My story

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

Meet Goldy, who is now is thriving in her northern foster home. She really adores her people and loves snuggling up or just happily hanging out by your side.

Goldy’s start in life was incredibly tough. She was abandoned in an empty house with three other dogs and left to fend for herself for weeks. When she gave birth there, rescuers patiently earned her trust and finally brought her and her puppies to safety.

Her pups have all found loving homes, and Goldy—now spayed and thriving—has made incredible progress. She enjoys playing and roughhousing in a fenced yard, though she can still be protective of her food around other dogs.

Because she’s still learning to feel fully safe, Goldie will need new or stressful situations introduced slowly and careful supervision around food around other dogs only, humans no problem.

Goldie is ready for a loving home that understands her past and can give her the steady, happy future she deserves. She’s come so far—and she can’t wait to make someone’s home complete this holiday season!

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.
