Dixie Jack Russell Terrier Memphis, TN

Dixie was incarcerated at the Memphis Animal Shelter when she was noticed by a RGDR volunteer. She was just so friendly and cute that we had to get her out. Dixie is a young Jack Russell Terrier, probably 2-3 years old. She weighs between 15-20 lbs, is up to date on her shots and spayed. She's playful, friendly and as sweet as can be and ready to find her forever companion! Preference will be given to someone with prior breed experience; a vet reference supporting excellent care of prior or current pets is required. Her adoption fee is $150

We adopt dogs from Memphis Animal Shelter when we can. The shelter has an 83% euthanasia rate, one of the highest in the country. Unfortunately, any dog coming from Memphis Animal Shelter, and most other shelters for that matter, will have been in contact with contagious illness. Even though the dogs have been in foster care and appear to be in good health, they may become stressed when changing environments and exhibit signs and symptoms of illness. If you have other pets, they need to be up to date on vaccines before bringing a shelter dog into your home. We will take the adopted animal back, but we are not responsible for your other animal's vet care. We always disclose where the dogs have come from. Please ask for any information about the dogs and exercise due caution if you have immunocompromised animals.
