Story

You won't find a more handsome, intelligent or silly boy than Sidney. He is about 3.5 years old and weighs 84 lbs. Sidney is a very intelligent fellow, he learns quicky and is anxious to please. He will do well with a job and/or a lot of stimulation, long walks and hikes. He will do well with an experienced dog person. Sidney loves meeting new people. He has done well with large dogs he has met, however he is would not be good with small dogs or cats. Sidney does show some barrier reactivity, however, when the barrier is removed (whether it is a crate, fence or car window) he shows absolutely no issues. Because Sidney likes a lot of activity, he will need a securely fenced yard (must be a physical fence, not an electric or invisible system) He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped and on monthly treatment for flea/ticks and heartworm prevention Sidney is currently located in the Middle TN area but transport is included in the adoption fee for approved adopter If you are interested in Sidney, email rookiesrescue@yahoo.com for an application

Story

The best things in life are worth waiting for - and Charlie is no exception.After being found abandoned in Louisiana with his littermates, at just 3 weeks old, Charlie has been taking life one brave step at a time.At about 3.5 months old, Charlie is a short-legged, long-bodied cutie with a gentle heart. New people and new situations can be very overwhelming for him, so he’s looking for a patient adopter who understands that trust is earned, not rushed. Once Charlie feels safe, his goofy personality starts to shine. He loves belly rubs, sniffing around the yard, snack time, and quietly hanging out with the people he loves.Charlie absolutely benefits from having another confident, well-adjusted dog around. He takes his cues from canine friends and becomes much braver when he has a buddy to show him the ropes. He’s submissive with other dogs and enjoys playing once he’s comfortable. He’s also cat-friendly - in fact, if a cat tells him to back off, he happily listens!For now, Charlie’s ideal home is a quiet, adult-only home with a secure fenced yard and at least one stable, confident dog to help him continue building confidence. His crate is his safe place, and he’s doing wonderfully with house training when kept on a consistent schedule and crated when unsupervised.Charlie isn’t looking for someone to “fix” him. He’s looking for someone who will celebrate every little victory, let him move at his own pace, and show him that the world can be a kind place. Watching a shy dog learn to trust is one of the most rewarding journeys there is - and Charlie is worth every step.Charlie is ready for the next chapter of his story - he just needs someone willing to write it with him.If you’d like to take Charlie home, please fill out an adoption application at this link – https://animalalliesrescue.org/dog-application. The adoption fee is $400 and covers all expenses needed to prepare dogs like this one for their forever homes. By the time you meet them, they’ve already been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. They’ve been checked by a veterinarian and are up to date on necessary vaccinations, including Rabies and DHLPP. They have also been tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases and have started heartworm and flea preventative medication. Some of our dogs have even undergone extensive medical care to ensure they’re ready for a happy, healthy life with you!

Story

Meet Nextel, affectionately known as Nexi, a sweet senior gentleman who believes life is best enjoyed under a cozy blanket and curled up next to his favorite people.In fact, if you can`t find him, don`t panic -just check the nearest blanket. This clever little guy has mastered the art of covering himself up and creating the perfect snuggle cave!Nexi is:?? Housebroken?? Crate trained ?? Leash trained but prefers to wander and explore in a fenced yard?? Lap trained (his favorite certification!)?? Great with other dogs?? A champion cuddler?? Not: cat or kid-testedNexi would also love a home where someone is around most of the time. He`s happiest with his people nearby and prefers not to be left alone for long periods. He knows a few basic commands, though he appreciates gentle encouragement and praise. After all, at 12 years old, he`s earned the right to move at his own adorable pace.Nexi does have a heart condition that is well managed with medication, and due to his age and medical needs, his veterinarian advised against neutering.What Nexi is really searching for is simple: a soft blanket, a warm lap, and a family who will cherish every cuddle and every sweet senior moment. If your home could use a little extra love - and a hidden dog under your throw blanket - Nexi may be the perfect match.If you’d like to take Nexi home, please fill out an adoption application at this link – https://animalalliesrescue.org/dog-application.
