I am a male, black and tan Mixed breed. I weighed 83.0 LBS at intake.
The shelter staff thinks I am about 3 years old.
I am Heartworm Positive. (Easily Treated!)I am part of Litter No K17-018065.
Intake Date: Dec 08, 2017
Available: Dec 12, 2017
Intake Type: Stray/Field
***PRIORITY******CRITICAL List***Added to the Urgent/Critical List on 12/22/17
***KENNEL STRESSED***Reactive / takes time to warm up to people but SWEET once he does
***SPECIAL PLEA***As you know, as long as we have space, we will not euthanize as adoptable animal simply because of a time limit they've reached - but the inevitable result of us having the luxury of giving these animals more time is that some of them are becoming less adoptable while they're here. There are some dogs that came in with existing behavioral challenges that kept them from being picked for public adoption, and now that the effects of long term kenneling (which begins to take effect just after two weeks), they are even less likely to be chosen for public adoption. These guys NEED rescue to save them. Be a hero!
So please take a special look at the below 15 dogs which are all also on the Urgent List. If the animal ID has a 💗 next to it, the dog has been ADOPTED/RESCUED! A 🖤 means that we were to late, the dog has been euthanized.

Our team has been laser focused on trying to avoid euthanasia for space. Now we need to focus on euthanizing for time - because of what time in a shelter environment is doing to these dogs. Come next week, if these 15 dogs are still here, we have to ask ourselves, is it fair to let them sit here going absolutely crazy in their kennels, with no clear path to leaving our facility?
Please help us get these guys out of the kennels, so they can start 2018 with a new hope of finding a forever home. Urgent list rules still apply for these dogs, so please send your commitments to pull to mas.rescue@memphistn.gov as soon as you can!

This pup is very good with the technician who regularly works in the area. And he was ok with me while she was there with me.

I went outside with him and the technician and he was sweet to me. He ran and played. He just needs to trust the person he is with.

I met him with the technician there and he was giving me sniffs and kisses. I think he will be a good loyal dog.
