IDGSR Welcomes TAMMIE into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Hi Y'all! My name is Tammie and I'm a beautiful 1yr old Shepherd mix gal. I am located near Greeneville TN and will be available for transport to my forever home. Quick Facts: Age - 1yr old Home - would love a fenced in yard, will do fine in a condo or apartment with proper exercise Kids - fine with older kids (8+) Dogs - great with other dogs, ideally a large male Cats - NO cats Training - needs standard obedience training 1. I found myself in a scary kill shelter where no one was interested in me. Thankfully IDGSR came to my rescue! 2. I am house & crate trained! I heard this is a big deal. 3. I LOVE to play and have high energy! I hope you have a nice male pupper for me to play with, one of my favorite games is chase! 4. I am pretty well mannered but could use some standard obedience training. Training will help us bond and prove to your nosey neighbor you have the most well behaved pup on the block! 5. Did you set health and fitness goals for 2025? I can help you reach them by getting outside & being active with you! 6. I would love to go on walks, hikes, runs, take trips to get pup-cups, and help you try new recipes in the kitchen. 7.
