Story
ONLY CALL/TEXT US AT 610-787-2353 WITH YOUR LOCATION NAME ETC. OR EMAIL US AT dawnleemcmahon@gmail.com TO RECEIVE AN ADOPTION APPLICATION (which is required). FREE TO A LOVING HOME. HARTSVILLE, TENN - ZEKE - 8 month old purebred male German Shepherd (UTD/neuter scheduled 03-04-25) Needs a new loving home. Still a lot of puppy, but so smart and loves to learn. Zeke was abandoned in a home when folks moved out a few weeks ago (UG!!!!!). Anyway, sheriff called us and asked if we could save him. He was too sweet to go to the shelter and just be adopted out to just anyone. Zeke is thriving at the farm. So very very smart. Gets along with all the saints and doodles and even the cats at the farm. No aggression, no stranger danger, no food or toy aggression etc. He is just happy to be out of the lonely abandoned shitty house. side note: If police would prosecute these evil heartless humans, maybe stuff like this would stop. There are laws on the books for a reason. So frustrating. We are getting him neutered March 4 and he will be ready for is new loving qualified experience new home. We got him all his necessary shots and dewormed. No fleas. Zeke would thrive in a home that loves to hike/walk and has the time and energy to invest in his continued love of training/learning. A female large breed dog would be an ideal companion, but again, he does get along with all the dogs (male/female big and small). Zeke is free to a family that wants a furry new family member.

Story
IDGSR Welcomes SHASTA into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hey Y'all! My name is Shasta and I'm a 5-6yr old female German Shepherd. I am located near Greeneville TN and will be available for transport. Quick Facts: Age - 5-6yr old Home - ideally a home with a fenced in yard, no apartment or condo Kids - Would do well with kids (12+) Dogs - Good with large males, no females or small dogs Cats - NO cats Training - Needs standard obedience training 1. I had a pretty awful upbringing, my foster mom can fill you in on my backstory. Despite a bad start to life, I have a lot of love to give. 2. I would love to have a fenced in yard to explore in and a comfy bed to rest on. I don't require much because I've never had anything nice, if you can give me a good life, I will be forever grateful. 3. I would do best as either an only dog or with a confident male dog. I must be the only female dog in the home. It's also best that I avoid homes with small dogs and cats. 4. I love to jog in the backyard, check out what's going on, and have the occasional play time with one of the male foster dogs. 5. I've never spent a holiday with a loving person or family, I heard it's one of the most special times of the year. I hope you have a place in your heart & on your couch for a middle aged gal like me!
