Marge's Story

For years, Marge wandered the Old Hickory Blvd area, outsmarting every attempt to trap or catch her. This clever 7 year old German Shepherd mix survived on her own, wary of people and trusting no one. That is, until one patient and kind resident slowly earned her trust.<br/>And one day she walked inside. 💛<br/>That was the moment Marge discovered something life changing. Humans are not so bad after all.<br/>Now this resilient girl has blossomed into a sweet companion who is learning what love, comfort, and safety truly feel like. After spending years fending for herself, she is finally ready to find what she has never had before. A real family.<br/><br/>- What Marge Needs<br/>• A secure, fenced yard where she can feel safe and explore<br/>• A patient and loving family willing to continue building her confidence<br/>• A home without small children, as she is still a little jumpy around tiny humans<br/>• Commitment to her care. She is heartworm positive, but we will cover the full cost of treatment. Her forever family simply needs to make sure she gets to her appointments.<br/><br/>At 7 years old, Marge is not looking for chaos. She is looking for comfort. Soft beds. Gentle voices. People who will show her that she never has to survive on her own again. She's kennel trained and is doing well with her leash practice.<br/><br/>She spent years being brave.<br/>Now she deserves to just be loved.<br/>If you are ready to give this smart, soulful girl the forever home she has waited so long for, Marge is ready to meet you.

Jackson Animal Care Center's Adoption Policy
We are located in West TN. We do local adoptions with the adopter picking the pet up directly from our facility and out-of-state adoptions, which utilize a private transport company to ensure the pet gets safely to their new parent. Our adoption process is very straightforward. We have a one-page adoption application to enable us to match you with currently available pets and help us determine if the pet you are interested in is a good fit for your home dynamic. After application approval, the adopter will pay the fee listed on the pet's profile, and arrangements will be made for them to pick up the pet from the shelter or our transport partner if the adopter is outside TN. If the adopter is outside TN, the posted adoption fee includes a legally required interstate health certificate and transport cost. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, heartworm negative, screened for obvious health issues, and treated for any injury they may have had when they came into our facility. Upon adoption, we provide the new pet parents copies of all available medical and behavioral paperwork for the animal they are adopting. We strive to be VERY transparent with our potential adopters because we want all our pets to find homes that will last the rest of their lives. We are happy to discuss the pet's behavior, personality, quirks, special needs, etc., and will address or discuss any concerns the potential adopter may have. Please feel free to reach out to us directly by phone or email for more information. *We reserve the right to refuse an adoption for any reason, but the goal of JACC is to find the RIGHT home for every pet in our program. Even though an adopter might not be a great fit for a particular pet, they might be a great option for a different one.
