Story
WE URGENTLY NEED AN ADOPTER OR FOSTER HOME FOR KENAI!!! PLEASE REACH OUT IF YOU ARE INTEREST OR SHARE KENAI TO HELP US HELP HIM!!! HIS TIME IS LIMITED!!! Kenai is currently located at a nearby high-kill-shelter that is overpopulated, understaffed, and running out of resources, making his time very limited. Though he is listed as 2 years old, we believe he is likely younger. He's a big boy at 65pds but walks pretty well on a leash. He receives lots of attention, is stunningly beautiful, even more so in-person. His coat is like velvet, so soft and rich and his eyes, you just melt in them. He is a little jumpy but is smart and a quick learning. Oh and very food motivated:) Kenai is a novelty dog at the shelter, meaning they have him as part of the socialization team and in playgroups with other dogs where he does extremely well even taking cue which is so impressive especially given his likely age and the shelter environment. He's also such a good boy that volunteers are allowed to walk him and LOVE to do so. What we would all LOVE (Kenai too) would be help rescuing him and getting him into a true forever home of his own! Please help us do that, please reach out soon!

Story
Meet Dillon. He's a sweet and energetic 3 year old pitbull mix at around 68 lbs. He absolutely loves love and is a huge cuddle bug. In the time we have had him, he has never known a stranger and wants scratches from every person he meets. He loves any chew toy he can get and will chase any ball you throw though he doesn't quite understand the concept of fetching yet. He is still working on his manners but is very quick to please. We think he would be happiest as a solo dog mainly because he wants all of your attention and love. For more information please message Tonya at 870-318-4161 or email t.maloy@yahoo.com Applications at helprescueark.org

Butterscotch was spotted at an abandoned house by Good Samaritan’ s who noticed she was way too thin.

She radiates happiness that she is being petted, loved, kept warm and cozy and valued again. Butterscotch had eye removed and updated pics just added. She was unable to see out of and it has not affected her at all. She sees wonderful with one. We love to hear her talk when she rolls in the floor, her sounds are precious!! She loves to run the fence with the neighbor dog and another foster dog. She has been a house and outside dog in the past and loves coming inside. She will be a wonderful loyal companion. Butterscotch deserves a home where she will never be left again. All of her vetting needs are scheduled this week. Hopefully she will be ready for a new home very soon!

Story
If we had to compare our gal Pickles to the real thing, this lady would definitely fall into sweet gherkin territory, as there ain't nothing salty or sour about our "glorious" gal. At two years old and weighing in at a respectable but still portable 45lbs, Pickles found herself in quite the conundrum when she landed herself in TN shelter listed as "urgent", meaning her number was close to being pulled. When CPR heard about how amazing and sweet Miss Princess Pickles was, we knew we had to intervene, and so Pickle's rescue story began. Pickles is currently in foster with three other doggos, two older kids and is thriving. Her foster family describes her as a total gem... fully house trained, great with everyone she meets, loves walks and does well on leash, A++ rated co-pilot, and has picked up basic commands with ease. She's even mastered the subtle art of manipulating the two leggers and if she thinks she's in trouble, she's nailed the contrite look and even gives the famous pitty smile. And we promise burying your face in her soft downy fat head at the end of a trying day just can't be beat. Miss Princess Pickles is ready to dazzle humans of her own with her intelligence and affection, and we guarantee her forever family will wonder how they ever survived without their very best girl. Read on to learn more about bringing a Princess of your very own home for good. Pickles is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. This dog has tested positive for heartworms and will complete treatment under our care. The adoption fee is $450 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival.
