Story
Kane is such a laid back gentle giant. All he wants to do is chill, sleep, and repeat. He’s become such a relaxed guy who just likes hanging out. When he first came to rescue in February 2023, he was a bit of a wild child. But since decompressing from shelter life, he has shown that all he wants is to be loved by his people, and to catch some sunshine here and there. Honestly, who can blame him? Kane is fully vetted, meaning he’s already up to date on vaccines, neutered, microchipped, and kept on monthly prevention. He is crate and house trained (although he does require a steel crate). And loves absolutely everyone he meets. He would do best in a home with kids over 12, as he is a big, strong boy who doesn’t quite understand how big he is. He’s great with other dogs who are more on the chill side, but does need a home without cats. This boy is a lounger, so a fenced in yard is preferred, but is not a deal breaker. He just likes to lay outside in the sun on the patio. Since being in his foster home, Kane has come SUCH a long way with his training! He now knows sit, paw, watch me, stay, come, and has greatly improved his leash manners. And if this list of commands aren’t enough, he’s INCREDIBLY treat motivated, so teaching him more is a breeze! Interested in making Kane part of your forever family? You can apply to adopt at www.lexpitcrew.org/adopt His adoption fee is now completely sponsored ($0 to adopter) thanks to a generous donor!

Story
Hawk is a 2.5-year-old staffie mix that came to us on the day he was set to be euthanized at Memphis Animal Services. This beautiful boy is around 70lbs, but is a short, stout guy! Despite his beefy looks, this boy is an absolute sweetheart. He absolutely loves his canine foster brother, but due to now showing too much playful interest with the resident cat, it has been decided it’s best to find him a home with no kitty friends. He does love all the people he has met, and is an absolute ham! Unfortunately, Hawk is a bit too protective of his adult humans once he bonds to them, and he needs to be in a home with no children. If you are interested in making Hawk part of your forever family, you can apply to adopt at www.lexpitcrew.org/adopt. His adoption fee is fully sponsored!

Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Valhalla is an approximately 3–year-old Staffordshire Terrier mix girl that we thought had found her forever home, but unfortunately has made her way back to us after showing that she would be much better suited to life in an only-dog home. Valhalla is a sweet little goof ball with so much personality! She loves to play with her family, and keeps everyone laughing as she appeases everyone’s need for pets and snuggles. She’s definitely people and attention driven, as she is the biggest people pleaser you will ever meet! Valhalla does need to be the only pet in the home. She has shown that her prey drive is too great to be around little dogs or cats, and she is a bit too jealous of even bigger dogs in her space. She is potty trained and crate trained, but does need a secure fenced in yard in her forever home. Unfortunately, we do not have any open foster homes for Valhalla to come back to, so she is having to make her way track to boarding until a foster or adopter can be found. This can be quite challenging, as only-animal homes are very hard to come by. However, we promise if you take a chance on this girl, she will repay the love ten-fold! If you can open your home to foster this girl, you can apply to foster through the link in our bio! Fostering is FREE, as we take care of all food, vetting, crate, collars, leashes, etc. you could need! You just provide the love and the occasional ride to adoption events. If you think this sweet girl would fit in your forever family, you can apply to adopt at www.lexpitcrew.org/adopt Her adoption fee is fully sponsored!

Story
NO CATS!Hey you! Yeah, you! Hi! I'm Tank and I am ready to be your best friend! Like, seriously, you've never met anyone like me before! I am the happiest boy you've ever met! I'm a foodie too, but I take my treats and cookies very gently. I am an absolute CHAMP at sitting and I can't wait to learn more cool tricks! I am looking for a home without any kitties though, I find them a little bit too tempting. I haven't met any dog friends here yet, so if you have one at home I'd like to meet them first, just to make sure we can all get along. Think I could your next PAWsome adventure buddy? Give my friends at the Adoption Center at call at 859-873-5491 to find out more about me or to schedule an appointment to meet me!

Georgetown, KY

Good with kids, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
CeCe is a really sweet, petite girl who just wants to find her own humans to love. Her foster family describes her as, adorable, playful, low-maintenance, and affectionate! Although we dont know for sure because she was found as a stray, we believe CeCe is about 5-6 years old. She weighs 45 pounds. CeCe has loved every human she meets, including children, and does well in public. She tends to be selective about her canine friends but can slowly warm up to other dogs. She seems to prefer puppies or any older dog who can simply co-exist with her. We think CeCe would do best with only 1-2 dogs maximum in the home, especially if theyre laid back. We recently cat-tested CeCe and she did well! If her hopeful forever home has a cat(s), slow intros would definitely be best. CeCe's adoption fee has been fully sponsored ($0)! If you're interested in adopting, please submit an application at savedbyfate.org and we'll be in touch ASAP! A meet with any approved applicant's current pets and entire family will be required prior to starting the 2-week adoption trial period. Please visit our website savedbyfate.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.
