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.6/16/25 Meet Jean! She is a mid sized mixed breed lady who is a young adult/older puppy. She weighs about 38 pounds. She is friendly, sweet, and enjoys playing with other dogs. We have listed her as a Shepherd/Lab mix however that is purely a guess. If a DNA test was done, I can almost guarantee it would show that she is a mix of many breeds! We pulled Jean from a local shelter where she very likely would have been euthanized due to space as she was at a high kill shelter.  Thankfully we had spots open at the Arkansas Paws in Prison program, so we were able to pull her and place her at Paws in Prison.    Since she was pulled from a shelter, we do not have a lot of background/info on her yet but we will continue to update this post as we receive more details and info from her trainers at Paws in Prison she began at Paws in Prison on 6/6/25 so she will graduate the week of August 4th. We hope to have a home ready and waiting for her at that time!   Paws in prison is an amazing program where dogs are paired with inmates whom they are with 24/7 for 8 weeks. The inmates work with the dogs everyday on basic training, basic obedience, house training, leash training, etc. and even some tricks! They meet weekly with a certified dog trainer. This is a wonderful program and so beneficial for the dogs and the inmates!   Stay tuned for more details on Jean! She is spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.  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, NY 5am Fridays  Southington, CT 8am Fridays  East Hartford, CT 11am Fridays  To apply, please fill out the adoption app: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 email apps.aasr@gmail.com with any 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.
