All dogs are medically screened, fully vaccinated, microchipped, on heartworm preventative and flea/tick meds, and will have beginner basic obedience training at the end of their 4-week course.

We are accepting applications and will work on home visits while classes are going on. All dogs will be able to go to their new homes on Friday, April 18th after graduations.

The first week, their teen trainers worked teaching their names, focusing on their handler, sit and some leash manners to name a few things. Additional skills the dogs will be learning are Down, Stay, Come, and manners like Off, Leave it, and Drop it.

All breeds and ages are the best guess from our Dog Selection Committee and Veterinarian.

New Spring 2025 Class!

By | Adoption Event, News

We’re getting started a couple of weeks early this year. We are excited to share that our spring class will be starting on Monday, 03/24/25! Our Dog Selection team worked with Jefferson County’s CARE,  Companion Animal Rescue and Education, again for this class and they were great to work with.

Meet Harley, Buffy, Rose, and Sonny!

Our Fab Four have been with the team at Ideal Veterinary Hospital getting all their final medical checks and vaccinations to get them ready for class. We’ve been hearing great reports that the staff the staff love them.

We are getting to know their personalities and will share more as they go through classes with their new teen trainers. We are now accepting applications for those interested in adopting a dog this session. Graduations will be complete on April 17th, and dogs will be ready to go to their forever homes on Friday, April 18th!

Their first outing will be at Willow Ridge Garden Center in Oak Ridge on Saturday, 03/22 from 11a-1pm. Adoption events are important to help us get them out into the community to help find their forever homes, but they are also an important part of their training to work on socialization meeting new people and desensitizing them to new sites, sounds and smells in various environments.

Please come by to meet them, even if you’re not looking to adopt. You can be an important part of their training!
