Story
IDGSR Welcomes KEVIN into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Well howdy, folks! Name’s Kevin, and I reckon I might just be the smallest German Shepherd this side of Nashville, Tennessee… trapped in a Chihuahua/Terrier body. Don’t let my size fool ya—what I lack in height, I make up for in heart, grit, and a whole lotta personality. Quick Facts: Age - 7-months old Kids - will do fine with kids Dogs - great with other dogs Cats - probably no cats 1. At 7 months old, I’m still a young buck, full of curiosity and charm. 2. I’ve got a funny little bob-tail that wiggles faster than a tumbleweed in a windstorm, and a coat that looks straight outta the German Shepherd handbook. I’m startin’ to think I might be an undercover deputy from the Shepherd ranks—just disguised in a compact package! 3. I get along mighty fine with other dogs, and I’d fit right in whether you’re livin’ in a ranch, apartment, condo, or townhome—I’m not picky about my corral. 4. I’m still workin’ on house and crate trainin’, but I’m a quick learner if you’ve got some patience and a few treats up your sleeve. 5. I’ll need a good ol’ dose of obedience trainin’, but partner, once I learn the ropes, I’ll be your most loyal sidekick on every adventure. 6. So what do you say, cowboy (or cowgirl)? Saddle up and adopt me —the tiny sheriff with the Shepherd soul! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY! If you are not 100% ready to adopt, please wait** ************** ***IMPORTANT ADOPTION INFORMATION*** -ALL dogs are fostered in TENNESSEE unless otherwise noted -We do transport dogs to the east coast; a transport fee will apply -All dogs are up-to-date on vaccinations, heart-worm testing, monthly preventatives, & are spayed or neutered -Puppies under 6-months of age will require a SPAY/NEUTER CONTRACT, a portion of the adoption fee will be refunded upon documentation of the spay/neuter -An application must be submitted before scheduling an appointment to meet a dog -Dogs are introduced to prospective adopters BY APPOINTMENT ONLY -Due to the high volume of emails we receive, first priority will be given to those with submitted applications -All rescue work is done by dedicated volunteers, please be respectful of their time -Not able to adopt?

Story
Hi everyone, I’m looking for a responsible and loving home for Milo, a sweet and affectionate puppy. 📍 Location: Tennessee (Middle TN area) 🐾 Name: Milo 🎂 Age: Puppy (under 1 year) 🐕 Breed: Mixed breed 💙 Personality: Friendly, playful, loving, and very sweet 🐶 Good with: People and other dogs 🩺 Health: [vaccinated ] Milo was born with a cleft lip, but he has already been evaluated by a veterinarian/surgeon, who confirmed that he can live a completely normal life and does not require special care. Milo is a wonderful dog, but due to life changes and an upcoming move to an apartment, I want to make sure he goes to a home where he will have the time, space, and love he deserves. This is not abandonment, but a responsible rehoming decision made with his best interest in mind. I’m looking for: ✔️ A committed adopter ✔️ Someone who understands the responsibility of a puppy ✔️ A safe and loving home

Story
I’ve had nena for about 3 or 4 years, I don’t know her birthday because she was found on the street and was given to me, the precious owners tried to get her back but my mother told them no because they let her get loose on the street by herself, (my mother is a lier, I don’t know if that part is true. I don’t know who her previous owners were but I’ve had her since. She used to have a cherry eye on her left eye, I paid to get her surgery and got her neutered as well, it was around $1,250, they said it might come back one day but that was about 2 years ago. I love her, she’s an amazing dog, but I’m working more and almost never home, she stays inside all day, she sometimes pees and poops inside when I don’t take her out regularly but she will hold it untill Ill she can’t can’t anymore so I try not to get mad at her. Shes trying her best. She loves when I get home and start playing, wagging her tail, playing her chew toy and chasing me to love her, she sleeps next to me every night

Story
Meet Your New Best Friend! Name: Beau Breed: Miniature Pinscher / Chihuahua mix Age: Around 10 years old Size: Small About Him: This sweet little guy is gentle, affectionate, and full of love. He has a heart murmur (monitored by his vet) and some separation anxiety, but he is never aggressive — just a loyal companion who enjoys cuddles and quiet time with his people. Ideal Home: He would thrive in a calm household with someone who can give him attention and care, and understands small dog needs. Why Rehoming: Due to work and financial constraints, I can no longer give him the time he deserves. I’m looking for a loving home where he can thrive. Contact: Email: jessicaneale1@gmail.com

Story
PIPPA UPDATE: Pippa loves toys and loves to play. Content to play by herself or with other small dogs. She is scared of large dogs. House broken and crate trained. She table surfs, will steal your schrunchie in a minute, so she is crated when we are out of the house. We have established a routine for being picked up that is working which causes less stress for her. She rides well in her car seat but has to be buckled in to prevent her from roaming the car. —————————————————————— Pippa came into rescue as a stray. She has been traumatized at some point and takes a bit to warm up but once she does, she is such a sweet cuddle bug. Her main issue is when you try to pick her up, she rolls on her back, screams and pees. She is going to need a very quiet home with a lot of patience to help her be her best self. If you have time and patience then she will come around and be the best pup ever. She is very treat motivated! Her adoption fee is $300.00 (plus 6% KY sales tax)

Shrimp — a little gentleman with a big heart, weighing in at just 8 lbs. This 10-year-old Chihuahua–Maltese mix we think, is as sweet as they come. Shrimp is a gentle, happy boy who loves nothing more than being close to his person. He’ll happily follow you from room to room, just to make sure you don’t get lost without him. Even though he doesn’t have any teeth, Shrimp is a true foodie at heart — mealtime is his favorite time! He’s crate trained and sleeps well, though sometimes he can’t quite make it through the night, so he wears a diaper just to be safe. House training is still a work in progress, but he’s learning. If you’re looking for a loyal little shadow who will fill your days with love and quiet companionship, Shrimp is ready to wiggle right into your heart. Local Only adoption fee is $200(in TX)
