Story
This is Jade! This darling girl would love to enjoy the comforts of home and leave our rescue in Arkansas. She is 2-3 years old. Jade has a high prey drive, so she can’t cohabitate with cats. She is good with puppies, but really prefers to be by herself. She is ok with male dogs, but would really just like to be left alone to watch the squirrels. She is very sweet. She enjoys attention and is a loving companion, but isn’t overly needy. She is quiet and not much of a barker. Are you searching for an independent fur friend to add to your family?? Find us at https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/ or on FB to fill out an application for Jade!

Story
Pete is the PERFECT dog. He is great with all dogs (male, female, puppy) in fact he is so laid back he has been getting bullied by more dominant males. He is the sweetest and most easy going boy. He is very gentle and calm. Pete is a short stocky boy, approximately 45lbs. He is prone to allergies, so he does need a special shampoo to help. If interested in adopting OR fostering Pete please check us out on FB or our website at tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org and fill out an application! Our best guess is he was born May ‘22

Story
Ember EST DOB 5/18/26 Ember is a beautiful little ray of sunshine with a playful spirit and a heart overflowing with love. This precious girl has a sweet, affectionate personality and an easygoing nature that makes her a joy to be around. She loves exploring her surroundings, playing with toys, and making new friends, but she's just as happy settling down for snuggles and enjoying quiet time with her favorite people. Ember has a wonderful balance of curiosity, confidence, and affection that makes every day with her a little brighter. Ember has a naturally friendly personality and approaches the world with a happy, tail-wagging attitude. She enjoys discovering new adventures without being overly busy or overwhelming. Whether she's chasing a toy, exploring the yard, or following her people around just to be close to them, Ember's loving heart shines through in everything she does. She's the kind of puppy who makes you smile simply by being herself. Estimated Breed: Labrador Retriever / Rottweiler Mix Breed Information: We believe Ember is a Labrador Retriever / Rottweiler mix based on her appearance, coat, body structure, and overall characteristics. However, unless a puppy's parents are known, confirmed with registration, breed is always an educated guess, not a guarantee. Mixed-breed puppies are wonderfully unique, and that's part of what makes each one so special. When you receive your Policy & Procedure Adoption Contract, be sure to read our "Breed & Age Information" document. It contains helpful information about mixed-breed puppies and what makes them so special and unique. :) Weight: Growing puppy (expected medium size) Energy Level: Moderate - playful and adventurous when it's time for fun, but equally content relaxing and enjoying cuddle time with her family. Personality & Temperament: Sweet, affectionate, playful, friendly, curious, gentle, and people-oriented. Ember has a wonderful balance of confidence and calmness. She loves spending time with people, enjoys making new friends, and has a naturally loving personality that makes her an excellent companion for families, couples, or individuals alike. She isn't the puppy bouncing off the walls, instead, she enjoys a healthy balance of playtime, exploration, and quiet moments with the people she loves. Compatibility: One of the biggest advantages of adopting a puppy at this age is that they are still developing their personalities and learning about the world around them. With proper guidance, socialization, and positive experiences, they grow into well-adjusted companions who adapt beautifully to a variety of homes, people, children, and other animals. Puppies this young are compatible with dogs, cats, and children because they are still in a critical stage of development and are eager to learn. At this age, they're essentially a blank slate, making it the ideal time to introduce them to new experiences and help shape them into confident, well-rounded adults. The greater consideration is ensuring resident pets are accepting of a young puppy and that children understand how to gently and respectfully interact with one. Training & Skills: Ember is still a young puppy and will need continued work with house manners, crate training, leash training, and basic obedience. She's intelligent, eager to learn, and thrives on positive reinforcement, patience, and consistency. With continued guidance and plenty of love, she'll grow into a loyal, well-mannered companion who will make her family proud. Special Skills: Professional cuddle expert, tail-wagging welcome committee, and certified happiness ambassador. Ember has an incredible way of brightening everyone's day with her joyful personality, playful spirit, and endless puppy kisses. Adoption Requirements (if applicable): Ember will need a family committed to providing continued training, socialization, daily exercise, and opportunities for enrichment as she grows. A securely fenced yard is preferred but not required, provided her family can meet her physical and mental exercise needs. Fun Facts / Quirks: Ember has one of those happy personalities that's impossible not to fall in love with. She enjoys playing, exploring, and being wherever her people are, but she also knows how to settle down and enjoy a good cuddle session. Her sweet eyes, loving heart, and cheerful spirit make her the perfect combination of playful companion and devoted best friend. If you're looking for a puppy who will fill your home with laughter, unconditional love, and a lifetime of happy memories, Ember is ready to light up your world.

Norman is a 1 year old pittie/lab mix. He is extremely people friendly, loves everyone.. He loves his toys and is just a great pup all the way around. Norman is not house broken this will be the responsibility of the adopter as we are a shelter and unfortunately do not have time to individually house train all the dogs and puppies. This is an easy task with proper training and consistency though. He is a smart boy and would learn fast. If interested in adopting Norman the first step is to fill out our adoption application

Story
Our sweet Sasha girl was rescued from life on a heavy chain hooked to a trash can that was her ONLY shelter. She was abused and almost bred to death. When Tails took her and her babies in she was barely hanging on, she was a skeleton and was so weak she could barely lift her head. After several medications, fluids and a miracle she made a full turn around and she has thanked us daily for rescuing her. Love just radiates from her eyes and she is SO gentle with people. She is very well mannered, leash and crate trained. She potty’s outside if shes on a schedule. Sasha would thrive in a calm home with children over the age of 12 as loud rambunctious kids may trigger her. If you’re interested in adopting OR fostering Sasha please find us on FB or our website at tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org and fill out an application!
