Joey Tribbiani German Shepherd Dog Mix Franklin, TN

Thank you for choosing to adopt or foster and aid in the rescue efforts of RARE!

**Adoption Interest Form REQUIRED via our website Rarerescue.org**

Meet Joey Tribbiani!

Introducing Joey, a lovable German Shepherd mix with a heart full of playfulness and charm! Joey radiates confidence and charisma. His favorite thing to do is play with his siblings and loves nothing more than meeting new friends, whether they be human or canine. Joey is a dynamic pup, as he loves playtime, exploring, and cuddling up with his foster humans. A true socialite, he revels in the company of dogs of all sizes and would be a great fur sibling for kids. With his gentle nature and infectious energy, Joey is the paw-fect addition to a lively and loving family.

Joey is the one sibling who looks most like his mom, a German Shepherd. He has a tan coat with some black around his face, and beautiful blue eyes (that will probably change with age). His handsome features only further makes his sweet personality shine. With Joey by your side, you'll not only gain a loyal companion but also a forever friend who will bring laughter, happiness, and boundless love into your home every day.

If you're interested in adopting Joey or any of his siblings, please complete an adoption application at rarerescue.org to learn more about the adoption process. They can't wait to meet their future paw-rents!

Joey is not ready for his neuter surgery yet, but he will receive his first set of vaccines very soon. His spay/neuter, rabies, and full vaccine series will be completed by RARE as age-appropriate and will be included in the Adoption Contract.

Complete the DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM (located on our website RARErescue.org)

We understand that it is important to you to find the right fit for your family. We feel the same way! The DOG ADOPTION INTEREST FORM is important and REQUIRED for this reason.

All of our Adoptables are:

Spayed/neutered; Up to date on vaccines; Heartworm tested if six months or older (& kept on heartworm preventative and treated for heartworms if positive when entering our program): Microchipped prior to adoption

BREEDS: We are not breed experts. The breed(s) listed for each adoptable are best guesses or suggestions.

PLEASE NOTE: We are a non-profit organization without municipal or government funding. Veterinary/Medical expenses are constant for an animal rescue. Our adoption fees not only help to provide vetting and care for the animal being adopted, but they also help to cover heartworm treatments and other treatable ailments that many animals, that would otherwise be euthanized, need in order to be made available for adoption.

Please understand that adopting an animal is a LIFETIME COMMITMENT to that animal and there will be veterinary expenses throughout their life that can often cost several hundreds, if not thousands of dollars (without pet insurance), especially without annual checkups and preventative care. As a potential family for this pet you are responsible for their safety and that includes keeping them on your property.

***If you are not in the middle Tennessee area, transport can potentially be arranged to approved homes, depending on distance and local adaptability. We normally do not allow adoptions outside of 1.5 hours driving distance.
