Story
Hi my name Ezekiel. I am a Terrier/Schnauzer mix. I am super smart and willing to learn. I am crate, housetrain and leash train. I get along great with cats, small dogs. I would love a fenced in backyard to run and play with my toys. I can also keep you company if you want to watch a movie on the couch or go for a coffee break and you can get me a puppy latte or I can walk with you on trails. Would require a fenced in backyard to play and run. I am just a big teddy bear. If you are interested in Ezekiel he is located in Central Arkansas. He will come to you neuter and up to date on his shots. Transport is available for him through a transport company we use for a fee. If you are interested in Ezekiel please apply at www.arkansaschihuaharescue.org

Story
Ahoy my name is Ester. Arrrgh some say I look like a pirate, I say I look beautiful. I am part Terrier/Shepherd I love to run and play outside with my toys and litter mates. I can sit and shake but will need more training since I am still a puppy. I will be your best friend to go on walks or sit by your side as we watch a movie together. I can also cuddle with you in bed or go for a puppy latte. I can also take cute pictures as you can see by my profile photo. I am crate and house trained. I walk well on a leash. You really can’t go wrong with adopting me because my foster mom has put a lot of time and effort to making us the best puppies we can be for our forever home. She would require a fenced in backyard for her time to run and play. This puppy is located in Central Arkansas. Transport is available for this puppy with a local transport company for a fee plus adoption fee. If you are interested in Ester please fill out adoption form at www.arkansaschihuahuarescue.org

Story
Hello my name is Dante I am Lab/Pit Mix male. I am great with female dogs, kids, and cats. Dante loves the water he loves to swim, he loves to fetch just loves to get his exercise and go for long walks. Walks good on leash, is great inside the house however he can jump fences so he would need supervision if you have a fenced in backyard to keep him safe. He would do well in an apartment setting but would require his exercise time. Dante cannot be around any male dogs. He comes to you already neutered, up to date in shots and Heartworm negative. If you want to open your home to a loveable attractive dog like Dante please email this rescue group at www.arkansaschihuahuarescue.org Please note this dog is located in Arkansas. A generous donor has paid for Dante’s adoption fee all the adopter would have to pay is transport fee.

"Hi everyone! My name is Tyler. I am a 4-month-old Boxer/Labrador Retriever mix and I currently weigh about 17lbs. Everyone tells me that I am blind. I am not sure what that means because I have so much fun all day long so it must not affect me. I am an extremely happy-go-lucky, exuberant, and loving puppy despite my disability. Sometimes I bump into my friends or into some walls but I am really good about trying to learn my new environments to figure out where I am going. Once I know where you are, I am ready to play! I love to listen to all kinds of sounds and will even try to follow you wherever you go. Toys are a lot of fun to play with and I hope I can have so many toys at home. I am told that my forever family will shower me with love, treats, and comfy dog beds. I cannot wait to have a dog bed of my own, but even better, I would love my own spot on the couch right next to you. I am doing good with my leash, crate, and house training, and hope to learn even more tricks from you. I hope the fact that I am blind does not scare you because it does not scare me! I am so happy you can barely tell. I pride myself on how goofy, fun, and loving I am. Because of my exuberant personality, I would do best in a home with older children and/or other dogs who enjoy playtime as much as I do. I am excited to find my forever family and I am hoping that it's with you! Apply to adopt me today - www.homeforgooddogs.org! ❤️🐾 Tyler is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application.

Story
Introducing the whimsical WINSTON! 🌈☀️ Winston is a 1.5-year-old Aussie/Golden Retriever mix who is fully grown at about 40 lbs. Winston was rescued from Myrtle Beach, SC where he was found living as a stray, forced to fend for himself and find his own food. Since being rescued, Winston has realized what a great life he can have and has loved all of the TLC he has received. Winston has a ton of wonderful energy and would need a fenced-in backyard at home. In his foster's fenced-in yard he loves to run around and play with all kinds of toys. Not only would he love to play with toys, but he also loves to play with other dogs. He enjoys being the leader of the pack but also being a playful goofball. Winston is too eager to play with cats and for that reason, he should not go to a home with any present. He would also do best in a home with older children (or those with prior dog experience) who are big enough to romp around with him. Winston is working diligently on his leash, crate, and house training skills. He enjoys treats and learning new skills as he is extremely smart. Winston would love for his forever family to have a large fenced-in yard where he can run around and stretch his long athletic legs. Winston cannot wait to find his forever family, apply on our site to adopt him today - www.homeforgooddogs.org! ❤️🐾 Winston is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application.

Story
Meet the loving, loyal, couch potato, and perfect, Gracie 🐾💞 Gracie is a sweet 4-year-old American Bulldog who is fully grown at about 41 pounds (the perfect medium size). Gracie was rescued from Swainsboro, Georgia after her previous owner suddenly passed away. Gracie was registered as a certified emotional support animal with her previous owner and lives up to her name. When Gracie first arrived at Home for Good Dog Rescue she was nearly 15 pounds overweight. With the proper diet and exercise this beautiful girl shed those pounds in no time. Look at how beautiful she looks now! Gracie is truly a sweetheart. Gracie has such a gentle nature to her. Gracie adores people and thrives on their attention and affection. She even closes her eyes when you pet under her chin and just melts right into you. It is absolutely adorable. She is such a good snuggler too. Gracie would do really well in a home with children as she's simply the sweetest! Gracie prefers to go home without any dogs, where she can be the center of attention and the queen of her castle. She is super food-motivated and loves to learn. She already knows how to sit and cannot wait to learn some more tricks. She also walks well on a leash and enjoys going for walks around the neighborhood. Gracie sleeps through the night on a dog bed and is already housebroken too. While toys may not capture her interest, a good walk is all that's needed to make her happy! Gracie would not mind going home with cats too. Gracie cannot wait to find her forever home where she will be spoiled and loved each and every day. Apply on our site to adopt Gracie today - www.homeforgooddogs.org! ❤️🐾 Gracie is spayed, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application.
