Story
German Shepherd without her personThis listing is a courtesy listing and not affiliated with Desoto Animal Rescue Society. Please contact the current owner below:   My elderly Mom adopted a female German Shepherd shortly after my Dad passed in 2023. My Mom passed unexpectedly last September, her 3yo dog, Angel needed someone to care for her until we could get things sorted out with Mom’s estate. During this time, we thought we would be able to make Angel a permanent part of our family. Things haven’t worked out quite the way we expected though. With a lot of thought and prayer, we’ve decided it would be best for Angel if we could find her a new home. Ideally, she needs a younger handler and a big space where she can readily run off the energy typically observed in German Shepherds. She is OK with younger kids, especially girls. She is does not tolerate boys as well or other animals and passing cars. We’ve been working to correct those behaviors but with our busy household we have found we can not do her due diligence with training. She is a smart dog and has shown that she is willing to learn. On command, she will (sometimes reluctantly) sit, stay, down, shake paws and kennel up. She can be stubborn though and will ignore you unless “treat” is mentioned. Again, diligence and consistency are the biggest factors.She will let you know when she needs to go outside. She usually starts whining and pawing the door between 6:30 to 7 am. Another way she alerts you to her needs is to grab your forearm or bring you any shoe that happens to be available. To an outsider, it may appear to be aggression, but it is truly a playful grab. This routine happens several times daily. She is housebroken!She will be current on shots as she is due to visit the vet for necessary updates. She is chipped. She is also intact, but we can arrange for her to be spayed if that is a requirement for the new owner. We would love for Angel to have a loving home. My mom loved her and she loved my mom. She needs a loving home that can give her the time she deserves and wants.She has supplies that will come with her:Veterinary recordsLarge kennel cageLarge cushionBlanketFood/water bowls2 winter coatsAssorted rubber balls and other toysFur brushIf you are interested in meeting Angel, please let me know.   Jerry Byard jfbyard@gmail.com 901-413-0141 May 12, 2026, 8:23 pm

Story
When Jeri and Meri were found, they were essentially feral. They were hiding under a shipping container they had adopted as their home. It is unknown how long they were living there, as the property was only visited by the owners sporadically. When the landowners found them, it took quite a while to coax them out into the open where they were eventually trapped. Both were very skinny, dehydrated and terrified of people. And both are still very wary and untrusting of new people and new situations.  On occasion, both dogs still nip their rescuers when they are stressed or excited.  This is not to say that they would not warm up to other people.  But it will take a 'dog-savvy' person with great patience, love and a very calm, low activity home. Once the level of trust is earned, either Jeri or Meri would be a sweet companion and friend.  Meri and Jeri will NOT be good with seniors, children or cats because of their unpredictability and their terrier tendencies. They should probably be adopted separately in order to fully bond with the new owner(s). Jeri is neutered, vaccinated and on Heartworm preventative. Meri is spayed, vaccinated, and on Heartworm preventative. You can speak to his foster parents to learn more by calling 662-342-9448 or emailing: info@desotoanimalrescue.orgMay 12, 2026, 8:23 pm

Looking for my forever humans to haunt with love****This is a courtesy listing* please call or text Erin at (901) 574-2659 for more information or interest in meeting Ghost. ****   Meet Ghost – a 70-pound cloud of love wrapped in husky-shepherd fluff!

This loyal pup has a protective nature and wants to keep her family safe.   She’s house-trained, knows her basic manners, and unlike most huskies, she’s more of a strong, silent type (no sass or backtalk here!).   Through no fault of her own, Ghost is looking for her next family to snuggle and adore. If you’ve ever wanted a loyal, fluffy shadow who melts into hugs and makes every day brighter, Ghost is your girl. ✨   ****This is a courtesy listing* please call or text Erin at (901) 574-2659 for more information or interest in meeting Ghost. ****  May 12, 2026, 8:23 pm
