***CRITICAL List***

Added to the Urgent/Critical List on 3/8/18

Another volunteer who spent time with me said I pulled hard on the leash to go outside, and when we were outside playing, I showed how I love to play fetch! She said I had a lot of energy and was very playful and interested in interacting with her. I jumped up on her to show how excited I was! I enjoyed the treats she offered me, and when I saw other dogs I seemed very playful and interested. - Millie, #A302125


Another MAS volunteer who spent time with me said I'm a very affectionate and playful dog. I greet everyone at the kennel door with my tail wagging. I came out cheerfully and grateful for the attention. I gently jumped up against the volunteer to get petted. When he got through photographing me and reached down to pet me, I immediately rolled over for a belly rub. I'm a loving dog that never met a stranger and needs a good home. I will make a great pet! - Millie, #A302125


A MAS volunteer who spent time with me said I walked nicely on the leash and I seem to know the 'sit', 'come', and 'lay down' commands. She said I was affectionate and interested in interacting with me, and that I had a lot of energy and jumped up to show my excitement. I enjoyed the treats she offered me, and when I saw other dogs, I seemed very playful and interested. - Millie, #A302125


This is Millie the Silly! This is one pretty and silly girl! When we ask her to sit she sits then rolls over for a belly rub lol. A two-step process for a treat! She has a beautiful coat and seems well cared for other than having heartworms which will need to be treated by her new family. Millie weighs about fifty-four pounds. Millie came into the shelter as a stray. She walks nicely on a leash, and she just adores attention. Miss Millie is about a year old, and her id number is A302125. This sweet dog sure hopes you call in love with her! She is waiting at Memphis Animal Services to meet her new forever family. - Friends of Memphis Animal Services

Breed information is not provided by this shelter. MAS hopes eliminating breed labels will increase the number of animals adopted by eliminating 'breed discrimination.' When entering information on this website the 'Breed:' field is required. All breed information I enter is an educated guess solely based on a photo of the dog.

I try to keep this information as vague as possible, usually entering by group instead of a super specific breed. Why? Almost all of the dogs at MAS are mixed breeds. Being super specific is not going to accurately represent their personality and it would be virtually impossible to do. There are 20+ specific types in the terrier breed group alone, ranging from the tiny Norfolk Terrier to the larger Staffordshire Bull Terrier (which is often lazily labeled a pit bull). Pit bull is actually the name given to types of dogs having certain similar features. See super complicated.

My advice? If you fall in love with a face, go to the shelter and visit with the dog. Ask the staff and volunteers questions. See if their personalities mesh with you and your lifestyle. If the picture you've fallen in love with doesn't fit? Ask if there is a dog whose personality does. Mixed dogs are so much more than the breed they kind of look like.

Remember that you furbaby's adoption fee includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccines, heartworm test, collar, leash, and a customized ID tag.
