My story

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

Meet a Reina, a sweet, petite timid girl who's getting braver by the day. Reina spent the past year in southern foster care learning to trust humans after being used as target practice by some evil humans in Arkansas.

Now in New England, Reina is continuing to gain confidence and learning how to dog.
Miss Reina is incredibly brave and recently began venturing outside, following the lead of other confident dogs. She has now learned outside is a safe place and even gets excited about it. And most important, will now will go outside to potty!!Look at her enjoying her foster yard:

Leashes are still too overwhelming for her, so a secure, fenced-in yard is mandatory as well as at least one other confident dog in the home.
Reina needs at least one happy, confident dog in Reina's in her new home. This is an absolute must.

She loves playing with toys and collecting Nylabones in a pile. She's cautious with people but enjoys butt scratches and eagerly takes treats from your hand. Reina is playful, sweet, and quirky, often approaching for pets but retreating when she's had enough.
She loves to show her excitement with butt wiggles and the cutest "awooo" companied by big spins. Reina would thrive in a home with other dogs along with someone to nurture her playful spirit. her cautious nature, she thrives with other dogs and shows a joyful, docile side in the right environment.

Reina needs a calm, patient environment with understanding adopters willing to give her time to adjust. Shy dogs prefer environments, making them perfect for people who appreciate a relaxed, low-key lifestyle. They will happily join you for serene moments, offering a gentle, soothing presence .

Earning the trust of a shy dog is an incredibly rewarding experience. When they do open up to you, the connection is unmatched, and you will feel the depth of their gratitude and love every single day.

Reina is a sweet, sweet soul who has have already made incredible progress and is ready for the next step in her journey—finding a loving home that will continue to help her heal and flourish.

More about this rescue

PAWS is comprised of a small group of volunteers from New England and Tennessee trying to reduce the euthanization rate (previously 90%) at the Tipton County Animal Control shelter in Brighton, Tennessee. This shelter is forced to euthanize thousands of animals each year due to irresponsible pet owners that do not spay/ neuter their dogs in the area. Millions of dogs in America are euthanized each year due to lack of space and lack of funding to try and find them better homes.

Our mission is to save as many animals as possible, removing them from the shelter, having their veterinary needs met prior to traveling and then finding them loving homes throughout New England. We do this only with the assistance of many people volunteering their time by going to the shelter, transporting the dogs to the vet, fostering dogs who need special care, and arranging for their new and happy homes in this area. Most importantly, we cannot do any of this without those people willing to open their homes and hearts to these lovely creatures.
