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 Lenny

The results from Lenny’s DNA test are in! He is very mixed with several breeds including German Shepherd, pit, Great Pyrenees, and many others.  Lenny had a very rough start to life but thankfully a kind soul looked out for him and saved his life! ‼️Please share Lenny‼️ His perfect forever home will include a physically active family with fellow high energy dog or dogs to play with. If you’re looking for a playmate for your dog, Lenny is your man!! He is cat friendly but may require redirection from trying to play with them. Lenny loves everyone. He hasn’t been around kids but we think he’d be fine with them. He would never intentionally hurt a small child but could inadvertently do so out of excitement and lack of self awareness to his size. ✅He’s highly trainable and eager to please. He thrives on instruction, praise, and affection. He follows the “sit” command for treats. He is house trained! 1️⃣ About a year old. Very mixed with several breeds…Heinz 57 (the best breed there is)! He’s neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. His story-He had no idea he was essentially knocking on death’s door. His whole body a snack for multiple parasitic moochers, inside and out. He was physically and emotionally malnourished. Despite all of that he repeatedly greeted me with enthusiasm, tail wags, and smiles. I tried caring for him remotely at first. It wasn’t long before he started following me to my car and begging me to take him with me. I soon did just that. Throughout the months of dedication to healing his body, his personality blossomed and shined even brighter than before. Now proudly wearing his physical health, he has the freedom to focus on other things. Things like toys, treats, typical puppy mayhem, and forever. He constantly amazes me with his sunny disposition and the temperament of an angel. He independently claimed the role of big brother and babysitter to younger foster pups. 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.
