My personality

My story

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

Good ole Rufus Thomas. Rufus has a MAJOR LOVE for humans. Rufus is up to date on shots and flea/tick preventives and he is neutered. He has so much love to give his happiness can light up a room! Rufus does great with other dogs and would love a playmate to match his energy. The foster’s cats walk right by him without a second thought so he must not put off any aggressive energy. He has been in his foster home for over a month is around his foster’s chidren and other pups.Rufus is approximately 2 years old. Here is a list of his pros:
• Update to date with shots
• Neutered
• House trained.
• Loves other dogs.
• Great around kids

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process starts right here – you finding yourself your new best friend and family member. Once you have found one of these beautiful souls we ask that you complete an adoption application.

Once the application has been approved, the selection process begins. As with any adoption, we want to ensure our dogs are going into the best fit home – not only for them, but for you as well. Pet adoption is a big commitment and we want to make sure these dogs don’t endure anymore hardships than they already have.

The final step in the adoption process is the spay/neuter contract (assuming the puppy is too young or unable to be spayed or neutered at the time of adoption).

Once the adoption process has been finalized, we will make reservations for transport to your area. **Please note: Most of our dogs are fostered in Memphis, TN - our transport runs about once a week to Massachusetts.**

More about this rescue

We are a rescue based out of Memphis, Tennessee with fosters and chapters in various parts of the United States. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home as many homeless pets in the mid south as we possibly can. To save them from euthanasia. Their only fault...there are just too many. The euthanasia rate in this city is a staggering 79%. We watch perfectly healthy, well adjusted pets be euthanized daily because there simply are not enough homes for them all. The solution...stronger spay/neuter laws and education but until then , these pets deserve a future too!
