Story
COURTESY LISTINGLILO is a courtesy listing, not in the AARF foster program, and we are posting online to help the owner find a home for them. Please visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-app/ to apply. Lilo is a bright, joyful burst of energy wrapped in a 30-pound Border Collie/Aussie mix body. Around four years old, she is the definition of enthusiastic—always ready for the next adventure, the next game of fetch, or the next opportunity to show off her clever mind. She greets life with excitement and a tail that never seems to stop wagging. This smart girl already knows sit, shake, and lay down, and she learns quickly with a willingness that makes training both fun and rewarding. With her intelligence and drive, Lilo has all the makings of an incredible sport or activity partner. Whether it’s rally, scent work, hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding, or simply an energetic game of fetch in the yard, she is ready to be your teammate. In fact, she loves fetch so much that she’ll sometimes toss the ball back to you herself if you’re not quick enough—just to keep the game going. Once she’s had a chance to burn off her zoomies, Lilo transforms into a devoted cuddle buddy. She’ll happily snuggle up close on the couch to watch TV, content just being near her people. She’s fully house trained, sleeps through the night in her crate, walks well on leash, and rides comfortably in the car. She loves kids and has done wonderfully with the children she’s lived with, bringing her playful spirit and affectionate heart into the home. Lilo does well with many dogs (but not some other female dogs) and has lived with cats, responding well to redirection when reminded of her manners. She thrives with structure, activity, and engagement, and she would do best in a home looking for a sporty, energetic partner who’s ready to include her in daily adventures. For someone seeking a smart, fun-loving, loyal companion who can keep up and then curl up, Lilo is ready to leap right into your life and your heart.  Interested in adopting?

THIS PET IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE! We do list and adopt our pets nationwide. Typical transport cost to the Northeast is $180. Due to interstate adoption regulations, we are not able to adopt to RI and MA state residents. A.A.R.F. (All About Rescue and Fixin' Inc.) http://aarf-tn.com/ is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) no kill animal rescue organization located in the Upper Cumberland area of Tennessee. A.A.R.F. is comprised of unpaid volunteers and survives only on public donations. Thank you for thinking adoption first! Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption. February 26, 2026, 2:12 pm

Meet Oreo! Oreo can be a little shy initially, but warms up quickly and is very affectionate, sweet and playful. She especially loves fetch! She needs some work on the leash, but is crate trained and mostly potty trained and only has accidents if not let out frequently enough. She's great with other dogs of all sizes and ages. She's done very well with the cats in her foster home after a slow intro. She also does very well with the one year old toddler in her foster home. Oreo is being fostered in Knoxville, TN and her adoption fee is $250.

Meet Sherlock 🕵️‍♂️ Sherlock is a thoughtful and inquisitive puppy who prefers to observe the world before diving in. While his littermates tumble and wrestle, Sherlock can often be found watching closely-studying every move until he decides the perfect moment to join the fun. This quiet little detective has a gentle soul, a curious mind, and just the right balance of intelligence and playfulness. Whether he's carefully investigating new toys, exploring his surroundings with cautious excitement, or curling up for a cozy nap, Sherlock is always thinking, always learning. He's the kind of pup who will form a deep bond with his person and thrive in a home that appreciates his sweet, sensitive nature. Sherlock is looking for a forever family who will cherish his curious spirit and loving heart-could you be the one to crack the case of his perfect match? Bonus Training Opportunity 🐾 Sublime K9 in Jefferson City offers a basic 4-week training program for both owner and dog, covering leash training and basic commands.

Meet Cardi Cardi is a young pup around 1 year old, possibly a terrier/border collie mix.
