Story
A few years ago, this sweet girl was found dumped along the fence of our rescue! She was skin and bones and needed immediate help, so we named her MayDay. Our best guess is she around 6 or 7 years old and a Great Dane/ Staffshire terrier mix. She is very gentle, loves people, and really enjoys car rides. Mayday gets along with males, but is not very playful with other dogs. She would do best as the only fur baby in the home. Since she has been a kennel dog her whole life, MayDay is not pot trained so she will need a family who understands that. This dear girl would love a chance to live out her days in the comfort of a home with a family who will love her! If you want to give MayDay that chance, find us at https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/ to fill out an application or on facebook (tails of the forgotten paws)

Story
Meet Misty! She's a smart lady who is smart as a whip! She's crate trained, mastered many commands (sit, down, off, mat, enough, go to your room, here, all done- more than most kids :). She loves to run, play fetch and be wherever you are! She's a year and a half old, and was lucky enough to have professional training donated to help her find her forever home. Whoever adopts her will receive at least one free hand off session from her trainer to help her transition go perfectly! Her ideal family would be somewhat active (she needs to run around a yard at least a few times per day). She gets along well with other dogs, but calmer dogs are best. Misty loves to play, but she can get very excited if the other dog is too energetic! She would do well with older children. Younger children and cats would require a lot of supervision. Her trainer thinks she would be a great agility dog, but she is smart enough to do anything you want to train her to do! She will require some active parenting to teach her the rules of your house, because she is so smart, she may try to make her own activities if nothing fun is provided! She's potty trained now (we had some overnight accidents until she started going in her crate at night). She's a great dog with a good head on her shoulders, and she wants to know if you are the one for her! $200 In State Adoption Fee (in Texas) $400 Out of State Fee (includes Transportation to your area) $50 Temporary fuel surcharge.

LOCAL TN ADOPTION ONLY.Video here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1ZKqnaG9dD/Mr Scooby His life has been one of text book tragedy in my opinionWe’ve done our best to make his life comfortable in rescue but it is a life inside an intake facility.Five years of teaching him that it isn’t cool the crawl all over a human and try to kiss their face with an open mouth and over sized hugs.His love was so much that it was almost like an aggressive love me situation.Now i have concluded he is and has been reformed.He’s a happy gentleman with that calm Dane state of mind It makes me sad knowing he’s been in rescue for five years He is so loving and so eager to just have a chance at a normal life.If you are looking at a Dane for adoption you already should know how kind and gentle they are.LOCAL ADOPTION ONLY IN TN.The Adoption Fee Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea, Tick and Heartworm Treatment and Prevention, and Sheltering.

Story
Tina, Tina Turner, Tina Fey… the list goes on. Her foster dad started calling her TT, and now it’s basically her stage name. TT arrived with her “little big brother” Odin. Where they came from? Who knows—but it wasn’t exactly luxurious. Now, she’s a connoisseur of the finer things in life, and by that, we mean literally every stuffy she can get her paws on… especially Lamb-chomps. Her foster parents aren’t home all day, so she’s mastered the art of being solo—totally confident handling a regular workday on her own. When it comes to potty training, she’s outpacing her brother… but don’t tell him, he’s easily offended. There’s still some training left, but consistency, treats, and maybe a friend to lead the way could be… you know, pretty cool for her. Crate life? She’s got it down—and unlike most puppies, she doesn’t need her kennel covered to finally settle the heck down. She’s not high-maintenance with a yard, but a bit of minor chaos outside or someone chill to guide her through loud noises (she’s getting there!) would be ideal. She’s fine flying solo, but a dog buddy would make her day. No buddy? No problem—she just needs someone ready to help her keep leveling up her confidence and play skills. Play dates are requested. Interested in making this soon-to-be big girl your companion? Apply directly—we’d love to see if you two vibe, because finding the right match is kind of important, ya know. TT is ready to roll—anywhere within about three hours of Chicago works for her. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations (that's important), on flea, tick, and heart worm prevention and of course microchipped.
