  As volunteers at the NHA, there are many, many pets who touch our hearts. But there aren’t that many who touch our hearts and literally leap out of the cage! Tash, fka Garfield, did just that – leapt right into my husband’s arms and we knew he was ours. He was the dictionary ...Read More...

We adopted 1-year-old Rosey (formerly Rochelle) in June of 2011. Originally labeled as a "corgi mix," our vet confirmed that she is probably a basenji mix, maybe with some whippet or chow, due to her dark tongue. Rosey loves to run in our back yard, chase birds, play with our teenage son, ...Read More...

My boyfriend and I moved to Nashville in August 2010 with plans of adopting a cat once we got settled in. Just a couple weeks later, on our first trip to the NHA we fell in love with a 2 month old kitten that we named Mikko (formerly Cletus). Mikko has been the best cat we could ever ask for! He's ...Read More...

We adopted Bug on February 20th. She is the older Shih Tzu that was from the puppymill that was busted at the beginning of February. Well, we named her Bug or Bugaboo. It fits her personality and she now recognizes when we call her name. She is not nearly as skiddish as she was and is actually bonding ...Read More...

My family was looking to adopt a cat to make our family whole. We came to the Nashville Humane Association hoping to find a match for us. After walking up and down the aisle in the cat room (about 20 times), talking to each cat, and even holding a few, my eye kept drifting back to this little gray sweetie. ...Read More...

We adopted Biscuit just two short months ago, but it seems like she has been a member of the family for years. My husband and 7 year old daughter stopped by the NHA without the the intention of adopting a dog that day.

I wanted to send a picture of the little guy we adopted in April, so everyone could see what he looks like a little older! His name was Sam, but now he goes by Brutus.

I found Harley (formerly Shelby) at the Humane Assoc. in February 2010. I had originally gone in to volunteer at the shelter and decided to adopt a dog. I had looked at almost every dog in the place before I found her. She was quiet and sweet. She followed me into the play area and immediately stole ...Read More...

Hi, my name is Jill and I adopted 'Benji' from the NHA with my brother about a month ago. We weren't really looking for a new pet, but we enjoy going to the shelter just to spend some time with all the animals. We looked at many dogs, and took them out one at a time. Benji was one of the ...Read More...

I'd like to thank Nashville Humane for helping me find two loving and adorable cats to keep me and my sister company. My sister and I have renamed Mitten, Thomas, and Pitts, Alexander ("Alex").

My husband and I adopted Foster at the first of June, and right from the start, we knew that he was the perfect dog for us. He has settled in very nicely with the family.

I met and adopted Miller in the spring of 2009. He stood out because he was so gentle. Soon he was a welcome addition to my home. I kept his original name because he seemed to like it. He certainly is well behaved and probably missed from his former home. Miller knows how to have fun and is a joy to ...Read More...
