About

Meet Gary

2/11/25 Gary is currently enrolled in the Paws in Prison program. He started there on 2/10 and will be there for 8 weeks. During that time he will be with an inmate trainer who will work on the basics with him (basic obedience, leash walking, house training, etc.). They meet weekly with a dog trainer. When Gary graduates, he will have his Canine Good Citizen Certificate. We hope he has a home waiting for him when he graduates in April! Gary was dumped at a business where the workers fed and cared for him until they gained his trust. Once he realized humans were not a threat, he morphed into the sweetest, most affectionate young man. At approx. 6 months old, he is almost completely housebroken and crate trained. We believe he is a Lab mix. Gary sleeps in his crate all night and doesn't make a peep. He is learning to walk on a leash and to ride in the car without being scared. He wants nothing more than to be loved on and talked to. He absolutely LOVES playing with his foster siblings (male and female) and is the submissive type. He is not food / toy aggressive, nor is he a jumper, so he would do just fine in a home with younger children. Gary is the quiet type and seldom barks, so he would be an ideal candidate for apartment/condo life. Gary would LOVE to be adopted into a home with another dog that likes to play and wrestle, but he's told us that he will be happy as long as he has a safe place to lay his head at night, food (he LOVES to eat),a few toys/treats and most importantly a person or family to love him. This is all he asks for.   Gary promises to be a good boy and best friend who will love you with everything he's got! He is neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Located in Arkansas, but transport is available.
