Meet Ashley (aka Ashe)- a just over 2 year old, 40 pound, Thai Ridgeback/Terrier mix gal.

Ashley hails from Mississippi. The poor girl had been very malnourished when she came to us. But after a short time in foster she was healthy, happy and thriving!
Her foster used to say that Ashley has the softest fur have ever felt - it is like velvet. And she is gorgeous too - with the most striking green eyes (her pictures don't do her justice).

Her foster mom shares "This gal affectionate and playful and a total LOVE BUG!!! She is sweet and eager to please, and loves belly rubs and attention. And she is a world class snuggler too. She does well with other dogs and also does well with older kids. She knows the commands sit and no, and is working on stay as well. She likes to learn so we know with some training she will have even more commands she masters. She is about 95% housebroken (and understands how to use pee pads). Her prior living situation her person was out a lot of hours so left pee pads for her as well - but with a family that can take her out on a schedule she will be 100% in no time at all. She loves going for walks and is great on a leash - she will pull when she sees a squirrel or bunny because she likes to say hello to everyone and everything on her walks. But we are working on that. And she is great in the car and loves car rides so you can take this gal anywhere. She loves stuffies, rawhide, pb kongs, day camp, and wrestling with her sister. She is sweet, cuddly, and goofy. She is cautious but friendly around new people. Once you are allowed into her circle of trust, she lets her guard down and is always at your side wanting scratches, cuddles kisses and love. She's medium energy, gets the zoomies at times but loves to curl up and nap as well. Ashe is going to make a wonderful companion!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
