Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Jazzy is a fun-loving, easy-going, all-around wonderful dog. Her favorite game is fetch and she will play for hours, if you'll keep throwing the tennis ball. We are estimating that she is abou 1 year old. She came to the Dixie Pet Underground Railroad after being rescued from a home where she was being kept chained on the porch. Jazzy appears to be a border collie mix, weighs about 40 pounds, loves playing with other dogs, gets along OK with cats, and loves everyone she meets. Jazzy is crate-trained and walks good on a leash. She loves to go for car rides and long walks. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, heart worm negative and ready for a forever family!
REDUCED ADOPTION FEE: Jazzy is an absolutely wonderful dog with no known issues — medical or behavioral. However, we are seeing that our adult dogs are very slow to find forever homes in the last year. Because of this, throughout the months of October and November, we are reducing the adoption fee on our adult dogs to $300. These dogs have received the same veterinary care and will have the same transportation provisions as dogs adopted at the full fee. We are just putting this discount into place to try to help forever homes be able to afford to bring their dogs home.
PLEASE you must click the following link in order to read about our process and to apply for this dog: http://members.petfinder.org/~TN564/IntroductionD.htm
Or e-mail adoptions@dixiepetunderground.org to request an adoption application. Once we receive your complete application, an adoption counselor will call you within 48 hours of receipt of the application. During the adoption interview, the adoption counselor will tell you more about the puppy and our adoption processes, as well as answer any questions you have.
Dogs and puppies are up-to-date on their vaccinations, spayed/neutered, de-wormed, treated for fleas/ticks and heartworm negative before leaving rescue. You will receive complete medical records for your dog or puppy at the time of adoption.
The adoption fee is $450 and covers the cost of all veterinary care and transportation to your area.
Our dogs and puppies are delivered via a USDA-certified van transport and receive an Interstate Health Certificate -- issue by a licensed, accredited veterinarian -- no more than 10 days before the dog or puppy leaves rescue.
All of our dogs and puppies come into rescue from the "death row" of animal shelters in the south, or are owner surrenders or strays who were "pound bound" before coming into rescue. Adopting a dog or puppy from the Dixie Pet Underground Railroad means you are truly part of a partnership to save the life of the dog or puppy that you welcome into your family.
Our dogs and puppies are fostered at our rescue in Tennessee, meaning that it isn't possible to meet the dog or puppy before adoption. Our adoption counselor works with you to do everything possible to ensure that there is a good match between the family and the dog. We have had several hundred dogs adopted using this process and most of the time, it results in happy puppies and happy people.
If for any reason an adoption is not successful, the Dixie Pet Underground Railroad will work with the adopter to find the best possible solution for the dog and the adopting family.
We can provide contact information for adopters in your area who can tell you about their experience partnering with the Underground Railroad to save the life of a dog and make the animal a part of their family. We look forward to hearing from you and working with you to find the right dog for your family!
