Tina~Adopted

Tina is a little one year old charming Arkansas Brown Dog mix (breeds unknown), who found herself locked up in the cold, noisy, and frightening kennels at Little Rock Animal Services. Tina lived on the streets for several months, fending on her own, finding her own food, water and shelter. Some neighbors saw Tina's plight and tried to catch her, but she was too scared. Tina is a sweet and charming girl, and the shelter with all the barking, fearful crying, and smell of fear was a terrifying place for poor Tina. Fortunately a visiting volunteer from DogsOnly spotter her sad eyes peeking through the bars of her kennel door. Moments later, Tina was up in arms, enjoying the security of a warm hug, while she covered her new friend with licks of gratitude. She is now very social. She especially loves running and playing with other dogs at the foster home. She is an alert barker and will let you know when a stranger is around. She is very intelligent and learns quickly. She sleeps in her room every night and has never had an accident or torn anything up. None the worse for her experience at the pound, Tina is gaining confidence every day and doing a lot of tail wagging. She is such a gorgeous girl, its hard to keep your hands off of her. Her coat is silky soft, and she always makes a fuss of everyone she meets. She is a very happy and active young companion and would love to have a family to keep her company and play with. She loves attention and would do best in a home with someone who has experience raising a young canine companion or someone who is willing to commit the time and training for a young dog. The adoption fee is $125 and covers all necessary vet care to include: spay or neuter (mandatory - no exceptions), rabies, microchipping and registration, all vaccinations (including all puppy shots, rabies, adult boosters and Bordatella), grooming, Frontline for flea/tick preventative, heartworm check if age appropriate and preventative, collar and 50% of basic training classes. ******PLEASE NOTE - DUE TO HIGH COST OF GAS - EFFECTIVE 06/14/08 DOGSONLY WILL ONLY BE SHOWING ON SATURDAYS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. DOGSONLY WILL NO LONGER BE SHOWING ON SUNDAYS. WE ARE SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE AND APPRECIATE YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT.********* Adoption showings are every Sat & Sun at the WLR Petco on Chenal Parkway across from Target and Home Depot from 1-4. We do not show on holiday weekends. Also, you may want to call the store to make sure this pet is still available. Please call during our showing hours at 501-219-9907 as the store employees are not always aware on the availability of our rescues. Email contact is [email protected] Due to time restraints, we are not able to accept phone calls outside of our showing times at Petco (Sat & Sun 1-4) but we always try and answer all emails within 24 hours. All of our young and adult dogs require a 2 week home visit before finalizing the adoption process. This is to help ensure it is a good match for all involved without making a final commitment. Puppies are not available to go on home visits. All of our rescues are in private homes and not available to be visited outside of showing times. All of our foster homes work with our rescues to ensure they are crate trained and most are also housetrained. None of our foster homes have cats, so we can only make our best guess as to how our rescues would do with cats. We rescue from high kill shelters and once accepted into our program, none of our rescues are euthanized. We provide for all their vet care, socialization and training until an appropriate home can be found. We rely solely on donations and are a 501(c)3 Humane Society. The only support we receive is from donations from the general public. Thank you for your interest in rescue and in saving the life of a dog. Every day in the United States, 11,000 dogs are euthanized. Why Buy When You Can Save? Save a Rescued Dog
