Finn has been putting his Best Paw Forward in looking for his Forever Home. He's been to a few events & hasn't found his Special Person.
Could you share his post to give him a Leg Up?

Local Adopters Only: This dog is in the Cookeville, TN area. Adoption Donation $0 WAIVED

Finn is a big, sensitive sweetheart who has politely requested a ladies-only household to help him feel his very best. This one-year-old Saint Bernard Mastiff mix weighs around 100 pounds and, once he feels safe and settled, is a playful, medium-energy dog with a soft, marshmallow personality. In a calm and familiar environment, Finn relaxes into a gentle, goofy companion who enjoys playtime and quiet moments alike. One of his cutest habits is carrying around his oversized knotted rope toy like a prized treasure, proudly trotting from room to room with it in his mouth.

Finn loves food of all kinds and food is truly the way to his heart, which also makes him very responsive to training. He has completed a basic training course and knows multiple commands, and his trainers are available to help with refresher sessions in a new home to support his continued confidence building.

Finn is fully housetrained and crate trained and settles quietly in his crate. He walks very nicely on leash and enjoys long, relaxed walks rather than running. Finn loves playing with other dogs and would thrive with a friendly canine companion to help him feel secure. He is polite and curious around cats and does best with slow, thoughtful introductions.

Finn is a very timid boy in new situations and around unfamiliar people, especially men. When he feels overwhelmed, he may bark, growl, tremble, or try to hide, which are all fear based responses rather than aggression. With patience, consistency, and a gentle routine, Finn settles in and shows his affectionate, loyal nature. A quiet, women-only home with a securely fenced yard and at least one friendly dog would be the ideal match for him. If you think Finn could be the gentle giant your home has been waiting for, please text us at 931-260-8018 for more information.

Let's meet our trainers!
First up, Emily E.


I have been training dogs professionally since 2019. I have experience with several forms of instruction including private sessions, group classes, day training, and inboard training programs. I have worked with a wide range of dogs from small to large on a large variety of topics from complex behavioral issues to basic obedience to sports focused skillsets.

I have also been competing with my own dogs for several years in various sports. I focus on flyball, dock diving, and scent work currently. My love for high energy dogs that thrive with a job is what sparked my journey to be involved in training and competitive sports. This created a passion that extended into wanting to help other people be able to live life with their dogs to the fullest as well. Every dog and handler is an individual team and I believe in helping to find what training works best for each one to create a strong and enjoyable relationship.

Clarity in communication creates confidence and connection. Each dog deserves to have their needs met and each owner deserves to be able to enjoy their dog.
