My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This sweet old guy was left behind when his family moved their residence. A neighbor was taking him to the Memphis Animal Shelter when a RGDR volunteer intervened. Buster is a good hearted Mr.Magoo, he doesn't see too well but he assumes all is good and doesn't seem to sense danger. He walks right up to other dogs wagging his tail. He is happy to be loved on and held. He sleeps like a rock and is happy to have a soft bed by his human's big bed. Buster is a wonderful companion pet for someone who just wants to know they are not alone and can give him a good life.

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.
