Story
Say Hello to Apple! This dark and mysterious girl is the definition of small, but mighty- you guessed it- a lot of sass and a lot of sweet packed into 5 lbs of gorgeous fluff. Coming from a defunct breeding turned hoarding situation, Apple spent the first years of her life not really knowing what it meant to be loved and cared for by a person. Because of this she can be slow to trust and warm up- however, once she does, she will steal your heart. If cuddles and kisses are your jam, then this girl might be the one for you. She loves her fur foster siblings and thrives in a setting with other small dogs she can play with and learn from. Apple will do best in a home with someone who understands that she will need a calm, quiet home with a family willing to have patience to give her the time to gain trust and confidence in her new setting. Best in a home with kids 16+ and only smaller dogs. We think Apple is just under 2 years old. Based on the information we know from the hoarding situation we believe she may be a Yorki-Cairn Terrier Mix Apple has an adoption fee of $275. She has been fully vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and is up to date on prevention. If you think that you are a good fit for Apple, please apply today! Please note that we are a completely volunteer run organization and may take 48 hours to respond. Please make sure to fully complete your application. If responses are not complete, you may not be contacted due to the volume of applications. We can only set up meet and greets once an application has been approved. Thank you for understanding.

Story
Meet Frannie — The Sweetest Little Yorkie With a Big Heart! 🐾 Frannie is a 6-year-old female Yorkie who came to us from a breeder, and she is truly as lovely as they come. With her gentle nature and soft, demure disposition, Frannie is the kind of pup who quietly wins everyone over. 💖 Personality Frannie is a total sweetheart. She adores being held, doted on, and gently petted. She’ll happily curl into your arms and give the softest, sweetest kisses. She’s naturally curious and loves exploring her surroundings at her own thoughtful pace. She’s not a barker (at least not yet!) and has a calm, easygoing presence that makes her a joy to be around. 🐶 Size & Health She’s a larger Yorkie at about 12-13 lbs — so a family ready to support gentle exercise and a healthy diet would be perfect for her. 🏡 Home Habits Frannie sleeps soundly through the night and settles easily. She is potentially pee-pad trained, but she is not yet fully house trained, so adopters should be prepared to continue working with her as she learns a new routine. 🌿 Ideal Family Frannie would be wonderful for someone who wants a cuddly, loyal companion. She would do well in a home with canine friends, cats are currently unknown. She thrives on affection and would love a home that can give her the love, structure, and patience she deserves as she transitions from a breeder environment to real family life. ✨ Why You’ll Love Her Sweet, gentle, and affectionate Loves being held and giving soft kisses Sleeps through the night Curious and enjoys exploring Quiet and calm Good with other dogs Frannie is ready to start her new chapter — one filled with warmth, comfort, and love. If you’re looking for a tender-hearted companion who will be your little shadow, Frannie might just be your perfect girl. 💕 Application Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf36Pteqr4fDg6XmKwhb4MKr5E-PvPNNvdaqaDYIJ3YElnnHQ/viewform

Meet Toto!!Sweet, shy Toto is looking for his forever home! We don't know much about his past but it's safe to say he did not have a lot of human interaction. He's been with me a few months now and has come such a long way! He gets along well with all my other dogs. He loves to be outside so a fenced in yard is ideal. He has been fully vetted and housebroken. Yay! We are working on leash training. It will take him a bit to warm up to strangers so please have patience. We are guessing that he is around 5 or 6 years old. He appears to be a terrier (possibly border terrier) mix. He has the cutest little underbite and Justin Bieber hair! I'm guessing he is around 14 pounds.If you’d like to make him part of your forever home, please apply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com if already approvedSweet, shy Toto is looking for his forever home!

Meet **LuLu**, a tiny girl with a huge heart on the mend LuLu came from a hoarding situation and arrived terrified, unsure of people, and likely mistreated.

She’s being fostered in Clarksville, TN with CoCo (rescued from the same place) and several calm, friendly pets who are helping her understand that humans and animals can be kind.

Story
Popcorn is about 18 lbs., 15 years old and according to Google lens, a West highland terrier. Animal Care Services thought he was a Maltese mix and foster mom thinks he could be a Schnauzer/Maltese mix but knows for sure that he is the cutest scruffy EVER! His journey hasn't been all snuggles and treats as he lived on someone's apartment patio for years, lying in poop, grass and other debris until Animal Care Services came for him and God's Dogs Rescue was able to save the little scamp. While he still loves his humans, other gentle pups his size (cats unknown) and his squishy toys and chewy, understandably he has a few emotional scars especially regarding vet visits and grooming. Slow, patient progress in these areas has helped him be more confident, but will need a patient adopter to help him adapt. Things that make Popcorn super happy are spending time with his humans after he gets to know them, car rides and walks in the park. He loves, loves his squishy toys and generally carries one around with him. His most favorite game is for his person to chase him and pretend to take his squishy away. He also like to run zooms and if there isn't a person to play with he will often throw his toys for himself. Doesn't that just make you want to throw his stuffies so he can play?? He's a healthy guy for his age with just a few old man issues (beginnings of cataracts) that he takes supplements for and should continue taking. His liver enzymes were high when tested but he is on a med to help them normalize. Can you give this boy the right lap to live in?? He needs very patient/knowledgeable adopters, no children- adult only because he will bite if afraid... It is a work in progress but he is becoming the goofy boy he was meant to be while living on the nasty hot and freezing porch for most of his 14 yrs :( GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)

Story
Opal came to us not spayed and with a couple of mammary masses and a mass in her ovaries. We have since spayed her and had her masses removed and biopsied and all looks good! Eyes will need to be kept on her but she is ready to find her forever home-yay! Opal is suuuuch a sweet girl and loves to snuggle and is great with other dogs. Really we think she could be good with any family! She does still need to gain some weight but now that she is with a foster they can work on that! Opal cannot be in a home with stairs-she does not like to be picked up and stairs are a challenge for her. She may have some arthritis that causes her to really not liked to be picked up and this is the only time she will get grumpy. Other than that she is a sweetie!December 9, 2025, 11:29 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  Jack loves to play, snuggle, and follow his favorite people around the house. He’s a happy pup who gets along beautifully with other dogs and cats (though if a kitty runs, he may join in the chase just for fun!). Jack can be a little shy when trying something new, and he does seem to prefer women at first. But once he warms up, his loving and playful personality shines. He’s still learning the basics — potty training, leash walking, and simple commands — but he’s eager to please and loves spending time with his humans, especially cuddled up in bed at night. Because of his size and sensitivities, Jack needs a home with no children under the age of 10. He would thrive in a home with another dog to play with and a family ready to give him plenty of love, patience, and guidance as he grows. Jack truly is a special little guy who just wants to feel safe, loved, and part of a family. Whoever adopts him will be incredibly lucky. Requires a fenced yard. Medical Notes: Neutered Vaccinated Dewormed Microchipped Heartworm Negative ProHeart 12 Injection Maintained on monthly flea/tick preventatives Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 10, 2025, 1:15 pm
