Adopt-A-Stray

We are a few dedicated individuals who have formed Adopt-A-Stray in order to save many adoptable pets that would otherwise be euthanized in the shelters in our area. We routinely pull dogs and cats from the euthanasia list, as well as take in strays and owner surrenders as space allows.

Meet Joe

Meet Joe. He is currently at Paws in Prison (read more about that below). Joe’s story- Joe was adopted from a shelter (not from us) in 2022. His owners put him on chain in the backyard. And there he stayed. For years. Alone and neglected. Their excuse…because they unexpectedly had a 3rd child. No reason other than that. They did not keep Joe on heartworm prevention, so of course, he is heartworm positive, and is now undergoing treatment for that. Aside from all of that, Joe harbors no ill will. He loves people, wants to learn, and is eager to please. He deserves so much better. Joe is 4 years old and weighs 30 pounds. He’s some sort of Hound mix…Beagle? Foxhound? We don’t know for sure, but we do know he deserves the best home! Joe is good with other dogs. He is your typical hound as far as energy goes-he is a high energy dog! He’s so cute and good that we hope he gets an avalanche of applications. But if you plan to banish him to a chain in the backyard, please don’t apply. He’s not for you. In fact, we don’t have any dogs for you. Joe is currently at Paws in Prison, an 8 week program where dogs are matched up with inmates. The dogs are with their inmate trainers 24/7. They work on house training, leash walking, basic commands etc. They meet weekly with a dog trainer. Joe will graduate at the beginning of May. We hope to have a home lined up and waiting for 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.
