Love Me Tender Animal Rescue

A grass roots non profit animal rescue dedicated to helping stray animals in rural Middle TN. Founded in 1987 by Wanda, Kathy and Tracey Wilkes to help abused and abandoned animals in the rural areas surrounding their family farm.

Love Me Tender Animal Rescue is a permanent home for many special needs and un-adoptable dogs & cats. We also provide loving care, medical attention, spay/neuter & rehabilitation to the rescued pets and work to find good forever homes.

There is no animal control in the mostly poor rural community, and there are few resources to help. Most of the money to help animals comes right out of our pockets, and we depend on donations from fellow animal lovers. In addition to money, we need pet food, bedding, houses, cat litter, kennels, bowls, cleaning detergents, sheets, towels and other items.

Because of limited space & resources, LMTAR cannot take in animals from people needing to relinquish their pets. However, we do provide resources to help people find solutions and solve problems to create a better situation for the animals. In addition, we monitor dogs living on chains; offer donated doghouses and food to the poor, to try and improve their pets quality of life.

We promote low cost spay/neuter programs and believe this is the best solution to curbing the number of unwanted pets. We know we can't save all of the animals, but we make a difference in the lives of many.

LMTAR is a 501 (c) 3 Non Profit Foundation. All donations are tax deductible and as an all-volunteer organization 100% of your contributions go directly to help animals.
