Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Woody was recently returned to us after he became too rough with a smaller dog with failing health in his previous household. Woody is a Yorkie mix and he is ALL Terrier! Like most terriers, his favorite things to do are play with toys, run around outside with other dog friends, and most importantly - keep guard over the house and bark at those pesky outside squirrels and cats! Woody is about 1.5 years old so he still has a lot of energy. He would love a home with another dog to play with. We have found that Woody does better with dogs that are bigger than him. He is only about 12 lbs but tends to be alpha over very small dogs. Woody does well with children and walks really well on a leash. The first thing you will notice about him though is his good looks! He is SUPER adorable and has very expressive eyes. This dog is so cute he could probably be on television or some sort of pet food commercial (‘cause he loves to eat!). Woody is already neutered, up to date on all shots, and heartworm negative so he is ready to go home with you today! His adoption fee is $200
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.
