Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey there I'm Max! I'm a fun little guy with a pretty awesome pair of ears. I have been smiling since the day I left the shelter. My foster family consists of a mom and dad, 2 large canine friends, and a few human children. I'm sure you can tell from my photos that my best friend is one of my foster parents sons. I love lounging with him on the weekends and watching cartoons. We also play fetch in the house and I have my energetic spurts, but after a few throws I'm back on the couch and ready for another nap. I also love taking strolls around the neighborhood and I do great on a leash. I do great letting my foster parents know when it's time to go outside and I don't have accidents in the house. If you are looking for a fun, laid back lil guy with huge ears and a bigger heart, I'm the little dude for you.
All of our pets start their journey in Memphis Tennessee where they remain in loving foster families until they are adopted.
In order to qualify for ALIVE’s program all of the following steps must be met: • You must be at least 24 years of age and be able to provide ALIVE with proof of age. • Any current pets must be up to date on vaccinations, and be spayed/neutered. Exceptions to this will only be considered if proof of a medical explanation is provided. • If you currently rent, you must provide a landlord’s phone number and a copy of your executed lease. • All members of the family living in the home where the animal will be placed must be interviewed. • Allow an ALIVE Rescue Memphis representative into your home for a visit to insure that your home is safe for the potential new dog or cat. • Be able and willing to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care for a pet. •Currently, the requested donation to adopt a dog from ALIVE Rescue Memphis is $300.00. The $300.00 adoption fee includes transport to the Nashville area. •
Our adoption application can be found at http://www.aliverescuememphis.org/adoptionapplication/
Due to the extremely high volume of inquiries we receive, we ask that you submit an application immediately to start the adoption process. We try very hard to include all pertinent information in our bios. We are excited to help you find your new family member. However, ALIVE Rescue Memphis is operated 100% by volunteers. We want to spend our time saving dogs and assisting those adopters who have taken the time to complete an application. Thank you for understanding.
Breed selection is done in conjunction with two local vets and is not to be considered a guarantee but rather a well educated decision from well qualified staff.
