Story
Looking for an excellent dog and companion, but also a great potential protection dog or competition dog? Look no further than Mia, our 2-year-old German Shepherd/Malanois mix. This breed makes a loyal and devoted companion. They tend to be a little more level headed like the German Shepherd and are not as overly active as the Malinois and they are easier to live with as a house pet. Mia came to us when her owner decided he was too busy to devote to her the time she deserved. She has completed her basic command and manner training in Camp K-9 at the Kentucky State Reformatory. Her inmate handler describes her as having medium energy. She enjoys walks, playtime with dogs and humans, and playing with her own toys. She is house trained and crate trained. She does alert at strangers sometimes. Mia has a clean bill of health and is up to date on vaccines and is on flea/tick and heart worm prevention. She is microchipped. Mia needs an owner with experience with dogs of her breed or large dog experience. No cats and no children in the home. If you would like to meet Mia, please fill out an application on our website.

Story
Let us introduce you to Kayla, a 3-year-old German Shepherd who weighs a whopping 65 pounds! She’s a smart, loving, and active pup who’s ready to find her forever home. Kayla has been with us for two years now, but we’re not sure why she’s still here. She’s a gorgeous dog who gets along great with other young male dogs. She enjoys the company of “her” people, so she’d be perfect as an only pet too! She’s got a great work ethic, so an owner with working breed experience would be a great fit. Kayla’s perfect home would be with an active, adult family (she’d be happy with older kids too) and a yard that’s physically fenced in. If you’re interested in adopting KAYLA, please submit an application at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com.

Story
Meet DELTA, a 3-year-old German Shepherd-Pit Bull mix female. She weighs 63 pounds. Delta is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventative. Like many German Shepherds, Delta enjoys a “job.” She’s smart, focused, and very athletic. Her ears are her most impressive physical feature - they’re always held high and on alert! Her most endearing personality trait is her love for water and deflated basketballs. If you’re a lake person or have an old basketball around, she’s your girl! She’ll keep you entertained for hours. Delta would be a perfect fit for an active adult with a fenced-in yard. She’s a bit of a diva and doesn’t do well with cats or dogs or other animals. She’ll be overjoyed to have her “person” and become your most loyal companion. If you’re interested in adopting Delta, please fill out our application. Visit our website at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com and click on DELTA’s picture in “Adoptable Dogs.” You’ll also find some helpful adoption FAQs there. We’ll schedule meet-and-greets with approved applicants based on our “best family fit” approach. Thanks for considering adopting DELTA!

Story
Meet Joplin! This stunning girl is as sweet as they come! Joplin is incredibly gentle, eager to please, and one of the smartest dogs we’ve met. She constantly seeks direction and picks up commands quickly, making her an absolute joy to work with. Joplin adores kids—she truly lights up when they’re around, soaking up every bit of attention and affection. She’s also been a perfect house guest so far—no accidents in her crate, well-mannered on walks, and naturally polite in public. In fact, she’s already received countless compliments on her incredible behavior! She intuitively sits and stays when people or cars pass, proving just how naturally well-behaved she is. While she’s still a little timid and likes to tuck herself away at times, she gains confidence when working on commands and seems to thrive with guidance. She’s learning to trust and adjust, and with patience, love, and structure, she’s going to blossom into an even more incredible companion. If you’re looking for a smart, loving, kid-friendly pup who just gets how to be a great dog, Joplin is your girl! Could she be the perfect fit for your home? If you’re interested in adopting, our process begins with the submission of OUR online application at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com, or email us if you submitted an application within the last six months. We review and schedule meets (with approved applicants only) based on the order received. Keep in mind these are young puppies with a life expectancy of up to 15 years. Our guiding principle for adoptions is to seek the right fit for family and for dog, including a home that can stay committed to him/her for life.

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Young
Louisville, KY
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Zoey is a beautiful young sable German Shepherd female estimated around 5-6 years of age. Zoey was a stray and we unfortunately do not know her history but Zoey is happily looking forward to having a family of her own.    Zoey is a playful and rambunctious girl. Her favorite activities include playing in muddy ponds, getting all the love, and inappropriately barking at unknown dogs and people. Zoey is learning how to navigate the world and make new human friends. While Zoey can be a very friendly and social girl she is at a critical point in her life known as the 'fear period' and can struggle with reactivity when meeting new people. It is extremely important that Zoey have a confident, experienced, handler that can compassionately guide her through the safe socialization she needs in order to learn how to navigate the world kindly. Zoey is very much a puppy and while eager to please she is still figuring out what is expected of her and how to rise to those expectations. Zoey has been great meeting volunteers with the guidance of her foster home and with those she knows is a very loving, playful girl. She has enjoyed going on hikes around private property and exploring ponds and mud puddles. Zoey is an active and athletic girl who is going to require ongoing exercise and structure to ensure her growth into a well rounded adult Shepherd. Zoey would be a great running companion, hiking buddy, and would likely excel in a number of dog sports. Zoey is NOT suitable for a home with children at this time.    Zoey is still figuring out other dogs and how to interact in a polite manner. Zoey can be very vocal when she meets new dogs and was defensive with other dogs when she arrived at her foster home. She has since settled in and is able to enjoy playgroups with other young Shepherds as well as group hikes. Zoey is slowly figuring out that she can play appropriately and doing a great job. Zoey will require ongoing structured socialization and guidance to maintain her progress as she is at an age of development where her socialization both in and out of the house is vital. Zoey is NOT friendly with cats or small dogs as she has shown a very high prey drive with both.    Zoey is a young, eager to please, and outgoing Shepherd who is searching for an active, loving, and adventurous home to give her the guidance and love she needs to grow into an even more wonderful companion. If you're the home for Zoey please email Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 8:53 pm

Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Layla is a stunning female German Shepherd who is estimated around 5 years of age. Layla was a stray therefore we do not know her history or background prior to arrival at the shelter.     Layla is a fun girl who doesn't seem to understand the purpose of humans outside of meal times. She is aloof and generally seems to not understand why the other dogs would bother with human attention - after all humans are only good for their opposable thumbs. Layla defaults to ignoring people unless solicited for attention in which case she is happy to entertain her adoring fans. Layla has a diva energy about her and definitely thinks she runs the shows sometimes. Layla does not typically seek attention or playtime and prefers to chill out and do her own thing.  Layla has had very limited interactions with children at this time but has done well with the few she has met.        Layla is fostering with other dogs and enjoys being the bossy supervisor of anything they do. She tends to ignore the dogs 98% of the time but in the instance that she catches them playing or being too energetic she is quick to be the fun police. Her version of fun is being the fun police it seems and most dogs do not appreciate her reprimands. She gets along well with the more laid back dogs and those that tolerate her controlling nature. She would likely prefer being an only dog or with older, laid back, dogs. Layla is not good with cats or small dogs.        Layla is a beautiful girl who is looking for a patient home that will guide her in becoming a loved family member. If you're the home for Layla please email Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com or visit Tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 8:53 pm

Story
Merv is a handsome young male German Shepherd estimated around 2.5 years old. Merv was a stray so we do not know his history or background prior to arrival at the shelter.    Merv is a social, outgoing boy who happily brings joy and entertainment wherever he goes. He is a beautiful and energetic boy but not always the smartest cookie in the bunch. Merv is people-centric and is an eager to please guy who thrives on guidance from his humans. He has a big heart and is looking to someone to be his 'person'. Merv is an active dog and would be a phenomenal hiking or jogging companion. While he isn't constantly on the go, he isn't a couch potato either. Merv has only been around kids 10 + years of age but he has done well with them.    Merv prefers to be the main character in this storyline and isn't looking to share his home with other dogs. Merv has been able to acclimate to living with other dogs in his foster home but still struggles with reactivity and requires diligent supervision of his interactions with the other dogs. He has greatly improved his leash manners and is doing better at ignoring dogs in public as well.  Merv is NOT friendly towards cats or small dogs.    Merv is a beautiful, sweet young guy who is looking for some much needed guidance and love to help him thrive as a good canine citizen.

Story
Gia is a female German Shepherd around 5 years of age. Gia was kept as a backyard dog and struggles with barrier reactivity. She was surrendered to the shelter after getting out of her yard and nipping a jogger.   Gia is a very sweet, loyal girl who is learning how to expand her social circle. Gia adores those she knows and has been an outgoing, friendly girl with all of the volunteers she has met. Gia thinks she is a lap dog and loves to get attention - especially butt scratches. Gia is generally a well mannered girl but does struggle with barrier reactivity around her crate and fences. She can be a pretty vocal, wild girl in this situations but calms down quickly once out or redirected. Gia has not been around children to our knowledge.   Gia does great with the other dogs in her foster home. She is appropriate and friendly with the other dogs although she isn't very playful. She isn't one to romp or roughhouse that we've seen but she does a great job navigating the other dogs in the yard. Gia has NOT been cat tested.   Gia is a big, loving girl who is looking for an experienced home that can help her continue to grow her social circle and improve on her FOMO when crated.

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Avery is an adorable German Shepherd mix around 10 years of age. Avery was originally with us as a young adult dog when she came through the shelter as a stray. Avery spent the last 8 years in a pet home that surrendered her for no fault of her own. Avery is looking for a retirement home to enjoy her golden years with.    Avery is a very sweet girl that practices the art of being a wallflower in new social situations. She is not the sort to immediately be your best friend but she isn't rude either - she just prefers people she knows. Once Avery has decided you are 'in' then you are in for life and she wants to be part of anything you are doing. She is still a pretty active girl for her age and enjoys supervising yard chores, going on walks, and of course decompressing with your favorite TV show. Avery has been around kids 8 years and up with no issue but does prefer the calmer, more settled kids overall.    Avery doesn't mind other dogs and is mostly indifferent to them. She had not been around other dogs in her previous home so she was a bit defensive with them in her foster home but has adjusted well to them. She is not one to play and will appropriately reprimand the younger dogs for getting too pushy with her. Avery has been around barn cats which she wants to chase but also doesn't want to catch - she gets excited when she sees them from a distance but when they are in close quarters in the barn she ignores them. She could likely adjust to sharing the home with cats but may need some guidance.    Overall, Avery is a kind-hearted senior who has had her life turned upside down and is looking for a soft place to land. If you have room in your home and heart for this sweet little mixed breed gremlin email us at Tierhavenrescue@gmail.com for an adoption application or visit Tierhaven.rescuegroups.org for FAQs.    ** The last few photos are of Avery as a young adult when she was first with us **Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 8:53 pm

Story
LuLu -Paws Behind Bars Trained Lulu is Belgian Shepherd mix, and as such, she is a smart, athletic, bundle of energy. Our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program has been beneficial to setting LuLu up for success . She quickly mastered her obedience training and is able to work on her social skills in all different kinds of situations. LuLu will do best in a home with an owner who has working dog experience. We already see that If LuLu isn't "working, she is looking for puppy mischief. She will need plenty of physical AND mental exercise. At her age, she can be successfully introduced to other dog(s) in the home but we are recommending young male dogs. We do not think she's a good fit for small children or cats. Her home will need a fenced in yard. Most importantly, she needs an owner who will maintain her training and understand her high drive to please and "work". IMPORTANT: Please Keep in mind LuLu is under an year old with a life expectancy of 12 + years. Our guiding principle for adoptions is to seek the right fit for our rescues and the families, including a home that can stay committed to the animal for life. If interested in adopting, our process begins with the submission of OUR online application which can be found at www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com. Additional adoption FAQ's can be found there also.
