Story
Hello! My name is Krypto! I am pretty shy and sweet, but a clever girl too! I would definitely need a yard with a fence or I will be like Houdini! I can be known to play a little too rough with the cat, so I wouldn't like to live with one. My litter was born to a nice older lady when she rescued my mom! We are working on our manners now and are potty trained and crate trained. My humans are willing to travel to find me the perfect home. We're all very happy, healthy and I am ready to find my special human that will help me grow and become a hero's dog!

Story
Hello! My name is Blanco.. cause I am all white! I am one of 8 pups but one of the most relaxed of the bunch. My mom was rescued by this sweet elderly lady, and now we are ready to find our fur-ever homes! I can be very cuddly and sweet; a rather reserved gentleman if I do say so myself! I am learning to be the best distinguished boy and I love to run, so a fenced in yard is ideal! I would love to meet new people and become their best buddy soon!

Story
Iris (Wrinkles, Wiggles & Zero Filter) 💕🐾 Gorgeous Iris is 2 years old and a full-blown lovebug. Yes, her adorable wrinkly face will stop you in your tracks — but somehow her personality is even better. She absolutely loves people and meeting new ones. Strangers? Never heard of them. Friends she just hasn’t kissed yet? Absolutely. Speaking of kisses… Iris will smother you with them whether you asked for it or not, so you should probably just be prepared to enjoy it. She is fully convinced she’s a lap dog and expects to be treated as such. Iris also wants to be your number one and only, which means she’s happiest in a home without other animals. According to Iris, sharing attention is unnecessary and frankly offensive — and we respect her honesty. This girl LOVES to talk. She has the cutest little raspy voice and will happily voice her opinions on just about everything. Late letting her outside? You’ll hear about it. Late with breakfast? Definitely hearing about it. Giving another dog attention (even on TV)? Oh yes… she has thoughts. Iris is high-energy, affectionate, hilarious, and full of life. We know her perfect family is out there and that when they find her, it’s going to be a perfect match. Important note: Iris is heartworm positive and currently on the slow-kill method, as she is not a fan of being confined to strict bed rest. She’s doing great and living her best energetic life. 📍 Located in Cleveland, TN 🚗 Transport available to other states 💲 Adoption fee: $150 If you’re looking for a dog who will love you fiercely, talk to you constantly, and keep life entertaining — Iris is ready to be your one and only. 💖🐶

Story
Please contact Adoptions (adoptions@thalppc.com) for more information about this pet. Jedi is a 10 year old American Bulldog mix boy that weighs 55 pounds. He rescued from Walker County shelter with some other dogs and kittens due to overcrowding. He is the absolute sweetest most docile man who has the cutest little snore when he sleeps. As a senior he does not have many teeth left. He also tested positive for Heartworms and will be undergoing treatment starting in March. We are grateful we get to help him on the road to being cured and to finding a home. Jedi is super chill and is happiest when he can snuggle next to you. He will often lay his head on your knee if you are sitting at the front desk and look at you with his sweet puppy dog eyes. He will even curl up in the desk chair right behind you as he just likes to be close to someone.   The adoption fee is $75 which includes a free veterinary exam within 2 weeks of adoption at local participating vets, up to date vaccinations, test for heartworms & heartworm preventative medication, dewormer, flea preventative, microchip, & spay or neuter.We're open Wednesday - Sunday 12 - 5 p.m but doing adoptions and meet & greets by appointment only.  If you are seriously interested in adopting please fill our our online application here: https://bit.ly/3HN4Tqq Check out our website at https://www.petplacementcenter.com/    February 1, 2026, 9:29 pm
