Kiko's Story

Updated 3Aug25 **Meet Kiko - The Couch Potato Connoisseur! ** Hi, my name is Kiko! Am I not the most handsome boy you've ever seen? If you enjoy quiet days and evenings snacking on the couch while watching Hallmark Christmas movies, look no further-I'm your perfect partner in crime! While I do enjoy my leisurely walks (think stroll, not sprint) and sniffing all the great smells outside, I'm also content to just lay at your feet or engage in a serious squeaky toy chewing session. Now, let's talk about snacks-I'm a bit of a connoisseur! I have a refined palate and can definitely tell the difference between a yummy treat and a green bean. Sneak a green bean by me, and I'll give you the side-eye of disapproval! *Car Rides and Social Skills* I also love car rides and being wherever you are! Just picture it: you, me, the open road, and a playlist of our favorite tunes. I'm the older guy looking for my next person to bond with. My prior owner was busy, busy, busy, which made me anxious and uncomfortable-too much excitement for my laid-back lifestyle! I can be a bit hesitant around new people, so I might take my time to warm up to you. If I'm not feeling social (which is often), I'll be perfectly content in my cozy kennel with my favorite stuffed carrot. I'm house-trained, love gentle pets and ear scratches, but I'm not really a cuddler. While I enjoy being near my people, I prefer to keep my personal space-think of me as a charming companion who values independence! *Training and Bonding* I know how to sit like a good boy and have fantastic recall-just call my name, and I'll come sauntering over like I'm the star of a slow-motion movie! I spent some time at Champion Farms in November 2023, where everyone learned a lot about me. I take a little time to warm up, but once I do, I bond faster than you can say "treat time! A quiet home suits me best, but one where I can still enjoy short leash walks with my person is ideal. My new human should possess some leadership qualities to ensure healthy boundaries-after all, I bond deeply with my favorite humans! Oh, and here's the cherry on top: My next home will receive a free in-home session with Edgar at The Champion Farm to ensure you get started on the right foot together. Think of it as a training montage for our buddy cop movie!

Team Memphis Rescue & Support's Adoption Policy

Adoption Process The first step towards adopting a Team Memphis Rescue pup is completing the adoption application! The application gives us background information necessary to select the best fit family for each dog and vise versa. ! We take our job very seriously and want to do everything possible to ensure each and every dog will be with his adopted family for life. We suggest submitting an application describing the type of dog you are looking for even if you don’t see that particular dog on our adopt a pet page. Not every dog is posted. Also, there are hundreds of homeless dogs in this area so the pet you desire could possibly be found. We are all volunteers but try to process applications in 7 business days or less. You should receive a response that the application is being processed which means we are calling references, including the Veterinarian Clinic listed. Once your application is approved, a Team Memphis Representative will contact you for a brief phone interview, request a home inspection and set up date/time for a meet & greet. Adopters will also receive a call from the foster family if the pet is in a foster home. Foster families play a big part in a rescue dog's life. They provide valuable information to the adopter that helps the pet transition to a new home. If the pet appears to be the perfect fit, Team Memphis will provide a contract for signature and adopter pays the donation fee. Payments can be made through the PayPal, Venmo, checks or cash. Adoption fees are typically $300 and $200 for seniors (7 & up). The transport fee (approx $140/$150) for out of State adoptions is paid by the adopter after the reservation is made by Team Memphis Rescue. Team Memphis Adoption process: • You must be at least 21 years of age and be able to provide proof of age. • Any current pets must be spayed/neutered. They must also be up to date on annual exams, annual heartworm tests and annual vaccinations – along with consistent heartworm preventative. Exceptions to this will only be considered if proof of a medical explanation is provided. The same applies for your past pets. • If you currently rent, you must provide a landlord’s phone number and a copy of your executed lease. • All members of the family living in the home where the animal must agree on the adoption. • Home check will be required or video chat if out of state. • You must be able to spend the time and money necessary to provide training, medical treatment and proper care for a pet. We are a volunteer based organization. We receive inquiries on dogs often and can not always respond. Please submit an adoption application if you are interested in one of our pets.
