PawPrints Animal Rescue Inc

PawPrints Animal Rescue was founded in 2015 in the Northern Kentucky area by a group of five dedicated people with a passion for animals. Our goal is to save as many lives as we can by saving all breeds of dog and cats that are at risk of euthanasia in area shelters. With the help of an amazing group of volunteers, all animals are fostered in loving homes until they are adopted. We are an all volunteer organization and rely on donations from the public to cover medical expenses and necessary supplies.

Meet Mickey

Name:  Mickey Age: 9 years Weight: 14 lbs Adoption Fee: $250.00 Good with Dogs?  Yes, other low energy dogs  Good with cats?  Yes  Meet  Mickey , a 9-year-old Shih Tzu with a heart full of love. Despite his blindness and deafness,  Mickey  navigates life with a goofy grin and a mellow attitude. His gentle nature makes him the perfect companion. He may not see or hear you, but he feels your presence, your touch, your kindness. And he will find you if you have food!    Mickey  is a testament to resilience, showing us that joy can be found even in the face of challenges. His happy demeanor and gentle spirit make him an exceptional friend.  Mickey  does well with other low energy dogs, cats, and even made friends with the bunny in his foster home. He's potty trained and loves going for walks. He's also a big fan of toys and enjoys playing just as much as enjoys snuggling up in a comfy bed.    Due to glaucoma,  Mickey  had surgery to remove both his eyes. Once he's healed up, he'll feel much better without the pain and pressure. Blind dogs do very well and it’s easy to forget they can’t see because they navigate around the home so well. To keep him happy and healthy Mickey needs  allergy meds that cost about $45 a month.  Mickey is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, and micro chipped. His adoption fee is $250.00.   He’d love to have a home for the holidays!
