My story

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

Meet Emma (brown 10 year old girl)) and Caroline (black/gray 11 year old girl). They are two of the sweetest girls you will ever meet. These two sisters are the very definition of a “velcro dog”.

Sadly, their owner passed away so they are looking for their forever home where they can stay together and share their warm, loyal companionship with someone who will cherish them as much as they'll cherish you.

They love being by your side. They will curl up by your feet or put their head in your lap and follow you from room to room. Need a snuggle? They have you covered.
They are also very active and enjoy long walks and have plenty of energy.

Both girls are already house and crate trained, and handle and car rides just fine.

Emma can use some work walking on the leash and Caroline was initially fearful of going up and down stairs, but in time has proven she is capable (front steps, beds, and couches are no problem). Both are well behaved and love to please you.
They seem very well socialized and get along nicely with other dogs and people.

Australian Shepherds are an amazing breed. They do require both mental and physical stimulus or they can get bored. They are getting three good walks a day in their foster home.

These two girls will capture your heart just as they have their foster parents’.

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.
