Story
This puppy is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $250 if picked up in TN, $325 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions. Meet Alice, the 9-month-old Aussie mix who walks into a room and instantly makes it a better place to be! This 30-pound bundle of pure joy has a go-lucky attitude that is absolutely contagious, and even her foster home's grumpy old dog can't resist joining in when Alice is ready to play. She loves everyone and approaches every single day like it is the greatest day that has ever happened. Alice knows commands like sit and come, is housetrained, and settles quickly in her crate after a brief protest. She is super smart and picks up new things fast, so her future family is going to have a blast teaching her everything she is capable of learning. She already loves going on walks, playing fetch, wrestling, racing around the yard, and chasing squirrels. She is working on her leash manners but likes to bark her commentary along the way. She's an absolute angel in the car. She does have an old injury impairing the vision in her right eye that her new family will want to monitor, but it certainly has not slowed this girl down even one tiny bit. Alice would thrive with an active family who loves long walks, hikes, and playtime, whether that means kids to romp with, a dog friend to wrestle with, or an adventurous human who wants a cheerful and devoted sidekick. She has a wonderful off switch too and is just as happy snuggling close to her person after a big day out. Truly, it is very hard to imagine anyone meeting Alice and not falling completely in love. To learn more about adopting this little ray of sunshine, text AARF at 931-260-8018 or visit www.aarf-tn.com today!  Interested in adopting? Take the first step and complete an adoption application on our website: http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-apps/ If you have questions that are not covered in the profile, visit the Pet Inquiry Form: http://aarf-tn.com/contact/pet-inquiry-form/. THIS PET IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE! We do list and adopt our pets nationwide. Typical transport cost to the Northeast is $180. Due to interstate adoption regulations, we are not able to adopt to RI and MA state residents. A.A.R.F. (All About Rescue and Fixin' Inc.) http://aarf-tn.com/ is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) no kill animal rescue organization located in the Upper Cumberland area of Tennessee. A.A.R.F. is comprised of unpaid volunteers and survives only on public donations. Thank you for thinking adoption first! Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption. April 6, 2026, 10:19 pm

Story
🐾 Meet Brownie 🐾 Brownie was surrendered due to his family facing homelessness. His dad cried saying goodbye, and it broke my heart. 💔 This sweet boy needs just a few minutes to warm up to new people, then he’s all love. 😊 However he is still very protective of his home, so I would recommend crating when guests are around. He’s 1–2 years old, 15–20 pounds, and reminds us of a small Australian Shepherd mix. He’s been great with the dogs and cats he’s met here and would love a fenced yard and a furry friend in his new home. 🐶🐱 He needs an adult home ONLY. He is neutered, updated on all shots, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, and on preventatives. 💲 Adoption fee: $250 (covers neuter, shots, microchip, HW test, prevention & more) Must remain on heartworm prevention for life. Apply at: www.fureverfurkids.com (Home check required. Application must be completed before meeting.) Please share to help Brownie find the amazing forever home he deserves. ❤️🐾

Story
Hello there this is Vella unfortunately I’m putting her up for adoption due to the Neighbors next door complaining about barking at night she tends to get out of the gate and is an outside dog she’s very sweet and friendly we tried to take care of her but it’s a handful. She would be a great pet for anyone who wants an energetic pet! She is shy to people who she doesn’t know but is an amazing dog and loves to play with kids and other dogs !

Story
Passion is on the hunt for her forever home. This cute girl is nearing 8 weeks old already , where does the time go?! Passion was dropped off at our vets off as a newborn puppy with her littermates. We were told their mom had died. We have no backround on them apart from that so we can only guess on what we think her breed mix is. Our best guess is pit x aussie mixes. We anticipate the litter to be medium sized full grown and in the 40lb range . Passion is started on vaccines, deworming and flea prevention and she will be spayed and microchipped prior to adoption as well. She has grown up around other dogs and cats and is well socialized with them. Shes a super sweet girl . Passion is more on the shy side of her littermates. We are located in Cosby Tennessee Please fill out the below application if interested in adopting Passion 🩷 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lUGf-qd2V00UYrClG8nOqg8OeDKuugX-Cesc7Hqw_oc/viewform?edit_requested=true&fbclid=IwVERDUAQ79-5leHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAwzNTA2ODU1MzE3MjgAAR5fDb4uwiCjYB1qHc2q-LA_zuyEUjc4pBrO8d2jrETEOzeI0fSIHmQT333nhA_aem_FK2vyX-nQpnrWf65ZWjTYg

Story
Meet Ribeye! He is a very sweet 3 year old Aussiedoodle. He loves to run and play fetch. He needs to go to a home with a fenced in yard and people who can take him on walks to see the world! He does have some anxious tendencies that come with his breed but it shows in the form of being nervous around strangers loud noises (he is good with thunder and fireworks oddly enough). He will come with all of his accessories (leash, bowls, harness, etc). We would like to meet in person if you’re interested in adopting him and you must have a large yard for him. Ideally he needs a home with no other dogs and children that know how to treat animals.
