My story

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

Jake was dropped out of an old truck in front of his foster parent's property.
who already had a couple of labs in a pen, so we suppose his owner thought they
might take care of him. The vet said he probably was gun shy and that was
probably the reason for the drop off. Jake is a big ole sweetheart, weighing in
at around 90 pounds, that loves attention. He get along well with dogs, cats
and kids. He is a friendly dog, good with other dogs, and children. We are
estimating his birthday as 12/01/2006. Jake is a laid back dog that loves to be
petted and have his belly rubbed. Jake is neutered, up-to-date on all of his
vaccinations, and heart worm negative. Jake is going to make a great companion
for someone looking for a pal to hang out with and go on hikes in the woods
with. All he is lacking is a home! He has been patiently waiting in foster
care, but would really like to have a place of his own to call home. We are
listing Jake at a reduced fee in hopes that we can find this sweet doggie his
forever home soon. This means his adoption fee is discounted to $300. If you
think Jake might be the right dog for your family, please email today for an
adoption application!

Please, you MUST visit the following link BEFORE emailing for further information. If you'd like to find out more information about our adoption procedure or to apply for this dog visit http://www.poochesonthemove.net/dixie-pet-underground.html

Or e-mail adoptions@dixiepetunderground.org to request an adoption application, or visit our website at www.dixiepetunderground.org. 

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!
