Story
Looking to rehome bingo to someone who has a little more time on their hands to take care of her. She is pretty much house trained and has only had a few accidents the past year. She is crate trained and able to be in her crate comfortably. She loves playing with her toys and laying down and just chewing. She also loves any kind of chew. She can chill around. She like to lay in the kitchen while we cook and just watch. We have a mini dachshund also and she gets along with him really well. She is on Prozac to help with her anxiety but I believe she’s at a point where she can be weened off. The only thing she doesn’t like is thunder. She is 55 lbs and up to date on all her vaccines. Shes perfect if you want a playful dog. If interested send me a text at 423-285-3886

Story
Luna is a full breed English Bulldog. Extremely loyal, easy to love, and full of attitude. I’m going through a divorce and I cannot give her the attention she needs. I would much rather see her go to someone that can provide the attention, care, and love she deserves.

Story
Cosmo is a border collie/blue heeler mix and is an extremely sweet dog that comes from a hard background. We saved him from an abusive household 5 years ago. We cannot keep him as he does not get along well with our children. Preferably he would go to a home with either a single man or couple with no children. He is laid back and does not require a lot of activity. He is shy around females but will grow to like them with time and positive attention.

Story
Roger Needs a New Home ❤️ It breaks our hearts, but we are looking for a loving new home for our 5-year-old Blue Tick Walker mix, Roger. Roger is a sweet, goofy boy who loves his people and enjoys snuggling up after a day of play. He is house trained, crate trained, and knows several basic commands including sit, down, and come. Roger does well with other dogs and children, but he is not good with cats. He absolutely loves being outside and would thrive in a home with a large, securely fenced yard where he can run, play, and show off his famous zoomies! As a Blue Tick Walker mix, Roger has strong instincts and could make a great hunting companion with additional training. He is an active dog who would do best with a family that can give him plenty of exercise, attention, and love. We are committed to finding Roger the right home where he can continue to be the happy, playful dog he is. If you think Roger might be a good fit for your family or would like more info, let us know!
