Story
Hi! I`m Daisy Mae and I am ready to play! I have energy for miles and I love to sing! I like to follow my nose to adventure, some people call it trouble, but they aren`t any fun. My perfect home would have some toys, and lots of playtime, and maybe go on hikes with me, and have tons of love and cuddles! I'm not a fan of cats, but I love playing with my other dog friends. I'm gentle with humans, but need help learning leash manners. I haven't spent much time in the house, but could easily learn!

Story
My name is Duck and I am full of spunk! I came to my current home after I was dumped by the Duck River in Columbia, Tennessee. I can be slow to warm-up to people, but once I trust you, I will love you forever. I am a good protector and guard dog and I will always let you know when someone strange comes to our house. I like to roam around during the day and explore. At night, I like plenty of love and to come inside and snuggle by you. I would love to come visit you and see if we get along!

Story
My name is Duke and I have quite the story to tell! I was once running at large all around west Tennessee. I was on my own for so long that my hair went away and I got real skinny. I wasn't in good shape, but someone found me and took me to the shelter! I was quickly taken by a rescue so I could get healthy! I came to my current home in pretty rough shape, but I got so much love and affection that I started looking like a beautiful Redbone again! I was very hungry all the time and I'm still a hungry boy, but I know that I get food every day now! Since coming to my new home, I've gained a lot of weight and am getting healthy! I get medicated baths a few times a week and love snacks throughout the day. I'm excited to show-off new pictures as I get healthier-and-healthier! I am a very nice boy and love getting attention and pets. I am a hound and can be kind of loud at times, but that's just my personality. I would love to find my forever home one day! I would love to meet you and your family!

Story
Everyone meet Wrangler! Wrangler is available for adoption through Maury County Animal Services! He wasn't a big fan of the kennel, so he is being fostered by Hound Dog Holler and enjoying time running around and playing with friends! If you want the houndiest of hounds, Wrangler is the guy for you! He can be sweet and loving, but can also raise cane and hoot-and-holler. We're working on putting some more weight on the fella, but he's an energetic guy and loves to run. He'd be a great addition to anyone with some space and a fence!

Story
Meet Zelly! Zelly really has quite the story. He came to Hound Dog Holler from Memphis Animal Services and needed help quick. He had skull fractures from being beaten with a shovel. Although this was a sad part of Zelly's life, everything is looking up for him now! He's been at the farm since early May and is enjoying life. Trusting people has taken some time, but he's getting better at it. He does well with other dogs too once he gets to know them. Zelly was born for the farm life. He wants to work with you, hop in the truck, and help you with your chores. He does well around livestock too. If you're interested in Zelly, please reach out and give him the next chapter that he deserves.

Story
Pedro joined the farm gang in spring of 2023. He was found in the woods in rural Giles County. He was hungry and in need of some help. Since joining us at the farm, Pedro has gained weight, he's been neutered, and continues to learn around humans. He's excellent with other dogs. Pedro can be a little rambunctious, but he's a sweetheart!
