My story

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

I may be biased, but I just don't think they come any cuter than Melvin Douglas (AKA Melvy Man)
This little guy has PERSONAITY PLUS. He is funny, quirky, loving, sweet and goofy.
Melvin loves other dogs and is very social with new people...he just loves every one.
Melvin is house trained and crate trained. And he is looking for his FOREVER HOME. Is it you?
If you are ready for unconditional love, lots of fun times and laughter, then Melvin is your man.

He is currently in the Middle TN area, but transport is provided for an approved adopter. If you are interested in Melvin, please email cox_ann@bellsouth.net for an application

More about this rescue

Rookie's Rescue is committed to helping abandoned, neglected and abused pets, finding loving homes and
educating the public about responsible pet ownership with a strong emphasis on spaying and neutering. .

Rookie's Rescue is a virtual shelter, meaning all of our pets live in loving foster homes, not a facility/shelter environment. Almost all of the pets available are located in foster homes in TN, VA, NY or PA.

WHERE DO OUR PETS COME FROM?
Rookie' Rescue saves pets from over crowded shelters and animal control facilities, who due to lack of space and overwhelming volume are forced to euthanize thousands of healthy, adoptable pets each year. We will also accept pets from owners who can no longer care for their pet. When the animal enters our program, they undergo a complete health check from a local vet to make sure the pet is healthy. The pet is treated for any medical needs, is brought up to date on all vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. The pet is then socialized and assessed by our behaviorist. When the animal has been determined healthy and socialized, it is placed for adoption.
