My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rosa is the matriarch of the chicken-themed litter. All 8 of her babies are loving life in their Forever homes, and now it's Rosa's turn to find her forever family.

Rosa came to us heartworm positive, but she has since completed her treatment! We do think she would do best in an adult only home or one with older kids. Rosa was a terrific mom to her own puppies, but we think she's happy to be done with the "little ones" phase of her life. She has a lot of energy, but prefers walks or (maybe) jogging to "battle type" playing!

In her foster home, Rosa has blossomed. Here's what her foster has to say about her:

Very easy-going, leash trained, crate and house trained. She gets along well with other dogs and enjoys spending time outdoors, especially lounging in the grass. She's a true sweetheart. She is NOT a fan of rough play (dogs or humans) and will air snap to correct the other party, but a calmer, less rough-and-tumble home would love having this special girl around!

Rosa is ready to bring her love and sweetness to a forever home. Could yours be the one she's been waiting for? Don't miss out on the chance to make Rosa a cherished member of your family.

More about this rescue

PAWS is comprised of a small group of volunteers from New England and Tennessee trying to reduce the euthanization rate (previously 90%) at the Tipton County Animal Control shelter in Brighton, Tennessee. This shelter is forced to euthanize thousands of animals each year due to irresponsible pet owners that do not spay/ neuter their dogs in the area. Millions of dogs in America are euthanized each year due to lack of space and lack of funding to try and find them better homes.

Our mission is to save as many animals as possible, removing them from the shelter, having their veterinary needs met prior to traveling and then finding them loving homes throughout New England. We do this only with the assistance of many people volunteering their time by going to the shelter, transporting the dogs to the vet, fostering dogs who need special care, and arranging for their new and happy homes in this area. Most importantly, we cannot do any of this without those people willing to open their homes and hearts to these lovely creatures.
