Story
The humans call me Bolin. I would best describe myself as 75 pounds of cuddle and snooze who’s a sucker for stuffed toys and soft blankets to curl up on. I’m super cute in my frog pose on the ground with my front paws sticking out in opposite directions. I’m also very human-friendly! It doesn’t matter if it’s old friends or brand-new friends, I just trot up to say hello and get petted. One of my nicknames in the rescue is a slug, I guess that means I’m slow-moving and chill. I have been working on weight loss and have picked up the pace quite a bit since dropping some pounds. My ideal home would be a quiet chill place, with humans who don’t thrive on adventure but don’t mind multiple dog beds throughout their home. Give me a soft place to rest my head and I’m happy as a clam….or slug. If you’re in need of a BFF for some quality cuddles and tons of love, send in your adoption application today!

Story
River here! I know the first thing you notice is amazing…smile? Nope its my underbite! If you could win an award for one I imagine I would have a trophy! I’m a friendly guy who loves other dogs and people! I go to daycare and love playing with other pups while I’m there. My foster parents say one of the funniest things I do is toss my toys in the air and I get confused when they don’t land right next to me. I’m kind a a goofy guy. Speaking of playing I also dog fetch and love playing with my dog toys. I’m not just all about romping around though. I’m a great one to cuddle with and really enjoy Netflix nights on the couch I live with a feline friend and we get along great. I have also met children and I was very appropriate and sweet around them. I’m great in my crate and I have house training down! If you are looking for a fun guy who lives to meet new people, I’m your guy!

Story
Hi there, my name is Lucy and I’m happy to meet you. I absolutely love dogs and I make fast friends with both pups and people. Tug of war and fetch are some of my favorite pastimes next to snuggling. I’ve been told that I’m a very friendly, approachable and confident lady. I do great on leash walks, I’m crate trained and house trained too. I know sit, come here, go potty and I’m building even more skills! I can’t wait to meet my forever family- could that be you? Please reach out asap to meet me.

Story
Hi! I’m Franklin and I love toys! I can’t believe I have a bunch to play with, I really like to take them out of my toy box one at a time. I entertain myself just fine this way but I would love a dog sibling to teach me how to play. I have the youthful energy of any young pup but I like to snuggle equally as much. I just love to cuddle up next to my person and even on their laps if they let me, but no pressure. I’m both curious and timid when meeting new people, so I’m working on my confidence. I’m also working on leash walking and I can even catch a ball in my mouth! Can you believe that?! I’m pretty proud of that move. I am also crate trained and house trained-yahoo!! I’d love to meet you. P.S. I’ve been told I have super soft velveteen ears.

Story
I saved cole from Memphis animal services because he was about to be euthanized. I already have other animals and i just cant afford another dog, nor do i have the time to properly care for him anymore. Cole is an amazing dog, he is great with big and small dogs, as well as cats. He is off leash trained and knows sit and down. He loves to dances for food and loves to be loved on. Cole did come from a shelter very fearful so he would need a home that knows how to deal with scared dogs. Once he gets used to you he is your best friend and is always by your side wanting to play.

Story
We found Bruno wandering near a library in Cordova, TN. His skin was in terrible condition and we noticed his legs were deformed. His legs are getting stronger, his skin condition is resolved, he has been neutered, and is also up to date on shots. He is a sweet dog, good with my eight-year-old and our cats. Our little dogs will get in his cage and bark at him and that bothers him. But as long as they are playing in the yard, he is fine.
