My story

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

Meet the Girl Scout Cookie Family! Mama Samoa and girls, DoSiDo and ThinMint!!!

Mama Samoa has stolen hearts wherever she goes.
This girl stole the shelter teams' heart so much, one of the staff members offered to foster her and that is why she has this amazing chance to now find a forever family she so much deserves!!!

She was an amazing momma to her babies and although not all of them made it as they were born quite sick; mama showed them nothing but love from day one and did all she could to help them.

This adorable 2.5-year-old terrier mix is ready to be a spoiled pup with a family that chooses to love her forever.

Samoa is being fostered with children, and dogs and is a gem with all!

Just look at her sweet smile and bright light shining in her pictures. I think she already knows she will only know love from now on.

She is 45 pounds of sweetness and is a good baby who loves people and wants to please.
It’s definitely her time to experience what it’s like to be a happy go lucky loved canine and she sure has a lot of puppy left in her.

Apply fast for the sweet soul, she is a keeper and so ready for someone’s forever heart!

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.
