Jessie is a 2yo spayed female. She is housetrained and current on her immunizations. She is friendly and full of energy, and we are working on training her not to jump up on people. She does like to chase stray cats unfortuantely. She is definitely a companion and will stay by your side wherever you go, even if it's from the living room to the kitchen and back. She walks on a leash and does well without a leash, provided no cats in the yard. We have crate-trained her. She loves rawhide chews and balls, and as long as she is occupied with toys, shoes are generally safe. She has been known to put a few holes in a couple of my socks, but as long as she has something to do, she will leave my things alone. Thanks for your help! For more information, please contact Jonathan jtroup@acpharm.org or call him at 276-498-3269 (h) or 276-385-5425 (c) Jessie is located in Vansant, VA, and her requested donation is $150.00.

Meet Bingo, a 2 - 3 year old neutered border collie mix. He is also fully vaccinated and heartworm negative.

Bingo is a very nice and loving soul. He is great with children, loves to swim in the creek, and gets along fine with other dogs. He is also house trained but has not been exposed to crate training.

This is an active boy who loves to go on walks and does very well on the leash. He would do well as a family pet as he loves to be around children, and enjoys petting and being groomed. He is loyal and loving and has become very attached to the family who took him in - he was found wandering several weeks ago.

For more information about Bingo, please contact Barbara at bacrane@wildblue.net or call her at 865-803-4273. or 865-988-0058. He is located in Maryville, TN and his adoption donation is $125.00.

Ziggy is 1year and 3 month old neutered male dog weighing about 52 pounds.

Ziggy is a loving well kept, clean dog. He was taken to the vet just a week ago and had all his shots and heartworm and other tests done as well as we had him groomed. He is given his heartworm meds and flea medicine monthly. He is the type of dog that when you come home he will greet you with a wagging tail . I would love to find a home with a large fenced yard, another dog to play, or children as he is good with them.

WHY GIVE HIM AWAY...

My 21 year old son rescued a border collie puppy last year. He now has graduated from UGA and got a job working for a hospital corporation in Florida. He will have to live in an apartment for the next few years and work 9-12 hours a day . The company he got the job with also told him not to plant his feet to deep anywhere, they have plans to keep him moving from hospital to hospital. He went down there last week in hopes to find somewhere for his dog and he could reside but after looking at the hosing situation he realized it was VERY limited with a pet his size and what is available is way too much money for a starting salary person to afford. After a lot of torment and soul searching he realizes that an apartment is not the best home for his dog. Especially knowing he would have to be there 9-12 hoursa day he now realizes that although he loves the dog deeply he has to give him up in hopes of finding a loving home that can provide Ziggy with the time and love he needs. If you know any one or any services that might help me place this dog in a good home situation. Please contact me Emily Tyson (678)520-0256 teachemty@bellsouth.net.

Taylor is a young adult border collie, born in March 2008. She is spayed, vaccinated and on monthly heartworm preventative. This is a very smart and loving dog - she knows "sit", "down" and "go to jail", which means go to your crate. She is great with people, even young children. She loves to please, and is a fast learner.

Taylor has shown some aggression towards her current owner's female dog on a few occasions - this is most likely territorial aggression. Her lifestyle has been somewhat sedentary and she needs a more active home and a job to do - she will most likely excel at some form of canine sport. She would do well as an only dog or with a male dog as a companion.

For more information about Taylor, please contact Kim Reynolds at 615-497-2719 or Kim.reynolds@ingrambook.com

Lily is 2 years old, spayed, current on all shots, on HW preventative.

She is house trained, crate trained, but usually spends the day outside (when I am at work) and comes in and out the rest of the time (I work from home a lot). She get along well with other dogs (she is submissive here). Plays a little rough with our goats, but stays clear of the horses. She sleeps with us at night (on their bed) and will let you know if she needs to go out.

Lily has learned several commands, such as "touch (where she touches her nose to my finger)", "let's go to bed" (they have their own twin size bed in our bedroom, but she will jump up and lay with me from time to time), "want to go out or go potty or go see", "where's your toy", "where's the cat", "where's Katie (one of our dogs)". She isn't a snuggler, she likes to have her own space to lay around, but from time to time she will get on the couch beside me. She likes to play rough with the other dogs, but is gentle with us. She can run like the wind!

Call or email 256-775-7691 or djdurham@ymail.com. Lily is located in Cullman, AL, and her requested adoption donation is $75.00
