My story

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

Desiel and brother Rocket showed up covered with fleas, had scratches and nicks probably from traveling through and living in wooded areas when homeless. They are not noticable unless you know where to look for them.... hidden by a rich, pretty coat now. Luckily, these two showed up at a rescue friendly home. Diesel LOVES to ride, go on walks, run and play. He is nice with the cats in his foster home. He is not immediate with trusting men...he shys away at first! He is very sweet and affectionate. He will give you kisses if allowed. Looking for a family that will get him out and about on adventures! Diesel loves the 8 year old girl in his foster home. Is nice to the cats. Plays well with the other dogs. Walks well on leash. Crate trained. His coat is so rich looking. He is a very handsome boy.

DIESEL is located in Bruceton, West Tennessee.
Adoption fee is $175. If transport is required that cost is $180

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

KEG Rescue is a small rescue . We work with several rescue group from New England to help adopt our pups/dogs and move them into GREAT homes. New England states have worked hard to pass great laws concerning spay/neuter. By passing these laws they there aren't as many "unwanted litters" in the New England States. There are several transport companies that bring southern rescue pups north to their new homes. KEG Rescue utilizesRed Fern Ranch Transport. Be sure to check them out on Facebook. They are sure to keep adopters updated as the transport is traveling.

Our adoptions are directly thru our website (although we do hope to expand to foster homes in New England if possible). it’s not possible to arrange a meeting of the pup before adoption. This type of adoption doesn't work for everyone and we would be happy to put you in touch with some of our sister groups who have pups on site. The adoption fee covers all of the vet work that has been performed prior to adoption. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated as age appropriate. If you are still interested in adopting from us, please email for an application. We have several adoption coordinators that process the applications and will contact you.

Go meet their pets

The puppy/dog you inquired about is still in a southern foster home.

More about this rescue

KEG Rescue was started in 2009 and became a Chartered Non Profit on May 28, 2010. It started as a few people wanting to help the many unwanted puppies and dogs in our area. We are one of many rescues in this area as there are so many homeless pets. All our rescues have a common goal of educating the public about the importance of pet ownership and the benefits of spay/neuter

We do this by private adoptions from our site and also partner with other rescues in New England. We believe that these "throw aways" and "mistakes" deserve a forever home of their own.

WE receive our pups/dogs in many ways- we pull from several kill shelters, dogs that are abandoned, and from people who call who need to surrender their own dogs or whose dogs have had puppies. We also focus on not only the many puppies that are down south we also focus on adults that sometimes are harder to place because of their age/size. It is very easy to fall in love with the puppy face but there are even more adult dogs that are abandoned down south
