Story
This is a litter of 10 puppies that need a furever home. They are 6 weeks today. Their mom and dad are listed in the pictures and also are adoptable. These pups need to be the first to go though. The mom got pregnant before we could get her spayed. My daughter and I have been taking care of them since birth. They are very sweet and loving and have been around kids and some adult dogs and cats. Right now they are inside the house in a play pen full of shavings. Theyare quickly out growing this. They are completely weened and on dry puppy food.

Story
Charlotte is a sweet and lovable purebred Chi. She is almost 9 months old. She loves everyone, but is extremely loyal to her person; She loves to play with other dogs, big and small and has never shown any aggression. She is still a very active puppy and needs exercise. Charlotte would be best in a home with a fenced in yard. She loves going outside. She isn’t crazy about being in a crate, but with some training and patience she would get used to it. That is the only time I’ve seen her have anxiety. She is potty pad trained as well.

Redbone Coonhound/Labrador Retriever

Male, Puppy
Farmington, AR

Story
Rhett is approx. 7 months old. He is a redbone coonhound/lab mix. He is socialized, and kennel and house trained. Rhett is a sweet and extremely gentle dog, but is also high energy and loves his play time! He loves to be outside unless it’s too cold. Needs a fenced-in back yard, 6ft fence. We believe Rhett would be happiest in a home with another dog/dogs or with someone that is home most days! Loves women, but takes his time warming up to men.
