Story

The rescue story of our perfect German Shepherd boy called Aries as told by his foster mom. He is about 6-7 years and just under 80 pounds: Aries is probably the happiest dog I’ve ever had! He has a lot to celebrate and I think he knows it… I heard that a GSD was at a full local “kill” shelter and made up my mind to rescue him when I heard he had 1 more day.When I went to the shelter to pick him up, his demeanor was to maintain his distance. You could tell he was confused and on his back foot about where he was and why. Then he got a whiff of my farm boots and the great outdoors and his expression changed.Upon arrival at my farm, his personality came alive. I turned him loose in a big grassy field and he ran and sniffed and explored, always coming back to check in with me to make sure I was ok with his enthusiasm!!Since that day he has never looked back. The freedom and carefree abandon he is experiencing is evident in his happy eyes and tail wags.His best friends are two Heelers who he frolics with for hours. His most favorite toy is a big blue ball that he happily plays with when everyone else is resting. Every morning and evening when I feed him he expresses gratitude with wags and a loving lick or two to my face.The best situation for him would be a home with a big yard and lots of room to run and play. He is is a mature and settled, calm dog who has thrived here with me and his new dog friends. He prefers no cat friends!

Story

Meet Nova – A Sweet & Spirited Companion! Nova is a beautiful 2-year-old German Shepherd with a heart full of love and a zest for life! Born on December 4th, she’s a gentle, affectionate girl who thrives on attention and is especially wonderful with children. Nova has lived harmoniously with a male GSD for nearly three years, though she hasn’t had much interaction with other dogs outside of her home.She’s a curious and energetic pup with a strong instinct to chase, so a home without small animals would be best for her. Nova is incredibly athletic- so a big yard and tall fence is a must! She’s intelligent, eager to learn, and always wants to make her humans proud. Loud noises like trash trucks and fireworks can make her nervous, so she’ll do best in a calm and reassuring environment. She’s crate trained and loves having her crate door open so she can come and go as she pleases—it’s her cozy safe haven.Nova is fully vetted, spayed, and ready to find her forever family. Please email us for an application at ccrtennessee@gmail.com and ask questions if needed or for our adoption form PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.
