Story
Meet Buddy – A Gentle Soul Looking for His Perfect Match! Buddy is a senior Ridgeback/Black Mouth Cur mix with a heart full of love and a personality that shines once he feels safe. He may be shy at first and take some time to decompress, but once he’s comfortable, his sweet and gentle nature comes through. Buddy absolutely loves other dogs and enjoys their company. He is both house-trained and crate-trained—in fact, his crate is his happy place! When left alone, he prefers the security of his kennel, and even when his humans are home, he often chooses to relax there with the door open. This lovable senior does well on a leash and would thrive in a quiet, low-energy home with a patient adopter who understands that he needs time to adjust. While he hasn't been around young children, his gentle nature suggests he would be great with them. We don’t know how he is with cats, but he gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Buddy’s favorite toys are anything soft and squishy, and he enjoys the simple comforts of companionship. He would be the perfect match for someone looking for a loving, loyal companion who doesn’t need a high-energy lifestyle. With patience and understanding, Buddy has so much love and potential to share. Are you the kind soul ready to give Buddy the forever home he deserves?

Story
Meet Ruby! Ruby is a sweet, playful, affectionate, active, and a high jumping dog! She is 1 year old (bday is 12/24/24). We got her almost a year ago from our local animal shelter. The reason we are needing to re-home Ruby is because she needs a taller fence (standard fence height is not tall enough- she needs a 5 foot fence) as she has been jumping out of our fence. She always comes back, but it has gotten us into some trouble with the neighbors. Sadly we have had to keep Ruby tied up in the backyard to keep her from escaping. Ruby is very friendly and submissive and has never shown any aggression. She gets a long great with our kids ages 4 up to 14. She has taken on a submissive role to our other dog that we got first, and I believe she could do this with other dogs as well. Even though she is sweet and gets along with everybody, she is high energy. She does jump on people, and she needs someone to play with her and/or walk her. Ruby sleeps in her crate at night and is housetrained.

Story
Mabel (CEO of Attitude, Head of Household) 💅🐾 Mabel is 4 years old and has been with us since August 2023, when we rescued her from the urgent list at the shelter. She is a strong, dominant woman who does not take crap from anyone — including her husband Larry or his best bud Teddy. Equal-opportunity accountability. Mabel is also very quick to talk smack to other dogs as they walk by. Loud opinions. Zero hesitation. She is full of herself, and honestly? She’s earned it. She’s a gorgeous girl and she knows exactly what she brings to the table. Larry and Mabel are a bonded pair, no negotiations. They met in boarding after being rescued a few months apart, and somehow it was fate. He’s the Ricky to her Lucy. She’s prim, proper, and runs a tight ship. He’s the “I’ll chew your ear off while we walk through Home Depot because I love you so much” kind of guy. Together, they are perfection. They both adore people and will greet you with enthusiastic teeth kisses. Larry is also exceptionally skilled at turning himself into a bowling ball and knocking down the pins — and yes, the pin is you. You’ve been warned. 🥴 Mabel and Larry cannot go to a home with other animals, but trust us when we say this: the two of them are more than enough. Entertainment, companionship, chaos, and love — all included. 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚗 Transport available to other states 💲 Adoption fee: $150 total If you’re ready for a power couple with big personalities, big love, and zero apologies — Mabel (and her man Larry) are ready to move in. 🐶❤️🐶

Story
We rescued him at 18 months old. He was severly malnourished. He is about 8 years old now. My wife recently had an incident putting her in a wheelchair and she is unable to help care for him. I am a Disabled Vet, and due to my injuries, I severly struggle caring for him as well. We have recently had to crate him. He hates it so much that his nerves have created hot spots, where he scratches and eats at his hair causing hair loss. He is a very social animal and hates being locked up. He makes friends fast and loves everyone. He is great with children, cats, and other dogs. He rarely barks and is trained to go outside, even without a leash. Although he is well behaved if a leash is required. He knows all basic commands, ie. sit, stay, wait, down, etc.
