Meet Rocky Road this one year old lab/hound mix that is just sweeter than sugar. He is a quiet little boy and under 40 pounds. He is a shy little dog that would be great in a quieter household. Rocky is not into too much drama unless that is sitting next to you watching TV on a Saturday night. He does get along with other dogs and is currently in a foster home with two. His highlight of daily exercise is playing and chasing after his pink ball, but he loves to go on daily walks too. If you would like to meet this little scoop of delightful ice cream, call Kristin at (865) 599-4262 or email us.

Meet Rocky Balboa a good guy with a tough exterior, immense heart, determination, and unwavering loyalty. I am a young boy, only a year and a half, and weigh around 88 pounds. I like to socialize with other dogs, after I have been formally introduced and enjoy human interaction, in fact, I am pretty much a nosybody who wants to be with you and know what is going on every minute.

I am a vocal greeter, which means I “bark” if I see someone I don’t know, so that is a trait that I will have to work on for walks. I am highly food-motivated and love to work, so that would be helpful in training. I would love to find a confident or experienced owner who would have room for me in their life. If you think you could be the one, call Kristin at (865) 599-4262 or pm us.

Harry Pawter is a 3-year-old, 60 lb neutered male Boxer/Boston Terrier mix. When this handsome boy struts down the street all the ladies heads turn. He has a magnetic personality but does wear his heart on his sleeve and pouts if you don’t give him love and attention. He does well with other dogs—both male and female, and absolutely loves, loves people. He is crate and housetrained, and an easy keeper.

Harry is a smart boy who learns quickly. He is fascinated by movement—cars, bicycles, and runners—and enjoys watching the world go by. He has been learning the basics commands and is a bright boy, of course, his name is Harry Pawter.

Harry is truly the sweetest boy and would make a wonderful companion. Just look at his handsome dignified face. If you would like to meet Harry and add some magic to your life, call Kristin at 865-599-6242 or pm us.

Meet another one of BCAWS New Year babies: Aubrey is an adorable Black Lab puppy approximately 11 months old and 53 pounds. This girl is pure, unfiltered joy. She's the type of dog who will trip over her own feet, pop back up, and celebrate like she just won an award for Best Fall.

Aubrey is medium energy, playful, and sweet. She does well with other dogs and is house and crate trained. She walks well on a leash, though squirrels are still a bit too exciting to ignore. Who could blame her?

She is currently in foster care with Harry Pawter and three cats and is adjusting well in a home environment. If you would like to meet this beauty contact Kristin at (865) 599-4262 or pm us.
