Xena is a 4 year old, female Doberman Pinscher that weighs 80lbs. She was picked up, very thin, as a stray and we can't imagine why someone wasn't out looking for her! She is an absolute doll.

Her first month or two with us she was with a great foster. While in foster, she just continued to amaze. She does very well with other dogs, proved to be already crate, leash and house trained. She has a nice, moderate energy level and she's very willing to please.

Just to really give her every chance at a great life, we enrolled her in our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program. Here, she is living with her inmate 24/7. She is a very quick study and has mastered basic obedience.

Xenas forever family must have a physically fenced yard and no cats in the home.

This girl is a treasure and will make a wonderful family companion. If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application.

Adopt Me! partners with Luther Luckett Correctional Facility to run the Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program. Twelve inmates are on staff to obedience train 12 of our dogs. Each dog stays for a couple of months. They are then adopted to their forever home with a new "leash" on life. The program is truly a win, win, win for the dogs, the inmates and the family!

Meet all the current Adoptable Paws Behind Bars Dogs! Please click on each picture to read more about their fantastic personalities.

Our adoption process begins with submission of our adoption application!

https://www.adoptmebluegrasspetrescue.com/adopt/shelterluv-dogs.html

Meet and Greets are arranged with approved applicants only.

AdoptMe!’s primary goal is to find the best "fit" for each of the animals in our care so that they are never rehomed, again. Our adoption decisions are based on this philosophy.

05/09/2024

NICO is a 7 year old male, Shepherd mix.

He is impeccably obedience trained by the inmates of our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program. He adopted out by us when he was one and through no fault of his own, he came back last year. He has a nice moderate energy level and he's very loyal to "his person". He requires an owner with dog experience and someone willing to build that mutual respect. Due to his breed, Nico appreciates a task that's his. In the prison, he helps his inmate raise puppies. He looks like a tough guy, but he's got a big, soft spot for the littles.

Nico will do best in an adult home with a fenced yard. HIs ADOPTION FEES ARE WAIVED!

If interested in adopting, our process begins with submission of our application.

‼️FOSTERS NEEDED‼️
🚨🆘PLEASE SHARE🆘🚨

We never thought we would see the day that our Paws Behind Bars Dogs were ready to graduate and not be adopted yet! Adoption rates are at an all time low NATIONWIDE. In years past, dogs in our program were “pre adopted” with a waitlist prior to graduation. The new adoption climate means we can’t continue to “Rescue” without FOSTERS!

The dogs below are graduating this week and need a foster home so they can maintain their training!

These dogs are crate trained, potty trained and obedience trained! Pretty awesome fosters if you ask us!

If you are interested in fostering please click the link below and fill out our foster application. We provide food, supplies and veterinary care!

Meet LACEY - Paws Behind Bars Trained

‼️Please review profile description to confirm that you are an appropriate candidate and that your lifestyle matches the pup you are applying for‼️

LACEY is a 4-year-old female Boxer mix who weighs 55 lbs. She has recently come into our program, and she's an instant favorite!

She is unique in so many ways. She has the appearance of a Boxer, yet her coat indicates something else. It is velvet soft and plush. She is heavily speckled all over, like a Spaniel. Most of all, she has a personality that grabs you right away. She is that charming! She smiles and will readily give hugs and kisses!

We are testing her for crate, leash, and house-training skills. So far, she seems to have most of that well underway. Her social skills are good. She has never met a stranger! We are giving her plenty of opportunity to meet other dogs (on leash for now), and she's been fine. If we had to guess, her best canine companion would be a younger, male dog. Her overall energy level is moderate, and, in our world, that's a huge plus!

Her perfect home? A fenced yard with an active family.
IMPORTANT: Please Keep in mind Lacey is 4 years 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.

Our adoption process begins with submission of our online adoption application.

There's a lot of buzz from the school kids about "The First 100 Days of School." Why? Because it means they're halfway through their academic year, and they are taking the opportunity to celebrate what they've learned!

For Adopt Me's adult dogs, "The First 100 Days in Rescue" is just as significant. Few come out of shelters "perfect.” Many have health or behavioral issues. Many are shut down and bewildered. It takes us 100 days to get to know them. If we are to place them properly for their final, forever home, the first 100 days is all about careful preparation.

Adopt Me! would like to share and celebrate with you the following "100+ day stories.” Kayla, Pippin, Freya, Joker, and Manny have achieved their first 100 days and they are now ready for adoption!
Please LIKE & SHARE their stories!

❤️Are you Miska's Valentine???❤️

Miska has hit her 500 day mark in rescue and we still cannot figure out why!! Those ears? That smile? Prison trained?!?!? And that coat .. so SOFT! We cant believe it! Miska is the best girl, high energy, but a snuggle bug on the couch.

She gets so much love and attention at the rescue, but nothing that would compare to her very own home. She is growing tired of the kennel life but is still patiently waiting for her perfect someone to come and scoop her right up.

She has been through all the holidays by herself, can you be her valentine and be with her through the rest? ❤️🩷

Meet BOLT - Paws Behind Bars Prison Dog Trained
BOLT is a 5 year old male, husky mix that weighs 45 lbs. And yes, he has one brown eye and one blue eye. He is one of many adults that find themselves homeless in the shelter. His energy level is high, but his temperament is excellent so he's the perfect dog for our Paws Behind Bars prison dog training program. Here, he'll receive obedience training and the proper amount of exercise (a critical consideration for anyone interested in huskies). We'll also get the opportunity to get to fully understand his temperament. These dogs live with their inmate 24/7. The one-on-one attention goes a long way to helping us tell the adopter just what to expect.

Bolt should be graduating sometime in February and he's available for adoption now. For an approved applicant, we will be happy to do a mid-term meet and greet.

Meet MANNY!

🧡Paws Behind Bars Dog🧡

Manny is a 5 year old, mixed breed male that weighs 65 lbs. He is currently participating in our Paws Behind Bars Prison Dog Training program. He has a nice moderate energy level!

He came to us from a local shelter and was found with 3 other adults that looked just like him. Manny was the shyest of the group and while we find him to be "reserved", once he knows you he's the biggest lap dog out there. The prison program will help us get to know his temperament better. Regarding obedience, his inmate is figuring out what motivates him. While most dogs have food at the top of their list, Manny would much rather be rewarded with belly rubs.

We have DNA tested him so we'll be able to share what breeds are in there. It's easy to see many! He'll be ready to go home early February.
