I am going to cut to the chase: I find it's well past time for me to find my forever family. I mean, look at me??? Hello?! I am ADORABLE! The folks at the AHHS agree. Just ask the families that have adopted my siblings what amazing pups we are. I'm "good boy" material, promise! I won't ask for much..just some treats, snuggles, play time, and LOVE!  To meet me, it's rather simple. I'm hanging out at the Appalachian Highlands Humane Society located at 2101 W. Walnut Street, Johnson City, TN 37604. This means that you can pop in any afternoon this week and let the staff know you'd like to meet me. You've really got to see me for yourself as pics don't do my cuteness justice.  Email Halee@ahhumanesociety.org with questions, comments, or concerns and submit your adoption application at ahhumanesociety.org/dog-adoption-application/.    Please note that this is a mixed breed puppy.  There is no guarantee on breed or adult size.  This puppy is in a foster home.  Contact Halee for more information halee@ahhumanesociety.org You may complete an application at https://ahhumanesociety.org/dog-adoption-application/February 25, 2025, 10:41 am

I am putting my best paw forward in hopes that you'll adopt me.  I'm a simple boy; I play, eat, potty, sleep, repeat. I might do a little heart stealin' every now and then, too! I've got an awesome personality (and I'm not just saying that!!!). I would be a puppy suited for many scenarios. I could be a family dog that would be your child's best friend, or if you're a single adult or couple without children I'd also be content with that. I would even love to join some empty nesters! Honestly, I just want to love someone and be loved in return. I don't think that's too much to ask for, do you??  Please note that this is a mixed breed puppy.  There is no guarantee on breed or adult size.  This puppy is in a foster home.  Contact Halee for more information halee@ahhumanesociety.org You may complete an application at https://ahhumanesociety.org/dog-adoption-application/March 6, 2025, 3:14 pm

Story
Carlton is ready to find his forever person. This sweet pup (12 - 13 years old) was adopted in 2021 by a loving man who is now, unfortunately, physically unable to care for him properly. They miss each other deeply. Carlton is the literal definition of a couch potato. His only purpose is to admire his human, play tug of war, and chase cats (no cats please). Carlton is great with people and other dogs. He does have some trepidation about my tiny seniors, but gives them the right of way in an apparent show of respect. He is neutered and UTD, house broken, and dog gone adorable. In November he had a needle aspiration biopsy for a lump on his chest. It was determined that it was a lipoma (fatty benign tumor). He's absolutely fine. Did I mention he's a couch potato? If you would like to give this sweet senior boy a loving home for his golden years, please fill out our application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.

Story
Ella being fostered in Huntsville, AL but is available for transport to an approved adopter. The approved adopter will be responsible for the costs of transport. Ella is an almost 3 years old border collie/shih tzu mix. She is around 45 pounds. Unfortunately, her owners are not able to give her and her sister Remy the time that they need. Ella is a loving and sweet girl. She is shy when first meeting new people and would either do best being adopted with her sister or with a family that has another confident dog. Ella is an energetic dog and will need an active family. She does good with children but has knocked over their young kids out of excitement, so for the safety of children we think she would do best with older kids. If you are interested in adopting Ella, please fill out an application on our website forrescue.net. She is being fostered in Huntsville, AL.

Story
Remy being fostered in Huntsville, AL but is available for transport to an approved adopter. The approved adopter will be responsible for the costs of transport. Remy is a 2.5 year old female border collie/shih tzu mix. She is around 50 pounds. Unfortunately, her owners do not have the time for her and her sister Ella anymore and know that they deserve better. Remy is an energetic and active dog. She has the silly and goofy personality of the border collie. She is a very smart dog and she is looking for a home that will take advantage of her intelligence. Ella never meets a stranger. She is a very friendly dog and loves everyone. Her favorite things to do include playing fetch, going for walks and being the center of attention. She would do best in a home with her sister or with another active and playful dog. She currently lives with 2 young children and does good with them but has accidently knocked them over so we are suggesting older children for her. If you are interested in adopting Remy, please fill out an application on our website forrescue.net. She is being fostered in Huntsville, AL.

Poor Lucia can make a great bond with some people. However, she can be aggressive at times. She is so loving with the ones she likes. However, to many people she is aggressive. She likes to play and take walks. With those she bonds with she is super affectionate. She loves to lick and curl up with you. She has been the longest dog we have had at our shelter.

Aurora came to us on one of the coldest, snowiest days of the year. Her previous owners informed us that she lived outside on a chain her whole life. The pictures we received of her standing in the snow were enough for us; we knew this girl deserved more! Since Aurora joined the AHHS, we have discovered what a loving, happy dog this is! She is joyful and friendly to every dog, cat, and human that crosses her path. Yes, she's considered a senior, but don't let that fool you! She's got quite a lot of energy and LOVES playing outdoors! She would make someone the best hiking buddy ever. Aurora deserves a home in which she can live out the rest of her years comfortably and, most importantly, indoors! If you feel that Aurora might be a good addition to your family, do not hesitate to apply at ahhumanesociety.org/dog-adoption-application/ or email Halee@ahhumanesociety.org with any questions!March 7, 2025, 2:49 pm

Story
Atlas is just over a year old, born completely deaf! He's up to date on all shots and was just neutered a couple months ago. He is crate trained and knows "sit" and "come here" in ASL. He has lived with cats and dogs (and does currently) and has had no issues. We love Atlas, but unfortunately need to rehome him because we discovered that our cat is absolutely terrified of larger dogs. We tried to make it work, but our animals just aren't compatible. We feel awful, because Atlas hasn't done anything to make the cat scared of him. He NEEDS someone who has the time, money, and energy to train a deaf dog. The only issue we've had with him is that he is aggressive towards the vet. No one else at the vet's office, never other animals, just specifically the vet themself. He also sometimes freaks out if a stranger surprises him, due to being deaf. He comes with his vet paperwork, a heavy duty leash/harness, collar, crate, etc.
