Story
We all need a little Joy in our lives… and that is exactly what this girl brings you!
Meet Joy!
This sweet baby was let down by her previous humans. They abandoned her, tied out on a chain without food, water, or shelter. But it hasn’t changed her joyous outlook on life one bit! Miss Joy is super loving with people. She’s everything you could ever want in a dog—obedient, friendly, gentle, and affectionate. She walks beautifully on leash, loves people, and gets along great with other dogs... and cats too. She's just waiting for someone to choose her.
Joy was born about 12/06/20 and weighs in at 51 pounds of love and… well… JOY!! Because her previous owners did not take proper care of her, Joy is currently being treated for heartworms on slow kill method, which Artemis will continue to thoroughly fund to completion… yes, even after she’s adopted so you won’t have any added cost. Joy is otherwise up to date on her vaccines and already spayed.
This wonderful baby is MORE than ready to be treated with the love and dedication she deserves. Please consider giving her a chance to show you the amazing dog she was born to be.
Currently this sweet baby is with our rescue, The Artemis Project, in Arkansas.
We DO, however, transport monthly to the metro Detroit area of MI. Because we’re able to transport, we ARE able to accept adoption applications directly from residents of MI.
Why do we transport? Because animal overpopulation is severe in our region, and stray and unwanted dogs have very little chance of finding a home here. These babies are, however, at a high risk of being neglected, abused, abandoned, euthanized or even shot (it’s “the way things are done” for some people down here). YOU are truly one of the only safe and happy endings for the lucky ones we are able to rescue.
Upon approval of your adoption application, we will then transport your new furbaby to you in the metro Detroit area for just a small travel expense fee of $50 in addition to the adoption fee.
MICHIGAN RESIDENTS—>PLEASE CLICK THE LINK BELOW TO FILL OUT THE ADOPTION APPLICATION:

Before we can change your new furbaby’s status from "adoptable" to "adoption pending," the $50 transport fee must be paid to secure the adoption. At that time, we will stop accepting applications.
The entire adoption fee must be paid prior to the transport in order to ensure your new baby has a spot on the transport.
Thank you SO MUCH for giving a homeless Arkansas pup a chance at a real life with a family of their very own!
