Story
Introducing the perfect pup for BIG dog lovers, Lincoln! Lincoln is a 5 month old, 40lb lab/great Dane mix that was saved from imminent euthanasia after being dumped out on the street by his “owners” 😢 but two of our fosters saw him and his brother and knew their lives were worth saving. We are so glad we did! Lincoln is big, snuggly, happy, and GOOFY. He is already almost fully potty trained, knows how to use a doggie door, gets along wonderfully with the other dogs in his foster home and is learning how to interact with kitty cats. Lincoln is social and takes corrections well, which is good, because he’s a big goof and doesn’t quite realize his size. He is working on his leash manners and managing his excitement when he sees other dogs while on leash, so he will need a patient human that will work with him! Lincoln loves everyone he meets, big or small, and wants to play play play! He currently lives with a crawling infant & he has learned quickly how to be gentle around him. This handsome big boy needs a family familiar with large dog breeds, ideally with a big yard and/or active family that can meet his exercise needs. After a good romp in the yard or long walk, he is the nap king and wants all the snuggles. Is Linc the big boy you’ve been looking for? He’s ready to meet his forever family!

Charlee Litterer is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home! Charlee is a stunning brindle and white Dane mix with playful puppy energy! She’s house-trained, crate-trained, and doing great on leash—though she can be a bit enthusiastic and may pull. Charlee rides well in the car and loves making friends, both human and canine. She’d thrive in an active home that can keep up with her energy and continue her training. If you are interested in adopting this dog please complete the adoption application at www.rhodehomerescue.org/adoption-form to become a pre-approved adopter. If you were already approved through Rhode Home Rescue within the last 6 months, contact us today!

Ziva is a beautiful, healthy, sweet, gentle giant. She just turned 4yrs old in March 2025. She is home trained and will signal when she needs to go outside. Before I took her in she lived with two French bullies so she gets along with other dogs. She enjoys playing outside but also simply laying around the house. She is used to dog meditation music. Lol She is great with kids and is protective, my nephews love but don’t have the space. Hoping to find her a loving home with ample space. She truly is special, my lifestyle changes and allergies is only reason seeking her a new home

Story
Beaux is living it up in Connecticut with a wonderful foster and foster siblings.Beaux is a big, handsome boy who enjoys long walks (He was in the Christmas parade this past year). Beaux's previous owner found himself down on his luck, and both he and Beaux ended up in a bad place. Thanks to some really nice people, both got the help they needed. Beaux's owner was not able to take him back home, but Beaux found a great place to hang out while waiting for my forever home. Beaux is a medium-energy dog and is happy to go for a walk and then chill with his people. He likes playing with toys but also likes getting attention from people, chilling on the sofa, watching TV, and eating all the popcorn. Beaux loves people and other dog. Best to feed him separately as we were told he has some resource guarding with his food but so far at the Resort they have not seen this.This boy has been calm and just loves the attention of children, but we are saying older kids due to his size and activity level. And he passed his cat testing!!!Beaux is housetrained and also is crate-trained but is not the biggest fan of being in his crate. He is also leashed trained but still will pull sometimes. So as you can see a little proper training to fine tune the little things and you will have an amazing buddy. Beaux perfect home/family should be familiar with larger dogs. An active person or family would be great, but you do not need to be super active. Beaux's size might be a bit much for some, but once you get to know him, you will see his heart is as big as he is.Check them out playing with his canine foster sibling and passing his cat test very well:https://youtube.com/shorts/qhoRWrcFAow?si=GVGvLpes4pjBtn8ehttps://youtube.com/shorts/sUMnqvRlI1A?si=nosC-Z9j9TpVS-8mName: Beaux Local Breed: Crossbreed - something cute - maybe some Great Dane in there.Sex: MaleAge: 5 years 10 months (4/21/25 estimated)Weight: 72 lbs as of 4/21/25 Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm:  Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS: Good with Children: Over 7Good with Dogs: Yes Really likes the bigger dogs more than small.Good with Cats: YesAdoption Fee: $400.00Location of dog currently:  ConnecticutIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
LOCAL TN ADOPTION ONLY. The good.....He is kennel trained. Goes in very easily with treats. Will run right in if a treat is thrown in there. Will bark for a few minutes but settles. If he’s in a crate, in a room alone and he hears a lot of commotion, he will bark. If you’ve left and the house is quiet, he’s quiet. He’s great in the kennel if someone is in the same room with him though. He likes being with his people. He happily snoozes in an open kennel during the day if you’re working from home and the kennel is near your work area.Scooby is a goof! There’s not much he takes too seriously. Besides treats. Treats are serious business! He will do just about anything for a treat. Even stuff he really doesn’t want to do. But treats are life. He’s overall an easy dog that is sweet, happy, cuddly and isn’t overly energetic. He loves playing and is a bulldozer but he relaxes and naps a lot too. He doesn’t require mass amounts of exercise. He is more than happy to lounge around in bed and watch tv with his humans. The bad...He snores. It’s not quiet...He hates small dogs, if your neighbor has one he will make it his life"s mission to eradicate it. He is generally good on a leash until aforementioned small dog walks up, then he will happily chill with you while you recover from your rotator cuff repair. LOCAL ADOPTION ONLY IN TN.The Adoption Fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea, Tick and Heartworm Treatment and Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and Treated as Needed.Scooby's adoption fee (picked up locally in Crossville, Tennessee) is $225. He is not available for out of state adoption.Thank You for Your Interest in Adopting a Canine Companion from Foccas-tn.org!To Apply Please Copy and Paste to Your Browser:https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=hb2428&method=online_form_html&formid=41LOCATED IN CROSSVILLE, CUMBERLAND COUNTY, TN.
