My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sparky originally came to us as a pup three months ago, we called him Newt.
He was adopted by a family with a range of children. Sparky apparently considered himself one of the kids, then decided he was the boss of the kids. We think Sparky has some wire haired dachshund and perhaps schnauzer in his mix. He is bossy and needs an assertive adopter who will take him to obedience school and practice with him. He likes other dogs. He is only six months old and weighs about 12 lbs.
Sparky's 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.

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.
