Story
Sunny comes from a litter of nine pups. They had a rough start in life but you’d never know it. This sweet girl loves to play with siblings and foster brothers. She loves people, she likes snuggles and good naps. She’s looking for someone to give her all the love and spoiling she deserves. Reach out for more information if you would like to give her a forever 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 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.

This handsome little guy is everything people dream of in a puppy, friendly, affectionate, and always excited to be part of whatever you're doing. He loves everyone he meets and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, children, and new people. Meeko especially loves a good game of fetch and will happily chase a ball over and over before coming back for cuddles. Hes a well-mannered puppy who is learning quickly and eager to please. One thing you'll never outgrow is his adorable little baby bark—it'll melt your heart every single time you hear it. With his sweet personality and playful spirit, Meeko is sure to become a cherished member of a lucky family. Meeko's story began with one very devoted mama.

Concerned people reached out for help, but no one was able to step in. When Paws of Dixie Animal Rescue learned about this little family, we welcomed them into our rescue and made sure they would never have to struggle again. Born around May 23, Meeko is expected to stay in the same size range as his mama, around 30 - 45 pounds when fully grown. He has blossomed into a happy, healthy puppy who is ready to leave his difficult beginning behind and start the next chapter of his life with a family of his own. If youre ready to add a fun, loving, playful companion to your family, Meeko is waiting to meet you. Submit your adoption application today—you just might find your new best friend!

Story
Sadie was a rescue who came up from Texas, she just turned 4. She is very sweet but seems to like to be an only pet. She would be perfect for a couple with a fenced in yard or invisible fence. She has lived with invisible fence her whole life with no issues. She has never been mean or aggressive towards people but unfortunately does not get along with our other dog. She is a good watchdog, protective of owners and property and will definitely let you know if someone is at the door. She is very affectionate and likes a lot of love and attention.

Boxer

Female, 3 yrs 7 mos

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Good with dogs, House-trained,
Story
Name: Ada Nickname: Smushy Age: 3.5 Years Old Breed: Boxer / Pittie mix Weight: 60 lbs. Doppelganger: Olaf from Frozen (but maybe moreso his shy sister)- slightly goofy and full of love Before OMD: Ada was surrendered to animal control when her owners could no longer care for her Energy level: She is the perfect mix of Boxer playfulness and couch potato snugglebug. She loves to fetch, run, and go for walks, but settles in beautifully when it's time to chill on the couch. She is not hyper, but rather engaged and energetic during playtime. Descriptors: Cuddly, playful, silly, sweet, velcro, happy-go-lucky What we love most: Her "sploot" pose when she lies like a frog. Her head may be coated in actual velvet for how soft it is. How much she loves to be near her people. Her snorting (it's a Boxer thing, iykyk). Her sudden and silly bursts of energy, where she'll prance around with a toy in her mouth like she has won the lottery. What she loves most: Her toys (especially soft ones), treats, meal time, Collogon bones, following her humans around like a ghost (we promise it's endearing and not scary), nibbling on her toys while draped over someone's legs so she has all of her favorite things close by, and gently carrying her toys around the house as if they are her babies. Ada is also very gentle when accepting treats, which makes her easy and fun to train with. What she knows: She is a pro at "sit" and is currently learning "leave it". She is housebroken when she keeps to her walk schedule. What she is working on: Not jumping when she gets overly excited (before walks and meals). Leash manners and has been very responsive to training. Ada can be very timid and unsure in new situations and around new people. She is working on her confidence, but sometimes her fear manifests in barking at people (or absolutely nothing outside). She has not shown any signs of aggression and warms up quickly once she actually spends some time with a new person. Her least favorite things: Quick movements and loud noises Dogs: She currently lives with a female boxer (who she loves!) and goes to doggie daycare. She has shown some resource guarding and has been selective with which dogs she interacts with. She would do well with another dog to keep her busy, however it is not an requirement as she is perfectly happy with her humans! Cats: Unknown - She hasn't met any cats yet, but she would likely be fine with "dog savvy" cats. Kids: "Dog-Savvy" older kids would be fine with Ada. She has met kids while on walks and been very polite. She can be a little timid and afraid of quick movements, so small children may startle her at first. Housebroken: Yes, when she is kept to her routine. Crate Trained: Yes, she is crated during the day and goes into her crate with a treat. She did whine a little in the beginning, but now that she knows her routine, she is happy to chill in her crate until her human is home Life Goal: Ada is on a mission to pull every single toy out of the toy basket every day so she can share them with her siblings or humans. Her work is never done, though, as somehow, the toys end up back in the basket the next day, and she has to start over. Her Ideal Home: Ada is truly adaptable. She would do well in a home with or without pets as long as she gets plenty of attention. She thrives on companionship, so the more time she has with her people, the better. She hopes her new home comes with an unlimited toy budget, but she is willing to compromise on this if enough treats are involved. Ada is spayed, vaccinated, and heartworm negative. She is available for adoption to residents of CT, IL and their surrounding states.
