PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.

PLEASE NOTE! These puppies are located in Arkansas. They can be transported to the northeast once they have adopters ready for them. We use www.alphadogtransport.com and www.heartsllc.com for transporting our pups to their families. We list our pups in all of the areas that we offer transport to or near. So even though it may say "This dog is in CT or VT etc" he/she is actually in Arkansas. This is the only way we have of making these pups visible to adopters in other states. We are only trying to give them every opportunity to find good homes. Thank you for understanding!

11/4/19 Lou came from a small town in rural Arkansas. The town has no animal control, no animal shelter of any kind. Our rescue was contacted by a resident who was concerned about the growing number of "street dogs" in the town. We are slowly working on getting these dogs off the streets, vetted, and into homes. We have been pleasantly surprised that these dogs have all been wonderful, sweet natured, loving babies! They have all been scared initially, I'm sure it is terrifying as they've probably never been in a vehicle except when they were dumped on the streets. But within a day or two each of them have come out of their shells and surprised us with their loving personalities. Lou is about 5-6 months old. She is part of a little family who we took from the streets. Lou has a mama and a brother and sister, and they are all wonderful. We believe Lou is a Collie mixed with Heeler and probably other breeds as well. She has a very long, slender face of a Collie and the coloring of a Red Heeler. Lou is in a foster home where she is socializing very well with another dog that she just met, and a cat as well. She is great with both, and very respectful of their space. After the 2nd day in her foster home, her little tail hasn't stopped wagging! Lou is about 35lbs and probably won't grow much more. She loves her crate and goes in it willingly, hanging out in there with the door open any time she wants to rest. She is playful and is loving the discovery of toys! She is almost completely house trained already, so she is fast learner! Of course, coming into a new home, she may have some accidents at first and will probably need some reminders, but should pick it back up easily. Lou is good with kids and adults and doesn't have any behavior issues that we have identified. She is going to be a wonderful little companion for her forever family!
