My story

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

This cute little black beauty is Molly.

Molly came into rescue after one of our southern rescuers was placing a food bowl out for a feral cat living on his property. The food was being devoured quickly..too fast for just one kitty. A trail camera was set up and showed Miss Molly coming to enjoy the food daily. A humane trap was placed and she was caught.

Molly is good with all the other dogs and loves to wrestle with them. Right now, she is a bit of a timid girl when she is inside her foster home, more with men then women. We feel small children will make her too nervous so we are recommending children 12 or older.

She will only get close enough to her foster dad to lick his hand. With women, she’s more willing to sit next to them and very excited to see them. If she doesn’t feel safe, she will run for her crate. If the door is closed and you move toward her, she will sit where she is and let you pick her up but you can tell she’d rather not be picked up. Her fear never leads to any aggression.

However, when Molly is outside, she completely comes out of her shell. When her foster dad is sitting in the yard, she will climb in his lap and loves getting petted.

When this girl is left alone, she is always crated since she has not yet learned to distinguish between doggie chew toys and household items that are within her reach....training in process.

Due to her timidness, it will be best for this girl to have a canine sibling at her furever home. Not only will she have a blast playing with them, but it will also help build her confidence while indoors.

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.
