Happy Dog Rescue

We partner with rescue groups and shelters across the South to rehome southern dogs with loving families. Loyal and loving dogs turn up every day in Southern shelters, as owners turn them in or they’re found roaming the streets after being dumped. To the best of our abilities, we evaluate all our goldens’ temperaments and suitability for living with other dogs, cats, and children. Their health is checked, and we make sure they are up-to-date on all shots and spayed or neutered. Then we place them in loving foster homes until they find their very own family. Our goal is to meet the needs of each dog as an individual and to assure proper placement in a loving forever home.

To adopt please fill out an adoption Application  Poppy is a 1 yo female lab mix who was rescued as a stray in Memphis. Poppy is initially shy with new people and situations but gradually warms up as she becomes comfortable.  She dislikes too many dogs or people trying to touch her too much initially.  Poppy was a little wary of foster mom’s dog at first, sometimes nipping and correcting aggressively if approached too quickly but now they’re fine together as Poppy has learned to trust the other dog. No food aggression. Not recommended for cats because she likes to chase them. History with kids is unknown. High activity outside, loves to run and jump in the backyard, settles down quickly in the house. Good house manners. Housebroken but not crated because she doesn’t need to be. Estimated DOB is 6-1-24. Healthy and fully vetted, current on shots, spayed, weighs about 45 pounds.  We believe that Poppy was abused previously, causing her to be nervous and fearful with new people and situations. She is very fearful at the vet clinic and very fearful when approached quickly by other dogs. Poppy’s ideal adopter is an active, patient, loving person who can accept her and work with her to continue her socialization and help her reach her full potential.To adopt please fill out an adoption Application Contact us at [email protected]  visit us at http://www.happydogrescue.org
