Story
Shiloh has had an unfair start to life. Shiloh was rescued from a an extremely elderly lady who wouldn't keep her in the house because she was afraid the dog would cause her to fall. She kept Shiloh in the back yard all winter, and she started escaping the fencing from loneliness. This resulted in the woman putting her in a metal crate with no bottom or blankets so she could wash it out with a water hose. When Bonnie Lou found out about this, she contacted a rescue who said they would take this lovely girl. So, Bonnie brought her to her own home, inside the house. Then the rescue who is known for this stunt, dumped Shiloh on Bonnie permanently. No story needs to get to be this sad. This pup is adorable and gorgeous to boot. She is full of curiosity, and wants to interact with both people and dogs. GreenePets is doing a courtesy post for Bonnie Lou, and we have the ability to arrange transport to other states, so please someone open your heart to this babydoll.

Story
Bella & her running buddy, were left on the streets to fend for themselves. They had been wandering around that neighborhood for a while and befriended a kind business owner who made sure they did not go hungry. Thanks to that Good Samaritan who gained their trust, they were taken in & have been in foster care since. She has gained 20 pounds since then and is doing great! She is approx 3 years old & is fully vetted. As you can see in the video, she is a loving playful pup. Bella is a joyful soul who bonds closely to her people. This 60 lb dreamboat will steal your heart and shower you with love every day. Her furever family is going to be lucky beyond belief. If you are interested in learning more about this really sweet and deserving girl, please feel free to text or call Alecia Clark, @ 901-486-2850. We are a rescue organization located with our dogs in Tennessee and have weekly transport available for our pups to relocate up north with their new forever families. His adoption fee of $275 includes her vaccinations, spay, microchip and transport to her new furever home. Since a meet and greet is not possible prior to adoption, our adopters make their decision to adopt based on pictures, videos and talking to the foster parent. We will do everything possible to make sure she is the perfect match for you and your family & will be with you every step of the way.

Story
Meet our local celebrity, Dora the Explorer! Dora is around 2.5 years old and she weighs around 58 lbs. Dora was spotted for over 1 year traveling a wide area and numerous concerned citizens became concerned that Dora had lost her way and her family. A group of volunteers made it their mission to rescue Dora. After being caught it was evident that at some point she had a family that loved her because she knew many commands and was proving to be a very intelligent girl. Dora is very playful. She bonds to her humans very quickly and would just love to be a couch potato when she is not out in the yard entertaining herself or having fun playing fetch. Her foster family has several older dogs and Dora seems fine with them, however, Dora would do great as well, as a single dog family because she loves her people! Any questions about her can be answered by her foster mom and we can put you in touch with her. Dora is ready to travel when the perfect home is found for her.

Story
Joan of Barc was dumped on the side of the road in Alabama nearly dead. The vet said she was almost bred to death. She had heart-worms and various other injuries, but she's now HW free, spayed, and healthy! Because of her questionable former life she does not do well with cats, and is currently in training and getting better with dogs each time. She doesn’t know how to interact with them and gets over-excited and makes them uncomfortable. She LOVES humans, big and small. She's been around children and is amazing with all ages. Older kids would be better because she is strong and sometimes forgets her strength. She is house trained and crate trained; and along with her training on how to interact with other dogs, she is learning leash walking and other basic commands. She is very food motivated and extremely smart, picking up new training in no time. She also redirects from stressful situations very easily as long as you have a treat. :) She has an average amount of energy but her favorite pastime is chewing on water bottles and watching TV. She is a very gentle soul and the bestest girl. She was abused in her previous life and deserves to live in luxury the for the rest of it. She needs someone looking for a companion, but it doesn't matter what kind - family, adventure, couch potato- she can do it all. She just enjoys life now that it's not at the end of a chain. She's the bestest, sweetest doll baby and all she needs is a chance. Things she excels at: 🐶 Napping 🐶Snuggling 🐶 Helping with household chores 🐶 Zoomies 🐶Snacking Watch our Facebook video here If Joan would be the perfect addition to your family, please apply💜! If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at http://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/adoption-application PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT NORTH TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED.

Story
CHARLESTON IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN. CHARLESTON WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE HE IS ADOPTED!    This hunk is Charleston. He is a four year old Bulldog mix. He is the sweetest fun loving goofball. He is a big boy who loves attention. He wants you to pet him, and he wants to lean into you with his whole body. He does not meet a stranger in a person or dog. He loves playing in the backyard with his toys, and then lounging on the porch sunbathing. He gets excited to go anywhere. He will run to the door and wait for you to let him out- then he jumps right in the car. This adorable boy has the most stunning eyes. We believe Charleston has some hearing loss. He seems to hear some pitches, but either doesn’t hear the others or ignores them. He does good walking on a leash, is kennel trained, and house trained. He loves greatly- he will become your shadow. If he wants your attention he will whine/talk to you to let you know. Charleston is a big boy with still a lot of puppy energy so a home with older children would be best. This guy is amazing, and deserves the perfect forever home! He is fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped.  His adoption fee of $500 includes the transport to PA.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Charleston up north to his new family.   If you have any questions, please email us at:   newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com You can apply to adopt Charleston  here: www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 22, 2024, 8:36 pm

Story
**WILLOW IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN, AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE ADOPTED** Meet Willow.  This itty-bitty girl might be the runt of the litter, but she has a ginormous personality and isn't afraid to show it off! Weighing in at a whopping 9 lbs @ 10 weeks old, she loves to play with her 85 lb foster brother, yell at her sister Cricket for dirt rolling her, sneak attack june bugs, and take spontaneous naps. She is a serious, SERIOUS cuddle bug and if given the chance, she would sleep on your face! Not even kidding.  Very affectionate, seems to take correction well, and even tempered for her age.  Zoomies - probably the most adorable zoomies I've ever seen in my life. We have not started leash training yet, but plan on doing so within the next couple of weeks.  She is crate trained, sleeps through the night, working on potty training but we still have accidents - she's 10 weeks old, accidents are going to happen.  We were told her litter was American Bulldog, but we honestly have no idea what these little grass goblins are mixed with until they get a little bit bigger. Willow will be ready for adoption on or around May 21st.  At that time, she will be fully vetted, microchipped, and spayed.  Willow's adoption fee of $550.00 includes transportation to PA.   We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Willow to her new family. If you have any questions, please email us at newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com,  and we will answer as soon as we possibly can. You can apply to adopt Willow here: www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!
