Meet Rowdy! 🐶
This boy is one of my FAVORITE dogs that I met while I was in TN.

⭐️Available but needs commitment!!
⭐️ FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED!!!

♥️ Age: 2 Years
♥️ Breed: Mixed
♥️ Weight: 41 lbs.

Rowdy is such a sweet dog. He gets all great with everyone, even when the puppies were testing his patience. Rowdy is a lover of people and will follow his person around. He is house broken and enjoys laying with you on the couch watching tv. Rowdy loves the water. He isn’t too sure on car rides just yet.

If you are looking for a loyal boy, he’s for you!!

Due to our own shelter being full, we need actual commitments on these dogs before we can pull him up.

🐾 Henry’s Next Chapter 🐾
After 183 days in the shelter, our beloved Henry, everyone’s favorite big-headed sweetheart, is finally out and settling into a loving foster home. 💙

Our amazing volunteers Erin and Derek, who’ve had a special bond with Henry, opened their home to give him the love and comfort he’s waited so long for. In true Henry fashion, he packed all his stuffies and settled into his cozy new setup like a pro. Now he’s relaxed, happy, and finally living the peaceful life every shelter dog dreams of.

But Henry’s story isn’t over yet! He’s still searching for a forever family to call his own. Come meet him today at Heidi’s Hollow Ice Cream from 2–4 PM and see just how special he is in person! 🍦🐶

Please share his story and help us find Henry the happy ending he deserves. For more about Henry’s journey, visit our website to read his full bio.

💛 And if you’ve ever thought about fostering, now’s the time. It changes lives, just ask Henry. You could be the bridge from shelter to forever.
