Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Jovi is a very handsome wheaten terrier mix guy. He now weighs about 35 lbs and is approx 2 years old. Jovi has come a long way from running loose on the streets of Helena,AR. Once he got to Memphis, he proved himself to be an escape artist. After a few months of dealing with a dog who ran away, finally Jovi settled into a household with other dogs and a shady yard that he has ample places to hide in, hang out with another dog and move about as he pleases. Jovi is neutered, microchipped, treated for heart worms and has had pro heart vaccine. He desperately needs to move on to his permanent home. His adoption fee is $150
We adopt dogs from Memphis Animal Shelter when we can. The shelter has an 83% euthanasia rate, one of the highest in the country. Unfortunately, any dog coming from Memphis Animal Shelter, and most other shelters for that matter, will have been in contact with contagious illness. Even though the dogs have been in foster care and appear to be in good health, they may become stressed when changing environments and exhibit signs and symptoms of illness. If you have other pets, they need to be up to date on vaccines before bringing a shelter dog into your home. We will take the adopted animal back, but we are not responsible for your other animal's vet care. We always disclose where the dogs have come from. Please ask for any information about the dogs and exercise due caution if you have immunocompromised animals.
