Rescue FAQs

We are a very small, independent rescue. Our goal is to save as many as we can and provide them with medical and behavioral help. All dogs will come fixed, shots, chipped and on all preventions. We also teach basic obedience while the pet is with us, and once they're adopted, if needed.
We rescue in Tennessee and Texas states, but adopt anywhere in the US and Canada to an approved adopter.

    Please fill out an application with breed, age, size, temperment, enegery level, etc of the dog/cat you're looking for.
