Adopt-A-Stray

We are a few dedicated individuals who have formed Adopt-A-Stray in order to save many adoptable pets that would otherwise be euthanized in the shelters in our area. We routinely pull dogs and cats from the euthanasia list, as well as take in strays and owner surrenders as space allows.

Meet Finn

Finn is 16 lbs Schnauzer who was found running down a busy highway a few weeks ago. I personally witnessed a semi come within inches of hitting him. He looked so scared and confused, pacing back n forth frantically. When I pulled over and got out of my van he ran to me, begging for help. His coat was painfully matted, pulling on his skin and causing sores. There were no nearby houses and I have not been able to locate his owner. We went straight to the vet and had him scanned for a microchip but he doesn't have one. He seems to be an older fella, maybe 8-10 years old. He is in good health, but appears to be deaf- maybe not completely but at least partially. He is an incredibly good boy. Totally crate trained- hasn't had a single accident. He does try to mark his territory but you just have to watch him and redirect him. We had him neutered so hopefully the marking will stop once those hormones are gone. He loves all other dogs, as well as all people, and isn't concerned with cats. He met several cats at the vet clinic and was friendly to them. He interacted with all of my dogs in a very positive way- he tried to play with them and took correction from them very well. He is very laid back and mellow - not high energy at all. He enjoys long naps and short play sessions, and a few short outside trips daily to do his business. He's a very easy going guy and will make the most loyal and loving companion! He is ready to find a home of his own. Some of the photos are before he was groomed. He will need regular grooming to prevent mats in his super soft, fine hair. Located in Arkansas, but transport is available. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them at one of the following times/locations.
