2. Dancer

Adult · Female · Border Collie / Labrador Retriever / Mixed · 99 mi from Springdale

Hi, I'm Dancer! I'm a sweet, friendly, and curious girl. I'm independent, too. I like to explore new places and sniff out interesting things. I'm gentle with everyone I meet and I'm brave when I need to be. I'm mellow, so I don't mind just hanging out and relaxing. I love to play, and I'm always up for a game of fetch or tug-of-war. I'm a bit shy at first, but once I get to know you, I'm super cuddly. I would love to find a forever home where I can continue to be my playful, curious self. I promise to be a loyal and loving companion. I may be a little shy, but I have a big heart. Will you be my new best friend?

6. Money

Adult · Male · Pit Bull Terrier / Hound / Mixed · 82 mi from Springdale

Money is a true survivor who has already overcome more than any dog should have to. He was confiscated from a property after being abandoned, and we later learned that before he was left behind, Money had been hit by a car. His front leg was so severely mangled that it could not be saved, and he ultimately had to undergo an amputation. But losing a leg certainly hasn’t slowed Money down! This sweet boy is house-trained, crate-trained, and dog-friendly. He has adjusted incredibly well to life on three legs and is ready to put his difficult past behind him. With the right introduction and a knowledgeable home, he may also be able to live with cats.After everything Money has been through, we want his next chapter to be the one where he finally gets to be someone’s beloved family member!<br /><br />Okie Pet Rescue<br />okiepetrescue@gmail.comokiepetrescue.org<br />An application must be completed and approved after a comprehensive review.

Adopting a large dog in Springdale

Large dogs need room to stretch out and plenty of exercise: at least one good walk a day, and a secure yard is a bonus. Check your lease too, as some landlords limit the size or breed of dog.

Start training from day one. A big dog who walks nicely on a leash and doesn't jump up is a pleasure to live with, and many rescues can recommend a local trainer.
