My story

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

Daisy is currently residing in East Tennessee at woofwoof fosters dog rescue. She spent some time of her life in a high-kill shelter where she had been found starving in the streets. Later on, she was adopted by an elderly man in his 90s. However, Daisy was too energetic and active for him to take care of her. The man was forced to part ways with Daisy, his dog. However, he couldn't find a place for her as all the shelters and rescues were full. We were full as well, but received a call to rescue Daisy while the man was at the vet's office, where she was scheduled to be euthanized! We couldn't say no to this special girl, and boy are we glad we didn't. It's worth noting that Daisy has her own unique story, which makes her very special. While she is crate-trained, she prefers to be close to her human(s) on a dog bed or couch. Daisy is a well-behaved dog, although she has a penchant for the taste of good dog beds. She loves to cuddle and play and has been tested with cats and deemed unbothered by confident felines who don’t run. She will however need some work on for the cats who run. However, she does prefer to be the dominant female dog and may have issues with other female dogs who are not submissive. Daisy enjoys being indoors near her humans or playing outdoors with other dogs. Daisy needs to be fed separately from other dogs as she has a strong focus on food, and has had to fight for it to survive in the past. However, she is not aggressive towards humans when it comes to food, even if something is taken away from her. Daisy has not had much socialization with young kids so she requires a home with older children that will respect her space (8+) or no children. Daisy has been doing great during our 'Doggy Day Out' events. She loves car rides and pup cups! During our last outing, she walked well on a leash while we were inside Rural King. Daisy also enjoyed getting petted by strangers and familiar adults alike, and was happy to give kisses to everyone who asked for them.

Additional adoption info

All our rescues work hard to find loving homes for the dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies that find their way into their care. These animals come from a wide variety of backgrounds and situations and all of them are looking for a forever home.

They will be completely vaccinated, vetted, neutered/spayed (if age appropriate) and on heartworm protection. All of them come with complete medical records. They are transported to you with our USDA licensed and certified transport – Rescue Riders LLC, “The most animal-friendly transport on the road.”

Their adoption fees vary but, in all cases, it covers the animals vetting, vaccinations, spay/neuter as well as their foster care, and their transportation to your area.

Thank you for opening your home to a rescue animal.

ADOPT, DON'T SHOP.

Go meet their pets

Our rescues generally do not have an actual shelter building in the New England area. This means it is often not possible to meet these babies prior to their adoption however all of these rescues have been rehoming dogs to the North East for many years and are happy to offer you references who can fill you in on their experience and how well the process works.

There is generally a money-back guarantee and a mechanism for returning the dog to the rescue if needed. All these rescues then work to re-home the animal. None are returned to a shelter. We never leave a rescue behind!

More about this rescue

Rescue Riders Cooperative is a group of rescues across the south east that are linked together by our love of animals and our desire to see as many as possible in the loving arms of a new family. Each rescue is independently run but realizing that there is strength in numbers, we have formed a cooperative to work together to place as many animals as possible.

Not only do the rescues save these animals and give them badly needed health care but they also work tirelessly in their home communities to help educate people regarding the importance of spay & neuter and how it reduces pet overpopulation.

When you adopt one of their dogs you help with this mission. We all thank you for that support and for opening your home and heart to an animal who needs you.

You are a hero!
