Here's what the humans have to say about me:
RESCUE ONLY
Jupiter was picked up on Nashville Hwy on 8-17-17. He is a grumpy little man full of life and energy. He lets us pet him on the head, but growls the entire time you are doing so. He does so without even offering to bite, just merely giving a warning and letting you know he is in charge. He has been fully vetted and is heartworm negative and microchipped. He occasionally will have a cough, but it is not related to heartworm or kennel cough. Possibly other heart irritations or even a trachea issue. He is still available only to rescue for a $70 fully vetted pull fee until he gets better with being handled.

Follow us on facebook under Lewisburg Animal Shelter Volunteers to see more candid photos of the dogs in our photo Albums. The current adoption fee is $75 which includes the dogs spay or neuter and Rabies vaccination at a local vet, and covers the distemper/parvo vaccine and bordetella vaccine and dewormings it receives here at our shelter. No dog will leave the shelter to an adopter without being vetted first.
By TN state law stray dogs are held for 3 days so they can be found by their owners before being put up for adoption or rescue. A dog found as a stray wearing a collar is held for 5 days before it is put up for adoption or rescue. Our shelter is a first come first adopt/rescue facility.There are no holds placed on dogs for potential adopters/rescue, however if a party is interested in a particular dog before it becomes available they may send an inquiry to susan.ragsdale@lewisburgtn.gov and those inquiries will be kept track of in order of received once dog becomes available. Adopters/rescues will be notified what order they are in in regards to each dog. They are available at 8am on the day they are available. Non vetted dogs will have an appointment scheduled and will be available for pickup for adoption the day after their surgery. Approved rescues may pull a dog and have vetted at their own expense once available to the public.
