Mercedes is a 5 year old terrier/whippet mix at the Woodford Humane Society in Versailles, KY. She has to be the most patient dog we have ever had, because get this: Mercedes has been waiting for a home since January 21, 2009. Not a typo; her 4 year anniversary with us is coming up in January. We think part of the reason Mercedes gets overlooked is that she is a very athletic (and bouncy) dog, and when new people come into the kennel, her first reaction is often to show off how high she can jump. She’s not crazy, we swear! Once she’s out of the kennel, she’s more interested in belly rubs than anything else.
Mercedes has already spent 3 holiday seasons at our adoption center, and the best gift EVER, for her and for us, would be for her to finally be in her forever home by Christmas. She’s looking for a single-pet, indoor home and would make a great running partner or agility dog. Her petfinder profile is here and her adoption fee has been sponsored!

She is beautiful. If I didnt already have 2 dogs, I’d snatch her up. Hope she gets her forever home soon….

Adoptable Fridays isn’t too useful if it isn’t providing any information about where these dogs are or who to contact!!

Just klick on the Petfinder Profile Link and you’ll get all the information you need, dear Dan! 😉

Maybe a quick edit to the CSS to highlight the links would help! I found it hard to see as well until my mouse changed.

🙁 oh I am in love…and in FL. Does she not get along with other dogs? I have a pomeranian with that same personality.

oh I LOVE her. too bad I’m in the wrong side of the country, and I already have one rescue dog who doesn’t play well with others.
