My 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.Baxter If you’re looking for an easy going, fun loving, people person pup, Baxter is your guy! He loves to be a part of everything, and will follow everyone, galloping along with his lanky caribou/ rabbit like gate. Once he catches up, he will shower you with puppy kisses and sit on your feet. Although he has a stub tail, it wags all the time! Baxter is a growing boy who just wants to be apart of the fun. He is a sweet pea who wants all the love and cuddles you have to give. He is about 3 1/2 months old, and about 13 lbs. Once he grows into his feet, he is estimated to be around 50ish pounds. He is very mixed, mom and dad’s breed are unknown. Baxter is doing well with crate and house training. He has also been sleeping through the night! Interested in cats in a playful, not harmful, kind of way. He is a very gentle pup, and is young enough to learn to be gentle with children. He is good with other dogs.  Neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. In New England To apply, please fill out the adoption app: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 email apps.aasr@gmail.com with any details 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. This includes microchip, spay/neuter,  up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, dewormings, flea/tick treatment, and heartworm test (if over 6 months old) as well as heartworm treatment if they test positive. There is a transport fee of $150 per dog, depending on the transporter. We use Pack Leaders Rescue Dog Transport most often, but also use Hearts Transport as well on occasion.
