Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hello There!My name is Twinkie. I am looking for my twin. Could you be my twin? They say that twins do a lot together and have lots of fun! If you like hanging out, meeting other dogs and kisses, then you might be it! I am getting the hang of potty training, walking on a leash and gaining confidence in my foster home! My foster momma says that I love my companion foster dog friend. I really enjoy playing with toys and I really like animal based chews. So, how about it? Wanna be twinkies together?

Story

This gorgeous girl is so lucky to be alive! We were driving down a busy four lane highway when we spotted her run across the highway barely missing getting run down by a large box truck. She ran into the parking lot of a Dollar General so we immediately pulled into the parking lot and luckily she ran up to our van and jumped right in! We tried and tried to find her owner but to no avail. It's hard to see in the pics but she has one blue eye and one golden eye. We suspect she had a little Husky in her but we did a DNA anyway, lots and lots of breeds in her DNA, including 5% Chihuahua! She's a super mutt! Clarice is spayed, fully vaccinated, crate trained and microchipped. She is available for immediate transport PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSEE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE $500

Story

Ruthie's story is very sad. Her owners (never found) tied her to a telephone pole at a gas station in the middle of the night on a cold winter's night. Two young men who pulled in to get gas early in the morning saw her and took her into their car. They then contacted us to see if we could take her in. She was so scared and freezing cold she just cowered in fear for about a week. We are convinced that she was physically abused as well. Little by little she started to come out of her shell. We left her in our nursery building for a few weeks because we thought she may be pregnant. It was obvious that she had had a litter at some point in her life. Turns out she wasn't pregnant so we put her in with the general population where she has thrived. She loves playing with the puppies, she's great with cats and wonderful with children as all Pitties are. She has been spayed, is heart worm negative, fully vaccinated, crate trained and house broken to a doggie door. She is small for a Pittie so we call her a "Pocket Pittie" Ruthie needs her forever home, could that be you? She is ready for immediate transport. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE LOCATED IN TENNESSE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEET OUR PETS PRIOR TO ADOPTION! ADOPTION FEE: $400

Story

Harley anne is an extremely sweet girl- we rescued her from dog fighting when she was younger. She is amazing with all humans including kids and babies, but is very dog selective. We would like her new home to be experienced to help give her the attention and activity she needs. She is a fiddler and will take up the whole bed if you let her. We are so sad to be rehoming her and need her to go to a family that will love her as much as we do.

Story

Batman is a 8 year old, sweet dog. He loves people, cuddles, and attention. He was the runt of the litter, so he is not as big as his siblings. We are looking for a home where he can continue to be loved and cares for. Ideally, it would be a home where he would get lots of cuddles, walks, and attention. Although he is good with kids, he gets too excited when meeting new people so little kids tend to get pushed over. He has never snapped at anyone, but he has licked people silly.

Meet Mary Jo, she affectionately known by the staff as MJ. MJ was transferred to us from one of our transfer partners in hopes to find her forever home. Mary has a funky little walk, turns out long ago she had an injury to her hip an her body healed itself with no veterinary care. You would never know, it doesn't slow her down at all. She still has lots of pep in her step! MJ would love a cozy home with a nice place to curl up at the end of her day with her favorite toy. She is not a fan of small animals, so no cats or small dogs for this girl. MJ has been waiting for her family for far too long, ask about her today!
