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.Penelope Just look at those eyes and try not to fall in love, I dare you! I don't think it's possible! We believe Penelope is a Sheltie/Husky mix. She doesn't seem to be as big as a Husky puppy. She is a WONDERFUL little girl. She loves everyone. Great with kids, cats, and other dogs of all sizes and personalities. She does very well in a crate, and doesn't have accidents in the crate. That's a big accomplishment for a puppy that's only about 3 months old. She also knows how to use the doggy door and does great with that as well - she has rarely had an accident in the house. She is playful with other dogs but will also entertain herself if the other dogs don't want to play. She loves kids and doesn't bother cats. She is SMART and learns new concepts very quickly. She does not seem to have the herding tendency that Sheltie's can have. She is just an all around wonderful little girl that will make a great family pet! Penelope is located in Arkansas and can be adopted locally, or she can be transported to the New England area for an adopter. We offer pick ups for our New England Adopters on Saturdays in PA, NY, and CT. For more info, email apps.aasr@gmail.com. To apply to adopt, click this link: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059Visit 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. There is a transport fee of $150 per dog, depending on the transporter. We use Pack Leaders Rescue Dog Transport most often, but also use Hearts Transport as well on occasion. Please visit our Facebook page too! https://www.facebook.com/adoptastrayrescueorg For more info regarding adopting, email apps.aasr@gmail.com Thank you for considering one of our rescue babies!August 14, 2025, 7:33 am
