He is a strong boy who would enjoy a lots of physical activity. This boy would be an amazing jogging companion. He has been with us a long time.

Bacardi
Male Husky, Shepherd mix about 1 year old. Slim, athletic-looking boy. Very fast runner. He has a wonderful, friendly personality. He is good with other dogs and loves people. He is very agile and would be great for an active family. He loves to run, so if you like to jog, he is your dog. He is a mix of two great working breeds. Bacardi has a soft, mellow personality and a sweet temperament. But he is a very fast runner and a short walk around the block would not be enough for this boy. He is still a pup and need some basic training, but he is a very fast learner and he will be a perfect dog in no time. Both the Husky and the Shepherd in him, make him very loyal to his master with a strong desire to please. This boy has a lot of potential to be wonderful, amazing friend for life.
Jasper
THIS BOY NEEDS HELP!!!!!!! VERY DEPRESSED!!!
Jasper, male Schnauzer mix and Irish wolfhound about 2 years old. Wonderful boy very submissive towards humans. We suspect he was abused physically but he loves his humans so much he is longing to be near you all the time. Jasper needs a strong person who has experience with big breeds as he is strong and he tends to pull on the leash. He is very responsive towards calm training methods and a with a bit of work and patients he will be absolutely wonderful friend for life. All he needs is a chance!!, He is very depressed and he is not doing well in a kennel. He needs to be in a foster or forever home. He is a big baby who will cling to you like a glue just to feel your touch.His huge mellow eyes are full of love but he is now getting more and more withdrawn and he is giving up hope.
He is not great with male dogs but is doing ok with calm, submissive females. This boy needs a chance, can you help us find this boy forever home or temporary home?
Myst
1 year old male, Husky Catahoula Dog mix. This boy is friendly by nature and very playful. He is ok with other dogs.He should be placed in home with older children. He needs some basic obedience to teach him not to jump.
This boy loves to run and talk back to you. He likes to be around humans all the time and he is happy to cuddle with you. He has unique color and his coat is so soft. Very good looking boy, both by nature and his look. He is mixed with two powerful breeds. Both independent and loyal to it's master. Both breeds require strong leadership. The Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog is independent, protective, and territorial. Loving with their family and all people they know well but can be reserved with strangers. Affectionate with his master. The Catahoula is not recommended for an owner who doesn't take the pack leader issue seriously. For the right owner, who understands the importance of structure, leadership, and exercise the Catahoula can make a wonderful pet. They are working dogs as well as hunting, similar to Akita.

Marco
Marco, male Grate Dane mix about 4 years old, who loves humans and is longing to them
even after, we believe he came to KY pound after abuse. Marco came to our rescue severely
underweight but he is slowly starting to look like a dog. Marco is very friendly with all
people but he is not good with dogs and we feel he would be great as the only dog. He was
never properly socialized with his 4 legged friends, so maybe in time he will get better.
We also think he would not do well with cats. Marco did spend weeks in high kill shelter
without hope for survival but we think he is a wonderful dog who will love his humans with
all his heart. He cannot be kept at home in a crate, he is terrified to be locked in.
Lacey
Lacey, young female Amstaff mix saved from KY pound. About 2 years old. Playful, high energy, still a little scared,
but very loving, smart and expressive. Previous owner showed her nothing, but she is learning from the ground up, and quickly.
A little work and Lacey will be a great lifelong companion. We believe she may be mixed with Blue Lacy, a Southern
breed from the region she's from. House-trained, and good with kids. Looking for a home outside Ontario.
Stella
Stella beautiful Rottweiler girl about 9 years old. Left to die in Kentucky pound by her owner. This girl is sweet, gentle, loving and full of life. She's great with dogs and cats.

Christian
Christian is a male Chow Chow Shepherd cross about 2 years old.
He is afraid of humans while being in a cage but he is ok when he is on a loose.
So maybe he has some bad experience while being in a shelter. He has been surrendered by
owner because he was wondering around in the neighborhood. He was never given any attention
but he will be a wonderful dog to right person who is willing to spend time with him.
He is not very sure about people but this natural since he was not really loved and care for.
This is a very dominant breed who requires a dominant owner.
The owner of this breed of dog should be a calm person who is naturally firm, confident, and consistent.

Dexter (adoption pending)
Dexter, male Mastiff, lab mix about 1 year old.
Over all I'm a very calm dog. When I'm with people who love me I become a big teddy bear, and who likes to play nice. When given a treat because I'm a Good Boy (I love to hear those words) I will make sure that I am gentle in taking my reward that you barely feel that I have excepted it. I enjoy getting baths and will not move so that you can wash me all over from head to paws.
I'm housebroken and will wait until I'm taken outside. I walks well on the leash, but I must admit that occasionally I might pulls if I see another friendly dog, since I'm curious and would like to make friends with them. But I don't enjoy having another dog try to dominate me. That is really the only time that you will hear my protest.
When I'm in a situation that I'm unsure. My first sign is a slightly body shake starting with my legs and working it's way up, due to my nerves. I'm sure that many of you can relate to my dis-like of fast movements and loud noises when I get worried, but with a good leader I will allow my leader to take control of the situation and I'll wait for your command to either stay or come on lets walk away.
I'm great with cats and people. But at the moment I haven't been tested with kids and it's not because I don't want to investigate them, just haven't had the opportunity to be around them yet. I'm proud to say that I have learned the commands, like sit, stay and give paw.
All I need is a chance to prove how dedicated I can be and I will try me best to be e perfect dog.

She was rescued with her brother Dexter by IAA.
Ike
Male Akita Border Collie is our guess of his unique mix. He is about 10 months old. Very friendly boy who loves to dominate other dogs but he is not aggressive and that's how he tries to grab the other dog's attention to play. He is not big but vey massive and strong. He needs some training to walk properly on a leash and firmness to show him to not to be dominent with dogs. This boy has great potential; he is friendly, loving and smart. All he needs is some correction and some quality exercise time. He is a great runner, so he would be a wonderful jogging companion. He would also do very well at dog sports. We would suggest an active home for him where he will be able to burn his energy.
Hank
Male Labrador mix around 1,5 years old. Friendly boy. Full of energy. Loves to play and run. He is great with people and plays nicely with other dogs.Hank is a strong boy and he would be great with older children since he still doesn't understand that showing affection should not be by jumping. But we are working on it and he is doing better. He also needs a bit of work with walking on a leash but he is a smart boy and it should not take long for him to learn. This special boy will be great addition to any family.

Rambo
This is Rambo. He is 7 years old. He was just discarded like an old cardboard by his owners to the kill shelter. He knows that his family does not want him anymore. Rambo is very, very sad and broken. He has resigned to fate, his heart completely shattered. We can never understand the pain Rambo is carrying in his heart now.
Rambo knows he can never hold a candle to the younger ones. He has nothing except a resigned fate of living the rest of his life in loneliness and carrying his broken heart to his last breath.
We hope someone out there will see Rambo through the eyes of an opened heart. Rambo needs a home. Or he will die of a broken heart in the kennel.
Love, warmth and a home... that’s all he needs.
Whisky
Boxers are happy, high-spirited, playful, curious and energetic dogs. But not Whisky…
Whisky was abandoned by her family. Her life forcefully ended feeling terrified, alone and unloved.
Whisky is showing signs of depression. She's been lethargic, sleeps a lot, and keeps her distance unless you call her over. Despite all this, she has a very good temperament. She is eating well, going potty regularly.
What Whisky needs is love and affection. She may not just snap out of it on her own, but given a little effort and patience, she'll regain her emotional footing.
Please consider Whisky to become your best friend and loyal companion. She will do okay in an apartment if sufficiently exercised.
