Now Available Through Safe Haven Dog Rescue

Now Accepting Applications!

Four foster favorites are ready for adoption through Safe Haven Dog Rescue – Roo, Radar, Jack, and Nash – and each is searching for their forever family!

Roo (16 weeks, 16 lbs, shepherd mix) – A playful pup with big paws and a big personality. She loves fetch, toys, and chase, and is smart too—already knows sit, come, and no. Roo sleeps quietly in her crate, is doing great with potty training, and gets along with dogs and even cats. She’d thrive with a fenced yard and a playful sibling.

Radar (16 weeks, 16 lbs, shepherd/husky mix) – The thoughtful one. He starts shy but quickly bonds into a loyal cuddle buddy. Radar has stunning, ever-changing eyes, is gentle with kids, and loves his foster dog sibling. He’s doing well with potty training and enjoys walks, though he takes time to warm up to new experiences.

Jack (11 weeks, 8 lbs, hound mix) – The runt with the biggest spark! Jack is playful, bouncy, and silly, but also a total lap snuggler. He knows sit, touch, and no, and is working on recall and down. Potty pad trained, sleeping through the night, and great with kids, cats, and dogs—he’s the perfect mix of spunky and sweet.

Nash (11 weeks, 10 lbs, hound mix) – Confident, affectionate, and always ready to greet you. Nash loves tug of war, playtime, and turkey tendons, but he’s also a little more laid back than his brothers. He knows sit, touch, and no, is working on recall, and is doing well with potty training. Nash is wonderful with kids, cats, and dogs.

All four are healthy, social, and full of puppy charm. While they came from tough beginnings in Tennessee, they’re thriving in foster care and ready to bring joy to their forever homes.
