Introducing this week’s dog of the week, PEARLE!! Pearle is a 2 year old, 64 pound Boxer mix girl with the CUTEST little face! Walker County contacted us in February when her microchip showed she came from our shelter. We eventually figured out that one our microchips got put into someone's personal pet when at the vet. Even though she did not come from our shelter, we couldn't get her sweet face out of our heads and decided to take her in anyways. We had never met Pearle before this switch up, but we are glad she found her way to us!

Pearle is the friendliest and most easy dog to adventure with. She gets along with every dog we have introduced her to. She has a big crush on Godwin, one of our long term residents, and her bestie is Lucinda, the cutest hippo you will ever meet.

Pearle has also never met a human stranger. She loves cuddling up with anyone who will give her pets and loves any treat handed to her. She is a great walker on the leash and has become a volunteer favorite to walk. Pearle does show interest in chasing squirrels and rabbits on walks. Due to this attraction, we think Pearle would benefit from a cat free household.

Since Pearle is so friendly, we believe she would benefit from a family who already has another dog or who would be willing to adopt one of her shelter friends. If you are interested in meeting Pearle or any other PPC pet, please contact us via website or call 423-877-0738.

Introducing our dog of the week ZYLA! Zyla is a 2.5 year old Pitbull and Pug mix girl that weighs 40 pounds...at least that is our best guess. This beauty has been with us since September 2024 which is OVER 600 DAYS! Zyla was rescued from a small outdoor pen with 3 other large dogs where she had a litter of 9 puppies. Sadly, only one of her puppies survived and was eventually adopted by her rescuer. He looks just like him mom, too!

Since Zyla has had a rough start in life, she is very hesitant to trust humans. She is extremely shy and needs a person or family who will give her time to earn her trust. Once she accepts you into her circle, she will love you forever which makes you feel extra special.

Zyla has grown to love and trust our staff and regular volunteers. She often greets them with the zoomies and a wagging tail. It will melt your heart to see her smile:) She has also learned that if you stop petting her, and she gently taps you with her paw, the pets keep coming. She may even inch her way onto your lap or next to you to ensure she gets more pets or even treats.

Zyla currently is an “office dog” where she gets to hang out with several other adoptable dogs. She does GREAT with the confidence of her dog friends and finds comfort in being near them, or even on top of them:) Zyla is also learning to walk on a leash and gets better with every attempt!

Since Zyla is still working on gaining confidence, Zyla would best benefit from a patient home and family. She needs someone willing to visit her regularly to earn that trust before taking her into their home. She most definitely needs to go to a home where she will have another dog friend and due to being a flight risk, she also needs a fenced in yard to keep her safe. While Zyla does fine around kids that come to visit, she would prefer a home without small children mostly because she prefers a more calm environment.

We know Zyla's personality is not suited for most people looking for a dog, but we also know her person is out there. If you are interested in meeting Zyla or any other PPC pet, please contact us via website or call 423-877-0738.
