Story
Max is 4 years old, only needs his yearly rabies, & could also use a good grooming. He doesn’t like his ears or nails to be handled & he’s too big to fight. He was a humane custody intake at the Philly SPCA which is where I adopted him. He has both physical & emotional scars. He’s a bit hand-shy & seems to like women more than men, but will warm up to men slowly. He has a BIG bark & it’s initially very scary but only barks until he has a chance to sniff you & then he’s done. He’s 120 lbs of good boy. He needs someone experienced with big dogs. Solid on basic manners. He does NOT like other dogs. This is not negotiable. He was fighting other dogs in his last home. He likes my cat just fine. He’s house trained. I have a progressive neuromuscular disease & my muscle function has declined recently + a double whammy of osteopenia. I’ve fallen 2x in the last few weeks taking Max out. He needs someone who’ll give this GOOD BOY the life he deserves. I’ll send all food/toys/gear/crate-rare used

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.1/6/25 Athena is currently enrolled at Paws in Prison learning all the things! She works daily with inmates on the basics and even a few tricks! Each week the inmates meet with a certified dog trainer. After 8 weeks she will graduate with her Canine Good Citizen Certificate. She started in December and will graduate in February. Here's what Paws in Prison has to say about her- 'When Athena is finally getting the spoiling she deserves, she won’t say a word about it. But there will be signs. She is a very happy dog these days. Athena is a mix of German shepherd and Husky, and she has one blue eye and two pointy ears to prove it. She’s about 1 year old and weighs about 50-60 pounds. Athena is a full-fledged beauty. Very nice girl with an upbeat disposition. She engages easily and wants to be included. She’s also very smart and pays attention to everything. Love her and she’ll love you back ten times more.'  Her backstory- Athena is a survivor. She was an owned dog, and her mom really loved her. However, the home was not a happy one for mom, because she was suffering through domestic violence. Things escalates, and Athena's mom had to take her kids and get out quickly. Unfortunately, the place she was going to did not allow pets, so she had to leave Athena behind. The abuser then chained Athena to a tree. There she sat, for about 6 weeks or so, with no shelter. Sometimes, he threw a little food out to her, but most days, he didn't. She was hungry thirsty, cold, and most of all...lonely. But she's safe now and lonely no more.  Athena is a very good girl. She minds very well and is eager to learn. She is very receptive to affection and training as well. Athena was already spayed when we got her in rescue, but sadly, she did test positive for heartworms. While she is at Paws in Prison, she will start her 30 days of doxycycline pre-treatment, then will be treated for heartworms after she graduates the program. She will be available for adoption after she is treated. Athena is only about a year old and in good health otherwise, so we don't expect any complications, and she should make a full recovery. She is reportedly 1/2 German Shepherd, 1/2 Husky. About 50-60 pounds. She is good with other dogs. 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.

I won't go into details; I'll just leave it at that. They have been in rescue for about 5 weeks now. They are ready to find homes of their own. We don't know their breed- they are very mixed and likely have different dads. They are about 3 1/2 months old and seem to be medium size. They are all sweet, slightly shy babies who love affection and play time. Please consider one of these babies for your family! Will probably be on the smaller side of medium sized, 30-35 pounds when full grown. He is neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and started on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

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.It's almost Valentine's Day! Are you looking for that special someone? Well look no further... here she is. Her name is Sweetie. 4 legs are better than 2. She's probably a much better kisser than any human you'll find too. Ok but really....check this beauty out! Sweetie couldn’t be a more appropriate name for her. She is the sweetest dog who just loves to cuddle and be close to you. She seems to be about a year old and we believe is a German Shepherd mix. She was originally found as a stray with her 2 brothers, and taken in by a good samaritan. She weighs about 65 pounds. She has seen the cats in her foster home and will just look at them.She gets along great with other dogs. She is a very gentle dog and I think would do good with kids of all sizes. She walks fairly well on a leash but could use some more work on it. She likes to sleep in bed but would be just as happy with a couch or dog bed. She is taller than she looks in her pics. She is a very smart dog and is food motivated. Her first day here she would not sit when given the command but by the next morning she would sit on command. She does fairly well with stay also. She is still getting used to having to be on a leash to go outside and having to do her business while on a leash (she previously was in a foster home where the majority of her time was spent outside, so going out on a leash/not in a fenced area is new to her). She has had a few accidents inside but I am sure once she gets used to having to be on a leash while going or in a home that has a fence, the accidents will stop. She's a smart girl, she'll get it! We have tons more pictures of her but can only put 4 on this site. Email us or check us out on facebook to see the other pictures.  She is spayed, UTD on vaccines, microchipped, heartworm negative, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. In New England.
