PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet.

About Xavier

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog

7/4/2016 These beautiful babies were victims of domestic violence. Their mama, who is a Shih-Tzu/Poodle cross, was bred to another Shih-Tzu/Poodle cross. The owner of the mama dog was in an abusive relationship and after these puppies were born, her partner was put in jail for beating her and her kids. The mama of these puppies also suffered some abuse, and so did a couple of the puppies. When they came to me, 2 of the puppies were having trouble using their rear legs. We think they had been kicked. :( However, they have showed steady progress since coming into rescue, and they are almost completely normal now. The 2 puppies affected are Xavier and Laci. Xavier was the worst but is now only occasionally limping on one rear leg and uses the other one completely normal. Laci has recovered fully. These puppies hold no grudges and they absolutely love everyone they meet and they are very outgoing, friendly, cuddly, and loving babies! These puppies will have a higher adoption fee due to their breed and the high demand for them. The funds raised will be used to help with vet bills for some of the adult dogs in our rescue who need heartworm treatments and other medical treatments. These babies will remain in Arkansas until adopted, and then they will be transported out of state to their adopters. For more info, email kelley.aasr@gmail.com
