Meet Freckles

9/20 Still available! 9/6/26 Freckles and Confetti are a special pair of sisters. We would like them to find a home together, however, they can be separated as long as they have another confident dog in the home. They are currently at Paws in Prison. This is a wonderful program where dogs are paired with inmate trainers. They are the prison for 8 weeks. The inmate trainers work with the dogs everyday on basic training (house training, crate training, leash walking, etc) as well as basic commands. Sometimes even a few tricks! We hope to have homes lined up for these girls once they graduate in mid October. They are such sweet babies. I do not know their breed, but my guess would be bird dog mix or maybe Catahoula mix. I rescued them out of the woods when I was driving by and saw them run into a drainage culvert. I stopped and they ran into the woods. They want so badly to be loved, but until they were rescued, the only love they had known was from each other. They wag their tails and belly crawl to me, but they are still a bit timid. You can tell they have experienced a lot of neglect and possibly abuse in their lives. But they love to be held and loved on. They are just very insecure. Freckles and Confetti are crate trained and they are very well behaved when crated. No accidents and no crying. They feel safe in their crate and don't mind it at all. They are about 5 months old and each weigh between 20-25 lbs, with Freckles being slightly larger. They will probably be in the 50-60 lbs range once grown. They are not high energy puppies. They play with each other some but mostly they cuddle and have a lower energy level for young puppies. They are precious little souls that need patient and understanding families who will show them that there are kind people in the world. Despite their fears and insecurities, they have never growled or acted aggressively in any way, they want so desperately to be loved on. They have made great progress here at their foster home and they will continue to gain confidence at Paws in Prison and once they are adopted in loving homes. If someone would like to adopt both of them, we will happily reduce fees to help with the cost of adopting the 2 of them together. They are spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Located in Arkansas and can be adopted locally, or can transport to the New England area if adopted there. If adopted in New England, adopter will need to pick up (or arrange for a trusted friend/family to pick him up) on a Saturday in MD, PA, NJ, or CT. Residents of other states may adopt as well, as long as they can meet our transporter along their route. For questions or more info, email apps.aasr@gmail.com.
