Tennessee Saint Bernard Rescue
"If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men." -
~St. Francis of Assisi~
Our Featured Pet...
Ava is a large 3 year old rough coat female with a mahogany mantle and a full mask. Ava lived with her previous family since she was a puppy and was well cared for. A divorce changed that, and Ava's owner wanted a better life for her than she was able to give her now. Ava is housebroken, crate trained and well behaved in the house. She knows basic obedience commands and has no destructive tendencies. She is affectionate and loves people, especially children as she was raised with a small child. She gets along well with other dogs and cats. She loves to play, go on walks and car rides. She is spayed, current on shots, heartworm and flea preventative. She will make a great family pet. Please contact Kaye Andre at (901) 730-1962.

Who We Are
Tennessee Saint Bernard Rescue is the Tennessee chapter of the National Saint Bernard Rescue Foundation, Inc., a national non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to the care, rehabilitation and placement of unwanted, homeless, abandoned and abused Saint Bernards. We are the exclusive endorsed rescue organization of the Saint Bernard Club of America (est. 1888). TSBR is run solely by volunteers who put in countless hours, provide foster care and travel great distances to ensure that these gentle giants find loving forever homes.
Our Mission
To act as a shepherd for Saint Bernard dogs and puppies that are without suitable caretakers and are in need of help; to shelter the homeless; to care for and find homes for the unwanted, abandoned, neglected and abused; to feed the hungry; to provide medical services to the sick, injured and lame; to assist in the rescue of those subjected to conditions hazardous to their well-being or to confinement in government or private shelter, who without intervention would be needlessly Euthanize; to provide for the humane disposition of those not sound in mind, body or temperament; to educate the public as to the characteristics of, and proper care for, the breed so as to promote compatible, loving, lasting home/family placements; to educate the public as to responsible pet ownership so as to prevent accidental litters and to prevent inhumane trafficking in puppies and dogs, and so as to promote the most humane manner of disposition of pets at journey's end; to encourage, promote and support research respecting the breed that explores or improves relations between the breed and owners or sheds light on the causes of abandonment, neglect or abuse, or promotes the public's understanding of the special characteristics and attributes of the breed or that is designed to improve the welfare of the breed in any manner. Though the Foundation is established to provide services primarily to the Saint Bernard, the foundation will not refuse services to any dog in need of immediate and caring attention.
