Smyrna ESA and Psychiatric Service Dog Letters
Smyrna began as a farm community and rail stop between Nashville and Chattanooga and is now home to Nissan's assembly plant. When a pet steadies you through anxiety, depression or PTSD, a free online screening reviewed by a Tennessee-licensed clinician is where the letter process starts.

Rails, a Farm Home and an Air Base
Smyrna's depot sat on the line linking Nashville and Chattanooga, which gave the town military importance during the Civil War. The Sam Davis Home, its leading historic site, remembers the Confederate soldier hanged as a spy in November 1863. In 1941 Sewart Air Force Base opened here to train B-17 and B-24 crews, and in 1983 Nissan began building cars at its Smyrna assembly plant.
Lake Coves, Creeks and Greenways
Percy Priest Lake
Portions of the reservoir lie inside the town limits; the Stones River and Stewarts Creek are the main waterways.
Greenway miles
The town counts 10 parks, seven miles of greenway trails, a public golf course and an outdoor water park.

A fenced dog park inside Sharp Springs Park, reached from Espey Drive, with areas for big and small dogs.
