Story
*housebroken *good with cats *energy and with her size no small children *no other dominant females *loves chew toys Beauty was found wandering all alone in Sweetwater, TN near the dump by a Good Samaritan who posted on Facebook in a lost and found group but no one came forward to claim her. :( Our animal control contact then reached out to us for help with this situation and connected us with the finder. At the time, the Monroe County shelter was over capacity and euthanizing on intake. When she arrived at woofwoof fosters it appeared something strange was going on with her eyes. Turns out, she had a condition called Entropion which caused her eyelashes/eyelids to grow inwards! We scheduled her for surgery ASAP as this can lead to blindness if left untreated! Beauty has since recovered from surgery and is now ready for adoption! She can be dog selective, particularly with other dominant females it seems. We plan to continue working with/testing her to further evaluate if she would be able to possibly live with another dog if their temperaments lined up or if she needs to be the only dog in the home. She would do best in a home without young children as she has a LOT of energy and not great body awareness. She loves to run and play and will require mental stimulation in her new home as well as frequent physical stimulation. We think some simple scent trail training or possibly snuffle mats may help meet her needs as she has a curious snout!

Story
Meet Dorothy — your future adventure buddy and full-time goofball! 🐾✨ At just 4 months old, this Lab mix is bursting with personality, curiosity, and puppy charm. Dorothy is always ready for her next big adventure—whether that’s exploring the backyard, splashing in water, or making new friends (and yes, that includes dogs, pigs, and even chickens… though she thinks chasing the chickens is the best game ever 😂). When the day winds down, Dorothy is happy to trade in her zoomies for snuggles. She loves her crate and is already sleeping through most nights like a pro! Her foster shares: “Dorothy is very smart… maybe a little too smart sometimes! She has lots of energy during the day, but settles down in the evening. We’re working on commands like sit, down, come, and even ‘no ma’am.’ She can get a little mouthy when she gets excited, but she is learning quickly.” Like any puppy, Dorothy is still learning the ropes. She’ll need a family ready to guide her as she works on leash manners, slowing down at mealtime, and keeping that excited puppy mouthing in check. The good news? She’s incredibly smart, eager to please, and ready to learn—she just needs someone to show her the way. With a little consistency and a lot of love, Dorothy is going to grow into the most loyal, fun-loving companion you could ask for. 💛 Ready to add some joy (and a little chaos!) to your life? Fill out an adoption application on our website and come meet your new best friend!

Story
Gwennie is an old soul in every sense of the word. Still active, this angelic spirit came into our care without a lot of information. She exudes sweet. She is dainty and playful everyone. She has learned to trust us and when she shines on you - you melt. She came to us from a shelter with every single tooth cracked/rotten or broken. All of her teeth have been removed and the difference in her is remarkable. She is like a puppy again and her face glows. Gwendolyn is special needs because she will need to be with people who will protect her from everything since she can't protect herself. She will also need soft food for the rest of her life. Without teeth, Gwennie has learned to love plush blankets and soft squishy toys (one of the benefits she has learned about her painful mouth being painful no longer). Gwennie is housetrained, but will need a patient home to create boundaries from the kitchen/bathroom counters. She will also need some time to settle in to figure out a safe place to sleep (crating her causes her anxiety). To adopt one of our animals, the first step is filling out an adoption application at www.tapsusa.org, https://tapsusa.org/why-adopt/application/ Please make sure you get a confirmation that your application has been submitted. If you are a match for one of our pets, we will reach out to you to schedule a meet and greet. All meet and greets are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY The Animal Protectorates c/o Friendsville Animal Center 706 Kiser Station Road Friendsville, TN 37737 All animals are spayed/neutered, current on age appropriate vaccinations and microchipped before they go to new homes because that's the responsible way to keep them all safe. We only adopt to local homes in the immediate vicinity because we utilize our volunteer force to process home visits. Photos of your home, letters of reference are not acceptable which is why we only adopt locally. Only in very rare circumstances do we adopt out of area. Examples of this would be finding the perfect home for a senior animal or one that has other special needs that we have not been able to place locally for an extended period of time. Thank you for wanting to adopt.
