Story
I found Maple on the shelter’s timestamped list. She only had a few more days to live. When I began to play with her, I realized she was a remarkably sweet dog, and she nuzzled up against me the very first day. She forms bonds quickly, and loves to play with her family. However, the apartment I brought her into is too small for her, and she is reactive to other dogs. Every walk I worry that we will see them in the elevator, and she will begin to bark. I genuinely love this dog, but I do not think I am equipped to deal with her reactivity, especially as s current law student. Anyone who decides to adopt her will be bringing a loving and affectionate dog into their home. She would love a yard, and I sincerely hope she can find a place where she can be the happy dog she is meant to be. Will come with a crate, toys, doggy bags, a harness, and a leash.

Story
Maddie is a good girl who knows how to sit, stay, lie down, leave it, and take treats gently. She is fully house trained and loves her crate, although she does very well having the entire house when we are away. She is a great companion for long walks or hikes. She loves cuddling, exploring the yard, laying in the sun, chewing on raw hides, and simply being in the company of her humans. We have a new baby in the house and while we have never had an issue with Maddie being aggressive towards people, she did display some concerning behavior towards our baby. We also no longer have the time to care for Maddie properly. This has brought us to the difficult decision to rehome her. Maddie would be best fit for a family with older kids/teens or just adults and no pets. Though Maddie doesn't get along with other dogs, she is non-reactive towards them if given a little distance. She has a lot of energy and lot of love to give to the right family.

Rocky is 1 years old! I got him from a family friend when he was 15weeks. Unfortunately, i am moving and apartments that allow dogs are super expensive so i cannot take him with me! Rocky needs someone who will love and cherish him! He’s such a sweet boy. He has his moments, but other than that i can say that he is the best dog i ever had. He loves to play and go for walks. He’s adventurous and one of a kind!

Hello, I'm Angel and I'm seeking for my new bff! If you want to be my bestie, you'll need to live up to the job! LOL. I can't be furever friends with anyone who doesn't love a good cuddle on the couch, or an occasional road trip to Rita's or Starbucks! You have to be cool and want me as much as I want you - no other furfriends! I love to meet people though, so if you have other human buds, I'm down. I would love to be your office pal or wait on the couch for you to come home from work each day. I'm really flexible and cool and don't like drama so you won't have to deal with any nonsense from me. No chewing, no barking, no begging here! At three years old, I'm ready to leave my old and sad life in the past and only look forward to a bright furever if you give me the chance. Waiting to meet you! Angel   ##1622851##

Story
Gypsy was a stray. A man in Raymond, Mississippi found her and took her to the pound. They were going to euthanize her, and he took her home. She did not like his cats, so he surrendered her to us. She LOVES to run and play, and she needs a lot of exercise. She does good with most all dogs, but she is shy when she meets new people. Gypsy does not like cats! Once she warms up to people, she just wants to give kisses! Her ideal home would be a person or family that has a large yard for her to run and play in. She would be the best dog to do activities with or just cuddle with on the couch. She should be fine in a large, fenced yard. She can be hyper at times but settles down nicely inside with a chew toy. Gypsy is in boarding now, and she desperately needs a forever family!! We use the most animal-friendly transport on the road. Rescue Riders Pet Transport.

East TN. Out of state welcome! If you are seeing this on adopt a pet the float for transport and health certificates for travel are included in the adoption fee. Transport may be available to your area in the northeast or Great Lakes areas. We use Rescue riders for our transport needs because they are amazing with our pups! Meet Thumper! This little guy is about 40 lbs of playful and fun energy. He’s sweet and good with people and other dogs. He’s about 2.5 years old and is a mixed breed but a really cool Mixed breed. I mean look at his cute ears. He’s adorable. He’s already crate trained and house trained. NO CATS. He is not fond of cats. Probably won’t do well with smaller rodent type animals either. He will scream SQUIRREL! And the rest is history. Haha. He would do well with children over the age of 10 bc he’s very playful and may knock smaller children down during playtime.
