Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Well hello there!! My name is Pretzel, and while my name sake is a traditionally salty snack, I couldn't be any more of a sweet boy! According to my foster mom I am the most friendly boy. I love everyone I have ever met, and looooove attention. I have been a super sweet and submissive boy with all of my foster siblings, which include one cat, and other dogs ranging from small to large. My best friend in the whole house is a small, little dog (under 15 lbs) that I just loooove to play with! I do great with the other dogs as well, but sometimes I can be super submissive, and may get intimidated with bigger dogs at first. I've also done great with the kids that I have met, in addition to loving everyone else that I've ever met! I am pretty much just a happy go lucky boy, and anyone will be happy, AND lucky to have me!!!
All of our pets start their journey in Memphis Tennessee where they remain in loving foster families until they are adopted.
In order to qualify for ALIVE’s program all of the following steps must be met: • You must be at least 24 years of age and be able to provide ALIVE with proof of age. • Any current pets must be up to date on vaccinations, and be spayed/neutered. Exceptions to this will only be considered if proof of a medical explanation is provided. • If you currently rent, you must provide a landlord’s phone number and a copy of your executed lease. • All members of the family living in the home where the animal will be placed must be interviewed. • Allow an ALIVE Rescue Memphis representative into your home for a visit to insure that your home is safe for the potential new dog or cat. • Be able and willing to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care for a pet.

Due to the extremely high volume of inquiries we receive, we ask that you submit an application immediately to start the adoption process. We try very hard to include all pertinent information in our bios. We are excited to help you find your new family member. However, ALIVE Rescue Memphis is operated 100% by volunteers. We want to spend our time saving dogs and assisting those adopters who have taken the time to complete an application. Thank you for understanding.
Breed selection is done in conjunction with two local vets and is not to be considered a guarantee but rather a well-educated decision from well qualified staff.
