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.

Greyhound Whippet

Female, Adult
Signal Mountain, TN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
She's a mutt from the shelter cuz I rescued her as a puppy. She's 10 years old, but is still very spry and quick. She's nervous around new people, but after a little consistency she'll know you and trust you and always protect and look out for you. She's smart as a whip so if anything around you is new or different or moving, she'll bark and let you know. This includes any people, so no one will ever ever break into your home without you knowing. Great dog in the house- she learns where you want/don't want her to go very quickly and she never has accidents. She'll want attention and pets for 5 minutes, then she'll go chill in her bed by herself for 3 hours. Loves walks and car rides, but is just fine if she doesn't get them, too

Story
Meet Toffee (brindle) and Heath (white), a bonded pair of one-and-a-half-year-old Catahoula mix brothers with an unshakable connection. These two grew up side by side and have been inseparable ever since. Toffee is hearing-impaired and looks to Heath as his guide and emotional support, while Heath takes that role to heart, always looking out for his brother. Both boys are friendly and affectionate, though they can be a bit timid in new situations. Once they warm up, their personalities shine—Heath is the energetic social butterfly, always ready for playtime or a walk, and Toffee brings a gentle, calming presence with his sweet, soulful eyes. They love running and playing together, whether it’s chasing each other around the yard or stretching out in the grass for a good nap. Their bond makes them the perfect team—Heath gives Toffee confidence, and Toffee keeps Heath grounded. They’re looking for a home that will embrace their unique connection and give them both the love, patience, and space to thrive. With Toffee and Heath, you’re not just adopting dogs—you’re gaining a loyal duo that will fill your life with double the love and twice the tail wags.
