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.

4/1/23 Amber is a very sweet, affectionate girl. She’s gentle and pretty calm but does like to play. She has the most beautiful eyes! She gets along well with other dogs and cats! She is a little shy at first with people but comes around quickly. She loves belly rubs and any attention you're willing to give her! She is house and crate trained. She is medium energy level. She loves to play with toys and is often playing with the other dogs in her foster home, but if nobody wants to play, she will play with toys and entertain herself! Her best friend is a 115 pound Great Dane mix-Amber loves to play tug with her! She’s a little chunky right now and could stand to lose some weight. We believe Amber is about 2 years old and is probably a mix of many different breeds with no dominant breed identifiable. Maybe Lab mix? Maybe some shepherd? Very mixed but 100% LOVE! She weighs about 50-60 lbs. The quick movements and loudness of toddlers seems to scare Amber and make her uncomfortable, so a home with kids 6+ would be best. She’s not aggressive in any way, just nervous of little ones. She’s met my 11 year old niece and nephew and was good with them. She enjoys being outside and is doing well with her leash manners. She’d love to sleep in bed with her humans at night but is content on her dog bed, the recliner, or her crate if getting in bed is not an option. This girl is truly as sweet as they come! She will try to steal food from the counter if you’re not looking, but given the state she was in when she was rescued, I can’t blame the poor girl.
Amber was rescued from living life on a chain. She was skin and bones (see the pictures of when she was rescued ). She suffered through every season outdoors on a chain without shelter and usually without food. She drank rain water because often times that is all she had. She had several litters of puppies and when the last litter was about 10 weeks old, we became aware of the situation and were able to rescue Amber, all of her puppies, and the other 2 adult dogs that were on the property. One of the other dogs has been adopted and the other one is Colby, who is also listed for adoption currently. Amber did have heartworms on intake but has been treated and is doing great. She is ready to find her own family to love.
