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.

2/11/25 Gary is currently enrolled in the Paws in Prison program. He started there on 2/10 and will be there for 8 weeks. During that time he will be with an inmate trainer who will work on the basics with him (basic obedience, leash walking, house training, etc.). They meet weekly with a dog trainer. When Gary graduates, he will have his Canine Good Citizen Certificate. We hope he has a home waiting for him when he graduates in April!

Gary was dumped at a business where the workers fed and cared for him until they gained his trust. Once he realized humans were not a threat, he morphed into the sweetest, most affectionate young man. At approx. 6 months old, he is almost completely housebroken and crate trained. We believe he is a Lab mix. Gary sleeps in his crate all night and doesn't make a peep. He is learning to walk on a leash and to ride in the car without being scared. He wants nothing more than to be loved on and talked to. He absolutely LOVES playing with his foster siblings (male and female) and is the submissive type. He is not food / toy aggressive, nor is he a jumper, so he would do just fine in a home with younger children. Gary is the quiet type and seldom barks, so he would be an ideal candidate for apartment/condo life. Gary would LOVE to be adopted into a home with another dog that likes to play and wrestle, but he's told us that he will be happy as long as he has a safe place to lay his head at night, food (he LOVES to eat),a few toys/treats and most importantly a person or family to love him. This is all he asks for.  

Our typical adoption fee for puppies younger than 6 months old is $400, and for older puppies and adults, the usual fee is $350. This includes microchip, spay/neuter,  up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, dewormings, flea/tick treatment, and heartworm test (if over 6 months old) as well as heartworm treatment if they test positive. There is a transport fee of $150 per dog, depending on the transporter. We use Pack Leaders Rescue Dog Transport most often, but also use Hearts Transport as well on occasion.
