FARMINGTON, N.M. — Josy Pyne bought her first horse at age 48, following a bout with breast cancer.
Following her triumph over cancer, horse riding and training became the guiding passions of her life.
Pyne now owns two horses, which she refers to as “her boys”: Rocky, a 13-year-old chestnut Missouri fox trotter, and Cisco, a 15-year-old quarterhorse that changes color four times a year. (more…)
Callie was one of the kittens of a stray my mother-in-law adopted several years ago.
My in-laws are both in the nursing home now, and we have sold their home. We are unable to keep Callie because of the number of pets we already own. Callie is a sweet, even-tempered, tabby cat. She is spayed and is about 8 years old.
We want to find an inside home for her.
She is comfortable around other dogs and/or cats.
She is living in our mudroom. Because our house is so close to the street, we do not let our pets outside. We would love for Callie to find a good adoptive family who would love and protect her.
For more information or to adopt, contact Jeanette at jeanette.jones@arkansas.gov.

Mia and Dakota are both rescued pitbulls that came into my life in very different ways. Mia, a chocolate pitbull, was rescued from a chain (attached to a stop sign) where she was left for dead five years ago. At less than 1 year old, she was very dog aggressive when she came home with me, but with a lot of leadership and patience, she is now a model for balance in our home. — Submitted by Karen Kelly, North Little Rock
