Story
Clover is very sweet, she is almost 2 years old and about 30lbs. She lived in Texas for her first 1.5 years and then hitched a ride with 30 other pups to Illinois to find a furever home. Clover is quiet, has only barked a few times but she was mostly following along with her loud foster brother. Clover likes to get belly scratches and she will show you how much she loves you by licking you. Clover is very smart and got the hang of the potty schedule in a few days. She occasionally has let herself out too by opening the screen door of the sliding glass window. She has run out to an unfenced grassy area but never goes very far. She doesn't like loud noises it scares her, but she has definitely gained a lot of confidence in the first couple weeks she was in her foster home. She gets really energetic when she goes outside and jumps around. Clover does well in a crate and also likes to take naps on the couch. Clover was not very comfortable with taking a bath using the shower head but if you use a cup and pour water on her she felt better and didn't try jumping out of the bathtub anymore. She also got very nervous when foster mom turned on the hose to water the plants. She loves going outside and tries to jump right out as soon as the door opens, she is learning to wait for the door to open and not try to bust through. She has visited the dog park and was very playful and made new friends quickly. Clover is very fast and slides around like a baseball player sliding into home plate, she also rolls around very quickly to fake out her friends that are chasing her. She also does a cute army type crawl. When Clover learned where foster mom was hiding the treats, she opened up the door and took the bag out, did I mention how smart she is. When she was told not to sneak out treats, she hasn't done it again. Clover lives with 2 kids ages 11 and 13 and 70 lb foster brother. She likes to jump on foster brother and get him to play. She has slowly learned how to play tug-o-war with foster brother, but mostly likes to run around and wear foster brother out.

Story
Meet Pecan Brittle (aka Piper)! 🐾 This sweet and confident 5-month-old girl is ready to find her forever family! Weighing 25 pounds, with long legs and floppy ears, Piper is a charming bundle of energy and love. Her foster family has been calling her Piper, but she also answers to Pecan Brittle—and she’s as sweet as her name suggests! Piper adores wrestling with her foster brother and would thrive in a home with other playful dog friends or a high-energy family to keep her busy. At the end of a fun-filled day, she’s all about snuggling up on the couch for some quality cuddle time. You might even catch her dreaming—she’s a heavy sleeper with active dreams that’ll make you smile! Though she hasn’t been around children yet, Piper’s friendly demeanor suggests she’d be great with kids. She’s a pro at settling in her crate, whether for car rides or quiet time, and she’s making amazing progress with potty training. Outdoors, Piper’s playful spirit shines as she chases leaves and proudly carries sticks on walks. She’s working on leash skills and already mastering commands like “sit.” With her eagerness to please and sharp mind, she’s sure to pick up more tricks in no time. Piper is looking for an active, loving family who will give her the care, training, and companionship she craves. Could that be you? Don’t wait—Piper is ready to fill your life with love and laughter! Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). .

Story
Meet Kenji (aka Ginger)! 🐾 This sweet 4- to 5-year-old cur mix, weighing around 40 pounds, is looking for her forever family. Kenji has been affectionately nicknamed Ginger by her foster mom, and she’s thriving in her foster home. Kenji is already housebroken and loves following her human around. She’s fantastic with kids, happily living with 11- and 7-year-olds, and was a star with a visiting 3-year-old. She currently shares her home with a small foster dog brother. While her momma-dog instincts occasionally come through to keep him in line, they are getting along well. She hasn’t yet been introduced to cats. At night, Kenji is a dream sleeper—she rests quietly in her crate without a peep. During the day, she enjoys zooming around the fenced yard but is equally happy curling up indoors for long naps near her favorite humans. Kenji is shy with new people but quickly warms up into a loving and cuddly companion. She is gentle when taking treats, learning her basic commands, and starting to figure out the fun of toys. She has about two weeks of activity restriction left as she finishes heartworm treatment but is doing great and ready to bring her gentle, loyal energy to your home. Could Kenji (or Ginger!) be the perfect fit for your family? Our standard adoption fee is $375 cash or check and $385 credit card ($10 processing fee). .

Story
This girl was found as a stray and her owners refused to come pick her up so she is in search of another home. She is a sweet lady, a bit shy, but friendly. She is out of any puppy energy phase but does still like to play and she does get the zoomies. She was house-trained so would need to relearn it. She does well in a car and is okay on a leash. She does not get along with smaller dogs and probably not a fan of cats. She will need time to warm up to a person but is just a sweetheart when she knows you! She would be wonderful as a walking companion and lounge buddy. She is in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders.
