Story
Beautiful, Inside and Out! That’s me, I’ve been named appropriately, “Bella”. If I do say so myself, I am “Beautiful” as my name means in 8 different languages. As a 5 year old Lab/pit bull terrier mix weighing approx. 40#.  I have what it take to be a great companion. The young “Chippies” have nothing over me. I’ve learned from the best and eager to please. Crate trained, house trained and leash trained, there is a lot that can be said for a “Mature” girl with a HUGE HEART for her people. “What else can we do together to pass the time and bond?”, you ask. Well, let me tell you. This time of year SWIMMING is my #1 love next to my person. Then there is Playing Fetch. Finally, Playing Fetch that includes, you guessed it, SWIMMING!!!!! As the weather cools, I also love the “GFAW” words.. what’s that?? “Go For A Walk”. Then there is the “GFAR”. Have you guessed what that means? “Go For A Ride”, could split a "Pup-a-Chino"! Ok, I think you are getting the handle of my personality. Then the finale test is “TANWMP”. What? YIKES! Do I have you stumped???? “Take A Nap With My Person”! Ha, Ha, Ha!!!! Life is Good! I do have a down side I must admit. My past was not always kind. Although I have been around other dogs, I sometimes am unpredictable due to my unknown history. So, I need to be a single dog to love and cherish my owners by myself and a fenced yard to ensure no mishaps occur with other dogs. I can walk past other dogs and remain VERY WELL BEHAVED, but for some reason, I just don’t tolerate living or spending time with other dogs. I ENJOY “MY PEOPLE” and “WANT THEM ALL TO MYSELF”! Guess that makes me a “People Pleaser”!!! So there you have it.. I didn’t hold back my true self, hide my flaws or pull any paw punches. I am “Bella”, a simple gal that is a LMP - “Love My People” ATMS - “All To My Self” kind of Gal!  Bella has been spayed and is ready for a home of her own. The adoption fee is $275  To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org. Fill the form out completely, print, scan and email back to mollysplace@verizon.net. You must obtain pre-approval prior to visiting the dog or cat. Adoptions fees include the following:    spay/neuter surgery,  microchip and registration,  age appropriate vaccinations,  initial dewormings,  Activyl for fleas,  tested for FeLV and FIV (cats only),  bubble bath prior to going home (dogs only) WE do not "HOLD" animals without an approved application and a non-refundable/non-transferable paid adoption fee.  Adoptions are on a first come, first serve basis.  We can not send extra pictures.  WE do not ship, you must pick up the pet.  Kitties must be transported in a secure cat carrier.   Pooches require a "martingale" collar and a non-retractable leash.

Story
Hi, everypawdy! My name is Grace. I'm a beautiful, loving soul who is looking for a family to call my own. Walks, runs, and hikes are a few of my favorite hobbies. Attention and being pet are necessities as well, of course! A good cuddle at the end of a long day will fill me with joy. My foster family says I'm smart as a whip...I already know how to sit, heel, halt, and more! A good treat and some cuddles are enough to motivate to learn like a pro. I love being near my favorite humans, and playing with my favorite toys. If you want a reason to smile every single day, then I am the pup for your family. If you are interested in adopting Grace, please fill out an adoption application at https://bfp.org/rescue/ and email us with questions: adopt@bfp.org. Location: TULSA, OK

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

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.&#226&#128&#188&#239&#184&#143Lola was set to graduate Paws in Prison this week and go to her new home, BUT the adopters had to back out. We really need to find her a home. We had another dog lined up to take her place at Paws in Prison but her not being adopted is really throwing a wrench into plans. PLEASE SH@RE. Yes she’s a bully breed, but she is a wonderful dog. She doesn’t ask for much. She’s the perfect size at about 30-35 pounds. She’s about 2 years old. She is good with kids and other dogs. She’s gone through basic training at Paws in Prison. This tiny queen is absolutely adorable with her partially blue eyes. She followed a kid home from a store and no owner ever claimed her. She had a horrible case of mange (as seen in the last few photos) but she has been treated and her hair is growing back in nicely. She still has some patchy spots that need to fill in but she's almost there. Lola is a silly, fun loving, happy girl. She gets along great with other dogs and she is very playful. And she has the CUTEST underbite ever! She has been fully vetted and is ready to find her family! 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.Harrisburg, PA 2am FridaysPort Jervis, NJ 5am FridaysSouthington, CT 8am FridaysEast Hartford, CT 11am Fridays To apply, please fill out the adoption app: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 email apps.aasr@gmail.com with any questions.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Our typical adoption fee for puppies younger than 6 months old is $400, and for older puppies and adults, the usual fee is $350.

Story
Have you heard of the saying “Good things come to those who wait”? Well, I have and I know someone has been waiting for “ME”, and I for them! I know the wait will be well worth it for the both of us! I’m Otto, a 1 year old boy weighing about 60# (but may fill out yet), with beautiful CHOCOLATE facial marking to highlight my personality filled face, and another spot on my “Rump”!! Being 1 of “7” in a litter turned into a shelter, we were lonely, lost and afraid. Fortunately, we were all scooped up by “Molly’s Place Rescue”. My 2 brothers and I are still waiting for a home. Our “4” sisters were adopted, but as you know, Male dogs are the Best! No, really! They don’t call female dogs “Bitches” without reason!! HA! HA! Just kidding, my sisters were OK, for girls! Anyway, I’m really a goofy, fun-loving, well-behaved boy said to have a FANTASTIC Temperament, and a real HAM! I’m good with all adults, kids, love other dogs AND EVEN CATS!!! REALLY!!!! Yes, I’m bragging about myself! Initially I’m shy, but warm up quick once feeling safe. Yep, I have it all. Thought to be a Boxers and Border Terriers mix, I’ve inherited the best of both very intelligent breeds. They are also known for being very people oriented, affectionate and great family pets. We LOVE OUR PEOPLE! Otto is German in origan, meaning “Wealth and Fortune”! I have a “Wealth” of love to give and it would be “My Fortune” to have you as my owner! So come on and Let’s share some time! Otto is waiting for YOU! To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org. Fill the form out completely, print, scan and email back to mollysplace@verizon.net. You must obtain pre-approval prior to visiting the dog or cat.

Story
The name Casper can be traced back to the “Old Testament” meaning “TREATSURE”! I’m truly a Treasure, I’m Casper, a 1 year old boy that is gentle demeanor, “Smart as a Whip”, Well behaved and have a Fantastic Temperament. At about 60#, I’m 1 of “7” pups turned in at a shelter. Scared and afraid, we only had each other. Lucky for us,” Molly’s Place Rescue” stepped up and brought us into rescue. Our sisters were adopted, but my “2” brothers and I are still here, waiting for “Just the right person/family”. My photo does not do me justice. I’m white with short wiry hair on my face and a little tan circle around one eye and a few tan dots on my ears. These areas will probably darken up as I mature more and fill out. My eyes are deep, dark and endearing! Thought to be a Boxers and Border Terriers mix, I’ve inherited the best of both very intelligent breeds. They are also known for being very people oriented, affectionate and great family pets. We LOVE OUR PEOPLE! I’m great with other dogs, CATS, adults and Even KIDS! Heck, what more do you want? Although I still have some learning, my temperament is soft, calm and initially shy. Once in my comfort zone, I do warm up quickly befriending all who will take “my paw”! No experience needed for me, not even a fenced yard. Walks, rides or a game of Fetch will help me learn and bond with you for life. I’m Casper and I’m waiting to be “YOUR TREASURED Boy”!

Story
Hello there! I’m called “Bumble”. You know, the Gigantic, white furred Yeti with long pointed fangs in the movie “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer”! NO, just Kidding! I am Bumble, BUT a lover of all things. Young, old, humans, other dogs and even cats! I’m a humble boy who loves to play, fetch, eager to please and even tempered! Shy at first when out of my comfort zone, I do warm up quick and give/take affection freely. At just 1 year old, about 60#, I do have a lot to learn. Having been 1 of “7” turned into a shelter at a young age, we stayed huddled close for strength. Scared and unsure of the future, Molly’s Place stepped in and brought us to rescue. Although my sisters, “4”, have been adopted, we “3” boys are still looking for just the right home to call our own. I’ve heard “Good things come to those that wait!” Well, I know there is a plan for my future and I’m a patient boy in nature yet ready anytime to meet my special family. Looking at my brothers, I must say I am the MOST HANSOME of the 3! Snowy white, wiry hair around my face, deep dark expressive eyes, black button nose and a smile that can light up the night when playing and romping. Being “Goofy” comes natural to me, but thought to be Boxer/Border Terrier mix, I do have intelligence and brain power to learn be trained. No fenced in yard required nor prior dog experience required, just down and dirty time, Love to give and experiences to allow me to be the best I can be. How about meeting. I’m Bumble, and I’ll “Bee” all you want me to “Bee” and more! To submit an adoption application, visit mollysplacerescue.org.
