Story
Meet very handsome Apollo! 6 year old Apollo is a Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix looking for his furever home. He is very energetic and will be his best within an active family with older children. He loves cuddling with his cat friends (or just cuddling in general), going for long walks, and curling up on someone's lap on the couch at the end of the day. He would do best in a home without other dogs since he's pretty much alpha.   He is UTD on shots, HW negative, microchipped, and takes Heartgard monthly.   When you need that special someone to share your day with Apollo/CP is the right guy for you!!!   Please complete our application at: http://www.russellrescuetn.com/application-for-adoption/September 30, 2023, 9:04 pm

Story
Midnight has a new hobby, squirrel watching! He is so funny I’m not sure what he would do if one came over the fence. He has fun everyday playing in the yard and he won’t let you forget to bring his ball outside. He’s still waiting on a home of his own, hopefully soon little guy.Midnight likes other dogs. He hangs out with my 52 pound basset mix & 2 dogs close to his size. Loves to play ball and enjoys having a stuffed toy to sleep with.He likes to have a dog bed, whenever he has a blanket he acts he's making a nest. It's really funny. It takes him a few days to be ok with new people. I would not think he needs to be with children at least not young children. I think they would grab at him and he would try to bite.  He did try to bite me at first with putting leash on or off. I used a slip lead and once he decided I was trying to be his friend he was fine. If someone is patient and takes time with him he will great addition to their family. He's doing really well at my house. I hope he can find a home that understands him. He does still pee in the house. I've got him to use the pee pad I leave out overnight now which he didn't do at first. Apparently he was running loose off the old owners property a few times before they surrendered him to animal control. They said they couldn't afford to keep him. He has a good time everyday unless it's raining and he can't play ball outside. Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made.The application is the first step.

Story
Hi! My name is Bella and my foster mom says I’m just about perfect! I’m about 10 yo and 30’ish pounds. I’m spayed and utd on my shots, and HW negative! I came to Russell Rescue TN because my human passed away. My siblings have been adopted and I’m waiting for my furever home! I am really chill and love to laze about in my comfy dog bed or snuggled up in your lap. I am medium energy. I love to play outside, but I’m totally ok just snoozing in my bed too! I love my toys and will give you a real challenge in tug o’war! If you love to sleep in late and snuggle….I am your gal!!She does not appear to have had any obedience training, but is very treat motivated and quite smart, so we have no doubt she will learn the basics quickly. We were told she is about 10 years old and was surrendered to RR after her owner passed away. It’s obvious she was very loved. She is also great with our grandchildren (ages 5-12 yo)! She loves to play with her toys and is always up for a game of tug o’war! Bella is really an all around wonderful pup!Bella is a lavender rat terrier. She does has thin hair on her back but oh goodness does she love attention. Bella was gotten for my mother as a rescue. She was only 6 weeks old and spoiled rotten. She loves to snuggle under covers but can be kinda shy with new people. Bella is a talker and loves to greet her owners. She can tend to over eat because she loves food and snacks.Available dogs are met by appointment only and pre-approved adopters ONLY.Our dogs are currently in a foster homes which can answer your questions better than anyone else. We promise our fosters that we will qualify all potential adopters before we ask them to communicate with potential adopters.The application is the first step.

Story
Max is doing well!  He had an active day yesterday. He went into his crate last night and crashed!!!  I found out last night he snores!  Lol!  I took him to the dog park yesterday with my pups.  (I am working on finding fosters!)  He did great!  His little legs have gotten stronger. He still likes to show off his gymnastics stunts by doing quasi-splits with his back legs. I am noticing he has a little more control since i picked him up on Thursday. He was trying to play with my pom, Charlie. My cat and Stormi are still trying to figure out what Max is! Gladys has discovered she cannot intimidate Max. Lol!  His head tilt appears to be lessening.  It is still there but not wobbly like it was. He has a tad bit more mobility in his neck.  He was bright-eyed and bushy tailed this morning as he stepped out of his crate. Being out of the crate and allowed to explore the last couple of days has strengthened not only his body but his spirit. He is a chi warrior!  There is still a lot of life in this Lil Ole man!Available dogs are met by appointment only and pre-approved adopters ONLY.Our dogs are currently in a foster homes which can answer your questions better than anyone else. We promise our fosters that we will qualify all potential adopters before we ask them to communicate with potential adopters.The application is the first step.
