My story

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

Tootsie is an adorable little girl, appx 4 months old. She currently weighs 12 lbs. We think she is a Chiweenie mix. Tootsie was found wandering alone and brought to our local shelter. She is now in a foster home awaiting her forever family.

Tootsie is a very happy, energetic, and playful puppy! She loves to run and run outside so a fenced yard is a must to keep her safe and happy. She is very athletic and can jump pretty high for her size! She has a very fun and entertaining personality. After she is finished playing she loves to snuggle and nap. She will stay in a crate quietly when needed. She is not completely potty trained, but is taken outside to potty often and is learning very quickly. She loves to play with her toys and enjoys chewy bones too.

There are other dogs in her foster home and she enjoys playing with them and snuggling with them. Tootsie is good with cats as long as they don't mind her playful puppy vibe.

Tootsie would love an active home with people that will spend time with her and enjoy her playful ways but will also enjoy sitting and snuggling with her.

Additional adoption info

Who says you can't buy love? Our adoption rates say different. Our adoption fee covers the pet's spay/neuter, vaccinations, heart worm testing, and worming. We require interested parties to complete our adoption application with veterinarian and personal references. If approved we will work with you to schedule a meeting with the pet, and if you decide to adopt, our contract is the last step. We do not adopt to homes with intact pets or to people under 21 years of age.

Go meet their pets

All our adoptable pets are in foster homes where we socialize them with people and other animals. Along with adoption events we are an agency partner with the PetSmart store in Spring Hill, TN, in The Crossings shopping center as well as PetSense in Columbia, TN. Our cats can be seen during store hours in the Cat Adoption Room. Due to Covid, store times vary so please contact the store prior to your visit to see what we have available. If you are interested in meeting one of our furbabies, simply contact us, and we will work with you to schedule a meeting. Since we are an all-volunteer rescue, please be patient, as it may take up to 72 hours for a response. Thank you!

More about this rescue

We believe that pets are family members who fill our lives with joy and meaning. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue group that strives to make a difference in the lives of animals within our rural community in south central Tennessee. Through our Spay/Neuter Program for Giles County residents we know that the result will be a huge reduction in the amount of unwanted cats and dogs in our County.

Rescues exist because of the overpopulation of cats and dogs. About 2.4 million healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are put down in U.S. shelters each year. Often these animals are the offspring of cherished family pets. Spay/Neuter is a proven way to reduce pet overpopulation, ensuring that every pet has a family to love them.

The Giles County Humane Association lends a voice to those animals who cannot speak for themselves.
