My story

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

Susie is a happy, healthy, one year old, dapple dachshund mix. She weighs around 14#s, is spayed, and up to date on her immunizations. She is house trained (with a doggie door), and gets along with the other dogs in her foster home. She also is relaxed with men, women, and children, at least, those kids who can be calm around a dog. Since she is a young girl, she still enjoys nibbling on a person, but she never bites.Susie enjoys sitting in a chair with folks, and is happy to share the big bed, or to sleep on the floor, in her own bed.
Susie is a well adjusted, easy going small dog, who appreciates love, and care. She will make a delightful addition to any family.

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.
