Story
Hello, I'm Sheba! My name, in Hebrew, means "promise" and I vow to furever love you if you adopt me! I'm two years old, 52 lbs., and believe I may be a mix of a basenji and pit bull but who knows - I can, however, contest that I'm 100% adorable! I was found as a stray and then brought to a shelter in NC, where I sadly spent 19 months waiting for someone to come save me. That's nearly my whole life! Now that I am out of the kennel, I'm finally learning "how to dog" and experiencing all the world has to offer. Since being in a shelter is pretty much all I've ever known, it has all been a bit overwhelming but I'm learning each day. I need someone that is going to be patient with me as I have been very anxious in my foster home. One thing about me is that I absolutely LOVE people and with ears as big as mine, I'm a great listener too! I really enjoy being outside, especially sniffing and exploring, and will never say no to a walk or run. Everything is just so exciting to me right now that I can get overstimulated. I have a nice medium energy level and really like to cuddle up next to you on the couch. When I was in the shelter, I was friendly with both cats and dogs. Since I can get mouthy, I'd do best in a home with teens and up. I MUST go to a home with a fenced yard so I can run all my energy out and be safe. My adoption fee is $375 and I'm vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and spayed. If you are interested in meeting me, please complete the application at form.jotform.com/200883908893166.

Story
*Name: Scout *Age: 1 year *Current Weight: 33 pounds *Rescued from: Texas (currently located with foster in Texas, transport will be scheduled once adopted.) *Location: This dog is currently in Texas. Our rescue includes transportation to adopters and fosters throughout the Northeast. *Adoption fee: $ 475 *Health: Up to date on vaccines, neutered & microchipped *Adoption requirements: Adopter must be 25 or older, requires home with another playful medium to large canine sibling. Meet Scout.  His well-mannered, sweet, slightly shy demeanor and regal appearance will win over your heart immediately.  Scout is a quick study, he takes treats nicely, teaching him his basic obedience skills including sit and lay down has been a breeze. He's an eager, fast learner, just one smart pup! Scout lays quietly in his kennel at night and goes straight to bed when we tell him.  This gentle boy can be a little shy at first so he needs a little extra time to trust but it's so worth it.   With his petite medium size, his rescuers think he is a Shiba Inu/bensinji mix and approximately 1 year old.   He loves to be outside playing with our teenage kids, we think older considerate kids are the best fit for Scout.   He loves to play with stuffed animals and running in the backyard. Scout also loves to chat with us.  Scout really loves dogs, particular medium to large dogs so a canine big brother or sister is really a must for him.  He truly lights up around his canine friends.  Scout has had a rough start at life, but is looking forward to finding his forever home.  If you are looking for a smart, handsome gentleman to share your life with, Scout is your guy.   To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/ FAQs -- PLEASE READ ALL BEFORE EMAILING All adoption fees are non-refundable If paying by credit card, Venmo, or PayPal there is a set processing fee, generally this fee is under $15 per pet. These processing fees are determined by the form of payment adopters decide to use. By helping with this minimal cost this allows us to save more animals. Please note that SNARR NE is a volunteer-based organization. While our volunteers will try to respond to you as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the below information about our adoption process before emailing: LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the puppy's/dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents depending on the situation. *NOTE* We rarely know a dog's exact age, nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. Because we often do not have access to medical records at the time that we are listing for dogs for adoption, there are sometimes discrepancies between what is posted on their profile and what might be listed on a dog's medical records. SNARR'S ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting a SNARR dog/puppy is to fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/. Once we receive your application, one of our adoption application processors will contact you, review our adoption process with you, and answer any additional questions you may have. **We do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions, but on best fit for a family and most importantly the puppy or dog. ** MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until after your adoption application has been fully processed and approved by one of our adoption processors. APPLYING ONLINE: If you fill out an online application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device), make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible, and that you receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive a confirmation email, that means we did NOT receive your application. ##1717644##

Story
This lil sassy frass is so darn cute and the bestest best friend you could ever find or ask for. So friendly, ready to hit every party, and the most funtastic puppers ever... apply now! All this cuteness and so much more.... This cutie is around 13 weeks old and so very ready to find a furever home! This puppy 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. TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get an automatically generated confirmation email. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in spam or bouncing back. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will then be in touch to answer your questions about this pup, discuss the adoption process and get the ball rolling! If you have not heard from one of our volunteers within 5 days of submitting your application, please email mollibo@gmail.com.

Story
A beautiful and smart girl who loves nothing more then a good walk and someone to sit with her- that's Cleo! She is a three year old Northern East African Village Dog who's had a very busy life so far. She'd originally made the long journey to CT from Egypt (!) to be with her original owners, before being signed over to us, making her very well traveled if she does say so herself. Cleo is very intelligent, and enjoys her outside time. She loves to be in nature and does fantastically on walks. Affection and attention are another one of Cleo's favorite things, she'll rub herself along our legs with her face and body, simply asking to be pet. Cleo would do best as the only pet in the house, as she chases cats and is does not like other dogs. Cleo is a fun dog who brings joy to everyone she encounters. Just looking at her tippy tapping her feet in excitement will bring a smile to your face! She is spayed, up to date with her vaccines and ready to go home today! aws-shelter.org for an application
