Story
Meet Mr. Beans – Slightly Neurotic, Fully Lovable 🇬🇧🐾 Yes, like Mr. Bean. A little dramatic. A little particular. Completely endearing. This 4.5-year-old, 16-pound tan gentleman made the journey from Tennessee with a fashionable stop in SoHo before arriving here — so he’s basically a small, slightly anxious world traveler. Now let’s address the elephant in the room: Mr. Beans can be a touch neurotic. New people? Suspicious. Sudden movements? Questionable. Weird noises? Absolutely not. But here’s the plot twist… Give him a minute. Once he realizes you are not, in fact, a villain in his personal sitcom, he transforms into your shadow, your sidekick, your ride-or-die best buddy. The warm-up period is short, and the loyalty payoff is huge. He is: ✔️ Neutered ✔️ Up to date on all shots ✔️ 16 pounds of tan perfection ✔️ Hilariously expressive ✔️ A fast convert from “Who are you?” to “I love you.” Much like his British namesake, Mr. Beans may approach life with wide-eyed caution and a dash of overthinking — but that’s part of his charm. He feels things deeply. He bonds hard. And once you’re in his circle? You are IN. He’s not a “life of the party” guy. He’s a “small dinner party, loyal companion, emotionally invested best friend” kind of guy. Mr. Beans doesn’t need the whole world. He just needs his person. And when he finds you? Comedy gold — and unconditional love — guaranteed.

Story
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 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
Meet Otis – The Gentleman with the Biggest Heart  At 2 ½ years old and 27 pounds, Otis is the perfect little package of love. This Boston Terrier mix (with maybe a dash of Min Pin magic!) is as charming as they come. Sadly, Otis lost his beloved human, and his tender heart has been looking for someone new to love ever since.  Otis is the definition of a loyal friend—he adores people and is wonderful with other dogs. With his playful spirit and affectionate personality, he’ll happily bring joy to any home. The only thing he asks is a cat-free environment, since our feline friends aren’t his cup of tea. Healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and heartworm negative, Otis is ready to start fresh. He’s not just looking for a home—he’s looking for his person, the one who will give him the love and stability he deserves.  If you’re searching for a best friend who will stick by your side through thick and thin, Otis is your boy. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 &#226&#156&#168 Could Otis be the missing piece of your heart?   Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.August 28, 2025, 8:49 am

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
This is "Onix". He is a Boston Terrier. He is 14 months old and he weighs about 13 pounds. We received a phone call from Onix's owners, a young couple, saying they never realized how much work is involved to take care of a little dog in a small apartment and they wanted to give up the dog. We wonder how much time poor Onix had to spend in his crate. How sad for Onix. Onix is a great little dog. He has a great temperament and a LOT of energy! We are looking for Onix's owner to be very familiar with and fond of Boston Terriers. You MUST own your own home preferably with a fenced in yard. ABSOLUTELY NO CONDOS. ABSOLUTELY NO APARTMENTS. Children must be 8 years old or older. Onix had his shots when he came to us. We had him neutered and tested for heartworm, which was negative. To adopt from us, you MUST have a veterinarian reference in your own name. We will not place any animal without a veterinarian reference. We get a veterinarian reference from your veterinarian which is a history of medical care administered by your veterinarian to your present or previous pet or pets. Please do not contact us if you cannot abide by our adoption rules. NO OUT OF STATE ADOPTIONS. The adoption fee for Onix is $350.00. No credit cards. If you are interested in Onix, please email us at feline55keeper@gmail.com. You can meet Onix on Saturday at Petco located at 201 Union Street in Waterbury during our adoption hours from 12:00 to 3:00. Onix will be keeping his eyes out for you! IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE STRESS THAT IN ORDER TO ADOPT FROM US, YOU MUST HAVE A VETERINARIAN REFERENCE...NO EXCEPTIONS! .
