Story
  Meet Bimbi – Your Loyal, Lovable Companion in the Making   Bimbi is a stunning, 3-year-old spayed beauty weighing in at around 40 pounds. With her regal looks and soulful eyes, she turns heads wherever she goes—but it’s her heart that really makes her shine.   Bimbi has known what it means to be let down, having spent much of her life confined to a crate. Despite this, she got along well with the small dogs in her previous home and remained the friendly, affectionate girl she was born to be. Sadly, when her family fell on hard times, Bimbi was surrendered, and now she’s waiting for her true forever home.   She absolutely loves meeting new people and soaks up attention like sunshine. She adores hugs, belly rubs, kisses, and gentle brushing with a soft brush—she’ll even close her eyes in bliss. Her favorite spot? Anywhere you are.   While Bimbi might not know a ton of commands just yet, she’s eager to learn and food-motivated (she mastered “sit” in record time with a few treats!). She enjoys playing with toys and balls—fetch is a favorite, even if she doesn’t always return the ball right away. Treat-based games are another great way to bond with her and keep her busy.   She’s a big fan of cozy dog beds and fluffy blankets, though when bored, she may chew on them a bit—so she’ll thrive with love, structure, and plenty of companionship. Her happiest moments? Going for car rides with her people. It’s been a while since she’s gotten to feel the wind in her fur, and she misses it deeply.  Bimbi is ready to trade her kennel days for couch cuddles, backyard exploring, movie nights, and being your loyal shadow. She doesn’t think cats make good roommates, so a cat-free home is a must.   If you’re looking for a dog who will love you with her whole heart, who’s ready to learn, ready to play, and even more ready to belong—Bimbi is your girl. Come meet her. She’s been waiting for you.   Email us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com    ADOPTION FEE REQUIRED. Contact ccrtennessee@gmail.com.April 26, 2025, 10:08 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.    Nora and her friend Nyla were rescued from a heartbreaking situation when their owner was arrested. Left in a house without food, water, or air conditioning for over 24 hours, these two sweet souls were in desperate need of care. Since coming into foster care, Nora has blossomed into a loving, playful girl with a heart full of joy. Nora absolutely adores her toys and is always ready for a good game! She’s affectionate, fun-loving, and enjoys spending quality time with her people. Nora must be an only dog and cannot live with other dogs. She has shown some curiosity toward cats, so a cat-free home would also be ideal. Nora is kennel trained and has done well in the house, making her an easy and rewarding companion. She’s looking for a home where she can soak up all the attention, playtime, and cuddles she deserves. If you’re ready to welcome a sweet, energetic, and devoted companion into your life, Nora is waiting to meet you!    Medical Notes: Spayed Vaccinated Dewormed Microchipped Heartworm Negative ProHeart 12 Injection Maintained on monthly flea/tick preventatives  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 23, 2026, 10:32 am
