My personality

My story

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

My name is Ashton. My mother was pregnant with us and it was obvious that we were soon to be born. The person that my mother lived with took her far away from all she knew as "home" and pushed her out with nothing, no shelter, no food not even water.
A kind man found her on his land and knew that we were about to be born any day. He took mother to his home and the six of us were born 2 days later. The man had a friend that knew about Greg King Canine Recovery Dog Rescue so they were contacted and that began our best lives.....we are all fat, healthy, vaccinated and ready for a real home, where we will be loved and cherished and never have to worry about a growling tummy because there's not enough to eat and never have to worry about what happened to mother.....and toys.....we love toys, but food and vaccinations HAVE to be bought first with the money donated to the rescue, so there aren't many toys, but Daina and Latrell have promised that our new homes will have more toys than we have ever dreamed of.

The total cost of adoption is $175. If you pick up from our rescue in Texarkana, Texas, there will not be a transport fee, so adoption would only cost $100 which helps cover the costs of vaccinations, Vet visits and puppy food.

Only the $75 transport fee is due to secure transport from our rescue in Texarkana, Texas to one of the 7 locations on our transport route. The $100 adoption fee is not due until you pick him/her up on the transport date at the location you select. You also have the option to designate someone else to pick up your pet.

Please watch our reels on Facebook; Search "Greg King & Greg King Canine Recovery"


Greg King Canine Recovery dog rescue is located at 484 Farren Road in Texarkana, Texas 75503. Once a month, we transport all pre-adopted dogs and puppies to the following 7 cities. We are a foster based rescue, but due to a lack of available fosters, we have approximately 75 with us here on our 2.2 acres that Greg, Daina and I (Latrell) love and care for until they can be adopted.

Poplar Bluff, Missouri
Arnold, Missouri
Springfield, Illinois
Bloomington, Illinois
Rockford, Illinois
Joliet, Illinois
Kalamazoo, Michigan

Please contact me, Latrell King, at 903-280-4233 for adoption questions. Please send a text before calling and then you can also leave a voicemail because I don't usually have my phone with me when I am taking care of the puppies, cleaning kennels, feeding, vaccinating, etc. I will return your call or respond to your message ASAP.

Once you complete an application, we will process it to get it approved. If it is approved, I will send you the "Approval Letter" via text followed by the "Transport Roster Information form"

The Transport Roster Information form will guide you to select your pickup location and provide links to pay the $75 Transport fee. The adoption fee is not due until you pick up your new dog/puppy on the scheduled transport day.

Following are ballpark estimates of our arrival at each transport location. I will also send a live Google Map link so that adoptive parents can follow our travel progress from one pick up location to the next.

More about this rescue

We are a 501(c)(3) dog rescue in Texarkana, Texas which is in Bowie county. There is such an overwhelming need for rescue in the counties that we serve, because there are no spay/neuter laws in effect and there are so many dogs and puppies that are dumped or they are born without anyone to care for them.
We are foster based because we only have 2 acres and 17 kennel areas here at 484 Farren Rd. There are only 3 of us to love, feed, clean, vaccinate and do everything else that's necessary for God's ONLY creation that gives unconditional love. We always have another 80-100 in foster care that we also provide food and resources for. Our dog food bill alone is approx. $3000 per month and each transport costs $2000 to $2500. Please consider donating to Greg King Canine Recovery. I ask God's wisdom and guidance in the use of every dollar donated.
