In the shelter’s words

Meet Ariel! Ariel is a beautiful 2-year-old Heeler mix weighing approximately 36 pounds who is looking for a special family to help her begin a much brighter chapter. Ariel was one of 14 animals surrendered to RAC on 10/3/26 after her previous home became overwhelmed with too many animals. Ariel is a shy but incredibly sweet girl who will need a patient, understanding family willing to give her the time she needs to feel safe, build confidence, and learn what it means to truly thrive in a home. She arrived at RAC with several significant wounds after being targeted by other adult dogs in her previous home. She is actively receiving treatment and continues to heal a little more each day. For now, Ariel is being given space from other dogs while she recovers. This does not necessarily mean she cannot live with another dog in the future, but we want to give her the opportunity to heal before asking too much of her. If you have another dog and are interested in adopting Ariel, a scheduled meet and greet will be required to help determine whether they may be a good match. Ariel's adoption fee is $125. She is spayed, microchipped, current on her annual boosters, and heartworm negative. Ariel has already been through more than any sweet girl should have to endure. Now she deserves the chance to discover the good stuff—safety, patience, kindness, and a family of her very own. Apply to adopt Ariel: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/
