Thank you for considering one of our wonderful dogs for your family. Our dogs come from all over Madison County Tennessee; from the high kill municipal facility, found as strays, abandoned by owners, surrendered to us by broken hearted families that simply cannot keep the pet because of harsh circumstances.
Our STATDawgs, as we like to call them, receive all of the vet care that they need; routine vaccinations, deworming, blood tests, spay/neuter, and the treatment and/or management of any health issues.
Our STATDawgs are not housed in a shelter type environment. They are each placed in a private home to be fostered. They are given the opportunity to learn proper house manners, basic commands and social skills. They learn to be polite on outings to adoption events, walks, and monthly visits to the local veteran's home where they bring joy to the residents.
We will provide you with a full and honest health record as well as full disclosure about behavior and temperament from the foster.
ADOPTION DISCLAIMER
S.T.A.T. makes a substantial effort to assure that adoptable animals are in good health and of good temperament. It is possible, however, that undetectable illnesses or conditions may be present or incubating at the time of adoption, or that dogs may exhibit behavior that was not observed during their foster period. Therefore, S.T.A.T. does not make any guarantee as to age, behavior, breed, health, temperament or ultimate size of any animal.
My name is Racci, a variation of Raccoon for my pretty masked eyes! When I was rescued from the scary place with the barking dogs in cages, I was pretty sick. I had heartworms, and I was very skinny.
I've been in my foster home for a long time while I got medicine, good food, and lots of love. Now I'm ready for my forever home!
I'm an easy going girl, the only thing I don't understand, really, is how to walk properly on a leash. But I know with practice I will get much better at it.
Tell S.T.A.T that you need a loveable girl like me and I will be your best friend for all of my days!
