About Dean

Dean is in his foster home in Memphis, TN, and will be transported to Pennsylvania once adopted! Hello, my name is Dean, named after Carl Dean, the husband of the legendary Dolly Parton! I’m a smart and affectionate puppy who’s making great strides with potty training. Playing with toys and cuddling are my favorite activities. I find joy in being safe and held in someone’s arms. At just 10 weeks old, I was rescued from death row at an overcrowded animal shelter. Thankfully, my foster mom stepped in just in time to save my life and give me the chance I deserved. Now, I'm eager to share my playful spirit and loving heart in a forever home. I get along well with dogs and children, so I'm ready to fill your life with fun, love, and companionship! Dean is fully vetted, including neutering, rabies vaccine, all puppy shots, and microchipped. My adoption fee will include transport to PA. Consider making me part of your family—I promise to bring endless joy! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
