IDGSR Welcomes DARCY into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends! My name is Darcy and I'm an adorable 19 week old female Shepherd/Husky mix. I am located near Nashville TN and will be available for transport at the end of June. Quick Facts Age: 19 weeks old Kids: will do great with kids Dogs: will do great with other dogs Cats: will do fine with cats Training: needs full obedience training 1.

I need a patient adopter to teach me house & crate training and eventually obedience when I'm a little older. 4. Being so young I'll get along with anyone and everyone. If you have kids, dogs, cats, turtles, and nosey neighbors, we will all be best friends. 5. I would love to go on walks, have lots and lots of play time, tummy rubs, pup-cups, play in the water in the summer, go on hikes when I'm bigger - all the super cool things the big dogs get to do! 6.

IDGSR Welcomes OCTOBER into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hiya Friends! My name is October and I'm a beautiful 1yr old female German Shepherd. I am located near Nashville TN and will be available for transport. Quick Facts Age: 1yr old Kids: would do fine with older kids (10+) Dogs: good with large dogs Cats: NO cats Training: needs standard obedience training 1. I was in a scary shelter all alone, beginning to shut down. Concrete kennels are not good for ladies like me. Thankfully IDGSR busted me outta there & now I'm in a great foster home! 2. I'm a young girl and am still learning all sorts of things. Please be patient with me as I navigate house & crate training. If you have yummy treats, I'll pick up obedience commands quickly! 3. My dream home is with a person or family who will give me lots of love, a dog bed of my own, tasty treats, take me on walks, give lots of tummy rubs, and help me live my best life. 4. I would love to explore in the neighborhood or on walking trails, play zoomy tag with a nice male doggo, and snuggle on the couch. 5. If you are looking for a beautiful, young, resilient, friendly, athletic, and lovely new companion - I'm your girl! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY!
