PAWS BEHIND BARS PRISON TRAINING PROGRAM

We love our Paws Behind Bars Prison Training Program at Luther Luckett Correctional Complex in Oldham County, KY!

The inmate handlers are trained at professional levels and meet weekly with our professional trainer and Adopt Me! Bluegrass Pet Rescue staff to successfully maintain their high standard of knowledge and training skills to turn a once homeless and unmannerly dog into a desirable adoptable companion animal!  

Paws Behind Bars trained dogs learn basic social skills, manners and commands.  Commands such as sit, down and "place" are incredibly usefull to an adopting family! The dogs that are chosen to participate in this program are mostly from high kill shelters and picked by Adopt Me! BPR staff as being one that will benefit from the training process. Once completed with training, these wonderful dogs are available to the general public for adoption! 

You can find the available Paws Behind Bars prison trained dogs on this website, Petfinder.com, our Facebook page or Adopt-A-Pet.com.
