Welcome! My name is Ballerina. I am a spaniel mixed with possibly some terrier, Dalmatian or lab. I am a goofy girl that likes to dance and have a good time. I am around 1 year old and 40 lbs. As most teen pups, I could benefit from continued basic training and socialization. I am very smart and good on a lead. I am a playful pup, so it would be great if I had another playful pup like me to romp with. I have small children in my foster home and I do great with them as well, but I can want to play and jump on them a little when I get excited. I am crate trained and can be crated up to about 8 hours while my foster family is at work. Obviously, the more time I get to spend with you the better! I like to chase cats a bit as a game, so no felines in the home please. RARE rescued me from a kill shelter that often runs out of space and has to euthanize animals. I knew my time was running out, so I was grateful to be saved! I'm not sure why I was there in the first place, but there are a lot of dogs and puppies abandoned where I lived, It's looking up from here on out and I have only begun this adventure called "LIFE"!
My adoption fee is $85.00.
I am spayed, up to date on vaccines, kept on heartworm preventative and micro-chipped.

PLEASE NOTE: Veterinary/Medical expenses are constant for an animal rescue. Our adoption fees not only help to provide vetting and care for the animal being adopted, but they also help to cover heart-worm treatments and other treatable ailments that many animals, that would otherwise be euthanized, need in order to be made available for adoption. Please understand that adopting an animal is a lifetime commitment to that animal and there will be veterinary expenses throughout their life that can often cost several hundreds, if not thousands of dollars (without pet insurance), especially without annual checkups and preventative care. All fosters/adopters must have a fenced yard or be willing and able to walk on leash for potty purposes. As a potential family for this pet you are responsible for their safety and that includes keeping them on your property.
An application and home visit/meet & greet are required. A RARE representative (normally the President and/or foster parent(s) will bring the animal of interest to the home in order to ensure the right fit, perform meet & greet and answer any questions, go over vaccination and other vet paperwork etc.. An adoption trial may commence at that time, if RARE and potential adopter(s) are in agreement. Please complete the application on our website www.RuralAnimalRescueEffort.org and we will call you to explain the adoption process in more detail and answer any questions you may have.
*If you are not in the middle Tennessee area, transport can potentially be arranged to approved homes, depending on distance. We normally do not allow adoptions outside of 4 hours driving distance due to limited resources and difficulty ensuring the right match, especially if there are already animals in the home.
**All of our pets are, or will be, spayed/neutered, up to date on all vaccines and micro-chipped prior to adoption.
Thank you for choosing to adopt, foster, or aid in the rescue efforts of RARE!
