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.

***This dog is currently located in Arkansas. He/She is listed in all the states we offer transport to or near. Transport is provided by www.heartsllc.com or www.alphadogtransport.com once there is an adopter ready to accept the dog. Meeting the dog prior to adopting is simply not possible, unless you want to come to Arkansas (we would be thrilled to have you, if you want to do some traveling!)Please check the websites referenced to see if one of our transporters offers a stop close to you. We do offer a refund and to take the dog back into rescue, if he/she is not as described or not a good fit for you, if you let us know within a week of receiving him/her. Please understand, we are listing our available dogs anywhere we can, to offer them the best chance of finding the right family and having a happy life filled with love.***

4/17/19 Lucy is such a sweet girl and is so deserving of a loving family of her own. She came into rescue when we took her from a high kill shelter in San Antonio, TX. She is now located in a foster home in AR. Lucy was in the shelter with her one baby that she came in with. We don't know what happened to her other babies, but she and her little Frankie clung to eachother desperately in that shelter. Lucy knew that neither of them were safe. Lucy had no hair at that time. She was malnourished and had demodex mange, complicated by nursing her fat little baby. Now that she is in a foster home where she is treated like royalty, she is thriving. Her hair has grown in and it is baby soft. Little Frankie was adopted about a short time ago, and now it is Lucy's turn to find her happy ever after. Lucy is house trained and she does fine with cats, as well as other dogs as long as they are calm and they are not in her face trying to play. She is not really the playing type, she is more content to snuggle on the bed or sofa and enjoy quiet time. She would be fine with older kids but needs a home that is quiet, as lots of commotion makes her nervous. She would be excellent for a retired person. She is very loving and gets emotionally attached quickly, to those who are kind to her. She does have some separation anxiety so she would do best in a home where she doesn't have to spend long periods home alone. She is very attached to her foster family but will adjust with patience, time, and kindness. She is a beautiful girl who is about 4-5 years old, with a much older soul. She has been through a lot and we promised her it was all up from here! Lucy would love to have someone who will allow her to snuggle in the bed and sofa with them. Her favorite all time activity is cuddling. She also enjoys a good squirrel chase occasionally. :) If you are interested in knowing more about Lucy, email kelley.aasr@gmail.com
