My story

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

Meet Bragg, the ultimate companion for an active and loving home!

Bragg is a handsome boy with a sweet and gentle nature that wins hearts wherever he goes.
This eager-to-please pup is incredibly obedient and well-mannered, making him a joy to have around.

Bragg has lots of energy for outdoor adventures and playtime but also loves nothing more than curling up on the couch for some quality cuddle time with his favorite person.

This guy gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He thrives in an active household—whether it’s a family that enjoys hiking and outdoor fun or an individual who loves exploring nature.

Bragg has quickly shown his intelligence: he learned his name in just two days and mastered going potty outside by day three!

He’s comfortable with crate time (though it’s not his favorite) and will settle in obediently when needed. Bragg has been left alone for short periods without causing any trouble, and he does not show signs of separation anxiety. He’s also a great travel buddy, happily hopping in the car for a ride.

If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and affectionate dog who will thrive in an active environment, Bragg might be the perfect match to complete your family.

Check out a couple of videos of this boy, snuggling and playing:

ATTENTION PUPPY ADOPTERS:  You must attend training/behavior classes with your new dog unless you are experienced dog owners and your adoption coordinator is comfortable with your experience.  This requirement is for the benefit of you and your puppy, so if you experience behavior issues, you have a point of contact.  

PLEASE—Think long and hard before adopting a puppy. Consider the lifestyle change this puppy will come with. He cannot be crated for more than 3-4 hours at a time until he's older. Puppy-proofing your home will be necessary. Puppies scratch and nip, so if you have small children, can they handle this? Training will be so important in this puppy's life. Do you have the time?

Please consider purchasing this book before adopting.  Perfect Puppy in 7 Days - How to Start Your Puppy Off Right, Sophia Yin, DVM - it is an amazing book that we recommend very highly and have had amazing feedback on.

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.
