Meet Dove 🖤✨
Dove is stunning, the kind of dog that turns heads everywhere she goes. With her sleek, shiny black coat that looks like it’s been polished, adorable little “sock” markings, and rich chocolate eyes that just melt into you… she is truly a picture of elegance and sweetness all in one.
At around 3 years old and 47 lbs, Dove is the perfect size (not too big, not too small) and carries herself with a gentle, graceful presence that makes her impossible not to fall in love with.
Dove’s story started with heartbreak. She was abandoned at a home when her people moved away, left behind with two other dogs (now named Hollis & Nico). But just like them, Dove refuses to let her past dim her light.
Instead, she shines.
Dove is:
• Incredibly sweet and people-loving
• Crate trained
• House trained
• Medium energy: happy to play, but also loves to relax
She’s the kind of dog who fits beautifully into a home; easygoing, affectionate, and just wants to be near her people. Whether she’s gently leaning in for love or quietly lounging by your side, Dove brings a calm, comforting presence wherever she goes.
But truly… it’s her beauty that stops you and her heart that keeps you.
Dove is more than just a pretty face. She’s resilient, loving, and so ready for a forever home where she’ll never be left behind again.
Steps To Adopt
Thank you for choosing to adopt or foster and aid in the rescue efforts of RARE! **Adoption Interest Form REQUIRED via our website Rarerescue.org**Meet Marshall! Marshall is a happy, smiling boy with plenty of love and affection to give! Marshall has burst of fun energy, but he’s also just as happy to hang out and relax with his people. He loves other playful, energetic dogs and would thrive with a canine friend who enjoys a good romp. Marshall is crate trained, house trained, and does wonderfully in his crate when left alone—though like any young dog, he still needs to be crated so he doesn’t find something mischievous to get into. Marshall is showing great signs of maturity in his foster home, as we've received countless photos and videos of him snuggling soundly like a perfect angel while his foster works from home. Not to mention, his fur is unbelievably soft making him the ideal cuddle buddy!!Marshall is great with kids, but because of his sometimes exuberant personality, older children would be best for his next placement. If you’re looking for a joyful, playful, snuggly, and loyal companion, Marshall may be the perfect fit for your family. He has so much to offer!STEPS TO ADOPT: Read the adoptable’s bio below, including their adoption fee Go to RARErescue.org and Read our ADOPTION PROCESS page under the "Adopt" section Complete the DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM (located on our website RARErescue.org) We understand that it is important to you to find the right fit for your family. We feel the same way! The DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM is important and REQUIRED for this reason. All of our Adoptables are:Spayed/neutered; Up to date on vaccines; Heartworm tested if six months or older (& kept on heartworm preventative and treated for heartworms if positive when entering our program): Microchipped prior to adoptionBREEDS: We are not breed experts. The breed(s) listed for each adoptable are best guesses or suggestions.PLEASE NOTE: We are a non-profit organization without municipal or government funding. Veterinary/Medical expenses are constant for an animal rescue. Our adoption fees not only help to provide vetting and care for the animal being adopted, but they also help to cover heartworm treatments and other treatable ailments that many animals, that would otherwise be euthanized, need in order to be made available for adoption.Please understand that adopting an animal is a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to that animal and there will be veterinary expenses throughout their life that can often cost several hundreds, if not thousands of dollars (without pet insurance), especially without annual checkups and preventative care. As a potential family for this pet you are responsible for their safety and that includes keeping them on your property.***If you are not in the middle Tennessee area, transport can potentially be arranged to approved homes, depending on distance and local adaptability. We normally do not allow adoptions outside of 1.5 hours driving distance.
