Story
Meet Shautae!  This shortstack of sweetness wants your help finding a forever family. Shautae, we we affectionately call Taetae and Shorty, is an absolutely adorable mixed breed with an estimated birthday of 09/01/2020. There has been some debate amoung our staff about what breed she is, but we have settled on a Pointer-Basset hound mix, weighing in aroudn 45lbs. What Shorty lack in height, she more than makes up for in her loving personality. Shorty makes friends as easy as pie, and you'd be hard pressed to find someone who wasn't charmed by her tiny little legs. If you were to ask our staff about some of Taetae's favorite things, they would probably tell you how much she loves to lounge in the sun! This beautiful girl will take every chance she can get to lay out on one of her beds in the sunshine and catch some rays. Shautae also loves the company of other dogs, but as always we require a meet and greet if you already have any at home. She is suited to a home without cats. Shautae does great with kids around 10yr and up, but younger kids tend to stress her out, so a home without little ones is best.    Interested? Call us at 615-446-7387 ##2172428##

Story
It’s been said that “good things come in small packages,” and we couldn’t agree more! Our favorite 20lb beagle, Vivienne is officially ready to find her forever family! Vivienne is about 8 years old and is absolutely precious. Don’t let the number 8 fool you, she still has plenty of energy and life left! Vivi loves every human , even the tiny ones. She currently lives with a 2 year old human foster, and two big dogs, who she gets along great with! Vivi is house-trained and kennel-trained, she will go in on command, and sleep through the night without a peep- okay well maybe some snores. She does have some separation anxiety but her fosters have been working on that, and Vivi has made amazing progress. Viv loves to spend her days roaming the backyard, and protecting you from squirrels. Because she’s a hound and her nose has a lot of work to do, she would do best with a secure fence. She enjoys long naps on the couch and walks to the fridge. The ideal home for this sweet girl would be with someone who is patient and understanding. We aren’t sure what Vivi went through, but she didn’t have many kind hands petting her, so she can be nervous at first. Vivi would do best with another dog to help her continue to build her confidence.

Story
Maybelle is a teeny 17lb Beagle who is extremely anxious and fearful of humans but with a couple of meet & greets or so she can warm but. The family that moved forward with Maybelle will need to know that she is extremely shy but we have a fairly failsafe plan to help her integrate in to a household as we did it very successfully with her fosters and she is very settled in there now.  Maybelle is exit seeking and just take a look back on our socials towards February/March and you will see that she was one that was on the run all over Nashville for about 2 1/2 weeks. So she is a very sweet but timid girl that will just need lots of patience, time, and routine, to settle in to her new home. And an AirTag lol. Maybelle is not a dog that we would trust to be running around off leash, and keeping her leashed will be a very important part of this process and cannot be strayed from. She is VERY snuggly and once she gets to know you she will cuddle and snuggle you and love on you and is such a sweet girl. She has just obviously been through a lot poor girl and just needs regular love and routine to settle in. We also think she would do great with another dog in the household as long as we do the required meet & greet. She does not seem to do well with children in the home.January 7, 2026, 4:33 pm
