Story
See Courtesy Posting Disclaimer * 'Hey everyone! My name is Buddy! I'm a very distinguished gentleman who loves being coddled. I don't know a bad person, but I'm not a fan of other animals. They annoy me and always get in my bubble! I'm old and don't have a lot of history behind me, and I've been passed around a lot. I don't understand why... I go out of my way to be the goodest boy, yet here I am. I'm very quiet, I don't demand walks, I don't run away! In fact, I prefer being by my hooman and lounging around. I had recently found a family that seemed to love me, and I was really happy and relieved! However, my hooman became very frail and sick and started talking about having to put me in the pound! A friend of my hooman took me in to prevent me from going to that pound, and I thank her every day with my snorty kisses! I'm a very healthy 73-pound boy with some allergies and arthritis.... remember, I am old! My foster momma said I will go to my forever home with all the basics! A crate (which I don't need!), a bed, bowls and toys and a sweater... oh! And a huge bag of food! I would prefer a home with a big sunny yard, and I want to be the only furbaby! I do tolerate my current siblings, but that's only cause my foster momma is a firm woman that watches us like a hawk. She says all the time, 'You have manners, use em!' I do like to chew on things when I'm bored, but I won't chew on your things as long as you buy me lots of chew toys! ;) Won't you take me home? I'm in my golden years and I wanna settle in my furever home. I'll show you love like you've never known! I may not know a lot of cool tricks, but I know sit, and leave it, and wait! If you want to know more about me, don't be afraid to reach out to my foster momma! She can answer everything!' Buddy’s foster mom says: I don't want any money for the things going with Buddy, all I want is for him to be happy! I'm already in love with him and I know he will make someone very happy! I will be asking for a rehoming fee, which I plan to donate to SARG. I can't always answer my phone, but I always respond to texts when I'm available and I watch my emails constantly! Please reach out to me about Buddy anytime! My number is 865-202-7667 and my email is Illingworthlily@gmail.com. [Posted 7/22/2023] *Please be aware that this animal is a courtesy posting for the owner ONLY.

Ember here. Due to landlord issues my previous owner needed to surrender me. I'm so scared here and it’s not getting much better. I really need a home with someone who will take their time to get to know me. I like other dogs and it may even be better to have another doggie friend to help me come out of my shell and learn how to “dog”. I’m stunning to look at and my coat colors (especially on my face) seem to just melt into each other. Please help me out and at least come meet me, you’ll love me. I do have an issue with sharing my food so a home with no kids or older ones who know boundaries would be best. I promise I’ll do my best to be the goodest girl ever. *Female, *Pit Bull Terrier mix, *around 2 years old $110 Adoption Fee includes; Spay/Neuter, DHPP and Rabies and Bordetella Vaccinations (age appropriate), Dewormed, Microchipped, Heartworm Tested and Flea Treated (if needed).

Story
ISO: Love and plenty of treats! Midge was rescued as a stray by our local shelter, but was chosen to participate in a very special program called H.A.L.T. In this program, she bonded with several teenage trainers who taught her basic obedience. (More about the program below.) During her month of training, Midge was full of affection for all the humans around her. Being HIGHLY treat motivated, she picked up on her training quickly. Being the perfect lady, she walks nicely on a leash and keeps her kennel clean. Midge would be happiest in a calm household with older children. She can be the "fun police", so any additional 4-legged family member would have to be pretty chill. Located in Knoxville, TN, H.A.L.T. (Humans & Animals Learning Together) is a non-profit program that provides therapeutic intervention for at-risk adolescents through a series of dog obedience training classes. With the help of adult volunteers, kids teach the dogs basic obedience commands, providing therapeutic intervention for the student trainers while increasing the adoptability of shelter dogs. The dogs are adopted into suitable homes after the class is complete.

Max here! I am a derpy, strong boy who loves being in the yard chasing squirrels. I loved most of the dogs in my former foster home, but not all of them, so I would want to meet any dog you have to make sure we get along. My ideal home would be one that has a fenced yard, or maybe even someone who can take me hunting! I have been here over a year so my adoption fee is now only $25. *Male, *Boxer/Hound mix, *5 1/2 years old, *42 pounds $25 Adoption Fee includes; Spay/Neuter, DHPP and Rabies and Bordetella Vaccinations (age appropriate), Dewormed, Microchipped, Heartworm Tested and Flea Treated (if needed). This pooch is located in Oak Ridge, TN.
