Today was Sassy’s lucky day! This sweet girl officially went home with her new family, and we couldn’t be happier for her. After waiting for her perfect match, Sassy finally gets to trade shelter life for a comfy bed, endless love, and a family to call her own.

Thank you to her adopters for opening your hearts and home to this deserving girl. We know Sassy has a wonderful future ahead filled with adventures, cuddles, and all the love she could ever want.

Happy tails, Sassy! We can’t wait to see all the memories you’ll make with your new family.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to a generous donor for making a donation to our shelter in loving memory of Jed.

The bond we share with our pets is truly special, and while they may no longer be by our side, their love and impact remain forever in our hearts. Donations made in memory of beloved companions like Jed help us continue providing care, comfort, and second chances to animals in need.

Thank you for honoring Jed’s memory in such a meaningful way. His legacy of love will help make a difference in the lives of shelter pets waiting for their own happy endings.

Some dogs wait far too long for their chance, and Coco was one of them.

For reasons we’ll never understand, this sweet boy spent much more time in the shelter than a dog as wonderful as he is ever should have. Through it all, Coco remained the same loving, loyal, good-natured dog we’ve always known him to be.

Today, we’re celebrating the ending he’s been waiting for… Coco has been adopted!

While we’ll miss seeing his happy face every day, there is nothing better than watching a long-term resident walk out the door with a family of his own. After spending so much time waiting, Coco finally gets the comfort, love, and security he deserves.

Coco’s new family, thank you for giving this deserving boy the fresh start he’s been waiting for. Happy tails, Coco. We can’t wait to see all the adventures ahead.

Maple first came to the shelter and waited months for someone to see just how special she is. Eventually, she found a loving home with a wonderful woman who adored her. Sadly, after her adopter passed away, Maple found herself back at the shelter through no fault of her own. After spending some time in a foster home, Maple got the second chance she deserved.

Today, Maple was adopted again!!

This sweet girl has experienced loss, change, and uncertainty, but she never stopped being loving, gentle, and deserving of a family. We are so happy to see her starting this new chapter!

If you’re looking for a beautiful, fun-loving companion, Gypsy might be your perfect match. At just one-year-old, this gorgeous girl turns heads with her stunning black coat and bright personality. We believe she may be a Heeler mix. She has that energetic, adventurous spirit to match. Gypsy loves to stay busy, explore her surroundings, and make every day a little more exciting. She is mostly housebroken, walks well on a leash, and absolutely loves attention from her people. Beneath her playful energy is a super sweet dog who enjoys affection and spending time with those she trusts. If you’re looking for a young dog with beauty, personality, and plenty of love to give, and plenty of love to give, come meet Gypsy today.

If you're interested in meeting Gypsy, come see her any time that we are open at 78 Mig Drive, Lexington, TN 38351. Our hours are Tuesday through Friday, 11am-5pm, Saturday, 11am-3pm.

You can visit our website at fhhas.org to apply online to adopt Gypsy or check out the rest of our dogs that are available for adoption!

We truly can't believe sweet Sassy is still here waiting for her family.

Sassy is a beautiful Labradoodle with the sweetest personality. She's incredibly well-mannered, loves people, and once she picks you, she sticks to you like glue. She just wants to be near her person at all times.

She's still working on house training, but she's smart and eager to please. With a little patience and consistency, she's going to make someone an amazing companion.

If you're looking for a loyal best friend that will love you endlessly, Sassy might just be your girl.

Her adoption fee is $125. She's spayed, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, heart worm negative & on preventative.

Come see her at 78 Mig Drive, Lexington, TN 38381 Tuesday through Friday, 11am-5pm, Saturday, 11am-3pm, or apply online at fhhas.org.
