Nice to meet you—I'm Doyle, your potential new best friend. My journey to the shelter started on November 9, 2024, when I was found wandering along a busy street on a cool, rainy morning. Thankfully, a kind person spotted me and brought me here.
When I arrived, I was wet, hungry, and a little unsure of what was happening. But the shelter staff welcomed me with open arms! They gave me a warm bed, a cozy blanket, a bowl of food, and even a toy. For a moment, it felt like I’d hit the jackpot!
But after a few days, I realized my family wasn’t coming to find me. I started feeling a little homesick, but the staff assured me that my next family is out there somewhere, waiting to meet me. Now, I’m officially up for adoption!
I’ve been neutered, I’m up-to-date on all my vaccines, and here’s a big bonus—I’m heartworm negative! The staff thinks I’m still just a young pup, probably around 7 to 9 months old, which means I’ve got a lot of energy and a zest for life.
I’m dreaming of an active family who loves to explore the great outdoors, whether it’s walking trails, going on adventures, or just running around the backyard. I’d also love to have a few kiddos to play with at home—imagine all the fun we could have!
I’ve already sent my wish list to Santa Paws, and at the top of it is a special family who will take me home and make 2025 the best year ever. I’m ready to fill your life with love, tail wags, and unforgettable memories.

My name is Hugo. I have personality from the tip of my tongue to the tip of my tail! In case you haven’t noticed, my ears are very expressive; they clearly have a story to tell. I’m young, only about 4 months old, so I have lots of energy. I need an active family to play with. If you take a chance on me, I promise not to disappoint!

Constance is a lively Siberian Husky/Australian Shepherd mix, roughly one and a half to two years old. Constance has a strong affinity for play and copious energy reserves. Her exceptional intelligence and trainability make her highly receptive to instruction.
Oh! And Constance has two new best friends, two little boys ages seven and nine. She had a blast playing with them and running all around the play yard!

JINX’s journey… “Today marks a milestone for my nuggets, one week old and growing strong. Though I faced a setback with the loss of one of my babies two days ago, I remain committed to nurturing my remaining seven. I am thrilled to hear that three presents are waiting for me at the shelter, a heartwarming reminder of the love and support that surrounds me. Thank you for embracing me with open hearts.”

Hi, I'm Set! I ended up homeless on December 11, 2024, when my person had to move and couldn't take me along. It's been tough, but I'm hanging in there. I've lived with cats before and we get along just fine. I haven’t had a lot of one-on-one time with other dogs, but I think I’d like a playmate to keep me from getting bored.

I'm a big fan of treats, and I take them nicely from your hand. When it comes to walking on a leash, I’m well-behaved. I used to live indoors, and I wasn’t destructive—though I do enjoy playing with toys!
I’ll admit, I can be a little vocal when I’m left alone, but I’m not too loud. I’ve been feeling a bit down since being at the shelter, but I’m still hoping to find a family that’ll love me. If you’re interested in me, maybe we could have a playdate at the shelter? I promise I’m housebroken, and I’m looking forward to meeting you!

JINX’s Journey….

“I was a little out of commission yesterday. I’m sure everyone can understand why, lol. My eight pups are doing really well and we are settling in beautifully in our loving foster home. I really don’t have much of an appetite right now, so my Foster Mom feeds me by hand. I love being spoiled!”

JINX’s Journey..Day 2

“Good morning everybody!! I can’t talk long today because I have my little knuckleheads to tend to. I haven’t talked to my friends at WMAS this morning, but I will give them a shout shortly. I did update them last night after I had my first 2 pups! Thank you Mailman for my wonderfully comfortable bed!”

“Man I’m tired! It was a long, long night. I had 10 puppies; two of my little ones didn’t make it😢
Now the real work begins! Eight chunky babies will be wearing me out for the next few weeks. I’m so glad to have such a wonderful place to be with so many kind people looking after me and my pups. I’m going to take a nap now and I will update everybody later.”

We had a remarkable playgroup yesterday! Some of our long-term had the wonderful opportunity to play with others for hours. Let me tell you who the superstar was…. it was Luther!
Our big brindle buddy was everybody’s friend and worked the crowd beautifully.

Happy Holidays to everyone! My name is Roo Anne, and I’m sending out lots of love from my foster home. I arrived at the West Memphis Animal Shelter on October 25, 2024, as a stray kitten. I was about 12 weeks old at the time, but now I’ve grown a little older and I’ve already been spayed.
Right now, I’m staying in a foster home with a couple of other cats and two small dogs. We all get along really well, and I enjoy the company of my furry friends. I recently had some high-quality photos taken, and I’m hoping my forever person sees them and decides to adopt me!
I’m a very good girl—love to play, but I also love curling up in your lap for some cozy snuggles. If you’re interested in me, please reach out to the shelter so we can make arrangements for a visit. I can’t wait to meet you!
