Adoption Donation is required at time of adoption.
Dogs: $125
Puppies: $145 (includes all puppy shots and rabies)
We require a $25.00 refundable spay/neuter deposit for puppies that are too young for surgery.

Most of the available dogs seen on this page are in GAPR foster homes, but we do post some dogs as a courtesy to other people. Please be aware that if you do adopt a dog that is a courtesy posting & was not already in a GAPR foster home and it does not work out, you will have to keep that dog in your home until a foster home opening occurs. Foster home openings are very scarce, so please be aware of this. The dog will have to go through the same approval process and be adopted through us again.
GINGER
Ginger is a young dog, probably between 1-2, playful, and has obviously formed a primary bond with people, rather than another dog. She is currently living in our garage, (which is cooler than outside!), and hasn't chewed anything or had any accidents. She is the sweetest dog, she loves to lick and is good with our kids. She is not aggressive around other dogs, but a little hesitant--she can be talked through it though. She really is a wonderful dog, we would keep her if we could. She has been heartworm tested and is heartworm free. She also has had a set of shots and is scheduled for spay.

CHEVY
Hi, My name is Chevy, and I was born in Millington by a breeder who because I was the runt did not want me.... I know this because I ran away to look for food, and the lady who found me thought I was lost. She took me back and they said the did not want me I was to small. :-( She couldn't keep me because she already had a house full, so she called my new foster Mommy from Guardian Angel Pet Rescue and she had room for me, just not permanently! I would really like to find my forever home. I am Chocolate with white chest and am only 10 weeks old. I can already sit and stay, I know where my kennel is, and don't potty in her house. My mommy is great, but she would love for me to find a FOREVER home. If interested please e-mail her. I want to meet you!!

Dakota
Dakota is very sweet. She is now about a year and a half old. She has all her vaccinations, is on heartworm and flea prevention, and she has been spayed. She graduated from PetSmart obedience training and is crate-trained. She is small for a Lab, weighing 40 lbs. She would make a great dog for someone who has a big yard because she loves to run and play. She loves to play with my other two dogs, but she gets a little rough with the smaller one. She gets along with the cats, but plays a little too rough with them as well.

ALEXANDER
Alexander is a 26 lb. male soft wire-haired perhaps Pug mix - perhaps Brussels Griffon. He has a great temperament and is happy all the time. He gets along with other dogs and loves all people. He is heartworm negative, neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and rabies. I would of course always crate a new dog in a new environment, but he is not crated in my house and does fine. This fine young man would do well in any family.

HEIDI
Heidi is a very sweet and loving young adult female Chow mix. She is housebroken and is not destructive at all. She is laidback and very low maintenance. She does have medium length hair and will need to be brushed to keep the undercoat maintained. She does have a flea allergy, so you will need to make sure her environment is kept flea free. This sweetheart deserved a wonderful, unstressful home. If you are looking for the perfect dog, here she is.

FONDUE
Fondue is an adorable 7-8 month old female Dachshund mix. She is about 12 lbs of muscular steel. She is sweet and affectionate with people. Fondue is very playful, but I would suggest if there is another dog in the home, it be a medium to large dog. She is too rough with smaller dogs. She is up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed and on heartworm preventative. Fondue will be best with an active family - no couch potatoes.

I am neutered, heartworm negative, up-to-date on all my shots, and on flea and heartworm prevention. I am also potty, crate, and doggie door trained.

I love balls and playing outside. As you can see from these pictures, I also enjoy relaxing on the couch, chewing on my bones, and watching TV with my foster mommy and daddy. I like my foster home, but there are a lot of other dogs here and I don’t get a lot of one-on-one time with my humans here like I’d like. Please consider adopting me. I am a really good boy and ready for a home with people of my very own.

| CHAMP - ADOPTED! |
||
Champ is a gorgeous 6 - 7 month old male black lab. He was left at Pope Animal Hospital over a month ago for an overnight stay and a bath and that is where he remains. His owners never came back to get him. So, their consciences are clear, but what happens to an abandoned dog? Obviously the vet clinic cannot keep Champ forever. They have to wait for a set amount of time before they can file abandonment papers. Then if nobody offers to take him, he has to go to Memphis Animal Shelter. That is usually the kiss of death for a black lab as about every other cage has a black lab in it. Well, Champ's time is up. We need to find a forever home for Champ very quickly - or a foster home at the least. He has a great temperament. He has had no problems with any of the staff or dogs at the vet clinic. Please consider Champ if you are looking for a companion for your family.

JHETT -Adopted!
Jhett is a 4 and a half month old female black lab mix. She was found out on a country road - more than likely dumped as we all know the place to dump animals is out in the courtry. She was found by a Good Samaritan who said she was just not going to let him get away. Jhett has not had an accident in the house and is very well mannered. She likes other dogs and has not met a stranger. She has had her first shots and is on the schedule to be spayed. This little girl is a keeper. She will make a wonderful new addition to any family.

BUDDY - ADOPTED!
Buddy is a fabulous dog; he is incredible around small children, and gets along with other dogs and even cats! He is the perfect buddy for kids - if they want to play, Buddy wants to play. If they want to take a nap, Buddy is content to curl up right beside them and nap too! (And yes, he does prefer children to grown ups. No puppy nipping or jumping from this little guy!) We are incredibly impressed with his manners, especially considering his rough start in life. He and his brother were rescued from a 20 foot deep storm drainage ditch, where they would have frozen that night. He knows his basic commands, like "sit" and "down". He is housebroken, crate trained, heartwork negative and up to date on all his vaccinations.He is about 8 months old, and weighs about 35 pounds.
If you are looking for a great dog for your family, you have found him!

Proud Mom, Lorelei
Lorelei and her Puppies
On March 27th, Lorelei, a Jack Russell Terrier, went into labor and delivered Early Bird at 9:30 PM. By three in the morning, Lorelei had not had any more pups. Needless to say, I was concerned. At four, she delivered the second and by five, she had finally had the rest! Quite a big litter for such a small mom! So, "Early Bird", has a different birthday from his siblings. The puppies all just turned six weeks old, and they are ready to go to their forever families now. Lorelei is also up for adoption. She weighs between 15 and 20 pounds and is quite loving.

EVIE - ADOPTED
Evie is a gray/white female Shih Tzu, approximately 3-4 years old. She weighs 11 lbs and the picture does not do her justice. Evie is a former "backyard puppy mill" breeder dog. When she came to stay with me she was so weak she could hardly stand and walk. She almost appeared shellshocked. She was severly malnurished and emotionally broken. She has since recovered. Evie has a great appetite (becomes quite impatient when I'm preparing meals), and has gained much needed weight. She is payed, heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. and is up to day on vaccinations. Her housetraining is ongoing, but we're about 98% there. Not bad for a dog who spent her whole life in a cage! Evie is definitely a couch pototoe, laying around most of the time with her little stuffed doggy. She has recently started to interact with the other foster dogs. This adorable little girl needs a nice, calm home full of love to spend the rest of her life.

They are a little too young to have been separated from their mother, but the owner of mom and dad had already given a couple away and these sweethearts were on the way to the shelter.

CHESTER

Chester is a 1 year 9 month old Labrador Retriever. I am unable to keep him due to circumstances beyond my control. He is very loving, but very energetic. He loves to play and loves people. He has not been around other pets so I am not sure how he would behave. He is an outside dog, and has been since he was brought home. He needs an owner willing to work and be patient with him on his training. He will need a fenced in yard and possibly a home with a large yard. Chester is up to date on his shots. I have the vet records. He is on heart guard/flea preventative.

| Kramer (Adopted) | Elaine | Jerry (Adopted) |
Hello everyone! I'm Elaine and these are my two girls Jerry & Kramer. Why do they have boy names? WELL... our foster dad incorrectly identified them as boys when we were rescued. Of course when you adopt them you can change them to whatever you'd like.
I am a beagle, I am about 27 pounds, and I am... wait, I don't know how old I am! I have only one good eye on account of an old injury I received prior to my rescue. I am very skittish, especially around people I don't know. I am crate trained and am working on being house trained. I am warming up to the idea of walking on a leash and riding in a car. My babies are beagle mixes and are about 8 weeks old. Kramer is the larger of the two and Jerry, the one with all the spots, has a crooked tail. I gave birth to my girls and made a nest for them in the backyard of my foster dad's elderly neighbor. Our foster dad took us in, and good thing he did because it rained for two days after we were rescued. If you think you might be interested in opening up your home and your heart please contact the good folks at Guardian Angel Pet Rescue about filling out an adoption application. Trust me, you won't regret it.

RUDY
Age: 2 years, 4 months
Weight: 38 lbs
Breed: mixed
Likes: running, playing with his soccer ball, chewing on rawhide
bones, belly rubs, sleeping in bed
Dislikes: the mailman, sharing his toys (only until he has chewed on
them first - then its ok!)
Rudy is a very lovable and happy dog. He is 100% housebroken and very
friendly. He answers to his name and knows how to sit on command. He
loves to show how happy he is by wagging his tail and licking anyone's
face that pets him. He loves to get in the yard and run - especially
when someone is kicking his soccer ball or playing fetch with one of
his toys. He gets along well with other dogs, and likes to wrestle
and chase in the yard. He does not eat too much and would make a
great companion for someone living alone, with the means to walk him a
couple times a day or a yard (He is still young and full of energy,
so he needs to be able to exercise!!) He is a great guard dog and
very protective of his home and family, but still makes friends with
everyone with a proper introduction.

Very much a food driven dog, but not food aggressive. She should be fine with kids.

We cannot afford the boarding. He is a very sweet guy, full of energy. Valentine weighs about 40 lbs, is heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccinations and neutered.

He has never shown any aggression of any kind and is great with people and I would be surprised if not okay with children although I would say toddlers might freak him out a bit. Ronny would make a great family companion. He would be fine as an only dog.

Little Lady - Adopted!
I was abandoned out in Shelby Forest by my, I thought, loving owners. I had no food or water and did not know what a car or truck was. I weight 31 lbs and am approximately 1 yr. My new foster parents took me in and gave me a home to share and the Guardian Angels are trying to find me a family of my own. I love people and interact well with other dogs. I do not bark uncontrollably, I just need a little love and friendship. I spin for my food and my foster mom is teaching me to sit and stay. I am a very quick learner. My new parents are trying to spend as much time as they can to help me learn the dos and don’ts of the doggie world.
I am a very good girl and just need a little time spent with me and I will love you for the rest of my life. Please help me find a home.
Loving you ,
“Little Lady”

RUDY - ADOPTED!
Rudy is a beautiful pomeranian, jet black with white chest, who apparently wandered into someone's yard when the gate was opened, then
closed without realizing he was there until much later. He didn't appear to be malnourished or have any signs of abuse or neglect; unfortunately also didn't have a collar or microchip. He is very friendly and sweet natured, loves to cuddle on couch and bed, loves to
run and play and roughhouse with my other dogs. I don't have cats, so can't comment on that. He's totally housebroken and not at all
destructive. Rudy is an absolute love muffin and needs a forever home with someone who will keep him safe and love and cherish him as he
deserves. He has been neutered, is up to date on vaccinations, and is heartworm negative and on preventative.

Amanda - ADOPTED!
“Amanda” means “she who must be loved” or “precious one”. I DO need love and I AM precious, that’s why my foster mom and dad call me “Mandie”. My neighbor called the guardian angels because my first family moved away and left me in the backyard with no food, water, or doghouse. I was really cold and lonely at night, but then my angels came to get me! I got good food, fresh water, lots of sleep, a little medicine, and I am feeling so much better! My foster mommy says I am the sweetest dog she’s ever known and laughs at me when I trip over my big puppy feet. I am about three months old, going through all my puppy shots, and have been spayed. I love to play with all my foster brothers and sisters. I am crate trained and doing well with potty training. I am a real snuggler. Let me prove to you just how “precious” I really am, just like my name!

I have had my first round of shots and am almost house trained. I'm part lab and maybe collie of some sort so I will get kind of big. Right now I weigh about 15 lbs and growing. Please take me home with you to my forever home.

BEAU
15 inches tall and 12 pounds
Beau is a Rat Terrier mix, about a year old. He loves everyone. Beau is heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccinations and neutered. He is crate-trained and 98% housebroken. Beau would be great in a home with another small or medium dog to play with. His right front leg was broken sometime in his early life, and it wasn't set...so he has a crooked leg and a limp...but it doesn't slow him down one bit! He's very playful and loves his chew toys. He can be a little possessive of his toys, his person, and his space when he is sleeping...he'll let you know, but has never bitten anyone. He would make a great companion and needs to find his forever home.

Lulu - Adopted!
Little Lulu was the love of my mother's life. She was a rescue when only a puppy, being left on the mean Memphis streets. At first, momma didn't want a dog... she was certain she would find the rightful owner of this puppy. As the days passed and the owner was not located, my mom couldn't help but fall in love with the pup's soulful brown eyes and sweet temperament. My mom soon couldn't imagine parting with Lulu and often called to tell me about the latest cute thing Lulu had done.
In December, my mom passed away so Lulu is searching for another sweet person to call her very own. This person would need to be okay with having a little dog that loves to be close to them, is lazy and doesn't care for much exercise, is house trained, can get along with other dogs/cats as long as she has her own food bowl, and still likes to play with toys. Lulu has transitioned well from being the "only child" to living with a three year old little girl.
Lulu is in good health and has been spayed. She is still full of life and is certain to bring much joy to anyone willing to open their hearts and home to her. Lulu doesn't bark a lot other than when a doorbell is rang, knocks at the door, or a strange dog appears on television.

Emmett -Adopted!
Emmett is about 15 weeks old and is a true survivor. He was one of 10
puppies, of which only 3 survived due to severe malnutrition. The
mother and 7 puppies died because the owner neglected the mother and
thought she could feed all of her babies with very little food and no
clean water.
Emmett came to us severely dehydrated and was unable to
even drink water the first night we had him. We syringed water into
his mouth every little while during the first night and the next day
he was able to drink by himself and eat a little softened dog food.
His tummy was severely distended. We treated him for worms and within
2 weeks he was bouncing around like all little puppies.
Emmett is working on potty training, and uses a puppy pad in case he doesn't make it outside. He is very lovable and now very strong. Emmett loves to play and gets along with all other sized dogs and is fine with cats.
He travels in the car well and loves to be cuddled. His temperament
does not show any signs of the neglect he suffered early on. Emmett
is a brindle color with a beautiful black mask that looks like velvet. He is not beautiful, but he is so darn cute.

Please make reservations for these five adorable puppies. The mom, Grace, is about 35lbs and looks like a small Flat Coat Retriever. I have no idea who the dads were. Mom was pregnant at the time of rescue. There are four females and one male. They are four weeks old and cannot leave mom for at least another three weeks. They are starting to eat some dry food. They appear to be very healthy and active. They have been dewormed twice and will received first set of shots in two weeks. Would make great family pets!

Harley |
||
Harley is a four year old Corgi mix that we adopted out two years ago. His owner died about a year and a half ago and his wife almost returned him then as she was a little overwhelmed. But she continued to take care of him until she had to move in with her daughter and she could not take Harley. She found a home for him with a friend, but that fell through also. So, Harley was returned a couple of weeks ago to his former foster home. They were happy to have him back as he is a great little guy with a wonderful personality. Sunday morning about 4:30 am he woke his foster parents up screaming in pain. He could not move his back. They rushed him to Animal Emergency where it was determined he had a ruptured disc. The emergency room bill alone was about $800.00 to keep him stable until Monday morning. He was taken to Med Vets this morning and had to have emergency surgery. The estimated cost of the surgery is $3500.00. We have just had a rash of medical bill for the past few months and really are in need of donations for the medical bills on Harley. The second picture is right after he was taken off the IV's at the emergency clinic. He cannot move and look at how happy he is. We have to try to save this little guy!
Update on Harley (in wheelchair) as of May 27, 2009. Harley has completed his physical therapy with Dr. McCutcheon. He is to come back for checkups periodically. We have a foster couple who have been a particular blessing to us for taking in handicapped dogs and they have taken Harley into their home. They absolutely love him and have changed their life around to accommodate him and his special needs. Thanks Alice and Jim. From: Swearingen, Jen His new cart came in today and so she said they will be getting him in that.
She said it will allow him to go outside and run and play better with the
other dogs. She said he likes to go out and run with the other dogs, but
tends to tip himself over. The new cart will be better to allow him to play.

Date: Fri, Sep 19, 2008 at 2:13 PM
Update on Harley Monday, September 15, 2008 1:34:47 PM We have had some very generous donations to help with the cost of surgery and hospital stay, but we are still so very far from paying it off. Any help that you can give us is very much needed and appreciated. |

 |
||
Update: Thursday, August 28 Harley underwent his emergency surgery on Monday, August 25th. Currently, Harley is still at Med Vets and has not yet regained feeling or movement in his back legs and they are still needing to express his bladder for him. The doctors are monitoring him and watching for any change. They have said that sometimes it can take longer for them to regain movement and feeling so we are still hopeful everyday that he will show signs of improvement on those. Other than that thought, Harley is in good spirits and eating well. The nurses have had him in a harness that supports his back and hind legs but allows him to walk with his front so he can move around and feel a little more independent. Please continue to keep Harley in your thoughts and prayers and will post updates as they come along. Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form. |

FITZ Posted 08/13/2008 Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form BABER - Adopted! Baber is a 5-month old female terrier that was found by a Good Samaritan in Rodney Baber Park. This sweet 22 lb. girl has been carrying around an umbilical hernia since birth which is now the size of a cantaloupe. Guardian Angel Pet Rescue has had the hernia assessed by several veterinarians and it has been found that only a Board Certified Veterinarian can handle this surgery. The surgery calls for mesh to be used in repairing the hernia. The cost of the surgery will be $2000.00. Update Monday, August 25, 2008 12:12:36 AM Baber is doing very well. She really wants to run, play, jump onto the
furniture and romp with the other dogs in her foster home. She has to stay
in her crate to keep her quiet. Baber is walked on a leash to potty, so she
does not start running and jumping. She will be on pain medicine & antibiotics until the 28th. She is completely wrapped around her belly and
onto her back. This not only protects her incision site, but also helps
everything heal the way it should. The foster family said she is a real
love bug. Update Sunday 8/17/08 10:30 a.m. No idea at this time when she can leave the clinic. Update Friday 8/15/2008 1:15 p.m. Dr. Royal just called, it is 1:15 p.m. Friday and the surgery on Baber is
almost complete. She tolerated the surgery well. They were able to close
the opening up with moving some muscle around and no mesh. She will have a
drain with a suction bulb to keep fluid from building up in the bag which
held all of her insides. Depending on how soon the suction drain can be
removed she should be home by Tuesday or Wednesday. Then she must be keep
quiet for a couple of weeks after that. She will be sore because her
abdominal cavity did not grow to hold all the organs and tissue which was in
the hanging bag. It was a little tight, but he said it will stretch as she
grows. Posted 08/14/2008 Click here to fill out an electronic adoption form. BENITO

Love Bug Photo by Renee Scott Photography Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form. CRUMP SISTERS We are the Crump sisters. We came from Crump Boulevard where they also found our mother Annie and our nine half siblings from second marriage. I am the lovely tan sister on your left with the white on my muzzle and feet. I am Ms. Spot. My sister on the right with the lovely red hair is Ms. Wayne. When our Guardian Angels came to rescue us we were living outdoors and had had very little human contact much less any love and affection. We were terribly scared of these wonderful angels that picked us up, but we could tell that they were there to help us. We were very skittish and are still somewhat shy even though we love our foster mom and foster siblings very much. It is still hard for us to trust the touch of a human hand even though it is oh so wonderful!!! Even though we had never set foot in a house, we have never had an accident. We are crate-trained and housebroken. We do not tear anything up, but we might get into mischief if left uncrated while you are not home - especially my sister. Nothing major. We are heartworm negative, spayed and up-to-date on everything. We are very playful and love to play. My sister and I are very bonded as we have never been apart, but I know we may not get adopted together. I think we would be alright if our new family had another dog. With a little patience we would make a loving companion for anyone. Photo by Renee Scott Photography Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form.
~Picture posted 07/30/07~ BEAR This handsome three and a half year old cattle dog mix is Bear. He is the most charming, friendly guy you will ever meet. He is up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and neutered. He is totally housebroken and is never crated. The only thing you have to remember is to keep your blinds up enough for him to see you come and go. He will make a spot if you don't leave one. Bear is good with most other animals, but I would probably not leave him unattended with a tiny dog. He is fine with some, but some he is not. He has been at his foster home for almost three years because the older son was very bonded to him. Hopes were that he would be able to take him when moving out, but that was not the case. He likes males, females and children. Loves to go for rides and walks. Would make a great running companion. ~fostered by Debbie Homas~ Photo by Renee Scott Photography Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form.

Freckles can't wait for her foster family's children to get home from school in the afternoons so they can run and play with her. Speck has a small scar on his left cheek from previous living conditions, but his foster family says it gives him character. He is a little cautious of newcomers, but warms up quickly. Speck has a lot of energy and loves to play. Brutus is a handsome boy with a very expressive face. He is playful, curious and loves children. Although all three boys love their foster family, they are ready to get settled in a forever home. They are up-to-date on shots, neutered and on heartworm preventative.

Posted 05-07-08 ROCKY Rat Terrier mix 20 pounds 16 inches at shoulders SENIOR DOG WHO NEEDS HIS OWN FAMILY. He is about 8 - 10 years old. Rocky is a wonderful dog and he came to us with a sad story. He was attacked by a dog, then his owners took him to a boarding kennel and never came back for him. Rocky came into the rescue after he had lived at the kennel for 4 months. He has been the perfect dog. Rarely does he jump on you and when he does it is so gentle. Normally he will just walk up to you, sit in front of you and look into your face with those sad brown eyes. He is the perfect dog, housetrained, does not chew or tear up anything. He loves to sleep in a small cat bed in the office of his foster Mom. Rocky gets along with cats and other dogs. He is good with children also. IF you want a dog to retrieve, chase balls and play Frisbee, this is NOT the one for you. He is more than glad to share the sofa or bed with you, but if necessary he will sleep on the floor in his own bed. He is ready to go into his forever home. Photo by Renee Scott Photography

Posted 05-01-08 Honey Breed: Puggle (beagle and pug) Approximate age: 18 mos Height at shoulder: 16 inches Weight: 20# Spayed or neutered - spayed On heartworm preventative - yes Vaccines – UTD Crate trained - Yes Housetrained - Yes Honey was found running in a shopping center parking lot by Good Samaritan. Because of the Good Sam’s situation she was moved into a friend’s home, and then we were asked to take her. Poor honey has been in 5 different places. She is really friendly and very loving. Honey seems to have been abused by a man. She is fine in my home, and when we are around other people she is fine with men. It seems when she is in a home without me and the man is tall she becomes protective of the lady of the house. She will be a great pet, if you will take the time for her to trust the men in her life. I feel if the men she is around are not 6 feet or taller she will be fine.

She sleeps on a rug beside the bed. She is housebroken and crate-trained. She plays with other dogs but would not mind being an only dog.

Sampson Age: 9 months old. Height: Approx. 15 inches high Weight: 20 # Altered: Neutered Heartworm Preventative: yes Sampson is a very sweet and gentle dog. He is housebroken. He sometimes sleeps on the bed but most times he sleeps on a big dog bed in the bedroom. He lives with a lady who has multiple species of pets and is not bothered by any of them. Sampson likes rawhides but can't have any here with all the other dogs. He would love to live where he could have his very own toys. Sampson has no special requirements except love. Fostered by: Carmen Photo by Renee Scott Photography ALEX A Good Samaritan found Alex and his 7 brothers and sisters in a recycle bin in the Wolf River Bottoms. It was in December of 2004 and fortunately for them it had been warm since they were only about 6 weeks old. They were fostered with the family and most have found their forever home. Sadly, Alex is still looking for his forever home. He is about 4 years old, weighs 55 pounds, is 22 inches tall, housetrained, neutered, current on shots and on heartworm preventative. His most unique characteristic would have to be his beautiful eyes; they match his fur. Alex is a great dog, he loves to ride in the car, play with people, other dogs and even children. He gets a silly grin on his face which makes you laugh. Alex is excited to see you when you come home but soon settles down and will be a couch potato while you watch TV. If you are looking for a unique, young adult dog then you have found him! Photo by Renee Scott Photography Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form.

We stopped and tried to get her to come to us but she ran into the woods and we could not find her. We went and bought some plain McDonalds cheeseburgers and came back and spread pieces of the burgers around the edge of the woods where she went but she did not come out. We went home that night and prayed the little dog made it through the night. The high on Saturday was 25 degrees F and the Low was 13. We went back to the same area on Sunday afternoon and she was still there sitting at the edge of the woods. She ran from us again and went into a water drain off pipe that ran under the North side of the interstate out into the median. My daughter and her boyfriend went out into the median and took the grill off of the drain and my oldest son crawled on his belly through the entire drain pipe under the interstate to flush her out in the median where my daughter was waiting to catch her. She was terrified and bit my daughter pretty bad but she held on. She tried to bite the rest of us when we tried to pick her up to put her in the truck. But once in the truck she calmed down and she has been a calm sweet girl ever since. She has tested positive for Heartworms, needs several teeth surgically removed and needs to be spayed. She is on the road to recovery and learning to live in a house and have good manners. http://www.dogster.com/dogs/705454 Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form.

Hi! My name is Zoey. I am from the island of Guam. My parents adopted me from a local shelter there and brought me back to the United States. I have been living in Memphis for the past two years. I just turned three in October. I have all of my shots and am fixed. Mom and dad are looking for a good home for me. They say that I would be best as an only dog. I do have one sister now and I tolerate her, but I love attention and I love to play. I am VERY smart. I can sit, stay, roll over, and fetch. Oh, I also ring a set of jingle bells at the door when I have to go potty! I have to tell you that I do not like other dogs, especially those that I don’t know. I get very nervous and upset when I meet new dogs. I am not sure how I would act around children, but I love my mom and dad very much and am an angel at home. My goal in life is to please them, I listen very well. I love to snuggle, give kisses and watch animal planet. Mom and dad will not put me in a shelter. They want to make sure I get a safe and loving home. I look forward to meeting my new best friend! Call Kelly @ 901-484-9702 Please click here to fill out an electronic adoption form. Posted 02-06-08

GIgi is a 10-month-old female Corgi mix. She is very sweet and full
of energy. She is spayed, up-to-date on heartworm preventative and

mix. I weigh in at about 10 lbs. I am a very quiet older gentleman
looking for the company of an older person or couple to live with. I
am definitely over the loud, screaming children phase of my life. I
am a pretty easy going kind of a guy until I get around small male
dogs and they bring out the beast in me. I guess you could say I am
better with the ladies. I am fine with bigger dogs of both sexes. I
am not stupid. I am neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations and
heartworm negative. Just looking for a an easy-going forever home to
live my days out in.
He gives tons of kisses and always wants to play.
He loves children, which must be why he showed up at Fairview
And is now looking for a good home, he's looking for someone like you.
He is about a 12 week old lab mix
And is searching for someone to teach him to sit and do other tricks.
Cooper is in need of a good home
Someone to give him lots of love and to throw him a chew bone.
If you're looking for a lovable, playful puppy- here is Cooper Ray,
He says he's ready for you to take him home TODAY!
Baber is resting comfortably. She is on pain medicine and antibiotics. The
bag, which originally held her insides, is draining well. She will receive
her next pain meds about noon and will be taken outside to potty.
Wilson
neutered. He is housetrained and crate trained. Wilson would do best in a
home without any small children or any other dogs. He is very playful like a
puppy, has a lot of energy and will follow you wherever you go. He needs a
home with someone who is willing to work with him on his training and give
him the opportunity to run off some energy.

and current on heartworm preventative. I was found scrounging for food
and living behind an air-conditioning unit. Thankfully, I was rescued
from the cold, cruel, outdoor life of a stray with my 6 newborn puppies
in December of 2005. Four of my puppies have been adopted and are
living with wonderful new families. Remaining, are myself and one of my
puppies....... "Fiona", searching for our forever homes. It is
believed I may have some Blue Heeler or Australian Shepherd in my
background and I am full grown at around 40lb. I have a sweet
temperament and do well with other dogs. Please consider me for your
family. I have so much love to share.

One of our colleagues is having a baby and was about to take her dog
to the pound. I cannot stand the thought of any dog going there
because that is like signing their death warrant (especially large
breed dogs) so he is now residing at my house. I however absolutely
cannot keep him permanently because I already have a Rottweiler and a
German Shepherd. I have attached his picture above. His name is
Rascal. I am not a fan of that name so I have tried calling him Duke
to see if I can get him to recognize that name but no luck so far. He
is husky and lab mix. Currently he is not neutered (why is beyond me)
but we are going to the vet this weekend to get that taken care of.
He is very timid at first but once he gets used to you he is very
friendly. He gets along amazingly well with other dogs and should not
grow any larger.I will post information again once I get him assessed at the vet. My
boyfriend has given me a 2 week time limit to find him a home before
he has to go to the pound so PLEASE CROSS POST this far and wide if
you know anyone who may be looking for a dog or would be willing to
keep him for a longer period of time while he finds a home. I am very
willing to drive him out of state or wherever is necessary to get him
a good home. He is a wonderful companion and I can't imagine taking him to the
pound. Please help!

Our dear friend and fellow Guardian Angel, Debbie Osswald, lost her battle with breast cancer and left behind two wonderful male dogs. Debbie’s husband is not able to continue her rescue work as he travels much of the time. It is our desire to find the best possible homes for both of Debbie’s rescue dogs. We would love to see these two stay together as they have been together for a very long time. However, if that is not possible, we would be willing to split them up. Please give consideration to providing one or both of them a loving home like the one Debbie provided for them.
