Would you like to help with rescue but are unable to adopt?
Please consider sponsoring
one of the precious angels on our website.
These babies as you see them now did not arrive to us in this condition. Most, if not all of our rescues, are always matted, in horrible condition and always need vetting. The animals you see pictures of now are babies that we have cared for and worked tirelessly for, so that they will become the beautiful and loving pets that they are today.
Constant health care for our "special needs" babies along with monthly heartworm and flea preventatives and various other expenses incurred are costly and keep our organization constantly in debt. We are looking for rescue angels to sponsor our rescues monthly by either sending a check or making payments via paypal. By choosing a special fluffster to help, you are allowing us to give them the best possible care and to continue our rescue efforts and save more furbabies whose lives depend on us.
If you would like to make your sponsorship payment by mail, please send a check to:
Asian Dog Rescue
P.O. Box 697
Madisonville, TN 37354
Or click on the button below or beside the special baby(s) that you would like to sponsor.
We have many foster homes in many different states. We are merely "based" in Tennessee. We have foster homes in FL, AR, MS, MO, GA, NC, SC, TN, VA, NY, NJ.
Most of our TN foster pets are generally located here on " Foster Furkids 1", however we have now listed with each pet's bio where the rescue pet's foster home is located. If approved for adoption, you are responsible for picking up your new pet at that location.
If interested in adopting any of our rescue pets, please fill out our ADOPTION APPLICATION .
There you will find all of our adoption policies and procedures as well.
We feed most of our rescue dogs Blue Buffalo brand chicken and brown rice dog food(found at PetsMart). We also have some of our rescues getting freshly cooked meals of lean fish/chicken/carrots/green beans/peas/sweet potato/asparagus/small amount brown rice/blueberries/flax seed, omega 3 fatty acids. We recommend this regimen be followed for all of our adopted rescue pets as well, for their optimum health and well being.
Please remember that when you adopt from us, you are saving a life because when one dog gets adopted, we save another from a kill shelter or puppy mill and we always choose those that have no other hope left and are scheduled to die.
 
Amy is a 2 year old, 12 lb., West Highland White Terrier/Poddle mix (Westie-Poo) that was rescued from a rural shelter shortly before euthanization. She looks very much like a Westie. Same size(a bit smaller), beautiful, glowing, bright white coat with just a shade of apricot in two small spots with a bit of curl. Her coat is gorgeous and her ears stand straight up. She is so adorable, an absolute doll! Amy is a very playful and personable baby. She loves being the center of attention, is very affectionate and always wants to be by your side. The first thing Amy did when meeting us was to give us kisses! She is not shy at all, she loves everyone and is very outgoing. Amy is a darling little girl, is very active and is pre- spoiled, as all babies should be. She walks well on a leash and rides great in the car. She has the sweetest, most beautiful disposition that you could ever imagine. Love, love, love and more love. She is an angel on earth in fur.

  Shelby is a 12 month old, white and gold, 6 lb. Shih Tzu/Maltese mix. He was rescued in deplorable condition from a very high kill shelter before he was to be euthanized. This poor, darling baby was horribly neglected and mistreated. He was so dirty that he required numerous baths before all the dirt would even come out. He was so horribly matted that his coat had to be shaved from head to tail but he is still way too cute. He does still have a bit of "staining" on his face from being filthy for so long, however his coat has gold markings as a secondary color as well. His coat is dry from poor care and lack of proper nutritition but can you just imagine when his coat gets healthy and grows out???? It will be beautiful. He's what Maltitzu dreams are made of. This is an adorable little boy who looks very much like a Shih Tzu with the somewhat longer nose of a Maltese and much smaller in size than most Shih Tzus. We see the beauty of both breeds in this precious baby, however he definitely looks much more like a Shih Tzu than a Maltese. He has a beautiful face with huge Tzu eyes that will melt you. He has snow white teeth and is completely grown at his very small size although he is still a bit thin. Shelby is a very, very sweet and gentle boy. He was very timid and scared initially and all he wanted to do was snuggle close to your body and be held and comforted. As he realized that he was not going to be hurt anymore and was in a "good place", he very quickly started becoming playful, happy and social. He became great friends with his fellow rescues in his foster home and plays very well with others. He loves to be held, is very well behaved and he gets along with everyone and all other animals although he is a bit shy and scared initially. Pure innocence and sweet, sweet love is what Shelby is. House and leash training reinforcement is always necessary when bringing any pet into your home. Shelby will be neutered, heartworm tested, brought UTD on shots and has been de-wormed with Drontal Plus and had Frontline Plus applied. 275.00 adoption fee. Shelby is being fostered near Knoxville, TN.
Update: Feb. 4: Shelby was neutered today, was brought UTD on shots, heartworm tested(NEG) and started on preventatives. He is doing well this evening and will now be available for adoption.

He gets along very, very well with other dogs, does very well with grooming and has an excellent disposition. He was severely matted so his coat had to be cut way down, but he is still absolutely adorable. Wasabi was rescued from a very bad situation where he was abused so he is very timid and scared. He is so gentle and loving, he just needs time to understand he won't be hurt. This extremely sweet and adorable baby would benefit greatly and love to be in a home with another dog to give him support and confidence.

  Domino is an 8 month old, 15 lb. Miniature Schnauzer. Domino's tail had been docked but his ears never cropped so even though he is pure Schnauzer, his ears look a bit bigger. All the better to hear you with! This gorgeous and very regal looking boy is a very, very sweet baby that is so much fun to have around. He loves to play and loves his squeaky toys. He is full of energy and is a very happy, well adjusted little boy. He is doing pretty good on his housebreaking, rides well in the car, is getting better about his grooming and loves other dogs.

  Rachael is an approximately 2 year old Cocker Spaniel. This poor baby was chained out in the cold in a filthy, wet area with no shelter or food. She was left to die a horrible death of neglect and agony. Her escape from hell on a chain had to be bought. Enough about her past. This beautiful baby is now safe and being well cared for. She needs to put on quite a bit of weight. She was literally being starved to death. She was severely matted so her coat had to be cut way down but she is an absolutely beautiful white cocker with fawn markings. She is also a very sweet girl who is very well behaved. She is now being fostered very temporarily in MS but will be moved to her foster home near Knoxville in Eastern, TN soon. Rachael will be spayed, health checked, heartworm tested, brought UTD on shots and pending a good health report will then be available for adoption. We will update her bio and post new pictures when she arrives in East TN on Jan. 15.
Update: Jan.15 Rachael has arrived safely from MS to Knoxville(thanks Kyle!) this afternoon and is now in the hands of one of our volunteers. We will update her bio and post new pictures soon. Welcome "home" Rachael :)
Update: Jan.16 Rachael is doing fantastic. We have posted new pictures of her. She has made herself right at home and has settled in with great ease.She is very personable and quite the social butterfly. She gets along very well with other animals and is the perfect little housemate. She is a small Cocker, only weighing 15 lbs., with gorgeous snow white, silky hair and fawn markings. Her eyes and teeth are in very good condition. She is doing well as far as housetraining with no accidents and rides very well in the car. She is not too happy being groomed however she tries her best to be cooperative and is very sweet throughout it all, however she does try to bite the "bad clippers" when doing her face. We find that too precious.......she is a heart stealer, but we seem to say that a lot. We love our babies. Rachael has been heartworm tested(Neg), has all shots including Bordetella and been wormed with Drontal Plus. She has also been groomed and had Frontline Plus applied and received Intercepter HW preventative. Rachael will be spayed Thursday and will then be available for adoption. 300.00 adoption fee.
Update: Jan.16Rachael has been spayed, is doing excellent in her foster home and is now available for adoption. Rachael is now being fostered in Ooltewah, TN.
Update from Rachael's foster mom Judy in TN: Jan.27 Rachael loves soft toys, food, treats and is perpetually happy. Her tiny stub of a tail wags furiously when she sees anyone! New folks moved in next door today and she barked like a Rottweiler in a tiny little body! She loves the fenced in yard, they played with balls and toys in the yard...under supervision of course...with the sun shining, it was a beautiful day! She has had no accidents in the house, she loves life and is learning so much, including learning to jump on the sofa. She sleeps all night and doesn't need to go potty, she is really amazing. How she could have endured all that life has thrown her way, and yet be a perfect little girl!She seems to have no emotional scarring that I can see, she is just happy and loving.
Update Jan. 3:Rachael had a follow up vet visit and exam today. She had gained 16 ounces in 11 days. Her eyes, ears, nose, throat and teeth were excellent. Her skin, musculo-skeletal, heart, respiratory, GI, Urogental, neurological all were normal as well. She has also recovered very well from her spay.

 Lucy is an approximately 1 year old Beagle mix according to the vet. She was found wandering a rural highway and was on the verge of starvation. Lucy is now safe in foster and is doing very well. She's housebroken, gets along very well with the smaller babies and is very gentle, even when playing with the little squeaky toys. She doesn't bark except when she thinks she hears someone at the door or close by outside. She also appears to be very good with larger children and does not appear to "jump up".
She has been taken in for a complete checkup and she's been brought up to date on all shots. She is heartworm negative and has been started on preventative. She had hook worms which she was treated for and has been put on flea preventative. Dr. Warlick had her for several hours at the vet's office and said she was so easy going with everyone and a very good girl no matter what they did in the course of her exam, shots etc. This is a very special girl and will need a wonderful, loving home. She loves to run and play and will need a fenced yard. She also will need additional leash training. Lucy is to be an inside dog only(that goes without saying) and will absolutely not be used to hunt, so please do not apply if you are looking for a "hunting dog". This special girl will be spayed on February 3 and then will be available for adoption to a wonderful, loving home. 75.00 adoption fee will apply. Lucy is being fostered in East Tennessee.
Update: Feb. 3 Lucy has been spayed and is recovering. She also had some growths in her mouth that Dr. Warlick removed and are being sent to pathology. However, she is only approximately 1 year old so the likelihood of them being problematic is highly unlikely. They were removed to avoid any possible problems in the future and are being checked just to make sure they aren't cancerous which as we said is very unlikely. We will update when we get the results back. Lucy will be available for adoption after she recovers from her surgeries. Everyone at the vet's office continues to tell us what a gentle, loving girl she is. She will make someone a fantastic pet. And she just loves to ride in the car!!

 Abrielle is an approximately 3-4 year old, 5.2 lb. Maltese rescued from an Arkansas puppy mill. This is a beautiful Maltese with a lovely face. Her coat had to be cut down due to severe matting but will be beautiful once it grows out again as she has very silky, soft, straight hair. She is exceptionally sweet, rides well in the car and even wants to look out the window to see all the interesting things out there! She is very happy and gets so excited when she sees new things and hears these things called toys "squeak". An inquisitive girl, Abrielle seems to be in awe of her new surroundings. She loves her soft bed and is finding simple things like carpet and couches something really special. She is very receptive to being held and loved. All of these things were previously non-existant to dogs from a puppy mill. To see these babies now "free" to finally enjoy their pampered life after escaping the "mill" is the most wonderful feeling and touches our hearts deeply. This baby is so happy to be in rescue and shows her appreciation in so many ways. Her eyes are perfect, her teeth are strong and clean with all the tartar removed. She too, has all of her teeth. Coming from a puppy mill, she will need leash and house training but is doing well on puppy pad training. She is somewhat shy but so incredily sweet, yet another angel that will steal someone's heart. Abrielle has been spayed, brought UTD on all shots including bordetella, has been tested and is negative for heartworm, ehrlichia and lyme disease and has had a dental. She has been professionally groomed, had Frontline Plus applied, is now on Intercepter HW preventative and has been de-wormed with Drontal Plus. Abrielle's adoption fee is 325.00.
Thank you Connie Thomas for lovingly sponsoring Abrielle!

  Misty is a 9.2 lb, 8 year old Pomeranian. Misty is the supreme diva. She does not eat dog food and requires her own personal chef. Shouldn't every dog have one??? She loves brown rice with chicken and vegetables. She also likes going to the spa and enjoys looking pretty. Getting up in the morning, getting brushed and pampered, then taking a nice drive to do errands is Misty's idea of a good time. Throw in an afternoon nap and a lengthy tummy rub and she's all set(who wouldn't be????). Oh and make sure dinner is prepared on time! Misty prefers to be in your lap or sitting at your side touching you. If she must lower herself to be on the floor, her own fleece blanket on top of a very plush bed is the only thing that will do. She also likes several beds, doesn't everyone have more than one? After all, you never know when you are going to want to lounge and the walk from the living room to the bedroom is such a long way Ms. Misty says! Misty gets along fine with smaller dogs and kitties. She also is relatively quiet but will bark if she hears someone at the door. She is extremely well behaved and is housebroken. Misty thinks she is human, and would be an amazing companion for a retiree. If you want the most incredible and personable baby to spend long, lovely days and nights with, Misty is your girl! She is spayed, heartworm negative and up to date on all shots. Misty's adoption fee is 85.00. She is being fostered in Chattanooga, TN.

 Giorgio is a 2 year old, 12 lb. Chinese Crested powderpuff. He was raised in a puppy mill in Arkansas. His fate in life was to become one of their breeder dogs and to spend a lifetime in doggy hell. However, he caught his front leg in the wires of his tiny cage and in trying to free himself, he severely broke it. The breeder, not willing to take him to a veterinarian and have it repaired due to the expense, dropped him off at a local shelter to be euthanized.
He was rescued instead.
Luckily for Giorgio, his broken leg was a blessing in disguise. It afforded him the freedom and a way out of the puppy mill that many dogs never get. More wonderful news, he has had all of his medical needs addressed, his leg is healed, he is neutered, up to date on all vaccinations and heartworm and lyme disease free. He has progressed greatly body and mind, but he is still a bit nervous around people he doesn't know. Giorgio has done really well becoming socialized and loves sleeping in the bed, watching dinner being prepared, playing with toys and just doing all the things he never could before. He is incredibly gentle, calm, well behaved and sweet with a disposition that will melt your heart in minutes. This beautiful boy is resilient, he is a survivor. He is finally living the beautiful life all dogs deserve. If you feel like you can give Giorgio a loving home, please fill out an application. 100.00 adoption fee. Giorgio is being fostered in Spartanburg, SC. Fenced yard required and additional leash and house training will be necessary.
Thank you Jeanine Meador for lovingly sponsoring Giorgio!
