My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Maria — the devoted mama of our Christmas puppies!
This smart, energetic girl has poured her heart into raising her little holiday litter, and once her pups are weaned in a few weeks, she’ll be ready to find a forever home of her own.

Maria is sharp as can be — she already knows commands, learns quickly, and loves to engage her brain. She’s also great on a leash and enjoys getting out for walks and adventures. True to her expressive personality, Maria can be a bit vocal at times, especially when she has something important to say!

Loving, lively, and full of potential, Maria will make a wonderful companion for an adopter ready for a bright, active dog. She can’t wait to celebrate the next chapter of her life — this time as the one being cared for.Big Paws of the Ozarks is a foster-based dog rescue in Northwest Arkansas. We require an approved adoption application on file before scheduling meets with our dogs. You can find the application here (www.bigpawsozarks.org/adoption-application). Please email info@bigpawsoftheozarks.org if you have specific questions about an available dog.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is thorough in order to ensure dogs go to the best possible home.

We often get multiple applications for each dog, and choose applicants based off the best possible fit for each dog.

More about this rescue

Big Paws of the Ozarks is a foster-based dog rescue in Northwest Arkansas. We aim to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dogs in our local community. We specialize in large breed dogs (over 40 pounds) but do get the occasional small paw in rescue too! We work closely with shelters and other rescues in our community to target and save dogs who are at risk of euthanasia or have found themselves falling between the cracks of our animal rescue community.
