Story
We rescued Sadee from a friend in a terrible home situation. She is very timid and shy at first, but she is extremely lovable. She is a little over two years old. She is very food driven. She loves toys and loves blankets. She is house trained, and crate trained, however she lacks in obedience training. When we got her she was very neglected and she was very small and looked like she hadn’t properly eaten in days. She is now very well fed, and she thinks she is a lapdog. She has had a not so easy life, but she is full of spunk and is a really good dog who deserves people that are able to give her both their time and their love.

Story
We adopted Harper from a rescue in 2020. She has pretty high anxiety, and extreme vet anxiety, which is why she is not fixed. We have a senior dog, and she is too hyper for the 2 of them to be loose in house together unfortunately. She was predominantly with our son, and slept in his room however he has left for college. She has high energy, and would do best in a single dog home, with no kids and potentially a female only home. She does well with my husband and son, and father in law but does sometimes have anxiety with new males. She is very sweet and loving but just needs more attention than we are able to provide currently. She knows basic commands, but could definitely benefit from some additional training!

Story
Electra is a ball of attitude and love! she loves to play with peoples feet and be the center of attention! she is very skittish and scared when new people are around, or when she has to go anywhere like the vet. But once she is used to her surroundings she loves to cuddle and play, she is an absolute joy with some issues here and there but with time and energy she’ll ldefinitely become better! we don’t know about kids due to her being so skittish about people, i would recommend she goes to a home that she’s the only dog but she has been with other dogs but sometimes becomes aggressive because of food or not getting enough attention! She’s sassy and will huff and puff just for attention, she loves to be held, dressed up!

COURTESY LISTINGThis dog is a courtesy listing (not in the AARF program) but we will be reviewing applications and helping the owner find the right home for ROO. Please visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-app/ to apply. Introducing Roo: Your Energetic and Affectionate Companion! Roo is a 2 1/2-year-old Mountain Cur weighing approximately 50lbs. This handsome pup is bursting with energy, always ready for an adventure. However, when he's seeking affection, he knows how to switch into a calm and loving mode. One of the most endearing qualities about Roo is his love for affection and his favorite pastime—running and doing zoomies in the yard! You'll find yourself charmed by his playful antics and infectious joy. Watching him fetch and play with toys is an absolute delight. Roo is a well-trained dog who knows commands such as sit, wait, place, and kennel. He recently completed a 30-day in-board training, demonstrating his eagerness to learn and please his human companions. If needed, his caregivers are more than willing to cover the cost of additional training to ensure a smooth transition into your home. When it comes to manners, Roo is house-trained and has excellent crate behavior. He understands the cue to kennel up and is comfortable spending time in his crate. You won't have to worry about any accidents or destructive behavior. Roo enjoys playing fetch, spending time with his favorite toys, and socializing with other dogs. His friendly nature makes him an ideal playmate for canine pals of all sizes. Although he hasn't been around cats, livestock, or many children, he may be tempted to give chase to small creatures out of playfulness. From a medical standpoint, Roo is in excellent health, with no known concerns. Roo has shown compatibility with dogs and adults; however, he may need some time to warm up to new people. Slow introductions and a gentle approach are key to helping him feel comfortable. He walks well on a leash and rides calmly in the car, making him a great companion for outings and adventures. This sweet and intelligent boy thrives in an understanding and loving home. He's eager to continue learning, and his caregivers believe he would benefit from activities like swimming, as he showed great interest and enthusiasm during his encounters with the pool. If you're seeking a loyal and fun-loving companion who will keep you active and entertained, Roo is the perfect match. Adopting Roo means gaining a friend for life who will shower you with love, energy, and affection. Ask us about Roo today!    Interested in adopting?

Story
Meet Luca who is an all white male pomsky. He is about 1.5 year old and weighs about 22 lbs. Luca came to the rescue from a farm, where he was living in a horse stall with 11 other dogs. Due to lack of socialization, he is very shy around people, but loves other dogs. Although he hasn't been playing with the resident dogs, Luca needs to have another friendly dog in his forever home to help him continue to learn how to be a dog.  Because of his flight risk, Luca requires a secure, physically fenced yard. Luca is finally beginning to learn what the good life is like.  He loves running in the grass and playing with toys.  Luca LOVES to play fetch!  He is crated during the day and even hangs out in the crate at times when he feels like it.  Luca has actually been sleeping with his human foster and cuddles close.   Although Luca is doing well with potty training.  At this time we do  know Luca does well with older children, cats are unknown  He will need a very patient adopter that understands that it will take awhile for him to adjust and warm up.  Luca is making steady progress with confidence and becoming more social every day, but he still has a ways to go. ##2056436##

Story
This dog is a courtesy listing (not in the AARF program) but we will be reviewing applications and helping the owner find the right home for BINGO. Please visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-app/ to apply. His adoption is FREE to approved home. Looking for a loyal companion? Meet Bingo! This 2-year-old mix of American Pit Bull Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog, and American Staffordshire Terrier will win your heart with his devotion and playful nature. Weighing in at 40 pounds, Bingo is a medium-sized bundle of joy who loves nothing more than to play fetch and chew on his beloved stuffed toys and Nylabones. Bingo's unique charm shines through in his quirky habits. He absolutely adores ice cubes and will eagerly run to the fridge with you for a treat. He also has a soft spot for pup cups from Starbucks. Despite being mostly deaf, Bingo is a smart cookie and responds well to hand commands like place, sit, down, and stay. He's a graduate of The Dog Wizard of Knoxville, and his training can continue with his new family. Bingo is fully potty trained and will ring bells hanging on the door to let you know when he needs to go out. He's also crate trained, making bedtime and alone time a breeze. Although he enjoys the company of his person, he can be a bit anxious around sudden movements due to his hearing loss. Bingo thrives in a one-person household where he can be the star of the show. If you're ready for a sweet, smart, and devoted companion who will bring joy and excitement into your life, Bingo is the perfect match for you. Give this lovable pup a forever home where he can truly shine!    Interested in adopting?
