Story
Meet Paris- Paris was surrendered to us on 5-2-2024, Thankfully, she came with some paperwork from her adoption at young Williams from years ago. The original adopter was in the nursing home at time of surrender ( owner did not surrender). Once we spoke with owner on the phone, we verified that the person on the phone was indeed the owner, we made a promise to not adopt her out. The owner would be adopting her back.. we understood the situation, so we kept her at the rescue and had her in foster care off and on. We took Paris to see her human for visits and had phone calls and a few emails with their caretaker. Upon an email, we were told that the owner has decided to fully relinquish the rights of ownership and does not want her back at all. This is very sad and breaks our hearts every day, because she deserves to be in a home environment that will fit her needs! Upon learning more about her, we have discovered that she was diagnosed with cushings in August of 2022, and also has arthritis. >>>>Her ideal place where she can relax and enjoy her days, would be quiet, calm and somewhere that has no steps. A ramp would be best. She will need help getting into a vehicle for appointments once a month to get to her vet for a librela shot. Paris is also on a compound medication that is given at breakfast and supper as well as 1 Dasuquin at breakfast. she loves to lay beside you on the floor and under your desk while you work! We are not sure how much she has left in her, however, she is still eating fine, drinking fine and seems to be enjoying life to the fullest! You will notice that her her legs are "bent" a little more than normal and that is from the cushings taking its toll. Think of it like you always pulling your hand backwards to your arm and keeping it there all the time...the pressure you feel, is what she feels all the time! She still likes to go for short walks ( she begs to go out to the play yard for her daily strolls ). We are searching for either a forever foster or someone that would like to adopt her and give her the best life she can possibly have. ______________________ Her diet is: Purina one adult her medication Dasuquin _______________________ Her vet for most of her life has been and still is: Monroe County Animal Hospital in Sweetwater, TN _______________________ Her routine is: eat between 7-8 am and 7-8pm lounge around and get up to go the restroom and do a slow walk around the yard and maybe lay out when its nice outside *****Please reach out to us for ANY questions about this gal!****** our website is www.woofwooffosters.org Thank You !!

Story
🐾🖤 Meet England — A Smart, Sensitive Girl Looking for the Right Person 🖤🐾 This beautiful black-and-white sweetheart is England, a young adult pup who has been through far more than any dog should. She was left behind in an apartment and arrived frightened, unsure, and trying hard to make sense of her new world. England isn’t a beginner’s dog — and that’s okay. She needs someone patient, experienced, and willing to move at her pace. Underneath her worry is a dog who wants to trust… she just needs someone who knows how to guide her gently and confidently. 💛 What England needs: • An experienced adopter or foster • A calm, predictable home • Someone who understands fearful or shutdown dogs • Patience, structure, and slow introductions • A person who believes in second chances England is not aggressive — she’s scared. And dogs like her often form the strongest, most loyal bonds once they feel safe. If you have experience with shy or under-socialized dogs and you’re looking for a dog who truly needs you, England could be your heart project — and your greatest reward. 🖤 📍 Currently at Monroe County Friends of Animals 💙 View all adoptables: mcfriendsofanimals.org If you have the heart and the skill to help England shine, please come meet her. She deserves a gentle hand and a new beginning. 🐾

Story
Cotey is 10 months old. she is a sweet gentle puppy who loves to be around people. She is kennel trained and house broken. She walks perfect on a leash. She comes when called and knows how to sit. She is great with dogs and children. She acts a little shy when first meeting new people but warms up quickly. She was given to us three months ago when her family had to move suddenly and couldnt keep her. We agreed to take her and find her a forever home so she didnt go to the pound. She loves to chew on bones, play fetch, and wrestle with our dog. She is also a very laid back puppy who doesnt mind laying around the house and snuggling. She has not been spayed yet, we have been waiting untill she gets closer to a year old. We can have her spayed or pay a clinic of your choice for her to be spayed. We are not asking for an adoption fee we just want her to go to a caring home who will treat her right and give her lots of love.

Story
🐾 Meet Kyzer – Your New Best Friend! 🐾 If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh, keep you active, and shower you with love, look no further — Kyzer is your guy! ❤️ Kyzer is a 4-year-old 77 lb Lab mix with the perfect blend of goofy Lab charm and loyal Pittie heart. He’s fully vetted, dog-friendly, and kid-friendly, making him a wonderful family companion. He would prefer a home without cats. This sweet boy was rescued off the urgent list at the local shelter in August 2024. He’s been in rescue ever since, which means he has spent the last year living in a kennel-type environment instead of in a real home. 💔 As amazing as he is, he just keeps getting overlooked — and he deserves so much more. Kyzer is full of life and personality! 🎾 He loves to play with other dogs, romp around in the yard, and go on adventures. Whether it’s fetch, a walk, or just zoomies in the grass, Kyzer is always ready to have a good time. But once the fun is over, he’s just as content to curl up by your side and soak up all the cuddles. Kyzer is the kind of dog who greets every day with a smile and every person as a new best friend. He’s affectionate, loyal, and full of joy — the kind of pup that will make you wonder how you ever lived without him. 🥰 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚗 Transport available to other states 💰 Adoption fee: $150 Now, after waiting patiently for so long, Kyzer just needs what every dog dreams of: a forever home to call his own. Could that be with you?
