Meet Willamina—A gentle soul with a playful spirit. Even though she’s super chill most of the time, she absolutely loves a good play session with her favorite stuffies, tossing them around with boundless energy. When she gets super excited, she even hops around like a bunny-a joy to watch! Look how adorable: https://youtube.com/shorts/MNgxdy1UO_c?si=f601RImcSUAavmth
Willamina’s journey is truly inspirational. Found as a stray in Mississippi, she was once extremely underweight and understandably wary of people. Thanks to the abundant TLC from her southern foster, she has made an incredible transformation—now healthy, happy, and ready to become your lifelong sweet companion.
This gal is a true gem for any home. She’s been fantastic with a 10-year-old child, and her foster is confident that her calm nature will make her a perfect fit for families of any age. Not only does she thrive in the company of humans, but she also enjoys playing and socializing with other dogs. Here she is with her foster canine sibling, so cute: https://youtube.com/shorts/pOFEi-qwjNQ?si=sOOULR-GE37PSTbt
This sweet pup is crate trained and a champ on the leash, making walks a breeze. She’s also a fan of car rides, so if you’re looking for a road trip buddy, she’s your girl! Willa is currently working on housetraining, but she’s making great strides and is on her way to being fully housebroken.
Just look at this precious girl in motion: https://youtube.com/shorts/6KZAK46HkpI?si=Qf3Mhbe6oCD_1CI_
Willamina has come such a long way and is ready for a forever home where she can be loved the way she deserves. Is it yours???

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.
