Meet Gage

*GAGE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN*

Gage is a 6-7 month old Shepherd/Black Mouth Cur mix pup weighing in at 40lbs. If you love the look and intelligence of a shepherd in a small package, do not miss out on handsome Gage! Here is his story:

While rescuers were in North Memphis at a condemned and abandoned residence saving a momma dog and her 8 puppies, Gage walked up to the team and saved himself. Neighbors say they had never seen him before, so he was deemed abandoned. His foster mom was onsite and agreed to save him right before her eyes were swollen with tears. Gage jumped into the crate in the van like a champ. That was a sign to the entire team that he was ready to be saved and ok with their plan.

Gage is sweet, calm, and very smart. He is also quick to learn new commands. He is very observant. If he was a human, his skill would be "reading the room." He walks well on a lead, knows the commands sit, come, off, and leave it. Most importantly, Gage knows what it is like to feel safe, have plenty of food and clean water, and to get lots of love from his people (and give it right back!). He is fostered with dogs ranging in age from 1-15 years and in size from 15lbs to 60lbs. He plays very well with all of the other dogs in his foster home. Gage, although a young puppy, takes cues perfectly from his pack as well as his people. He would enjoy the company of another well temperamental canine friend or would be happy focusing all of his attention on his person. But, keep in mind, Gage's favorite thing is playing chase with his foster siblings! His BFF is a sweet black female hound/lab mix.

The best home for Gage will have a secure physical fence. Another well-mannered dog would be fabulous to mentor this adorable baby dog. Kids over 10 and with excellent doggy manners would be fine. A family with a flexible schedule is required to keep him on track with his house training. An excellent history of vet care for current or previous pets is required. A previous specific breed experience will be given preference.

Gage is neutered, microchipped, UTD on all shots, as well as current on heartworm prevention, and heartworm negative. His adoption fee is $300.
