Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Griffin!  Griffin is a 6.5 month-old Australian Shepard/Lab/Pittie mix with the biggest heart and the gentlest little soul. He can be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, he is pure love and snuggles. He’s the kind of puppy who plays hard for a bit and then fully commits to a long nap like it’s his job. He’s also been learning leash manners and is doing great, even if he occasionally gets a little too excited and does the cutest puppy stumbles. He loves other dogs and does great with them. He is great with kids and cats! He really is a special little guy.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Gilbert and his siblings were rescued with their mom from the streets of Arkansas. These adorable pups are now taking applications. Meet them and fall in love! Today’s field trip pup was Gilbert — whom we quickly nicknamed Hopper because he bounces around like the cutest little bunny puppy. And honestly… it fits him perfectly. Here’s what we learned about this sweet boy today: • Rode like a champ in the car • Excellent on the leash — walked with ease and curiosity • Explored the park and field with happy, playful energy • Snuggled up during our picnic and relaxed beautifully • Very smart — listens well even with goofy puppy excitement • Incredibly sweet personality — loves being near his people • Goofy in the best way — his playful hops will make you smile instantly Gilbert has that perfect mix of playful energy and calm snuggles. He can run, explore, and bounce… then happily curl up right next to you. He’s the kind of puppy who will grow into an amazing companion for a family looking for both fun and affection. This adorable little bunny-hopper is going to make someone an excellent puppy and lifelong best friend. If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, playful pup with a heart of gold — Gilbert might just be your guy. Gilbert is a friendly and playful little guy! He's good with kids and dogs.  Apply here: https://projecthopearf.rescuegroups.org/forms/form?formid=6707Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 6, 2026, 5:41 pm

I am 30lbs and I am looking for my forever home. Adoption Donation: $450 Rex is a true-to-his-breed Australian Shepherd with brains, energy, and heart to spare. This handsome boy thrives when he has plenty of attention, activity, and mental stimulation to keep him happy.  He’s a smart pup who already knows commands like sit and stay, and he’s eager to keep learning. Rex would do best with an active home ready to give him the exercise and engagement he craves.  If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent companion who’s always ready for adventure, Rex is your guy!
