Pets Are Worth Saving TN

We are a 501 (c)(3) non profit organization based out of Clarksville, TN that consists of three board members and a handful of local volunteers. We are a cooperative rescue group bonded by our great common love for animals. We rescue pets (mostly dogs) across the state of TN and areas of KY that are in close proximity to us. Most of the pets we rescue do come from kill shelters or are going to go into a kill shelter if not rescued. We try to help pregnant dogs, nursing moms, or litters of puppies no older than 10 weeks of age. If any puppies are not adopted out through us by 12 weeks of age, we put them onto transport up north with North Shore Animal League to make room for the next litter in need. We adopt out the mama dogs and, also, rescue single puppies and adults as room allows. We are not a breed specific rescue. We may also be found on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/PetsAreWorthSavingpawsTn#!/PetsAreWorthSavingpawsTn. Our pets available for adoption are listed here, and we also post other pets across the state of TN who are in shelters or other unfortunate circumstances in hopes that they may be adopted or rescued. We are always in need of great local foster homes (both short and long term) as well as event volunteers. Please e-mail us at petsareworthsavingtn@live.com if you would like to help with our pets. Our Petfinder link and additional info can be
found at www.pawstn.com.
