Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Approx 3 yrs / 25 lbs. Looking for forever home where he can be an only dog. He's in training for 30 days at Protrain Memphis, where he is learning basic obedience: sit, come, stay, go to place, and walking on leash. He is available to his forever home on April 28 or later.
Gus needs to be an only dog. He is probably part terrier. Full grown and all shots. He has his own crate, bed, leash and a large bag of food to start his new home.
The ideal home for this Real Good Dog will have a secure fenced yard. A solid history of excellent vet care for current or previous pets is required. Preference will be given to applicants who have specific breed experience.
Please visit www.realgoodrescue.com to submit an electronic application if you are interested in adopting this or any other Real Good Dog.
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.
