Dripstone Hound Mix Knoxville, TN

Dripstone is the other of the tan girlies in her litter. She is also the shyest and most reserved of her litter, but don't let that stop you she is the biggest sweetheart. She may stay back and watch the fun before joining in but she is always right by your side. She is estimated to be around 10 weeks of age, and was just spayed, where she also received her first round of vaccines. Dripstone has been dewormed and received her first round of prevention so she is ready to find her forever lap to curl up in.

Please Note: Dripstone and her siblings are PUPPIES. They are still working on their potty training, leash skills, and manners. Please make sure this is something you are prepared to commit to. As of now they are using pee pads in between potty breaks. Since they just received their first vaccines we are just now starting leash training.

A momma and her 10 puppies were found on a remote mountain side in Grainger County living in a cave and surviving off trash and wild animal carcass leftovers.
Battling the frigid temperatures and record rainfalls mom lost two of those ten puppies on that mountainside. PAWZ and the property owner had to step in and help.
After a couple days of effort we were able to secure the 8 remaining puppies, against mom’s best efforts at stealing them back.
Unable to catch mother before the snow arrived we were forced off the mountain until mother natures frigid grip was loosened.
During the snowstorm we were able to regroup and come up with a plan to try for mom as soon as we could make it back up the mountain. We hit a high of 30 degrees and we took the opportunity. Shovels and salt melt in hand we worked up the properties 300 yard drive, making it to where mom was bedding down.
Immediately upon getting to the top we started setting up the dog pen to trap her in. Momma watched us the entire time. Enticing her with her puppies in a crate and a big chunk of rotisserie chicken, it wasn’t long before she was in and we had her!
With everyone safely off the mountain, the real work begins with vetting, spay/nueter, and rehab and that’s where we need your help!
