My story

If you are looking to adopt a pup that is already potty-trained, crate-trained, can do simple commands already, and is just a good little girl, then no need to look any further!! Josie has all those traits and is looking for her forever home. She loves to run and stretch her long legs so an active family would be best for her. Taking hikes, long walks/runs, or even strolling along in the neighborhood would be ideal for Josie. She has a great sense about her and loves to explore and smell all the nature smells there is to offer. She gets along great with other dogs so even having her a sibling would be great! She is an active pup naturally, so having another dog would be something Josie would love or even kiddos to play with.
She walks great on a leash. She loves to sit for treats:). Oh and did I mention that she LOVES car rides??? Yes, she will sit in the passenger seat with her seatbelt on and loves to look around at all the sites along the way!
Josie will make a great pet for someone looking to adopt. Her beauty will make all the heads turn and wonder what breed she is. Go ahead and apply for this beautiful pup!

Josie Is spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, treated for all of the intestinal parasites, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Because intestinal parasites are cyclical, your puppy may need additional treatment once you get him/her home. This is common and nothing to be alarmed about. Puppies and dogs need to be treated periodically for parasites throughout their entire lives.

The adoption fee is $550 if your adoption is prepaid prior to your pup's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on puppies that are picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368.

WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON? Check the Events tab on cprdogs.com for all weekend adoption event info. The majority of the dogs marked as 'meet me' will be there to see you!

More and more of our adopters are having fun with DNA tests on their pups. You might ask yourself why our breed guess is varying degrees of difference from the DNA tests. Most of our puppies are rescued from high kill shelters or other abandonment situations and we have no info on parents. When we rescue puppies that have no background info, we make our very best educated guess as to breed mix and age. Our guesstimate comes from years and years and years of animal welfare work and training, but our guesses won't always agree with your vet, your neighbor, your DNA test, etc. The most important thing to know about your puppy's breed mix is that most likely he/she is a Super Lovable Mutt made of many many many different breeds.

If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at the Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05.

Why adoption is a great option

Josie~adopted!, a Southbury Miniature Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Miniature Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher for sale in Southbury, or seeking a Miniature Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher dog from a breeder in Southbury.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Southbury already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Southbury breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Miniature Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher breeders who help with Miniature Pinscher/Doberman Pinscher rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Southbury paves the way for another one to be saved.
