Story
This sweetie pie was terrified in the Shelter and Clinic but came into my home as a foster and within a couple of hours she was licking my fingers.  She loves to play with her fellow doggies.  She is cat and bird friendly.  She is well-behaved in the home and is a quiet little girl.  But loves to play and run in the yard with her friends. She is gentle and gaining confidence by the minute.  Edie is fully vetted, happy healthy and fostering in Norwalk.  Ask for her videos.December 10, 2023, 5:05 pm

Story
Jessie was picked up as a stray, with a little female Border collie puppy in tow. We named her Jolene and we name the adult male Jessie. A play on some songs.  Jessie is super affectionate, he wants to be with his people so very much. He is eager to please his people, and he knows some basic commands. One look into his eyes and you see the pure loyalty and love this sweetie has to offer. He enjoys being inside the home, with his people and doggo friends. We can't imagine how anyone could dump this sweetheart of a boy. He was saved by PRL from a kill shelter. Both him and Jolene, his little friend he came in with. Jessie could be Jolene's dad, but we are not positive.  Jessie is an adult male 2-4 year old black border collie, who weighs about 40 lbs. He has a wonderful disposition, and is very submissive towards his people and dog friends.  Jessie is neutered and medically up to date, housebroken, and crate trained.  He is good with people, kids, and other dogs.  He has not been cat tested, so we are unsure how he would do with cats.   ##1857974##

Story
Abner came to us after being given away on social media at just 4 weeks old. He is now a year old and ready to find a forever home. He is about 45 lbs and growing. He is neutered, current on vaccinations, preventions and chipped. He is a fun pup who loves to play with his foster friends and toys. He would be a great addition to any family either with another dog already or a one dog family. Are you someone looking for an activity partner, Abner can be that dog! Abner is located in middle TN, but not to worry his transport is included in the adoption fee with Rescue Riders Transport to one of their delivery locations. We are happy to set up a virtual meet and greet with any approved application.
