Story
Located in Memphis, Tennessee but we do adopt out of state for the right fit. From Bonnie's foster mom: Bonnie is one of the sweetest dogs I have ever fostered. Everyone that has met her has fallen in love with her. She is a cuddle bug and a velcro dog. All she wants to do is be with her human. She enjoys dog chews, toys, and treats but her favorite thing in the world is attention from her human. She loves men, women, and kids. She is always happy, gentle, and appropriately behaved with whomever she meets. She walks well on a leash and really enjoys walking in the park. Bonnie loves car rides. She gets in the car well on her own, but is a little afraid when jumping out, probably due to her vision impairment. She is calm in the car and always falls asleep. She has done great with other dogs she has met in my home and at the shelter. However, she needs a patient dog because due to the lack of vision in her right eye, she tends to bump into other dogs when walking or playing. She seems to really enjoy following my dog around the yard and just doing whatever he is doing. Bonnie is a medium energy dog. She is very playful with other dogs and is also very vocal in her play. She doesn't always pick up on social cues from other dogs, but she does take corrections well. We would prefer for Bonnie to go to a home with another dog friendly dog. She loves the companionship and playtime with other dogs. She would not do well as an only dog. All in all, Bonnie is a wonderful, intelligent, social dog. She has so much love to give and is so deserving of a forever family that will return that love.

Story
Location is Tennessee Tater is a sweet, chonky, loveable 3-year-old bully mix. The Good: Tater LOVES training and taking long walks. He has a great recall and is really good at ignoring other dogs and people on walks! He is crate trained and potty trained and loves to snuggle with his people. Tater gets SOOOO excited his whole body will wiggle, and yes, it is the CUTEST! Tug is one of his favorite games, and he loves playing with Jolly Balls & in his pool in the summer. I know it sounds like Tater is PERFECTION (we think he is!) but there are some really important things to know... Tater's Situation: Tater spent the last few years of his life living in a home with two other canine siblings. When Tater had access to ample exercise and socialization with humans (Tater could go to work with his mom!), he did well with the other two dogs. Unfortunately, due to unforeseeable changes in his mom's life, Tater was no longer able to go to work and longer work hours plus a new baby made exercising Tater & the other dogs extremely difficult. Tater and one of his siblings began to have conflicts that escalated to the point of it becoming an unsafe environment for Tater and his doggy sibling. As a result of all the changes in his world, he has become overstimulated with lack of enrichment and exercise. Resource guarding items, whether it is toys or food is a response Tater has developed to help himself feel safe. This is not an appropriate behavior, and Tater will need continued guidance getting back on track. Tater's Needs: Tater is NOT for a first-time dog owner. He needs an experienced dog owner who will be completely committed to his success. Tater needs plenty of exercise and enrichment to keep his brain engaged. We would consider a home with other dogs (max 2) with stable temperaments and plans to keep Tater and his siblings safe. We also do not recommend homes with young children (under the age of 13), because of Tater's history of resource guarding. Tater has had an evaluation from a trainer and a veterinarian who both believe Tater has the potential to shine in the appropriate home, but unfortunately everyone has given up on Tater thus far. If interested in Tater, please complete the following application: https://www.battleforthebully.org/adoption Please contact lovingthebullies@gmail.com with questions.

American Pit Bull Terrier

Story
Meet Ivy: Your Future Best Friend! Ivy is a sweet and joyful dog who truly deserves a second chance at life. Rescued from the side of the road in poor condition, this brave girl has blossomed since being taken in. Initially timid, Ivy quickly warmed up to her new surroundings. She is fully vetted and spayed. We don't think she will get over 45-55lbs. She is less than 18' tall. This happy little lady adores attention, especially to be pet by anyone willing to show her some attention, and is always eager for a good treat, walk, or play session. Ivy is very inquisitive. She wants to know what is in every cupboard and box. She is always looking out the window or gate to see what is happening. Ivy walks beautifully on a leash, is crate trained, house trained and knows some basic commands. She is very smart and quick to learn. She knows how to wait, follow, and tap your hand for a treat. She is a jumper, so we continue to work on her jumping. She still chases the cat but has no intent of hurting them. She does not respond negatively when the cat corrects her. She continues to play with her foster sibling, which is a Golden, so a home with a playmate IS A MUST! She does have a high-pitched cry when she thinks she has been left behind. She grunts when she is happy. She has a lot of energy and is very sociable. She sleeps through the night. She sucks on her blanket when she sleeps. She snores at night. She even has the cutest burps after she eats too fast. Bonnie has adjusted well to home life and can navigate stairs with ease. Nothing phases her—not even the vacuum cleaner! Ivy has a healthy appetite (She even has the cutest burps after she eats too fast.) and enjoys car rides, making her the perfect adventure buddy. Although Ivy is a velcro dog and loves to be with her human, she would fit best in a home with a playmate. While she’s friendly with everyone she meets, Ivy would thrive best in a cat-free home. She would benefit from a fenced yard where she can play and run. Ivy leans against her foster mom's leg when she is working in the kitchen. She lays on her feet when she is sitting. She likes to snuggle on the couch. She is such a happy and affectionate dog. If you’re searching for a playful companion who’s ready to share love and create wonderful memories, Ivy is the perfect match for you!

Diamond

American Pit Bull Terrier Boxer

Female, Young
Lebanon, TN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Diamond was previously surrendered to a vet clinic after being hit by a car. She was originally left with 2 broken back legs but she now gets around well after surgery and months of rehab. She LOVES balls and nature walks. Should be fine with older children (8 or older) but is not gentle enough to have around young infants. She gets along with other dogs to the point that she goes to doggy daycare but needs to be fed separately from other dogs (food aggression with dogs) people are fine to take food from her though! My main reason for rehoming is because Diamond began behaviorally urinating in the house after I had my daughter. I can’t keep up with an infant and a large breed dog peeing in the house. Anxiety meds have helped but she needs to be in a home with adults or be a mostly outside dog.

Story
Tik-Tok is a very sweet boy. I work for a dog daycare and the owner abandoned him here. He has been here over a year now. He is not good with other dogs so he can be the only dog in the home. He loves all people. All he wants is to be loved on all day. He is a very easy dog to take care of. Keep him feed and loved and a couple trips outside a day and he will love you. He rather sit in your lap and get petted than anything else.

Story
Meet Diamond! Diamond is a sweet and energetic 1-year-old, 45-pound Heeler/Pit mix who’s ready to find her forever family. She loves to play, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and thrives on companionship. While our cat is a bit too shy to interact with her, Diamond has shown no signs of chasing or aggression. We haven’t had the chance to observe her around children, but her loving and gentle personality suggests she’d be a great fit for a family. Since she’s full of energy, she’d do best with an active owner or family who can provide plenty of exercise, attention, and playtime. Diamond is crate trained, housebroken, spayed, up-to-date on all her shots, and microchipped. With her adoption, you’ll also receive her soft-sided crate (where she sleeps), two beds, blankets, toys, and food. We’re happy to bring Diamond to you for a meeting so you can see how she fits into your environment. If you think Diamond might be the perfect addition to your family, let’s connect!

Story
This is Ziggy and hes one of the sweetest little guys on the planet. He originally belonged to my ex-girlfriend, but when she had to give him up, I took over because I didnt want to see him go. Unfortunately, Im not able to keep him due to current living/job situations. Hes never bitten anyone before, think hes a lap dog, and really just wants to cuddle or play. It breaks my heart to give him up, but Im in a position where I dont know what to do and I dont have much time left. Hes been with me for about three years now and while its gotten frustrating at times, he has almost always been the perfect best friend for me.
