Story
Meet Sasha, Sasha was a rescue from under a house in Hartsville Tn. She had been roaming the streets and being fed by multiple people until she decided to have her 8 puppies under a porch. Sasha was one of the lucky ones and was taken into foster and was a wonderful mother. She was very cautious in the beginning protecting her babies. Sasha loves to play but would do best in a home where the other dogs are not overpowering to her. She will let the other dog know when she has had enough. She likes to take walks and does well on a leash. She loves her toys and loves to eat. Sasha would be best with older children. She might be a little shy at first but warms up quickly. She loves to get in your lap and just be loved on. If you are a looking for a companion to walk with and just hang out with meet Sasha. I have a lot of video and would be glad to send it so you can see her. She seems to be more comfortable with women but is fine with the foster’s husband but it took a little bit. Sasha is up to date on vaccines, heart worm negative and on preventions for heart worm and flea and tick and is micro chipped. She is spayed and approximately 50 lbs and 3 years old. Sasha is currently located in Tennessee and the adoption fee is $150. Transportation may be available to out of state adopters for an additional cost depending on the area. The first step in our process is submitting the application. We are happy to set up a meet and greet once an application has been approved. If you would like to adopt Sasha please fill out our online adoption application at http://safehaventn.com/ .

Story
ADOPTION FEE REDUCED with APPROVED APPLICATION. www.safehaventn.com Banjo is a handsome 4-year-old fellow who found himself on death row. Thanks to a foster we were able to pull him and get him safe. He is heartworm negative, neutered, micro chipped and dog friendly. Cats unknown. He is about 55 lbs. We will require a physically 6' fenced yard. He likes toys and acts like a puppy at times. He would be best in a home with older children (12+) because he is still working on some manners and may be a little much for smaller children. He is a sweet boy just looking for a family to call his own. Please give this guy a chance, he won't disappoint you! If you think you can be that family for Banjo, please fill out our adoption application on our website at www.safehaventn.com . We are happy to set up a meet and greet for the approved application.

Story
ADOPTION FEE WAIVED with APPROVED APPLICATION. www.safehaventn.com Where do I start with Mr. Frankie Hudson? Ok he is super cute and that face will get you every time, trust me! If you are a one dog only type of family who wants a affectionate little dynamo who will bring you laughter and joy, this is your guy! Frankie is in an indoor / outdoor kennel and is potty trained with the doggy door to go in and out. He LOVES toys. Have no idea what his mix is, if I had to guess I would say some frenchie and pocket pittie .. but that is pure speculation. I can tell you he is a velcro dog and will literally be underfoot because he loves just that unconditionally. We do require a physically fenced yard. He is about 35-*40 lbs and sturdy. Frankie would do best currently as the only dog. He is not dog aggressive by any means, but has a little quirk that we are working on that other dogs may not enjoy on the daily, so we would feel most comfortable as placing him as the only dog in the home. I promise you this dog has so much love to give the right family. He is neutered, heartworm negative, current on shots and preventions. If you think you can be that family for Frankie Hudson, please fill out our adoption application on our website at www.safehaventn.com . We are happy to set up a meet and greet for the approved application. His adoption fee is waived and he is being fostered in Cookeville, TN. Out of state adoptions are considered on a case by case basis depending on the dog.

Liberty

Hound (Unknown Type) Mutt

Female, 1 yr 7 mos
Cookeville, TN
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Liberty is a sweet and fun girl. She is current on vaccinations, spayed and preventions. She loves having your attention, so a home with some older kids who want a dog to play with would be right up her alley. We are guessing she will be medium when full grown, she is all legs and about 35 lbs and growing. She does good with other dogs, at times likes her space when she chooses and is clear about that, so a one dog family would also be ideal for her. She is potty trained and uses a doggy door. If you think you are the right family for Liberty, please fill out the adoption application that is on our website www.safehaventn.com. This pup is located in Cookeville, TN. Her adoption fee is $150.00.
