Story
Inessa has LOST 2 homes due to no fault of her own. The first time she was adopted, she was the companion of an autistic child. Slept in the bed every night. Her human mom got married to a man who also had a female dog. They did not get along, so Inessa got returned to the rescue. Inessa loved her 2nd dad. Slept in the bed with him, took goofy pics together, had a dog brother. She was living the good life. However, life happens and her dad had to go to rehab. Inessa ended back at the rescue. Inessa is a great dog! House trained. Crate trained. She’s no trouble at all. She’s happy to do whatever you’re happy doing. She deserves to live out her life on a couch. She does not prefer to be around other female dogs, but may be able to have the right male doggie pal.

Story
Meet Pauletta: A Strong and Sweet Survivor Pauletta is a striking fawn and white English Bulldog pit mix with a heart as big as her muscles. At around 6 to 7 years old and weighing about 60 lbs, Pauletta is as strong as an ox—she’s got the power of a linebacker and could easily pull a grown man off his feet! Even a pinch collar doesn’t slow her down. Despite her strength, Pauletta is one of the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. She adores massages and will happily relax by your side when given some love and attention. Pauletta’s story is one of resilience. She was confiscated as part of a cruelty case when she was just about a year old, but that hasn’t dimmed her spirit. Now, she’s ready for a forever home where she can be safe and loved. Because of her strong personality, Pauletta isn’t great with other dogs. She tends to be a bit of a bully, nudging them around as if to challenge them, so she’s best suited for a home where she can be the only pet. Due to her strength and temperament, she should be exercised in a backyard rather than on the street. If you’re looking for a strong, loving companion who has overcome adversity and is ready to be your loyal sidekick, Pauletta is your girl!

Story
Meet Riddle: A Gentle Soul with a Heart of Gold Riddle is a sweet, soulful dog who deserves a second chance at a loving home. Rescued from Memphis Animal Shelter just in time, Riddle was initially misunderstood due to his scars, with shelter staff fearing he had been involved in dog fighting. But after a temperament test, it was clear that Riddle is a gentle, shy boy who prefers to keep to himself and avoid conflict. Now between 7 and 8 years old, Riddle has undergone heartworm treatment and is in good health, ready for a quiet, loving home. He’s a total sweetheart who would love nothing more than to be a lap dog. His favorite spot is the loveseat, where he sneaks a few moments of relaxation before heading to his kennel. Though shy at first when meeting new people, Riddle quickly warms up and becomes your loyal best friend. Quiet and well-behaved, Riddle spends most of his day peacefully in his kennel, only getting excited when it’s time for his meals. With his soulful eyes and gentle demeanor, he’s a dog that will melt your heart. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion who just wants to share love and cuddles, Riddle is the perfect match.

Story
Call Me Foxy Roxy If my sweet personality does not captivate you, my eyes surely will. I am a husky mix, a super duper smart one. I get along with dogs who are friendly and have good manners, although I will admit I like being the leader. I had a home but I was not happy there and I escaped the yard every chance I got. My mom was very ill and she did not have time for me. So I went looking for another home. That’s how I ended up in rescue. I promise not to run away if you love me and pay attention to me, and give me treats when I am a good dog. I am crate trained and house trained. I am 6-7 years old and weigh 50 lbs. My fur has a gorgeous shimmer and don’t you just love my baby blues? The ideal home for Roxy would have Husky experience.
