Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained,

Story

We believe he is around a year old, very playful and energetic, loves to cuddle. He was found running around the neighborhood and no one knew who he belongs to or took ownership so we couldn't let him be without a home. He is house trained and crate trained, gets along well with others and dogs. We don't have the time or space for him and would love to find him a more supportive home!

Cub

Dutch Shepherd

Male, Young

Georgetown, TN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Cub is one year old. He is very sweet and gentle. After we got him we ended up having some changes in our life and we have not been able to give him the attention he needs. Being a Dutch Shepherd he needs lots of stimulation and activity. He is crate trained. I would say he is good with bigger kids just bc of his size. He has never been aggressive but he has knocked over our 7 year old and can be too playful for smaller kids.

Georgetown, TN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

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!

Oakley

American Pit Bull Terrier Labrador Retriever

Male, Young

Spring City, TN

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Oakley came from the county shelter in Feburary 2025. I believe he is three years old now. The best fit for Oakley would be a single female or couple. Although her gets along with other animals and kids he prefers an environment on the quiet side. He enjoys being outside and going for walks. He is a great alarm system and will let you know when someone is coming but does not engage. He's what I call a scaredy dog. He likes a safe place he can go to. He is funny and playful. He loves to play tag and tossing his toys around. He has brought me a lot of joy but having a pet is too confining for my lifestyle. He's a great dog. He comes with 2 xtra large kennel crates, a foldable travel kennel, a platform, toys, food, leash, cable, and extras.
