My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Rusty, a handsome 2-3 year old neutered male hound mix, weighing about 50 lbs! 



Rusty is a friendly, goofy boy who LOVES people! Because of his size and clumsiness, we recommend older kids 8+, as he may unintentionally knock over a small child. 



Rusty has come a long way since his arrival in New England, having initially been severely underweight. But now he's thriving with a full bowl of food, a warm bed, and gentle care. He has blossomed in his foster home, learning to play, cuddle, and trust. Rusty adores his foster family and loves snuggling on the couch - his favorite pastime! He is currently being fostered in southern NH.



Rusty generally gets along with more laid back/submissive dogs after a proper intro, however he is dog selective and can be a bit of an attention hog, so we feel he would do best as the only dog in the home. Also no cats for this boy, as he may confuse them for a tasty snack . 



We realize this is a tall order, but Rusty is SUCH a sweet boy, we hope that you will fall in love with him and happily devote all of your attention to him! He really does deserve it, especially since he has spent the better part of his life not knowing what it feels like to be loved.



Rusty is medically up to date and housebroken. Apply today to meet this special boy and give him the happily ever after he deserves!

Adoption fees vary based on the dog and are not negotiable. As a small rescue that does not receive government funding or grants, we rely on adoption fees to stay afloat. Adoption fees help cover the following: vaccinations, wellness exams, heartworm/4DX testing, parasite prevention, spay/neuter (age-appropriate), microchipping, transport expenses, and other rescue-related overhead/administrative costs. Paws Rescue League, Inc is an all-inclusive rescue that does NOT only rescue puppies and young, healthy dogs.  We make a point to also rescue seniors, dogs with special needs, moms, and other “less desirable” dogs, knowing that we will likely incur higher veterinary expenses and that these dogs may take longer to get adopted.  As such, an individual adoption fee is not only reimbursing PRL for expenses directly related to that dog, but it is also helping us to continue our mission of taking in dogs that would otherwise be too much of a financial burden to save. We believe that ALL dogs deserve a second chance. Thank you for your support and understanding!

More about this rescue

Paws Rescue League Inc. Rescues the dogs that need saving. We believe ALL dogs deserve love, happiness, and a family. We don't just take in the puppies, or the young fully vetted dogs who are quick to adopt. We take dogs of all ages, all sizes, all breeds and we do our best to find the best family that matches their needs. We work with our adopters to make sure they are supported, and the process is as stress free as possible. We are a 501(c)(3) non profit rescue, that is run by volunteers.

Currently we are NOT adopting to residents of MASSACHUSETTS OR MAINE. We will update our website when we are able to serve those areas. Thank you!
