Hi! I’m Lily! I was found behind a church dumpster with my puppy, starving and barely surviving. My puppy got adopted but I’ve been in boarding since the summer! I’m now thriving in my foster home with my foster brothers! I love to play, nap, cuddle and run around the backyard. I’m a strong girl who wants a family of her own. If you would like to add Lily to your forever home, just go to goofyfootrescue.org and fill out an application.

Story
Meet Atticus, a SUPER sweet and lovable ~3 year old neutered male terrier/Boxer/lab mix (see pic of Embark DNA results), weighing about 54 lbs! This special boy was picked up as a stray by animal control in east TN. He spent some time in a shelter before being taken into rescue and transported up north, where he has been with his foster family for 7 months now. His foster family absolutely ADORES him and they don’t understand how he hasn’t been adopted yet.  Atticus is a friendly, goofy lovebug who just wants to love and be loved He also thinks he is a lap dog and he dares you to tell him otherwise! He has a zest for life and you can tell by the way he looks at you with such love in his eyes that he is DEEPLY thankful for being given a second chance. He will make you laugh every single day with his silly antics, and then he will happily be your little spoon when you're ready for bed. He is also very smart and knows many commands, he is food motivated and a fast learner!  This handsome guy is a true social butterfly! He absolutely LOVES people, and he is excellent with kids. He loves vigorous pets and butt scratches, and he will happily wiggle his WHOLE body with excitement when you give him attention! He gives the best hugs and kisses and makes the cutest like piggy noises when he is happy   Atticus does well with the resident dogs in his foster home, but he is dog selective and is typically not a fan of large fluffy dogs or dominant dogs. He tends to do better with dogs who are smaller than him. He does have some resource guarding tendencies when it comes to other dogs and food/treats (we always recommend feeding dogs separately regardless). He has not shown any resource guarding tendencies with people, only with other dogs. He has not been cat treated, so we are unsure how he would do with cats.  Atticus came to us with some reactivity to other dogs, which has unfortunately caused him to not "show" well at adoption events. His foster family has been working hard with him on this, with the help of K9 Rehab in Watertown, CT. He is now e-collar trained and walks beautifully on leash, even surrounded by other dogs. We are SO proud of the amazing progress he has made! As part of their Underdog program, K9 Rehab has generously offered continued training classes to Atticus’s adopter for FREE!  Atticus’s ideal home is one where he will be a cherished family member and given the love and attention that he so deserves. He is happiest when he is with his people, so it is important that he goes to a home where he will be welcomed on the couch and in his human’s bed - he is the perfect snuggle buddy! Additionally, we would like to see Atticus go to someone who is willing to keep up with his training to help him be the best version of himself. He is a truly wonderful dog who will absolutely thrive in the right home, and we just know that home is out there. Atticus is medically up to date and housebroken. Apply to meet this special boy today! Click HERE for Adoption Application: pawsrescueleague.org/adopt 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! ##2553222##

Story
Lady is a very special dog she is extremely affectionate but very excitable loves walks loves the dog park loves attention loves her bones loves her treats but she needs someone who can devote time to her outdoors and indoor due to a health issue with our elderly father she's not thriving in our home and we don't want to see her suffer without the attention and the love and the outdoor activities that she deserves and so much more. She is ok with kids but prefers to be the center of attention. She is picky when it comes to being around other dogs. She does does not like cats or small dogs. Lady is not a full bred Pittie. She will love on you and protect you like her own family if you treat her right and love her. She loves to eat cooked butternut squash and pumpkin. She loves her raw bones with peanut butter. She loves to play. Lady was a rescue when I got her about 3 years ago. I love her so much but due to my current situation I must re-home her.

Story
♥ APPLY FOR COLBY ♥ I'm Colby Jack! I was born on November 20, 2020. Right now, I’m a big, loveable boy weighing in at 85lbs, and I happen to be a Pitbull mix! It’s been a bit of a tough time for me lately, as I am in need of a new home. This is not because of anything I’ve done; rather, it’s just life throwing me a curveball. It makes me a little sad since I’ve been with my family since I was just a tiny puppy, and they mean the world to me.   But enough about that—let’s focus on the happy things! I’m a super friendly guy with a heart full of love, especially for kids and even our furry feline friends. I thrive in a home filled with giggles and purrs! However, I do have to be honest and say that I’m not really a fan of having other dogs around. It’s really important for me to be the only doggo in the house so that I can be the center of attention!    Given the changes that have happened in my life, I think it’ll be best for me to take things slow when it comes to meeting new people or exploring new environments. My whole world is a little topsy-turvy right now, so having patience and understanding from my new family will really help me adjust. Trust me, I promise to reward your kindness with all the love and loyalty I have to offer!   Now, let’s talk about my absolute favorite things—swimming and water! I can’t get enough of it! Whether it’s splashing around in a pool or just enjoying a nice bath, I’m all in. Oh, and I have the cutest little rain boots that I wear when it’s wet outside—those are truly my favorite! They make me feel so adventurous and stylish!   I can’t wait to find my forever home where I can continue to spread joy and love. If you're looking for a big, friendly buddy to share your life with, I might just be the pup for you! Looking forward to meeting you soon!   ♥ APPLY FOR COLBY ♥ ##2403805##
