My story

To apply to adopt, please email littlebigdogrescue.25@gmail.com for an Adoption Application. Officially introducing Sylvie for adoption! Sylvie was the mom to our previous “S” litter! She did an amazing job raising her babies and they have all been adopted and are in their perfect forever homes! Now it’s time for this sweet girl to find her perfect forever home she deserves! Sylvie was originally found as a stray while giving birth to her puppies outside, which is no place for her or her newborn babies! Thankfully she was found and taken to a local shelter in TN where she was kept until it was determined her previous owners were not coming for her. That’s when we stepped in! We took her and her 8 babies into one of our amazing foster homes where they were able to receive the love and care they all needed! Sylvie is a ~2 year old German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois/Dutch Shepherd mix. She has a ton of energy and drive and loves to be engaged in doing something 24/7. Her personality resembles most of a Belgian Malinois so PLEASE do your research before inquiring about adoption! We just want the best for her! Sylvie’s ideal home would be a very active home with someone who has experience with working line/high energy dogs. Sylvie is a very sociable girl but does take a few minutes to warm up to new people. Usually after a few treats and a couple of sniffs she’s your best friend! She loves to gently place her front paws on your stomach and give you hugs She also gets along very well with dogs! Although she can be a little much for some dogs so a meet and greet is required if you have a dog! Sylvie would be a fantastic dog sport prospect! Especially fast cat, agility and Scentwork! She loves to play with a flirt pole, play fetch, use her nose, and enjoys chewing on Benebones around the house! She is completely crate-trained, house-trained, and knows some basic commands! She’s a very smart girl! Sylvie is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated (distemper/parvo, bordetella, rabies), heartworm negative, dewormed, and current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Send us a message if you are interested in this sweet girl and please share to help us find her perfect forever home! Adoption fees are $250 unless otherwise stated.  Senior dog adoption fees are $200.  100% of adoption fees are put back into the rescue so that another lonely and neglected dog can be rescued. We are grateful for your interest. Upon approval, the adoption fee is non-refundable. The fee includes the following: de-worming; heartworm, lymes, ehrlichia and anaplasmosis testing; all vaccinations including rabies; flea and tick treatment, microchipping and spay/neuter. Please contact us if you have questions about our adoptable dogs, we would love to talk to you!  April 8, 2025, 6:09 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Sylvie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
