Rescue FAQs

.We serve primarily East and Mid Tenn plus helping as many animals as we can find room for from surrounding states.
We adopt both locally and out of state depending on the particular situation and how feasible it is to verify the appropriateness of the adopter and safely getting the animal transported.

Additional adoption info

We charge an adoption fee to defray some of the costs of medical care for the animals. We require all potential adopters to fill out an application. We also reserve the right to do a home visit before releasing a dog for adoption.
