Story
WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Ainsley! Hi, I'm Ainsley! I was born on January 18, 2023, and I'm a proud German Shepherd/Carolina Dog mix. I'm a spayed girl who weighs about 50 pounds, and I'm fully current on all my vaccinations, so I'm ready for adventure whenever you are. People say I'm always smiling, and honestly, they're right. I love life! I'm athletic, full of energy, and happiest when I'm on the move. If there's water nearby, I'm in it. Lakes, creeks, the garden hose... it doesn't matter. If it's wet, I'm there with my tail wagging. I'm great with kids and get along with every dog I meet. I love playing, exploring, and being part of the pack. I'm friendly, social, and always ready for the next good time. If you're looking for a happy, active girl who will smile at you every day, splash through every puddle, and love your whole family (two-legged and four-legged), I'd be thrilled to be your girl. Come meet me. I can't wait to show you my smile in person!

ROGER IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN, AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE ADOPTED!    Are you looking for a big, cuddly couch potato? You have found your pup! Roger is a 75-pound, 2-year old shepherd mix whose love of naps and cuddle sessions are matched only by his love of booty skritches. He has an EAR-resistible face with his light eyes and one ear always at attention.  Despite his tall stature, he’s a bit of a scaredy cat. He’s timid of strangers at first and prefers a home without children. Despite months of coaching and training, it has become clear he will not get over his fear of children and so he is now looking for a kid-free forever home. He is the happiest, snuggliest boy! He even greets his grown ups with a “smile” when they walk through the door. Please don’t try to tell him he’s not a lap dog; he’d never believe you.  Roger loves other dogs and has not been cat-tested. He is house trained, crate trained, and great on a leash. Roger is truly the cuddliest, most loving lazy bones — an old soul, no doubt! Let’s find him a home where he will get the big love he deserves!    He is fully vetted. Vetting includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies and all dog vaccinations. His adoption fee of $600 includes the transport to CT. We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Roger up north to his new family. You can apply to adopt him today!     If you have any questions, please email us at: newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com   You can apply to adopt Roger here: www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net   THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 30, 2026, 6:01 am

I'm Sky and I'm very energetic and playful. I really need a companion - human or dog, preferably both. I get along with other dogs and love to run around. Do you live near a dog park or have a fenced-in yard? Awesome! Looking for an adventure partner? So am I! I am a good size to take in the car or camper wherever the road takes us! Sky has been at the rescue for over 2 years! She needs a home of her own. She is another case of 'boring looking brown dog' who has been overlooked. Through no fault of her own, people have not noticed her. She would be a great companion for anyone looking for a loyal dog. FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN. The adoption fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea/Tick/Heartworm Prevention, and Sheltering.Sky's adoption fee (if picked up locally in Crossville, Tennessee) is $225. If transport is needed, her adoption fee is $525 (out of state, East Coast, Great Lakes or New England regions)Thank You for Your Interest in Adopting a Canine Companion from Foccas-tn.org!To Apply Please Copy and Paste to Your Browser:https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=hb2428&method=online_form_html&formid=41To see sky walking on leash, please copy and paste into your browser:https://youtube.com/shorts/7j7kHLfffXc?feature=share
