Story
🎾 Meet Maze! 🎾 Maze is back at MAS, through no fault of his own, and is ready to find his perfect match! This handsome boy is bursting with love and energy and is ready to bring joy to your home: ✨ Energetic & Fun: Maze has lots of playful energy and loves a good game of fetch! He’s thrilled to chase a tennis ball and even brings it back for more fun. ✨ Smart & Trained: Maze knows how to sit, stay, and even go to bed on command—a superstar in the making! ✨ Affectionate Companion: He adores pets and scratches from his handlers and is always eager for some quality bonding time. ✨ Sensitive Tummy: Maze does best on Purina kibble, as Hill's Science Diet upsets his stomach. Maze’s previous foster described him as a very loving dog who will thrive with an active family that appreciates his zest for life and sweet personality. Ready to meet this fun-loving, ball-chasing sweetheart? Come visit him at MAS and see if Maze is the perfect fit for your family! 📩 Email MAS@memphistn.gov for more info or to set up a meet-and-greet. On 12/7/24 Maze met another dog. He was timid in his kennel and fled from me. I attempted to leash him and he was growling and snapping at the leash. I used calm repetitive persistence and was able to get him leashed. Once leashed, he readily came out of his kennel. Outside, he was friendly and social with a playful attitude. He was high energy and absolutely loved Pamila and they enjoyed lots of zoomies and play.

Meet Cowen, a bundle of energy and sweetness currently thriving in his foster home! His foster family shares that this 1-year-old is brimming with energy and gets along wonderfully with both their two dogs and all people. While he's not a fan of the kennel just yet, Cowen is a smart pup who's ready to learn with a bit of training. Cowen is the model of sweetness, seeking a loving home that offers ample space for his lively spirit. If you're ready to provide Cowen with the tender loving care he deserves, he's ready to fill your life with joy and playful adventures! If you're interested in adopting heartworm-negative Cowen, click "apply for adoption" on his profile at memphisanimalservices.com, and we'll forward your information to his foster parents.

Meet Rambo: Loves Toys: Enjoys engaging with toys, likely a fan of fetch or tug-of-war. Great on Walks: Walks well on a leash, making him a pleasure to take on adventures. Affectionate: Shows love and bonds easily with people. High Energy/Hyper: Needs an active lifestyle or plenty of playtime to burn off energy. Silly and Playful: Brings joy with his goofy antics and spirited nature. Excited in Kennel and Yard: Shows enthusiasm in various environments, ready to explore and engage. Social: Enjoys meeting people and playing with other dogs. Jumper: May need some training to curb the excitement when greeting. Rambo would thrive in an active home where he can get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection!
