Story
Riley Roscoe, born in January or February of 2015 is a tricolor, smooth coat collie/border collie mix. He is a very smart boy and has had extensive training over the years. He was adopted from us when he was about 6 months old and was returned to us 3 years later when the male member of the adoptive family, who had Alzheimer’s, became abusive toward him. In time he began developing his self-confidence again and began to lose his fear of men. Riley has some obvious border collie traits and the second adopter did not have the experience required to channel these traits in to positive qualities, so after a year he was again returned to us. He gets along well with the dogs in his foster home but can act aggressively toward a strange dog he does not know. He is not good with cats. He has now caught his second skunk. The first time he took the live skunk to his adopter’s back door for her. The second time, at his foster home, he caught one but another dog probably killed it and a third dog was carrying it around the yard. He was the one that got sprayed though. Riley weighs about 55 pounds. He is quite smart, wants to please and learns quickly. He rides well in a car and enjoys walking on a leash but does like to pull and will behave aggressively towards dogs he meets while out on the walk. Riley is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, is heartworm negative and is being kept on heartworm and flea and tick prevention to maintain his good health. If you would like to foster or adopt Riley, please complete the first step in the adoption process by filling out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember our organization is staffed completely by volunteers. Please Note: All applications are processed in the order received, but an adoption is made to the best application received for each of our animals. All applicants must provide a vet reference on the adoption application. If you are adopting a dog from ARFA, a fenced in yard for the dog will be required. Home visits often occur with each adoption. ARFA has the right to deny adoption to any applicant for any reason without explanation. Please remember that the adoption donation is not for the purchase of the dog, but rather to help cover the medical costs of all dogs in our care. THE FINE PRINT 1. Animal Rescue Fund Arkansas reserves the right to deny any application, for any reason without explanation to the applicant. 2. You understand that we often take many applications on the same animal and that they are processed in the order that they come in. An application is in no way a reservation for any animal or a guarantee that you will be selected to adopt the animal. 3. If your application Is approved, you will be asked to sign a separate adoption contract. 4. Once the trial period is over, usually 1 week unless there are special circumstances, the adoption donation cannot be returned to you for any reason. It will have been used to help rescue another homeless animal and is no longer available therefore, if you return the dog to us for any reason, you will not be refunded your donation. Please remember that if you no longer want the dog, it must be returned to A.R.F.A. 5. If the animal you want to adopt is placed in another home, you can transfer your application to another A.R.F.A. animal without completing additional paperwork. 6. You understand that this is a rescued pet. We rarely have any information about their past life circumstances. We have all animals examined by a vet, brought up to date on shots, given their rabies vaccine, spayed/neutered (If old enough), wormed and checked for heartworms and if positive begin treatment. We do our best to ensure that we are placing healthy pets but can make no guarantee to the health or temperament of this pet, and vet expenses are the responsibility of the adoptive family from the date of the adoption. We require that you take the pet to a vet within one week of adoption for a check-up and to allow your vet to get a baseline for your new pet’s health

Story
Meet Kage, the ultimate good boy who's just so darn cute! This gentleman is a pro at house living, fully potty trained, and a master at walking on a leash and harness. He's a social butterfly, getting along famously with other dogs and loving those backyard playdates with his pals. Kage is a stunning mix of Lab and Border Collie, the perfect blend of intelligence and family-friendliness. He's just the right size, like a mini Lab or a slightly larger Border Collie. When you find two fantastic things that go together like peanut butter and jelly, you celebrate! Kage is that winning combo, and now you can celebrate by making him a cherished member of your family. His temperament is pure gold - sweet as honey with everyone he meets. Now, here's the scoop: Kage is a special needs pup, and he's looking for someone who can be with him about 90 percent of the time. Storms, rain, and loud noises send him into severe panic attacks, and he's been known to chew through walls when anxiety strikes. Crates aren't his jam because of past storm-related trauma. He's also dealing with seizures, so he's on medication for that. Kage would thrive in a local adoption, and he's best as a single dog with no cats or small animals around. He's a wonderful companion for older kids, and he loves nothing more than cuddles and long walks. He's got the whole house training thing down too. His foster mom adores him and has prepared him for his forever family as best she can. Now, the ball is in your court. Remember, when you adopt Kage, you're not just bringing home a good boy; you're giving him the loving, understanding home he deserves. Don't shop, adopt, because Kage's life depends on it! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Hello, Missy is a great pet! She is very loving and sweet, and she is command trained. She needs a lot of outside time/attention. She is used to being able to run and play as she wants! I have recently moved and can’t have her her in the community I live in. I was unaware until I arrived here. I have had her since she was 6 weeks old, she is now a year and 2 months old. She is very loyal. She is a high energy dog but has no special needs. I’m not asking for a rehome fee just a wonderful loving family for her. She also loves going to pet stores and getting a cookie for being good. She loves baths, and gives no trouble! She’s a snuggler, and very friendly! She grew up around babies and older kids, as well as dogs, cats and an entire farm. Being said, she is great with all people and other animals!

Story
Let me introduce you to the sisters Roxie and Lucy. Both dogs were rescued by the Humane Society of Faulkner County, Arkansas, and are thought to be a mix of blue heeler and Australian shepherd. They came from a litter of 11 pups that were dumped on a rural county road, and we adopted them in December of 2018. Both dogs love each other’s company but are happy and playful when by themselves and relish any attention provided to them. I know they would love a new “forever home” together, but they also are fine being by themselves, especially when given any kind of attention. Roxie is the more adventuresome of the pair. She loves to sit on the back porch watching the squirrels and wishing she were fast enough to catch one. Lucy on the other hand is content to lay on the back porch and nap until she hears us come home or some other commotion in the neighborhood. They are both excellent with children (we have two young grandkids) and while they’ll bark at a stranger, it takes only a minute or two for them to cozy up to you in anticipation of getting petted. We trained them at the Little Rock Dog Club, and they are very smart and responsive to verbal and hand commands. They have never chewed any property inside our home (we do provide inside chew toys) and are house trained; they do not climb up on furniture either. They slept in dog kennels at first but have been sleeping on dog beds in our bedroom for years. They do like to occasionally chew on our outside drip irrigation spikes for our landscaping, it must be the right texture for their teeth. Both dogs were chipped by the Humane Society, are healthy and just finished their annual wellness checkup at the veterinarian on September 6, 2023. They are current on their rabies, Bordetella, and lepto vaccines, and negative for heartworms (on Heartgard) and wear Seresto collars for flea/tick control. Roxie weighs 63 lbs. and Lucy 65 lbs. Now, why are we wanting to help them find new homes? It’s because of our extensive travels since our retirement. We’ve never boarded them, rather we had to count on neighbors or friends to feed them and they are not getting the exercise nor the amount of attention that they need with our absences. It’s hard, but we believe that they need a loving home for them together or individually that will help keep them healthy and happy. The adoption donation is $250individually or $300 for both dogs. A fenced yard is required. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here.

Story
Courtesy Listing Tom's owner passed away at the end of June 2024. Tom is approximately 1 year and 4 months old and weighs 37 pounds. He appears to be an Australian Cattle Dog/Lab mix. Tom enjoys a lot of long naps and he is not a barker, but he howls when sad. Tom plays great with the small dogs in his foster home. He is loving, loyal, sincere, and playful with the adults and older child (12) in the home. He has shown some fear and some aggression toward the smaller child who is 4. Tom prefers being inside most of the day but tolerates being outdoors. He does enjoy going outdoors to play; he loves fetch! He does not know how to walk well with a harness and leash but he is learning! Tom has a vet appointment on July 23 and will be brought up to date on vaccinations and heartworm tested. Tom's adoption donation is $250. If you are interested in this awesome guy, please fill out an online application, the first step in this process as we want to be sure he goes to a loving and responsible home. You can find a copy of that application here. An application does not obligate you to take him, but it does show that you are serious about the process. Please remember our organization is staffed completely by volunteers.
