Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Gertie is a gorgeous Catahoula female who wandered up to a house and was taken into rescue. Gertie is young and healthy, very friendly, well socialized and a great temperament. She is approximately one year old and weighs 50 pounds. She has a slim body build and beautiful color in her shiny coat of mottled fur. She has a sweet face and seems to be smiling all the time. She is good with the family dog and behaves well around a baby in the family. She is crate trained, walks great on a leash, and rides well in the car. She has been brought up to date on her vaccines, rabies, and spayed. She also tested heartworm negative and is on preventive as well as flea/tick preventive. If you would like to meet Gertie or know more about her, her foster mom is happy to talk to you about her. She will make a wonderful addition to any family looking for their first dog or as a companion for another canine friend. Adoption fee is 150
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.

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.
