10. Taylor
Puppy · Female · Australian Shepherd / Mixed · 37 mi from Lonoke




10/24 TaylorThis sweet little girl was found as a stray. We had hoped an owner would come forward to claim her, but no such luck. She is about 3 months old, and we think she is possibly australian shepherd mix. This little girl is so friendly and sweet, and full of life! She is great with other dogs, cats, kids, and goats. She is working on house training and leash manners, but still has a ways to go to have these mastered. But she's still a baby and has a lot to learn. She has great potential to be part of a family!
She is spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.
Located in Arkansas, but transport is available.

11. Noli
Puppy · Male · Boston Terrier / Mixed · 37 mi from Lonoke




10/22/26 We need a foster or adopter for Noli ASAP. In New England. He was adopted from us as a puppy, but is now being returned. This is not the fault of Noli. Unfortunately his owner seems to be dealing with some severe depression and not able to care of Noli. The owner of her home has asked that Noli be rehomed. We can go into further detail in email so as not to share too much of his owner's personal info out in the open. Cannoli is 9mo old and about 40 lbs. A DNA test on his sibling confirmed he is a Boston Terrier mix but please take note he is larger than a Boston. He is good with other dogs and tolerates cats well.
Read more about Noli
He's a sweet, good boy. He needs to work on house training-unfortunately it sounds like due to his owner's depression, she does not take him outside when he needs to go and therefore he is having accidents. He is fully vetted. Please help. These are the most recent pics that were sent to us. This is very URGENT. Please reach out if you can help. More detailed info on Noli below.

Noli's owner had him enrolled in some training classes to help him be the best well rounded boy he can be. Here is info from the trainer:"Noli is very social with people and loves being part of whatever is happening. He is highly food motivated, learns new patterns quickly, and bonds closely with his person. He settles well once he has had a chance to take in a new person or place. During his consultation he was able to calm down and fall asleep while we talked, even with a visitor in the home. What he has learned: -Name check-ins: he turns back to his person when his name is called, and this was one of his fastest skills.-Hand target (touch): he touches a hand with his nose on cue.-Sit: offered often and reliably at home.-Greeting routine: person arrives, he says hello, then he comes back to his person for another activity. This is trained and still needs practice with new people.-Loose leash basics: he understands that a tight leash stops the walk and a loose leash keeps it going. He pulls when something exciting catches his attention, mostly smells and people.-Settling on a tether or leash setup indoors: he settles and has fallen asleep in this setup, and he has put himself to bed on his own.-Crate: he will go in willingly with a chew or food toy. He needs a larger crate than the one he started with, big enough to stand, turn, and stretch out on his side.

13. Nelda
Young · Female · Poodle (unknown type) / Mixed · 37 mi from Lonoke




10/22/26 Meet Nelda! Poodle mix, about 8 months old. Nelda's mom was dumped on an older Veteran who did the best he could. Unfortunately another dog was dumped on him. Neither were spayed/neutered, so you guessed it...a litter of puppies. Mom appears to be a pit mix or bulldog mix and dad appears to be some sort of doodle. There's no telling what kind of doodle he is, sometimes doodles end up being a mix of many breeds. The man who has mom and dad reached out to us recently for help with finding homes for the puppies (now about 8 months old) and to help get everyone spayed/neutered. So here we are! This man did the best he could and has provided safety, shelter, food and water but was not able to let all the puppies live inside.
Read more about Nelda
Nelda is very sweet and good with other dogs. She does tend to boss her sister around. She has not been around cats or kids. We do believe she would be fine with kids. She seems very gentle and friendly.
Nelda has started at the Paws in Prison program this week. This is a wonderful 8 week program where each dog is paired with inmate trainers. The dogs live at the prison with the inmates. The inmates work on the basics with the dogs (house training, crate training, leash walking etc.) as well as basic commands and sometimes some tricks! They meet weekly with a certified dog trainer. This is an amazing program! When the dogs graduate they have all the skills needed to pass the Canine Good Citizen test.
Nelda will graduate from Paws in Prison the week of 12/14. She can be pulled from the program sooner if her adopter wants her sooner. No matter what, we hope to have an adopter ready and waiting for her by 12/14.
From Paws in Prison:
"Whoa now, we need to pause and marvel at who just walked in the door! Her name is Nelda, and she’s the gorgeous daughter of a dog that was dumped on a veteran’s property. She is friendly, sweet, and has a touch of bossiness to her. That’s probably directly tied to the wired hair on her. Wired hair and sassy seem to go hand in hand! Nelda is a mixed breed…we’re talking a buffet of breeds. And she’s adorable. From the extra fancy feet to the scruffy face to the coppery eyes, Nelda is a masterpiece. She’s uniquely beautiful. This baby is 8 months old. No weight yet, but my guess is 35-40 pounds. Two insider tips…first, Nelda is gonna light the world on fire with her smarts and abilities. She has all the makings of a standout student. And second, she has an equally amazing sister named Cammie who is also available for adoption."
She is spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

20. Bear
Young · Male · Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 37 mi from Lonoke




10/17/26 Bear was adopted from us when he was a little baby. He is now about 9-10 months old and he is in need of a new home. Bear is energetic and kind hearted. He loves other dogs and kids. He would greatly benefit from a structured home, with a family who is willing to invest some time in training him. His current family has been unsuccessful at house training him, and he has a habit of jumping up in excitement, which poses a fall risk to the grandparents who visit frequently. I believe these issues are related to not getting enough exercise, not enough structure, and just him being an adolescent puppy who is still learning and growing.
Read more about Bear
I believe in a few months, some these issues will resolve but in the meantime he needs a new home with a family who will be patient but will also take the lead with training him and giving him lots of exercise. He is leash trained and fully vetted. In New England.

Adopting a dog in Lonoke
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
