Lucy was surrendered from her family because hospice came and the family could no longer care for her. Lucy is a very affectionate little girl that loves to snuggle under the covers with you at night. She loves to walk on a leash and go for car rides. During her vetting, she was found to be heartworm positive. She has completed all vetting and had her heartworm treatment. She is looking for a family to call her own. She does have an underbite, but otherwise very healthy now. Will you be that family to give her a new life in the new year? She is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Story
Jack was born in rescue after his mother was surrendered when owner passed away. He and his sister were the only surviving pups. The mother rejected them at 2 weeks, and they were bottle fed until able to eat puppy food. Jack is a good and smart little boy. He has mastered pee pad training and will start learning house training very soon. We do not allow puppies to touch ground until they have received multiple distemper parvo vaccinations. His siter is with a foster to adopt and now it's Jack's turn to find his family. Look into those eyes and tell me he isn't the most handsome little guy. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mocha is a joyful, playful pup who absolutely adores people and other dogs. Her favorite activities include tug-of-war, chasing her doggy friends while they fetch the ball, and splashing around in any water she can find — even her water bowl in her crate! She’s crate trained and quiet when resting, and she’s fully potty trained, able to hold overnight for up to 10 hours. Mocha thrives outdoors, especially when she gets to swim — she’s a true water lover! Still growing and learning, Mocha knows basic commands and would benefit from continued training to help her shine even brighter. She’s looking for an active family who can keep up with her energy and enthusiasm, and she’d be thrilled to have some fur siblings to play with. If you’re ready for a fun-loving, water-obsessed companion who will bring endless joy to your home, Mocha might just be your perfect match! Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue microchips all dogs and cats before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades and are another form of identification should the animal get lost. The microchips are registered to    Happy Days Dog and Cat Rescue. The adopter's information is added once the adoption is complete. The adopter is responsible for a $19.99/Year registration fee or a $45.00/Lifetime registration fee to change information.    Dogs and Cats still need to have collar with tags should they get lost.
