Pets

You can adopt a pet at PetSmart on Saturday, Oct. 1. If you love to pet puppies or get a dog lick, Texarkana is the place to be between 10AM and 3PM to see all of the furry fluffies available for adoption. Many cats, dogs, puppies and kittens will be waiting for a pat on the head and hopefully loving arms to carry them home to a new family.

Sawyer is a mixture of all the best parts of a Beagle and Jack Russell. He is sweet, fun, energetic, entertaining and very smart. Sawyer is already neutered and quickly learned how to play fetch. He loves to interact with people and is also good with other dogs.

Tripp is a 10 month old American Bulldog mix. He is house trained, great on a leash and very friendly to people.

Adopt your next best friend this weekend at PetSmart in Texarkana and get huge savings on items for your new pet.

This sweet, young Retriever mix knows commands and will drop the throw rope at your feet too. She has either been worked with or is just super smart. With some fine tuning, she could be a pro at the game of fetch and maybe even retrieve some birds for you.

Turkey was named for his waddle that hangs on his neck. He is a senior Dachshund that was found as a stray in Texarkana and now awaits someone who wants to love him. Little dogs like this can live a long time.

Adopt this Great Dane-Mastiff from the animal shelter in Texarkana. He is a fun, playful big boy that is around 1 year old. His Animal ID is 74462. His name is unknown so I called him Kevin. He liked it. This dog is neutered and microchipped. He appears to have some house training too.

This stunning blue-eyed Beagle mix is a fun loving young boy. He jumps as high as your waist whiles smiling and trying to get you to play. He is available for adoption from the animal shelter in Texarkana.

Animals are taken to our local shelter every day. Usually it is dogs and cats, sometimes they get birds, rabbits, horses and more. Before you buy a pet, see what the shelter has to offer.

Adoptions have been great at the shelter in the past couple of weeks but now is not the time to sit back and think the overcrowding problem won't come back because it will and sooner than you think.

Adopt Shep from the Texarkana animal shelter. He is approximately 6 months old and a shepherd mix that was surrendered by his owner with his brother. But his brother had to be put down. So sad. He was a great dog too but let's focus on getting Shep adopted into a great home.

Adoptions have been great at the shelter in the past week, one might think there aren't any dogs left to adopt but there are still many dogs still looking for homes. New dogs are taken to the shelter every day. Below are videos of a few dogs that are adoptable and there are more in the intake area that will be ready in a few days as well.
