Labrador Retriever and Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Heber Springs, Arkansas

Willie is a 2-year-old Lab mix with a warm, friendly spirit. When he first arrived at the shelter as a skinny stray, and did not have an easy life. Even so, Willie has shown nothing but appreciation for kindness and care.
Willie came in with a healed injury to his front leg that gives it a slightly bowed look, but it doesn’t slow him down or seem to cause him any discomfort. He moves around just fine and is ready to enjoy all the fun that comes with being part of a family.

This sweet boy would love a home with a fenced yard where he can safely play, stretch his legs, and spend time with the people he loves. Willie isn’t just looking for a place to live—he’s hoping for a family who will include him in everyday life. Apply to adopt Willie at HeberSpringsHumaneSociety.com

Please fill out an adoption application at HeberSpringsHumaneSociety.com and a volunteer will contact you 2-3 days.
