Story
Mother Nature This honey colored guiding force is a seasonal lady that will hit you with the biggest wind force of love! She is an in shape whirlwind of a Goddess, with an appetite for adventure. She has endless energy, she loves to zoom, and needs a family to run her, train her and play with her. She is a nurturer and wants to please you. Mother Nature’s eyes are the color of piece of salted Carmel and you just want to gobble her up. She gets along with other dogs, and is an excellent family addition. She would greatly enjoy going exploring in the Cumberland Mountains with her new family or walking with you along the banks of a river while you fish. Mother Nature enjoys the outdoors, would benefit tremendously from an experienced dog owner who could work with her to walk on a leash and have the ability to bloom and adore her new found family. She is approximately a 1–2 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback / Black Mouth Cur/Labrador mix. This lovely lady will make your life fulfilling in Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall!

Story
Tyke came to Bonaparte's because he had a terrible injury in his hind leg where he was shot and needed an amputation. The leg was fractured but there were also bullet fragments trying to push themselves out. Tyke has since had the amputation and healed beautifully and we have discovered what a love this guy is...truly the perfection definition of a gentle giant. He is great with cats, good with little dogs, good with kids and most people. There is a certain type of male that can trigger his anxiety so we are working on figuring out that that type is. He also does seem to have a bit of separation anxiety which can cause him to sometimes have an accident in the house but we are working on it and paper towels are his fave when his foster is gone so those would need to be out of reach-but really with how just perfect this guy is that is an easy fix in a home! Other than that he is house broken and just truly perfection! He is a strong guy on leash so be prepared for his excitement to pull you along! His fosters are also working on that!March 3, 2026, 3:31 pm

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?
