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 Dixxon

9/29/25 Dixon has entered the Paws in Prison program. He is now about 9 months old. He will graduate the week of 11/24 and we hope to have an adopter ready and waiting for him! Paws in prison is an amazing program where dogs are paired with inmates whom they are with 24/7 for 8 weeks. The inmates work with the dogs everyday on basic training, basic obedience, house training, leash training, etc. and even some tricks! They meet weekly with a certified dog trainer. This is a wonderful program and so beneficial for the dogs and the inmates! When they graduate, they have all the skills needed to pass the Canine Good Citizen test.   Dixon is is crate trained, but may need a little more work on house training. At Paws in Prison he should master house training! Prior to going to Paws in Prison, he was kept mostly outside at his foster home except at night or bad weather, and during those times he was crated indoors.   Dixon is a playful, outgoing pup who enjoys playing with humans and dogs alike. He absolutely adores children. He has been known to bark at and chase cats so he probably is not a candidate for a home with cats. He is good with other dogs.   Dixxon and his sister Stardust, have been looking for a home since April, 2025. They are now about 9 months old and they have grown up in their foster home. They are both beautiful pups and deserve homes of their own. He is a mixed breed and weighs about 40 lbs. He won't get much bigger than he is now.   He is neutered, UTD on vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention.    Dixxon is located in Arkansas. He can be adopted locally, but transport is available to the New England area as well. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them in PA, NY, or CT on Saturdays.   To apply, please fill out the adoption app: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 email [email protected] with any questions.
