My story

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

Romeo is being returned to us after being in an adoptive home approximately 7 months. He has been around small children and is not good when kids approach him while eating. Romeo was a stray on the streets when we took him in. WE have some photos of the condition he was in when we met him. He is friendly and is doing ok with the other dogs. He is neutered and microchipped and heartworm neg. Romeo has not had a lot of experience with leash walking and is not too keen on going in a crate. He has led the free life!
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.
