My story

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

**Rufus was enrolled in the Paws in Prison Program for 8 weeks of obedience training. He will be at the North Central Unit in Calico Rock. He will be crate trained, learn manners, and he will learn lots of tricks as well! Rufus will be looking for a forever home before he graduates in early December, so if you are interested in meeting him, please contact us!

Rufus is one happy and well behaved pup. He was adopted from us as a puppy and just returned because he killed their chickens, so no chickens for him! Otherwise, he loves everything and everybody. He is good with kids and very good with other dogs. He is smart as a whip too. He will sit upon command and is housetrained. He also loves booty scratches and affection. Rufus would make a great family pet or companion for any dog lover. If you would like more information, please contact our shelter at 870-269-5200 or go to our website at schspets.org and complete an adoption application and someone will contact you for a meet and greet.

More about this shelter

The Stone County Humane Society is a 501(C)(3) private organization, not a government entity that was formed in 1999. We rescue dogs and cats and are a no-kill shelter but we are not an open take in facility. We are currently operating from our new shelter building recently completed in August 2016 and a cat cottage. Our organization is managed by a volunteer board of 10 individuals and a full-time paid employee shelter manager that handles the day to day operations, and three part-time paid employees that feed and care for the animals and keep the facility clean. Most of our daily operations are funded by proceeds from a Second Chance Shop in town and donations from individuals. We also provide low cost spay/neuter clinics to the people of our county with help from a local vet.
