My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

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.



This is Brody! He is a very striking guy with those ice blue eyes. He is still learning that each meal is not his last, due to his rough start in life (see history below). Brody is a happy, playful guy. He loves to play with the other fosters. He is still a little more reserved with new people as he is still learning that people are okay after all. He is healing from the trauma of being dumped at a young, vulnerable age. Brody is built differently than his sisters. He is shorter in height, with a longer body, similar to a basset hound. He does howl occasionally! He loves to play with his toys and fellow fosters and is very food motivated, making him easy to train! He does like his naps. He is doing well with his leash training. He is a mix breed dog, probably some type of hound mix. He gets along well with other dogs and kids. He does need time to adjust to new surroundings and people as he is shy to new things. He has not been around cats. He is about 4 months old and weighs about 20 lbs. His adult weight will likely be around 40-45 lbs.

History: He was dumped on the side of a rural road with his litter mates at just about 5 weeks old. They were out there alone for more than a month. He and two of his siblings had evaded all attempts at being captured while others in the litter disappeared . They were scared , hungry and covered in fleas and ticks! We had severe storms in our area during that time, and they sheltered in the storms under an old set of steps which barely covered them. They really fought to survive out there on their own, and they are very grateful to be safe, loved, and well fed in their foster home.

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 Fridays
Port Jervis, NJ 5am Fridays
Southington, CT 8am Fridays
East Hartford, CT 11am Fridays

He is neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and started on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

More about this rescue

Adopt-A-Stray was founded in Jan. 2010, by Kelley Prichard. Since then, it has grown to include a few wonderful volunteers who work very hard to help ensure that our pets are place in loving, forever homes. We are based in Alexander, AR, but we list all of our available pets in the northeast. We work with several different transporters to get our babies to their new homes in the northeast once they are adopted. The transporter we use most often Pack Leaders (www.plrdogtransport.com). All pets are given age appropriate vaccinations before they leave. Every pet is seen by our vet prior to transport. If you see a pet listed that interests you, please be sure to read the description thoroughly and inquire to the email address listed. Thank you for considering a rescue dog!
