Story
This puppy is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $250 if picked up in TN, $325 plus transport fee for out of state adoptions. Introducing Juno, the perfect blend of energy and snuggles! At just 3.5 months old and 25 pounds, this pittie puppy is already winning hearts with her confidence and charm. Juno, shiny in her grey and white coat, loves zooming around with her rope toy, cozying up for snuggles, and impressing everyone with her quick learning skills. With her housetraining and crate manners now well on track, thanks to regular outings, Juno is proving to be the perfect puppy housemate. She gets along famously with other dogs, cats, and kids, making her a versatile companion for any family. In the car, she's a dream traveler, settling into her crate for a peaceful journey. As long as her new home is filled with love, exercise, and lots of treats, Juno will thrive anywhere. So if you're ready for a lifetime of laughs and love, apply now to bring home this adorable little house hippo and let the adventures begin!  Interested in adopting? Take the first step and complete an adoption application on our website: http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-apps/ If you have questions that are not covered in the profile, visit the Pet Inquiry Form: http://aarf-tn.com/contact/pet-inquiry-form/. THIS PET IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE! We do list and adopt our pets nationwide. Typical transport cost to the Northeast is $180. Due to interstate adoption regulations, we are not able to adopt to RI and MA state residents. A.A.R.F. (All About Rescue and Fixin' Inc.) http://aarf-tn.com/ is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) no kill animal rescue organization located in the Upper Cumberland area of Tennessee. A.A.R.F. is comprised of unpaid volunteers and survives only on public donations. Thank you for thinking adoption first! Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption. April 19, 2024, 11:33 pm

Story
Meet Hugo!!! Hugo is an adorable 1 yo pug, new to the rescue. He loves to cuddle, but not to be picked up. Not to worry, he is adept at jumping on the chair or couch to snuggle up to you. He will lie at your feet or stand on his hind legs, resting his front feet on you, gently snuffling & doing his "pug magic to obtain pets. As with all pugs, he is super friendly, gets along with all dogs, & Hugo even likes cats. He is learning to relax after some upheaval in his life, so right now he is a picky eater. He was not previously housebroken, but is working on it. Belly bands will be a must for now. His head tilts are awesome as are his husky like "awoooos. Please make room in your home and heart to give this sweet guy the life he deserves. Local adoption fee is $400 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $600 includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee will be included)

Story
Hondo is a handsome 5 year old gentleman who loves to be loved on! He is good with other dogs and seems to be housebroken. Hondo spent most of his life on his own, living outside. But he's ready to fully understand what family life is all about! He would love to be a regular ol' couch potato! He loves to explore outside and would make for a wonderful adventure buddy!

Keanu is a Grade A goofball. He is 65 pounds and about 10-11 months old. Keanu is still very new to the shelter, but he is good with some other dogs. Keanu hasn't had much basic training. He has however, realized that the main thing he wants in life are head scratchings and belly rubs!

Story
Leilani hasn't been with us long at all - but it did NOT take long for her to steal our hearts. Leilani is about 5-6 years old and 70 pounds. This older girl has lived her life breeding, but that is no more. She is spayed and ready to find her retirement home. Leilani deserves to be a dog - to do dog things - and to be spoiled like th queen we know that she is!
