Marty is in a foster home while he waits for his new permanent home. Foster families provide a temporary home and so much insightful information on these dogs. You too can be a foster home! Give us a call to find out more information. Here is what Marty's foster family says about him:
-Complete snugglebug and loves to be around people
-Loves playing with our other dog but knows when to back off/calm down
-Follows directions very nicely
-Does not engage when our other dog is barking at something
-Seems alright with our cat
-Fairly gentle with our small dog
-Loves toys and blankets
-Very few bathroom accidents (1 during first 2 hours here and 1 last night, but for the nighttime one he used the piddle pad we’ve laid in our bathroom) and will wake you up if he needs to go at night. Will also hold it for a majority of the night
If you think Marty could be the one for you, give us a call to set up a meet and greet! 901-385-6484

We posted these dogs earlier this week as urgent and they are still here. So, we are making one last attempt to get the word out that they need homes ASAP. We are begging on their behalf. (Picture us sitting in the dog beg position) Bartlett, TN 901-385-6484

04/17/2024

The following dogs are listed as URGENT and need homes ASAP! Their adoption fee is $36 and that includes all vetting. Information on each one is in the comment section on their picture. These are great dogs that just can't handle the shelter life any longer. Chandler has been here since 9/15/23! That is way too long for any animal to live in a shelter. Bartlett, TN 901-385-6484

Solar Eclipse 4/8/24! It looks so weird and neat outside. The animals are all good too!

Nerf was also brought back due to no fault of her own. The adopter's neighbor did not like her and the adopter was afraid for her safety.

Chandler needs your help! He is our longest resident. He has been here since 9/8/23! That is a long time to be in a shelter environment. He did get adopted on Monday but was brought back today when the boyfriend surprised the adopter with a full blooded dog. So, not his fault. He gets along well with other dogs and he is very calm and well mannered. He just needs someone to love him. Bartlett, TN 901-385-6484

Another BPD officer trying out for Animal Control! (They all secretly want to be us) We would take him. Good job Officer!

Look at how awesome ChiChi is doing for one of the trainers for Wonderdog Training! If you adopt ChiChi, she will come with one additional free training session by Wonderdog. ChiChi is about 4 years old and loves to play with other dogs. She is a sweetheart and wants to go home today! Bartlett, TN 38135

Mica and Midnight

UPDATE: MICA'S ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN PAID IF HE IS ADOPTED BY THIS WEEKEND, ALL HE NEEDS IS A HOME! Mica is in desperate need of a home ASAP! He is the solid black dog in this video. He is only about 10 months old and has been here since we was a puppy. Why can’t he catch a break? Look how good he is! He is a great dog until he gets locked back in his kennel. That when he is so stressed it is sad to continue watching him decline. Please someone help him! 901-385-6484. His adoption fee is $36!

UPDATE: We have spoken to the people in the video and they have been educated on how to handle animal situations in the future. Thank you all for your help! Let us know if you know who these folks are. We would like to speak with them. As always, remember to smile for the cameras!

Please take a look at this video. Pay attention to the dog’s reaction and how panicked he is to see his people driving away. This happened about 8:40 PM on 3/11/23. He was not found in the dog park until the next afternoon. The reasons this is a bad idea: 1. During this time several people visited the dog park. Thankfully, they saw him and didn’t just turn their dogs in not knowing there was a dog in there. That could have ended very badly. He seems friendly but someone else’s dog may not be. 2. The last time this happened, the dog that was left behind was not a friendly one and tried to bite 3 different people. 3. This poor dog got himself stuck behind part of the fence. Thank goodness it wasn’t hot. 4. Dogs can get out of the park if they try hard enough. We back up to the river bottom. A very dangerous place after dark for domestic animals. 5. IT IS AGAINST THE LAW!!! Yes, we file charges against the people that do this. Oh! Be sure to smile for the cameras!

UPDATE: Chicken has found a home! Monty (white and tan) is still waiting. When you are all tuckered out but still want to play! 🤣 Chicken Wing and Monty are waiting for their new homes. Come meet them and their friends anytime we are open.

As we have said before, we will keep saying it. Please get your animals microchipped!!! Moo Cow has been missing for almost a year. Today he was reunited with his owner, thanks to his microchip being registered.

Well, this is something you don’t see everyday! Animal Control worked tirelessly into the night with volunteer cowboys and the owner to get all 5 cows home safely. Unfortunately, we could only get 2 home before it got too dark to continue. So, please use caution when traveling in the Shadowlawn area.

Momma Bear has worked so hard to overcome her past life in horrendous conditions. She has learned how to walk on a leash and greet people without fear. She has learned what it is like to be a happy dog. Just imagine how happy she would be in a home of her own, free from a kennel that has been her entire life. She has been trying to get a home since 3/7/18!!! Not a soul has looked at her. Everyone else that came with her from her life, if you can call it that, has been adopted and is doing wonderfully in their new home. She can’t live here forever. We must find her a home! Please consider this sweet girl. Like a lot of huskys, she needs a home without cats. Her adoption fee is $86 and that includes all vetting. 901-385-6484. Bartlett, TN.

We decided to have a little fun on this rainy day.

We have dogs and cats out here today. Adoptions are $47.50. Come out and join us on this beautiful day.

Poor Smokey Robinson doesn't understand why nobody wants him! His only family are his stuffed babies that he takes everywhere with him. He has been waiting on someone to love him since 11/3/16. That is almost 3 months! Way too long for a handsome guy like himself. He gets along well with other dogs and kids. He is strong though! He would need a harness to go on walks with you. He is a lab mix about 5 years old. If you would like to be the lucky best friend of Smokey please call us at 901-385-6484 for more details! More pictures in comments.

*****UPDATE 1/10/17: The dog is ok. We do know who the people are and we are handling the situation. Thank you for your help. Does anyone recognize this woman, dog, or truck? If so, please let us know. We have a few questions for her. Thank you. I think we can all agree this is upsetting. Please keep foul language off this feed. It does not help.

UPDATE!!!! MARS HAS BEEN RESCUED!!! Mars needs your help!!! She is no longer able to endure shelter life. She has been in a cage for over 3 months. She now paces back and forth in her cage and is running out of time. As you can see she is very friendly. She has nursed 2 litters and they have all been adopted. She deserves a chance at a home too! Please call us today! 901-385-6484.

Sweet old Miss Molly is flying to her new home! Thank you PAWS and Mike for getting her to her happy ever after.

Charlotte needs to find a new home. We don't think she bites but we do think she could be pregnant. She used to sit quietly on her web but now when anyone comes close, she starts having a fit and jumping up and down. If she doesn't find a new home soon and she has babies, we may not have any staff left at the shelter. She is free to a good home! Haha!
