Story
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. River~A Paws in Prison pup Young man River. And goodness, he can move like one! But he’s making up for lost time…the months he spent chained to a tree in the backyard. When his owner moved, River got left behind. Still on the chain. With nothing and no one. But thanks to one person’s determined heart, he was rescued and sent to us. He is a very friendly, bouncy guy. He smiles all the time and loves everyone…other dogs, adults, kids and cats. He is house trained. River is very smart and wants to please. He’s grateful for any kindness he gets. We believe River is a mountain cur mix or a catahoula mix, about 1 year old and 40 pounds. He has a cute little nub tail, a beautiful brindle coat and one of the flashiest smiles you’ll ever see! Despite spending montjs chained to a tree, River is a very good boy. He is a very friendly, happy go lucky boy who is eager to please and love anyone who is kind to him. River is currently at Paws in Prison, where he is paired up with 2 inmate trainers. He’s been there for about a week now, so he has 6 or 7 weeks left. While there, the inmates work with him everyday on basic obedience, leash manners, and some tricks! They meet weekly with a certified dog trainer. When he graduates, he will have his canine good citizen certificate. You can’t ask for more than that! River is a gem and someone will be so lucky to adopt him! Located in Arkansas, but transport is available. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them at one of the following times/locations.
