My story

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

Simba is a 6-month-old, 50-pound bundle of energy and love, ready to find his forever home! With one striking blue eye and a gentle demeanor, this handsome boy has a big heart to match his growing size. He’s a great mix of playful and snuggly—perfect for anyone looking for a loving, loyal companion.

Simba is currently in a foster home where he’s been showing off his friendly personality. He lives with 7 other dogs ranging from 30lbs and up. He’s great with younger, playful dogs and has a lot of energy to burn. Though he can be a bit too much for older dogs at times, he’s learning boundaries and responds well when corrected. While he’s not a fan of the crate yet, Simba is housebroken and is doing well with his leash training. He’s smart and will thrive with continued training.

This sweet boy loves being around people, especially kids! His foster family includes an 8-year-old girl, and Simba has been so gentle and loving with her. He’s also fantastic in the car—he recently laid in his young foster sister’s lap during a long drive.

Simba does have some anxiety about being left alone or separated from his people. He loves to be wherever you are and will do his best to stick close. He may try to jump gates or knock them over if he feels left out, but with the right guidance and a little patience, he’s learning to adjust.

He would do best in a home with experienced husky owners or someone who understands the importance of ongoing training. Simba will be a big, fun-loving boy, and in return for your care and training, he’ll reward you with endless loyalty and joy.

If you’re looking for a fun, energetic, and loving companion, Simba might be your perfect match!

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.
