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 Sancho Panza

6/16/25 Sancho Panza and his brother, Don Quixote, were strays and taken to a shelter. Unfortunately, their time was up at the shelter and they were going to be euthanized for space. Thankfully, we had spots open at the Arkansas Paws in Prison program, so we were able to take them into our rescue and place them at Paws in Prison!   We will continue to update this post as we receive more details and info on Sancho and how his training is going. He began at Paws in Prison on 6/9/25 so he will graduate the week of August 4th. We hope to have a home ready and waiting for him at that time!   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!   Sancho is a good boy who is very food motivated and eager to learn, so training should come along nicely. He is very friendly and great with other dogs. Sancho has shown mild food aggression with his brother, which we are not sure if that is just because they are brothers or if he would be the same way with other dogs. This is something they will work on with him at Paws in Prison.  He does have some of the typical young pup behaviors like jumping for attention, etc. Paws in Prison will also work with him on this.    So far, Paws in Prison has said he is a very curious boy, friendly, and quick to learn. He has a freckled face and a white tipped tail!   He is young, about 7 months old. We do not know his breed but we believe he may be a Pointer mix. He currently weighs 37 pounds.    He is heartworm negative, microchipped, neutered, and UTD on vaccinations.     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.  Harrisburg, PA 2am Fridays Port Jervis, NY 5am Fridays  Southington, CT 8am Fridays  East Hartford, CT 11am Fridays  To apply, please fill out the adoption app: https://form.jotform.com/212690945239059 email [email protected] with any questions.
