My story

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

Hello friends, I'm Barkley! I sweet and spotted guy who likes to play but I'm more of a snoozer than anything. My foster home consists of a whole slew of people and animals, and I love them all equally. My canine foster friends here are a dog bigger than me, and a little puppy. I'm gentle with the puppy and I love to romp around with the bigger dog as well. There are also a few kitties here. I was scared of them at first but I have learned to coexist comfortably with them. I don't have accidents in the house and I love going for car rides. My underbite may make me appear to be grumpy, but I assure you I do not have anything in my heart but a whole lot of love. I promise to fill your house with lots of laughs, a couple of romps around the backyard, and a ton of snuggles. If low maintenance, and fun is what you have in mind I'm the dog for you!

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.

Our adoption application can be found at http://www.aliverescuememphis.org/adoptionapplication/

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.
