McGyver
Cocker spaniel
puppy - 10 to 12 weeks old
male
A Good Samaritan happened to be in the parking lot at Memphis Animal Services today (Monday) when it closes at 3. A man arrived after closing with this precious little puppy he had purchased for his children who were mistreating the little puppy. A quick call to one of our volunteers and McGyver was on his way to being a REAL GOOD DOG!
McGyver is a baby at 10 to 12 weeks old. A classic buff cocker, he has an intact tail, the hair on his ears is just beginning to curl, his feet are the typical 'lily pad' cocker feet and he has the longest eyelashes in town! He loves to be held and just seems almost boneless in your arms he is so relaxed. He is not intimidated by the other dogs in his foster home. He sleeps a lot at this age and cries when he wants to be held by his foster mom.
McGyver has had his first set of puppy shots, dewormer, heartworm preventive, and flea preventive. He needs three more sets of puppy shots including his rabies when old enough. His fee of $175 includes all these shots and his neuter surgery and microchip.
McGyver's best home is one that has a flexible schedule, experience with house training a puppy, a stable, consistent history of good vet care for current or previous pets, and a lot of love to share.
Watch out, because this little guy will steal your heart using only a woof and a slip lead!

We adopt dogs from Memphis Animal Shelter when we can. The shelter has an 83% euthanasia rate, one of the highest in the country. Unfortunately, any dog coming from Memphis Animal Shelter, and most other shelters for that matter, will have been in contact with contagious illness. Even though the dogs have been in foster care and appear to be in good health, they may become stressed when changing environments and exhibit signs and symptoms of illness. If you have other pets, they need to be up to date on vaccines before bringing a shelter dog into your home. We will take the adopted animal back, but we are not responsible for your other animal's vet care. We always disclose where the dogs have come from. Please ask for any information about the dogs and exercise due caution if you have immunocompromised animals.
