My story

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

Foster Update - S’more’s foster mom says she’s doing so well! She is working with a trainer to teach her that humans do not play like dogs so we do not ruffhouse with human friends! She is so smart and doing great and still LOVES to play with her canine and human friends alike and walking great on a leash.

Pocket Pitty Lovers Apply! Introducing S'mores, fostering right here in New England, a spirited1-year-old pup with a heart of gold, ready to find her forever home!

Despite a challenging start, S'mores has bounced back beautifully and is now thriving in every way. S'mores is a social butterfly who adores playing with other dogs, making her the perfect match for a home with a canine companion who shares her zest for playtime. She's mastered basic commands and is making excellent progress with potty training, showing just how smart and eager she is to please.

Her adventurous spirit shines through on walks, where she's learning leash manners with enthusiasm alongside her foster sister. S'mores is a lover of all toys and cherishes her time with humans, showing endless affection and loyalty to those around her.

While S'mores enjoys her playtime, she's also a great companion for car rides, demonstrating her adaptability and calm demeanor. She's a more active dog who would thrive in a family that can match her energy and provide plenty of exercise and stimulation.

S'mores would do best in a home without children, where she can continue to blossom and bring joy to her adopters' lives.

If you're looking for a loving, playful companion who has conquered adversity with resilience and grace, S'mores might just be the perfect addition to your family.

Where Your Purchase Helps Support Rescue!

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.
