About this Dog
With eyes like honey and a heart made of velvet, Shaya is the kind of puppy you don’t just adopt — you feel her. At just 4 months old and 25 pounds, this gorgeous little lady has already known heartbreak, but you’d never guess it by the way she leans into your touch and follows you like you’re her whole world. Shaya and her three sisters were abandoned along the remote Natchez Trace Parkway in Tennessee — a stretch of highway known for beauty but, heartbreakingly, also for being a dumping ground for unwanted dogs. Left to survive on their own, they were rescued just in time. But despite her rough start, Shaya has emerged with a spirit that is pure light — soft, hopeful, and quietly brave. She’s a lovely blend of German Shepherd and Hound, giving her a striking look and an incredibly balanced personality. She’s got that old-soul calm, with little sparks of puppy playfulness that peek through when the sun is out and kids are laughing nearby. In fact, Shaya comes alive around children — tail wagging, eyes bright, ready to chase a toy or share a moment of joy. What makes her extra special? She’s thoughtful — observing before leaping, but always with love She’s gentle — the kind of pup who melts into your side instead of bouncing off the walls She’s social — great with dogs, respectful of cats, and so sweet with new people and she ADORES CHILDREN! She’s learning fast — crate training, housebreaking, and settling into a rhythm like a little pro Shaya doesn’t bark for attention — she quietly wins hearts. She’s the pup who will curl up at your feet while you read, follow you from room to room with adoration in her eyes, and be the soft comfort beside you on hard days. She’s not looking for just any home — she’s looking for her person. The one who will promise forever and mean it. Shaya is currently being fostered in Tennessee, but she can be on her way to the Northeast on one of our weekend rescue transport vans. Let her be the best part of your every day.

$0.0 is PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, PUPPY SHAYA TENDER HEART’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
