Mutt Donna is a young mom who finally has the chance to live the puppy life she deserves. She gave birth to 3 beautiful puppies that are also up for adoption on Sandy Paws rescue. Mutt Donna's foster family say that she is the most attentive mother they've ever seen - she always eats after her puppies and plays with them. Her foster mom believes that Mutt Donna was once a house dog but that sadly, she was abandoned once she became pregnant. Mutt Donna is potty-trained but we expect her to experience a few accidents in a new environment, something that is common when dogs enter a new enviroment. But from what his foster tells us, this mom is incredibly intelligent and learns incredibly fast. She is calm and tries to learn how to please humans as much as possible. She is comfortable in a crate but she still needs more leash-training and learning basic commands. She is friendly with other dogs but we haven't seen her interact with cats yet.
This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)
To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.
PLEASE READ:
• If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.
• All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.
• Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments.
Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well.
Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation.
For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.
The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
