Meet Blue (brunette) & Zimba (blonde): two teenage boys with matching chaos.

These pit mixes are right in that “no thoughts, just vibes” phase of life. They’re goofy, playful, and convinced that everything is either a toy, a snack, or something to climb. Especially something to climb.

They love people. Like, a lot. Personal space is more of a suggestion. They also do well with most other dogs, as long as their friends can appreciate their… enthusiastic approach to life.

Both boys are food motivated (shocking, we know), which means you can absolutely bribe them into being slightly more civilized. Slightly.

They’re fully vetted, ready to go, and just looking for someone who understands that “teenage boy energy” is less of a phase and more of a lifestyle.

Adoption fee is $80 each. Yes, you could get one… but they do come in a matching set of nonsense if you’re feeling brave.

Adopt Blue or Zimba and add a little tomfoolery to your life. We promise you won’t be bored.

Meet Bax.

Imagine Winnie the Pooh and Ted had a baby, but only after Ted had his stuffing put back in wrong. That’s Bax. He’s a yellow lab mix who looks a little… off, but in the way that makes you stare for a second and then go “ok, wait I love him.”

And before anyone starts, no, his leg is not broken. It’s just wonky. It’s been wonky. It will remain wonky. Mind your business. He's a precious angel baby.

Bax is a 6 year old, middle-aged man who is past all the nonsense. He’s gentle, sweet, and gets along with people and other dogs because he simply does not have the energy for drama. He’s not here to impress you. He’s here to exist peacefully and maybe get a snack. Especially pizza crust. He'll do a very handsome sit for a piece of pizza crust.

He’s not your sleek, athletic, Instagram-ready lab. He’s better. He’s got character. He’s got quirks. He looks like he was assembled during a power outage and honestly? We respect that.

If you want perfection, keep scrolling.
If you want a weird little king who will love you without making it a whole production, come meet Bax. He's fully vetted and his adoption fee is $80.

We’re not sure where this girl is from, but she was brought in as a stray. Female black cat with white on her belly, and a few white hairs on her right side and chest. Wearing a purple flea collar, but no microchip present. Must provide proof of ownership to reclaim.

We are in need of a foster for this mama to be. If interested, it will be a 2-3 month commitment. We will provide all necessary supplies.
Thank you!

❤️❤️❤️BABY HAS BEEN ADOPTED!❤️❤️❤️

Meet Baby. Yes, that is her real name. Yes, it fits.

Baby is a 3-year-old American Bully mix whose main hobby is being an absolute potato. She’s low energy, low drama, and fully committed to the art of lounging. If you’ve been looking for a dog who won’t judge your binge-watching habits, she’s already on the couch waiting.

She loves humans, gets along well with other dogs, is crate trained and mostly house broken, and is very food motivated, which makes her both easy to train and extremely invested in your snack choices. The good news is she takes treats gently. The bad news is she will absolutely remember where you keep them.

Baby isn’t here for chaos. She’s here for soft beds, good snacks, and quality time with her people. If your ideal companion is more “chill roommate” than “marathon training partner,” Baby is ready to move in and perfect the potato lifestyle with you.

Since Elrod got so much attention last week, lets spread the lab love! ❤

Double the Labs, double the chaos, double the fun. 🎉
Meet Jamie and Katara, two 1-year-old black Lab lookalikes who are not sisters… they just apparently ordered from the same catalog. Both girls bring that classic Lab energy: outgoing, friendly, always ready to go, and convinced every person they meet is their new best friend.

They do great with other friendly dogs, though Jamie likes to make sure everyone understands she’s the one running the meeting. Katara is a little more go-with-the-flow, but don’t be fooled, she can keep up with the best of them.

Both girls are spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and heartworm negative, so they’re ready to hit the ground running in their new homes.

Looking for a hiking buddy, a playmate, or just a dog who thinks life should be lived at full speed? Jamie and Katara are ready to bring the party. Their adoption fee is only $80!

🚨 CALLING ALL TEAMS 🚨

Think you have what it takes to survive the Shelter Slumber Pawty? 🐾

We’re looking for teams to sign up for our 24-hour, crowd-funding, dog-filled fundraiser where you’ll trade your bed for a kennel and your alarm clock for barking roommates.

Here’s the deal:
• Form a team
• Raise funds for the shelter
• Take shifts spending time in kennels with our dogs and cats
• Compete in games, challenges, and general chaos

Yes, you will be hanging out in kennels.
Yes, the animals will judge you.
Yes, it will be a little unhinged.

But every dollar you raise helps provide medical care, spay/neuter services, and second chances for the animals who call this place home.

So grab your friends, your coworkers, or your bravest family members, pick a PAWSOME team name, and sign up to make a difference (and maybe lose a little sleep while you’re at it).

Spots are limited, so don’t drag your paws 🐕

👉 Email Whitney to register or for more info! wowen@jacksontn.gov

Some heroes don’t wear capes… they provide 1,000 vaccinations for shelter pets every single year 🐾

A huge thank you to our annual sponsor, Best One Tire and Service, for making it possible for the animals in our care to stay healthy, safe, and ready for their next chapter.

Their support means fewer preventable illnesses, stronger protection for our shelter population, and more pets getting the fresh start they deserve.

We’re incredibly grateful to have a partner that shows up for our animals in such a big way. Be sure to show them some love, they are truly making a difference where it counts 💛

❤️Elrod has left the building! He's been adopted! ❤️

🚨 ELROD: RETURNED ITEM, ZERO DEFECTS 🚨

Elrod is a 2-year-old chocolate lab who got adopted and then… somehow… returned.

We checked him over thoroughly and can confirm:
❌ Not broken
❌ Not defective
❌ Not even slightly annoying (okay maybe a little lab-level enthusiasm, but that’s standard equipment)

Here’s what you’re getting:
• Loves people like he’s trying to win a contest
• Dog friendly
• Housebroken (yes, really)
• Crate trained
• Walks pretty well on a leash
• Looks like a literal chocolate dream

We do know why he came back, but it’s not Elrod’s fault, and that’s all that matters. He’s still out here being a solid gold, top-shelf, A+ good boy.

Elrod is ready for a real forever home. One where “forever” doesn’t come with a receipt.

He’s neutered, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and accepting applications from people who are prepared to have a very handsome shadow for the next decade. His adoption fee is only $80!

Somebody come adopt this dog before we start getting suspicious of humanity again.
