Meet tennessee

This sweet girl may be a little shy at first, but she has so much love to give! Even when she's feeling unsure, she wants nothing more than to be close to her people. She loves sitting beside you, curling up in your lap, and enjoying all the cuddles she can get!

While she can be cautious in new situations, she has a curious and brave little spirit that shines through as she gains confidence. She's incredibly sweet and just needs a loving family to help her feel safe and secure.

She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would be happy to have a canine companion! However, her forever home must be cat-free.

With a little patience, love, and reassurance, this precious girl will blossom into the most devoted and affectionate companion!

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
