My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Duke, the lovable goofball with boundless energy and a heart as big as his hound-mix frame! Despite his size, Duke is a 5-6 year old gentle giant who adores both playtime and cuddle sessions on the couch. He's the perfect balance of fun-loving and laid-back. He loves attention, loves lying in the sun, and playing with toys. Duke is housetrained, likes other dogs and a great car rider. He does not enjoy the company of cats- believing them to be no fun at all.

Duke has had a bit of a rough patch, as he was once heartworm positive. He has received treatment and doing well. . During his time in boarding, Duke's appetite waned a bit, but with some TLC, he's eager to regain a healthy weight and bounce back to his full, happy self.

One of Duke's most endearing qualities is his infectious personality. He's always wearing a smile and has a penchant for greeting everyone with his signature hound howl, which is sure to bring a smile to your face. Luckily he barks very little, when he does it's absolutely precious.

If you're looking for a furry companion who embodies the spirit of adventure and relaxation all in one, Duke is your guy. Come meet this charming hound mix and see if you're a match made in heaven!

Additional adoption info

Who says you can't buy love? Our adoption rates say different. Our adoption fee covers the pet's spay/neuter, vaccinations, heart worm testing, and worming. We require interested parties to complete our adoption application with veterinarian and personal references. If approved we will work with you to schedule a meeting with the pet, and if you decide to adopt, our contract is the last step. We do not adopt to homes with intact pets or to people under 21 years of age.

Go meet their pets

All our adoptable pets are in foster homes where we socialize them with people and other animals. Along with adoption events we are an agency partner with the PetSmart store in Spring Hill, TN, in The Crossings shopping center as well as PetSense in Columbia, TN. Our cats can be seen during store hours in the Cat Adoption Room. Due to Covid, store times vary so please contact the store prior to your visit to see what we have available. If you are interested in meeting one of our furbabies, simply contact us, and we will work with you to schedule a meeting. Since we are an all-volunteer rescue, please be patient, as it may take up to 72 hours for a response. Thank you!

More about this rescue

We believe that pets are family members who fill our lives with joy and meaning. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue group that strives to make a difference in the lives of animals within our rural community in south central Tennessee. Through our Spay/Neuter Program for Giles County residents we know that the result will be a huge reduction in the amount of unwanted cats and dogs in our County.

Rescues exist because of the overpopulation of cats and dogs. About 2.4 million healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are put down in U.S. shelters each year. Often these animals are the offspring of cherished family pets. Spay/Neuter is a proven way to reduce pet overpopulation, ensuring that every pet has a family to love them.

The Giles County Humane Association lends a voice to those animals who cannot speak for themselves.
