1 organization in
West Memphis that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call
ahead to confirm current beagle availability.
West Memphis has one foot in Tennessee and one in Arkansas, and for beagle adoption, the city itself is served by a single organization: FURGIVEN Animal Sanctuary. In a town of roughly 24,000 people, that means beagles are never abundant, and timing matters. The good news is you're sitting at a crossroads — several neighboring towns within an hour's drive offer more options if nothing local appears right away. This page gives you FURGIVEN's information and then points you toward those nearby shelter networks, so you can build a realistic search from the start.
A nonprofit, no-kill sanctuary in West Memphis, Arkansas focused on long-term, overlooked dogs pulled from public shelters facing euthanasia. Furgiven houses dogs regardless of age, breed, or adoptability and provides them individual care, medical treatment, and support until placed. It also runs free veterinary clinics, low-cost spay/neuter, and training programs across the Greater Midsouth and Tri-State region, with lifetime support for adopters.
With just one local shelter, your first call should be to FURGIVEN, and your second move should be to ask them about joining a waitlist. Then widen your net to Jonesboro, the closest hub with multiple organizations, about an hour away — or try Wynne and Forrest City, each around half an hour out, for a longer shot at finding a hound sooner. Call ahead before driving anywhere to confirm a beagle is there. Adopting one of Arkansas's overlooked rescues gives a dog a second home and keeps small shelters in business. The right beagle is out there; you just need to know where to listen.
