Mountain Cur and Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption

Hi! My name is Derkin, and I am from Arkansas!

From her foster: Derkin is a girl boss. She is smart, sweet, and sassy. While she may be over 5 pounds smaller than her littermate that she lives with, she is clearly the one in charge. She eats first, runs the fastest, gets the comfier spot in the crate, somehow gets the bigger treat. She's on top of her stuff and she knows it.

She's also the first one to greet you when you walk in a room, the fastest top hop up on your lap, giver of the bestest puppy kisses, and quick to roll over and fall asleep in your lap - belly-up, of course.

Derkin's spark for life is apparent, and she's super smart. She's great at going potty outside and sleeping in the crate after a few minutes of protest howling. She's going to be great for a family that really wants a dog because she really wants a family.
