One Animal At A Time

We’re New Leash On Life - Home of The JOY Clinic, and we’ve been an animal welfare non-profit here in Lebanon, TN, since 1978. We take pride in our pet food pantry and The JOY Clinic. We started this business because Wilson County was in need of an animal shelter. We are the first humane society in Wilson County. Our hope for the future is that there will be no unwanted, unlo

ved or abandoned dogs or cats. We will continue with our aggressive spay/neuter campaign and our pet owner support programs in the hopes that all dogs and cats can find loving homes or stay with their loved family. We strive to help dogs and cats in Wilson County, TN and across the Middle Tennessee area. We’d like to personally invite you to make an appointment to stop by and meet your new best friend, today!

Memo from Santana, Surgery Suite Supervisor: After careful consideration and extensive napping, I have determined that Dr. Cooper does not require my active assistance at this time. I will continue to monitor the situation from my current position. πŸ˜‚

Hi. I'm Santana. I am 11 years old, I am very good at napping, and I am absolutely ready to bring my unique skill set to your home. I love hugs. I love being the center of attention. I drool a little when I am really happy. I take one daily thyroid pill and I do not make it weird. I would prefer to be your only cat and I can tolerate a respectful dog.

🐾 Meet Your New Best Friend! 🐾
Looking for a sweet, smart, and incredibly loving companion? Meet this handsome 5-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog / Labrador Retriever mix who is searching for his forever home!
Sadly, he was abandoned, but he hasn't let that dampen his spirits. True to his Berner roots, he absolutely loves people and has so much affection to give. At a perfect 47 lbs, he is the ideal size for adventures and couch cuddles.
About Him:
Age: 5 years old
Weight: 47 lbs
Breed: Bernese / Lab Mix
Personality: Very sweet, smart, and deeply loving.Dog
Friendly: Yes! He gets along great with other dogs.
Cats/Kids: Untested
Ideal Home: He has a playful energy and currently plays too rough for the senior dog in his home. Because of this, he would do best as an only dog or with another active, playful dog who can match his energy.
He is ready to leave his past behind and find a family to love forever. Could it be you?

Myth Buster Monday: Spoiled Pet Edition: Let's settle a very important debate...

❌ Myth: Letting your dog sleep in your bed means they're spoiled.
βœ… Truth: That's just called sharing and is really just bare minimum.

❌ Myth: Talking to your pet like they're a person means they're spoiled.
βœ… Truth: They are a person. Next question.

❌ Myth: Rearranging your schedule around your pet means they're spoiled.
βœ… Truth: Your pet has appointments, routines, and standards. Please be respectful.

❌ Myth: Giving your pet special treats, birthday celebrations, or their own blanket makes them spoiled.
βœ… Truth: We checked with your pet, and they consider this basic customer service.

πŸ’™ Now it's your turn...

Show us your "not spoiled at all" pets in the comments! We promise not to judge. πŸ˜‰

🐾 Looking for your new best friend? Join us this Sunday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Mount Juliet PetSmart and meet some adorable adoptable pups from New Leash on Life!

🐢 Bernice (white with tan) and Birdie (black and white) are our newest arrivals. These sweet Pyrenees/Border Collie mixes are about 6 months old and currently weigh around 20 pounds. They’ll be heading back to the shelter on Thursday for their spay appointments, so now is the perfect time to meet them!

🐢 Arlo is a handsome 10-month-old Pyrenees/Lab mix weighing about 48 pounds. He’s a lovable guy ready for a family of his own.

🐢 Dean and Lisa are 6-month-old small mixed-breed puppies who will even be making an appearance on NewsChannel 5 Sunday morning! They currently weigh around 20 pounds and are only expected to get a little bigger.

✨ Adoption fees are $150 per puppy and include age-appropriate veterinary care.

🏑 As with all New Leash on Life dogs, adopters must agree that their new family member will be primarily an indoor pet, with supervised outdoor playtime only.
