Thank you for considering one of our wonderful dogs for your family. Our dogs come from all over Madison County Tennessee; from the high kill municipal facility, found as strays, abandoned by owners, surrendered to us by broken hearted families that simply cannot keep the pet because of harsh circumstances.
Our STATDawgs, as we like to call them, receive all of the vet care that they need; routine vaccinations, deworming, blood tests, spay/neuter, and the treatment and/or management of any health issues.
Our STATDawgs are not housed in a shelter type environment. They are each placed in a private home to be fostered. They are given the opportunity to learn proper house manners, basic commands and social skills. They learn to be polite on outings to adoption events, walks, and monthly visits to the local veteran's home where they bring joy to the residents.
We will provide you with a full and honest health record as well as full disclosure about behavior and temperament from the foster.
ADOPTION DISCLAIMER
S.T.A.T. makes a substantial effort to assure that adoptable animals are in good health and of good temperament. It is possible, however, that undetectable illnesses or conditions may be present or incubating at the time of adoption, or that dogs may exhibit behavior that was not observed during their foster period. Therefore, S.T.A.T. does not make any guarantee as to age, behavior, breed, health, temperament or ultimate size of any animal.
Hi, my name is Braham and I am about 6 years old.
I was surrendered to a high kill facility by my former owner. It was the worst day of my life. I was so sure I'd never get out alive but a nice lady came to visit me everyday and before you know it, I was rescued!!
I like other dogs pretty well unless they are bigger than me. I could live with another dog as long as he or she is my size or smaller. I like snuggling up, taking care rides, playing in the yard...and what I like the most is playing with tennis balls! Oh how I love tennis balls!!!
Maybe I am perfect for you! If you think I might be, just fill out an application at www.savingtheanimalstogether.org and my rescue people will contact you!
Disclaimer: Dogs have been observed while in their foster homes, and appear to be of stable temperament. However, it is not possible to test dogs under all circumstances, so caution should be used in new environments, especially involving young children. Any training done prior to adoption must be continued after adoption in order to keep dogs from starting any unwanted behaviors.
