Odd companions: Belle and Jeb need a foster home together
Kind of an odd pairing, we think.
Meet Jeb and his sister Belle. The two of them have been together all their lives and were turned in to a shelter together. We were asked to take Jeb, but under our No Dog Left Behind policy, Belle has come along as an honorary big fluffy. Jeb is a very large, lazy and sweet Great Pyrenees, probably around 2. Belle appears to be older, maybe 4, and she appears to be a lab/dachshund mix (really). The two are completely devoted to each other and they must stay together. They do well with other dogs and cats and kids and are very well-mannered. If you think you can help AND you are in the middle Tennessee area or can get reasonably close, please email jean@bigfluffydogs.com.

Just for Fun: How big are our dogs?
David is still a puppy.
Meet David. David is an 11 month old Great Pyrenees in rescue with us. He is obviously a good-sized dog, but appearances can be deceiving.
David checking in to the groomers.
This counter is 4 plus feet high. David easily reaches over. No sandwich on the counter is safe. When David realizes that it’s going to be a bath, he’s checking out the way out.
David would like to rethink the bath thing.
Keep in mind, he’s at an angle to the door and not at full extension. David is indeed a big, fluffy dog.
PS He is also adoptable this week.
Sinjin the special needs Newfie mix needs a New England foster home
Sinjin needs a special home
Meet Sinjin. This sweet boy is a not quite 6-year old Newfoundland mix. Sinjin was left in a crate for years before he came to rescue with the result that he developed obsessive-compulsive disorder and spins in circles barking and biting at himself when stressed. Sinjin does very well with other dogs, cats and he loves children. Once he gets settled in to a place, the behaviors reduce and eventually stop. This dog needs stability and a calm environment. He is well-behaved in the home and is perfectly housebroken. This boy is currently in New England and needs a foster or forever home that is patient and understanding. Sinjin has suffered greatly and he deserves a home of his own. If you are interested in Sinjin, please email jean@bigfluffydogs.com.

Honorary fluffies: Henry the mangy puppy needs a Tennessee foster home
Henry needs a foster home and time to recuperate
This is one of our sadder cases. Henry is 5 months old and weighs around 12 pounds. We have no idea what his mix is, but I would not be surprised if he had some dachshund in his ancestry. It is safe to say he is not one of our usual dogs. Henry was rescued out of the tornadoes from April and came to us in absolutely miserable condition with severe demodectic mange. His skin was cracked and bleeding and we weren’t sure he would make it. Fast forward to today and he still looks awful, but to us, he looks amazing. Henry lives to play with other puppies. He is not contagious in any way and he just needs time, medicine and love. He needs a foster home in the middle Tennessee area. If you can help foster him, please email jean@bigfluffydogs.com.
If you would like to sponsor his care, you can do so here: http://bigfluffydogs.chipin.com/sponsor-henry. Thanks as always!

If you are interested, please email elizabeth@bigfluffydogs.com. Bart is currently in CT.

April is looking for a home
April the Great Pyrenees mix is looking for a home
Meet lovely April! She’s a 70lb leggy blonde whose main goal in life is to follow you around and make you happy. April is a sweet overgrown pup at just under 2 years old, but she’s intelligent and dignified enough to enroll in college this fall! Great with other dogs, cats, and even her foster mom’s 3 month old son, April’s motto in life is to fit in wherever she goes. She is full of energy when out on adventures, then content to lay at your feet when you want to relax. April REALLY wants to find her home! She’s been bounced around too much in her young life, and she needs to be convinced that she will never be left again. All she needs is a place where she can wrestle with a dog buddy (or two+), have lots of time with her humans, and believe once and for all that she is home for good. If you are interested, email elizabeth@bigfluffydogs.com.
