Story
Bear is a 1-year-old male GSD with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s incredibly sweet, loyal, intelligent, and playful. He thrives on attention and loves being around his people. He is very smart and eager to learn and would do best in a home where he can get plenty of mental stimulation, exercise, and continued training. He enjoys staying active and would make a great companion for someone who has the time and energy to work with him consistently. He has a fun, energetic side but is also affectionate and loving once he settles in.We are looking for a new home for him because our family’s schedule no longer allows us to give him the time and attention he deserves, and one of us has also developed allergies. This has been a very difficult decision because he truly is a wonderful dog. We would love for him to go to a home with someone who understands the German Shepherd breed and is excited to continue helping him grow into an amazing lifelong companion.

Story
For years, Marge wandered the Old Hickory Blvd area, outsmarting every attempt to trap or catch her. This clever 7 year old German Shepherd mix survived on her own, wary of people and trusting no one. That is, until one patient and kind resident slowly earned her trust. And one day she walked inside. 💛 That was the moment Marge discovered something life changing. Humans are not so bad after all. Now this resilient girl has blossomed into a sweet companion who is learning what love, comfort, and safety truly feel like. After spending years fending for herself, she is finally ready to find what she has never had before. A real family. - What Marge Needs • A secure, fenced yard where she can feel safe and explore • A patient and loving family willing to continue building her confidence • A home without small children, as she is still a little jumpy around tiny humans • Commitment to her care. She is heartworm positive, but we will cover the full cost of treatment. Her forever family simply needs to make sure she gets to her appointments. At 7 years old, Marge is not looking for chaos. She is looking for comfort. Soft beds. Gentle voices. People who will show her that she never has to survive on her own again. She's kennel trained and is doing well with her leash practice. She spent years being brave. Now she deserves to just be loved. If you are ready to give this smart, soulful girl the forever home she has waited so long for, Marge is ready to meet you.
