About Memphis

Meet Memphis Memphis is a 3-year-old, 48 lb mixed breed with a Lab/hound look and just a hint of shepherd in those expressive earsand a gentle, thoughtful personality to match. He came to Canine Collective from Tennessee and is still learning that new people and places can be safe. Memphis isnt going to rush up for attentionbut if you give him a moment and meet him at his level, youll start to see his curiosity and sweetness come through. He does best with slow, low-pressure interactions. Standing over him can feel overwhelming, but sit down and let him come to you, and hell inch closer, sniff, and quietly start to connect. Its those small moments that show just how special he is. Memphis arrived with his more confident friend Winnie, and while they arent bonded, he clearly gains confidence from another steady dog. A calm canine companion in his future home could really help him continue to grow. Hes still working on leash skills and can be unsure at first, but hes already shown that with patience, he settles in and walks nicely. He just needs someone willing to go at his pace. Memphis is a watch first, join later kind of dogand those are often the ones who form the deepest bonds. He would do best in a quieter home with patient adopters who understand that trust takes time. In return, youll get a loyal companion whose connection is truly earned. If you believe in bringing out the best in a shy dog, Memphis might be your guy.
