Story
I got Bentley at the Bowling Green/Warren County Humane Society in July 2023 on my way home from college. I lived at home with my parents and sister and worked from home as well. In February of this year, I moved into my own house by myself. In May, I started a new job that required me to be in office around 10 hours every day. As much as it breaks my heart, I just do not have the time to spend with him that he deserves anymore. He's an amazing dog and a great companion, house trained, good with other dogs, and loves to sleep in! I would love to find Bentley the home he deserves and am happy to answer any questions.

Story
We first adopted Sofie in Baltimore, MD when she was a puppy. We were attracted by her sweet nature (via jumping on our laps and giving licks to the face). We have another dog, cat, and a child in our home. Sofie does well with our cat, and for the most part does well with our other dog. However, recently there have been instances where the dogs have gotten into fights. With a new child in our home, we feel there is too much risk to allow these fights to continue, though we love both of our dogs dearly. Sofie is incredibly loyal and a highly trainable dog. She loves to play tug a war and chase after frisbees. She would benefit from being the only dog in the home, with an owner who prioritizes her training/play. Sofie would be best in a home without young children. She is 6 years old and has so much love to give to the right home.

Story
Meet Leona! Leona is a 5 year old cattle dog/pitbull mix. Leona needs a home with no cats or small animals and no small children. She is still very much a puppy and loves to play. She loves people and loves to give kisses. She would do best in a fenced in yard. If you would like to make Leona a part of your family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org  LEONA'S ADOPTION FEE IS $170   *Due to Covid 19 restrictions some of our new intakes vet scheduling has been delayed. We will still go ahead and schedule your meet and greet even if all the vetting needed has not been completed. Once vetting is complete the approved adopter will be able to take their dog/cat home to their forever home.The 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!    November 4, 2024, 9:21 am

Story
Meet Judge! Judge is a 5 year old Heeler/Pitbull mix (our best guess) Judge wants a job and aims to please, so he needs a firm handler to do training with him. He loves to be with people and walks pretty well on a leash. He does not do well with cats and does okay with dogs, but does seem to be the alpha dog, so slow introductions are a must. Judge also would need a tall panel fence as he can be an escape artist.  If you want to give Judge a forever home, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org    JUDGES ADOPTION FEE IS $170The shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs.

Sugar

Australian Cattle Dog

Female, 4 yrs
Louisville, KY
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sweet as Sugar fits this girl well! Her elderly owner passed away leaving her and two other housemates without a place to go! This beautiful girl ended up in a rural shelter which is absolutely no place for a beloved pet! Her collar read "Daddy's GIrl" when she was turned in and we're sure her dad never expected her to end up in a locked up pen. Blue Ridge Animal Rescue pulled her and her housemate into rescue and they have never looked back! She is enjoying spending one on one time with her Paws Behind Bars dog trainer and relishing in the attention! She is also learning to walk well on a leash as she is pretty strong and had no previous leash training. Sugar is also working on commands such as sit, down and stay! She does well with other dogs, has been fostered with three others and should make someone a wonderful lifelong companion! She is losing weight (intake had her in the "butterball" category) and currently is around 55 pounds and her age is a spry 4-5 years. She's got plenty of love and life yet to go and can't wait to share it with a special family! To inquire or for an adoption application - please email to blueridgerescue@aol.com
