Story
Bandit is a great little guy! He showed up at our house one day in 2023. We tried to find his owner. No one claimed him. My daughter decided to keep him. She lives in a small condo and works all day. Bandit didn’t do well cooped up all day. He has. LOT of energy. Loves to run and play. My husband and I decided to try to keep him with us. We have 2 acres & there is usually someone home to let him stay out of the crate. My aging father lives with us & he hates indoor pets. He just cannot tolerate the dog. Bandit is pretty typical for his breed I think. He is playful, loving, and cuddly. He loves his blankets and crate at night. He barks at cars in the driveway, strangers, and doorbells/knocks at the door. It takes him a minute to get comfortable with strangers. It seems to me, people who are more comfort with dogs do better with him. He barks until he realizes it’s safe. I think he is trying to protect us. He’s a sweet little guy.

Story
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 have been at the Humane Society for almost 2.5 years now! I came here in December of 2021 after some bad storms and tornados damaged the shelter I was previously at. I was really shy at first, but my friends here have helped me come out of my shell! I like to try and fit into my their 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 would prefer to be the only animal in the home! 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 (I love fluffy beds and toys, wink, wink) Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 with any questions!

Story
NO DOGSNO CATSNO SMALL CHILDRENENERGY LEVEL: HighPersonality/PHYSICAL TRAITS: Happy, Exuberant, AthleticHi, I'm Rivka! I'm a looking for my perfect new forever home! I love to run around and play! I'd love a yard where I can just take off and have the zoomies! I've just started to learn my manners, but I'm working on it very diligently! I'm not very good at interacting with kids yet, so I would probably do better in a home without small children. I would prefer to be the only pet in the home, too, but this way I can be super spoiled and get lots of love! I would love an active family that has room on the couch for end of day cuddles. Think we could be perfect for each other? Come meet me at Woodford Humane or call 859-873-5491 to find out more about me!

Story
Hey! I'm Rum! I'm a goofy boy with such a big heart and cannot wait to find my forever home! I love playing and would love to find a home where I can do lots of zoomies! I would love to find a family that will help me learn some manners and cool tricks. Will work for treats! I would love to have a meet & greet with your pup first if you already have one at home to see if we could be the bestest of buds. I'm really excited to meet you, and if the feeling is mutual, give Woodford Humane Society a call at 859-873-5491 to schedule an appointment to meet me or with any questions!
