Story

Our longest-stay resident and heart worm survivor, Smokey, got a foster break during the snow and ice storm—and he is absolutely thriving. In a home setting, he’s doing amazing: housebroken (only one accident the first day), crates easily, sleeps through the night, and is eager to please. He’s super smart and very trainable—one firm “no” is all it takes. He still loves to play like a puppy with toys and rope, then happily settles in for lap time and cuddles. He rides well in the car, sits quickly for treats, and bonds deeply with his people, always watching you to figure out how to make you happy. He’s about 4 years old, around 60 lbs, and truly no trouble at all. After thinking “oh no” about fostering the shelter’s longest resident, his foster says she couldn’t have been more wrong—he’s an absolute gem.❤️ 🌟Cat-free home.

Story

Meet Nala! This sweet girl is being fostered in east TN. She is not available out of state. She is sweet, funny, lovable, goofy and spunky. She does need a special home though because she is also fear reactive with meeting new people. She is nippy yet takes the correction when she is told not to do something. She has a lot of herding instinct in her and she is literally trying to figure you out and make sure you are not a threat. She is excellent with her people and only reacts this way with new people. She needs a bit of time to trust you before you can pet her. She will take treats but if you try to per her too soon she will let you know she is not ready for that yet. She took about 30 minutes to be ok with us. We gave a few treats and one of us was able to scratch her chin but that was the extent and we had pushed too far she was still to nervous she barked and snipped but never bit or broke skin. 20 minutes later she came to me and (Amy) and put her paw on my thigh and climbed up to me and begged for love. She was craving being loved so much she couldn’t get enough of it. It was a very emotional moment for me because I thought oh boy another one that will never be able to overcome their fear of new people, yet here she was literally melting in my arms and giving kisses and begging for affection. She was in foster care for a year with another rescue and she nipped at a visitor of the foster parents. The rescue placed her in training with a local trainer. She was literally wasting away a whole year of her life with this trainer. The other rescue did not know this was the case. She spent the majority of that year in a crate. That trainer did her no good at all, the methods she used to attempt to have Nala meet new people made Nala even more fearful than she already was. She was forced into muzzle (hey muzzles are great tools if you know how to use them correctly) and forced by leash to be handed over to other trainers whom she did not know nor was given the time to get to know and she reacted out of fear. She tried to bite them and it was quite traumatic for her to endure. She needed to be given time on a leash to see these people at a distance and learn what they were about before meeting them hands on. Here we allow her to meet new people but these people are not allowed to touch her unless we tell them it’s ok and it’s ok when Nala asks for it that is when she trusts that person. Once she trusts she is golden. Is it the best behavior for a dog to have,? absolutely not but it is her and we have done the best we can for her. She is not aggressive and per the other trainer said she should be euthanized she was unadoptable. Well here we are having met her and given her time she is a big baby and she also has met our friends and family on occasion and with proper guidance she is doing amazing. She is an excellent protective companion and very intelligent. She needs an experienced owner who can guide her when meeting new people. She will always have a home with us if she never finds that perfect home. She is truly just too amazing and loving to euthanize. She is just misunderstood and that year was more of a setback than a help to her. She is house trained. Current on vaccines, chipped, spayed and heartworm negative. She is well behaved in the home and is not destructive. She walks well on a leash and knows a few basic commands. She is as devoted and loyal as they come. If you give her the chance you will be rewarded significantly by her acceptance and love. She is worth it, her life is worth it! Apply at petpath.org

Story

Sam is a 2 year old very active doggo that needs a home with someone that has time to play with him and take him outside. He loves to go on walks. He is a super chewer that when bored has a tendency to chew on anything. Therefore, a home with a very active family would be best.He is pad trained but will go potty outside when took out. He was my daughter's dog that recently moved out and she really didnt give him the attention he needed. He deserves a good home with lots of love and play time. He has not been around young children or cats.

Story

Brownie Border Collie mixes are herding breeds which will try to herd every. Brownie loves to chase water spraying out of hose and the tennis ball. She didn't have positive experiences with humans or little. She wouldn't let me touch her for weeks but now enjoys scratches under her chest and ears. She may still avoid fast movements towards her. Let her come to you. She is leary of being trapped in small spaces like doorways. She likes to keep track of everyone and everything. She has been started on a leash but needs more work. I would suggest a harness. She's extremely smart and figures out patterns quickly. Calm low voices are the best around her avoid high squeaky voice. She's trained to stay in a crate overnight and is good if she can see you. I use the word "kennel" and toss a treat in for her. Positive reinforcement will be key as she learns to trust you. Avoid any physical correction as a sharp verbal, no, she understands. She gets along well with other dogs and has been great in the house. I have been using the word "go potty," and she seems to understand. She has one potientally bad habit you should discourage. She barks at her reflection, even though it's funny at first be sure to stop it or it will become an annoying habit. Feeding schedule 6 am, noon and 6 pm you can probably switch to twice a day soon. Take to your vet within first week and follow continued vaccination requirements. Please ask staff for my contact information.

Border Collie mixes are herding breeds which will try to herd everything. Lily loves to chase water spraying out of the hose and the tennis ball. She didn't have a positive experience with humans or little. She wouldn't let me touch her at first but now enjoys scratches under her chest and ears. She may still avoid fast movements towards her. Let her come to you. She is very vocal and likes to keep track of everyone and everything. She needs to be leashed trained. I would suggest a harness or a fenced area when taking her on potty breaks. She can run very fast and can not be caught if she she doesn't want to. She extremely smart and figures out patterns quickly. She will need lots of exercise and supervision. Calm low voices are the best around her avoid high squeaky voice. But in a few weeks she will bond with you and follow you everywhere. Feeding schedule 6am/noon/6pm Take to your vet within first week of adoption and follow continued vaccination requirements I would love getting pics of her as she grows. Just c.a.r.e. staff for contact information.
