About Black Dog Rescue of Tennessee
We are a self-funded, family run rescue for primarily black dogs. Our rescue was inspired by our beautiful black pointer (whom we rescued) Abby. Abby died unexpectedly of pneumonia and we were heartbroken. We all felt that she was so happy to be rescued by us, that she would want us to continue to find homes for other black dogs.
We concentrate on black dogs because they are usually the last dogs to be adopted. In addition to finding homes for the dogs, we do our best to educate the public about the plight of homeless dogs, and in particular, the plight of black dogs.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
