. And he is great with kids as well that live in the home with him. Rubble loves to fetch and tug outside with you and he loves to snuggle and be a big heavy weighted blanket for you as well! This is our first time having to do anything like this and we put the $20 adoption fee on him to weed out people who aren’t serious and want to abuse his breed. Thank you for taking time to look into our boy and take care.
