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.

‼️Kuma graduates from Paws in Prison in just a few weeks. We’d really love for him to have an adopter ready and waiting‼️
⭐️Great with kids (even toddlers) and other dogs!⭐️

⭐️From Arkansas Paws in Prison Foundation-

“Hush. Don’t say it. Not one word. That’s not why we’re ear. I mean, here. We want to concentrate on how cute, sweet and genuine Kuma is. All this adorableness, and he’s not even an earling yet. I mean, yearling. Kuma is about 7-8 months old. He weighs 30 pounds and is a mix of who the heck knows. Maybe some shepherd or lab or Hubble telescope. Just about anything is possible. We love this sweet guy and his extra large, over the top, might be a Guinness world record sized…heart. You thought we were gonna say ears, didn’t you? Nope. We’re not saying a word. Except that Kuma is magnificent!”

⭐️This little guy is just wonderful! He is housetrained, leash trained, good with other dogs, good with kids (even toddlers!), and loves everyone he meets!

⭐️He is fully vetted (neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and started on flea/tick and heartworm prevention).

⭐️If you aren’t familiar with Paws in Prison, it’s an amazing program where dogs are paired with inmates. These inmates have gone through training themselves, to learn how to properly train the dogs. Once enrolled, the dog lives at the prison with the inmates for 8 weeks. During that time, they are trained in basic obedience. They learn skills like house training, basic commands, leash walking, manners, etc. The inmates and the dogs all meet with the trainer once a week in a common area, where all the dogs are together, and each week they show the trainer what they have learned, and get assigned new tasks for the following week. Each inmate keeps a journal on their dog. The journal is passed along to the adopter one the dog is adopted. The journal tells all about the dog, what they have learned, what they still need to work on, likes/dislikes, etc. At the end of the 8 weeks, the dog goes thru the Canine Good Citizen test.

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.
