Arkansas is a major puppy mill state so unfortunately rat terriers end up in the shelters a lot.

(I have two rat rescues)

Out-of-Area Adoption & Rescue Procedures

If you are out of the area, and are interested in adopting or rescuing an animal from LRAS, one of the following local rescue groups would be happy to assist you. Please don't forget to provide the LRAS animal ID number.

The cost to adopt/rescue an animal involves the vetting fees, boarding costs (sometimes free fosters are available, or reduced rate boarding), and transportation. The transportation cost depends on where you are located, and can involve a volunteer ground transport, paid ground transport (usually around $125 to the NE US), or air transportation (ask the rescue group that is assisting you for details, but this may be in the range of ~$125 and up).

If you are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, you may be able to pull animals directly from LRAS.

Here are the LRAS requirements:
You must provide LRAS with proof of your organization's 501(c)(3) status.
You must provide LRAS with a copy of your organization's mission statement. It must state that your organization's purpose is to rescue animals from animal shelters.
You must have a local representative (in Pulaski County, Arkansas). If you do not meet these requirements (for example if you do not have non-profit status, or you do not have a local representative in Pulaski County):
You may contact one of the local rescue groups to assist you.
They will want to verify you are a legitimate rescue organization, and discuss the financial aspects of rescuing from LRAS.
Please don't forget to provide the LRAS animal ID number.

Note that for rescue groups as well as adopters, unsterilized animals must be sterilized. There are no exceptions. Proof of sterilization MUST be sent to LRAS within five (5) business days of rescue, unless a waiver is signed by an Arkansas veterinarian saying the animal is too young or too sick to be sterilized at time of rescue. The waiver must be sent to LRAS and should include the date when the animal can be expected to be sterilized. The proof of sterilization needs to be sent within five (5) business days from that date.

Jules, I wish!  However right now we can't get another dog... not until we can afford to move out

Kim,

I just received an update from the shelter about this pupper   At least she's not in danger of being pts... hopefully she will find a loving home soon though, she's adorable!!

"The puppy in question is still here and has been for a while. We will continue holding her until she is adopted. Please come and see her. I’m sure if you see her, you will probably fall in love."
