Hello everyone. My name is Catarina. I go by Cat. My momma was a Lab mix and my daddy was a Boxer. I came into rescue being the sweet crazy girl you see right now. I love people, children, dogs/ puppies, and cats/kittens. For the most part house broken, sort of leash trained, doggy door trained, crate trained. I have those boxer long legs. I would love to be a running buddy, go camping, hiking, yard work, anything with you. When the sunlight hits my coat, I have some areas of my coat looking like dark rich chocolate. Please fill out an application and submit a deposit to begin my journey home to you.

Story
Introducing Cali, a beloved senior sweetheart searching for her final forever home. This gentle soul finds herself in need of a new family, not because of anything she's done, but due to circumstances beyond her control. Sadly, her previous family had to make the difficult decision to part ways due to their child's severe allergies.Cali may be older, but she's still full of love and life. She's the epitome of a low-maintenance companion, content to spend her days lounging on the couch or lying at your feet. Cali isn't one to make a fuss; in fact, she's hardly a barker at all. Housebroken and well-behaved, she's a true gem of a dog.Although Cali misses her canine companion, Sadie, she's adjusting to her new reality with grace. While she may be a little lonely without her sister, she's slowly adapting to her new circumstances. Cali is a seasoned traveler too, perfectly comfortable riding in the car without any signs of distress.Her amiable nature extends to her interactions with both children and other dogs, making her a wonderful addition to any family. Having been pampered and adored in her previous home, Cali dreams of finding a similar lifestyle to spend her golden years.While Cali can be left alone without issue, she thrives in the company of her humans. Given the recent changes in her life, a home where someone is present most of the time would suit her best.If you're searching for a loyal and loving companion who will be by your side through thick and thin, look no further than Cali. Embrace the opportunity to give this special girl the final forever home she deserves. Don't wait—Cali is ready to shower you with all the love and companionship she has to offer.Name: Cali JacobBreed: Boxer/CrossbreedSex: FemaleAge: 8 years  (estimated)Weight: 40Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $250.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:   Texarkana Tx IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

Story
Sweet Boy's journey from a country dog lost in the city to finding a loving home is truly heartwarming. His good nature and charm undoubtedly helped him navigate through tough times, living off scraps and relying on his instincts to survive.It must have been a relief for Sweet Boy when that kind person stopped and took him home, providing him with the care and nourishment he so desperately needed. Now, fully vetted and enjoying three square meals a day, he's thriving in his new environment.Learning to walk on a leash and greeting everyone he meets shows Sweet Boy's eagerness to adapt and embrace his new life. His friendly nature extends not only to humans but also to other dogs, making him a joy to be around.At 40lbs, Sweet Boy seems to have found his perfect balance of health and happiness. No longer wet and hungry, he can finally enjoy the comforts of a stable and loving home. His leisurely lifestyle is a testament to the peace and contentment he now experiences, far removed from the struggles of his past.Name: Sweet BoyBreed: Boxer-LabSex: MaleAge: 1 year  (estimated)Weight: 40.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: UnknownGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $450.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)Location of dog currently:  Memphis  TN   Texarkana Tx     IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.

This girl loves to play with toys and other doggos but also loves a good cuddle.  is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (puppies under the age of 6 months may not be sterilized prior to adoption, if this is the case your adoption coordinator will discuss the process with you)  To adopt or learn more about: , you must fill out an adoption application. To find the application, visit our website: WWW.SANDYPAWSRESCUE.COM ** PLEASE READ: If a dog/puppy is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. In some cases this dog may be pending an adoption already, and their profile has not been updated yet. Please note, SPR does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated otherwise. All breeds listed are educated best estimates by transferring shelter staff, our volunteers or our vets. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them the All American MUTT.  Our dogs are rescued from various situations (kill-shelters, owner surrenders, strays, etc). It is most likely that both their parents were strays and mixes of some sort. If you are interested in this dog, you MUST submit an application. Sandy Paws Rescue does not a have a public shelter in Mass, so there is no building you can visit without an appointment. Our dogs live in private foster homes or boarding kennels down south until adopted, or in some cases in our very small private kennel facility on Martha's Vineyard and foster care homes through out MV, Cape Cod and other parts of MA. A large majority of our dogs are adopted/spoken for prior to transport and release from state mandated isolation. To learn more about our rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of FAQ’s on our website at WWW.SANDYPAWSRESCUE.COM. **The FIRST step in adopting an animal from our rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.

Story
Kobe is a two year old pit mix. He loves going for walks, playing with toys, going on car rides. He does have energy and needs structured exercise, but he can't go forever so if you're looking for a dog who can climb mountains with you, it's not Kobe. He’s very friendly with the people he knows and trusts, but that list is short, and he is weary of strangers. He needs slow introductions to new people in order to warm up to them. Kobe will need an adopter that understands his need to take things slow, both with new people and new environments. Kobe is dog selective. He is not a dog who you should be taking to the dog park or anywhere where there is loose, unstructured play with random dogs, but he will definitely do well living with another dog or having dog friends that he is introduced too properly that is of a good temperament. He does not like dogs who are super in his face. He also does okay with cats, as long as the interactions are monitored. Kobe is well trained, knows basic commands, walks well on leash, travels well in the car and has pretty good manners around the house. He loves his crate as well. His ideal home is a home with one or two adults only and possibly another well balanced dog. Kobe is a follower and he will pick up another dogs bad habits, as well as bounce energy off of them. For this reason, he should live with a dog who is secure and even keeled, not anxious or a dog with behavioral issues. Whoever adopts him should be comfortable handling him and advocating for his space when necessary. He needs someones lead to follow. Because of his low confidence and general distrust of the world, he can make poor decisions when left to is own devices. That's where structure, rules and guidance will come into play to help him navigate the world around him! He will have lifelong training support, but needs someone who is open to our guidance and can follow our instruction. PLEASE DO NOT INQUIRE ABOUT KOBE IF: -ANYONE under 18 lives in your home -You have roommates -You are against crates -You are not open to balanced training If you're interested in Kobe, email us at caredogvolunteers@gmail.com. *PLEASE NOTE: All dogs are in foster care all over MA. They are NOT at the cat shelter, which is the address listed on Petfinder. There are ONLY cats there. We do not set up meet and greets with dogs until after you've been approved to adopt. Please do not email asking us if you can come by and meet a dog the same day.*

Story
VISITORS LIMITED TO THOSE WHO HAVE SUBMITTED APPLICATIONS: https://lighthouseanimalshelter.org/dog-adoption-application/ -- 4 year old, 50 lb. female Pitbull Mix Dogs: With a slow introduction, Zoe loves other pups and will do zoomies in the yard out of excitement. Her ideal home probably wouldn't take her to a dog park but she'd still like to spend time with dogs that she meets properly and is familiar with. Cats: Zoe can live with cats who are tolerant of a playful pup. Zoe is a smart, beautiful, sweet girl. When we first got her at Lighthouse, she was insecure meeting new people. The more that we’ve gotten to know her, she’s come out of her shell with regular volunteers and has shown us how loving and silly she can be. When she sees someone that she loves, her little nub tail doesn’t stop wagging and all she wants to do is for you to say hi to her and welcome her into your lap for snuggles. Once you have her trust, there is no turning back! She is loyal and will always greet you with a smile on her face. Zoe is house trained and crate trained. Zoe has been to professional training so she knows basic commands and also knows some fun ones like how to give a high five. Zoe's forever home should be understanding about her insecurity with new people and will want to continue with her obedience training so that when she does get scared, she will listen to you and know that she can trust you. -- We do not adopt on a first-come-first-serve basis, but rather by the best match between dog and family, although we will factor in the order of applications if there are equally good matches. Our adoption fee for adult dogs is $450 which covers the costs of vetting (spay, vaccinations, heartworm testing, preventatives while in our care, deworming and microchip) and any boarding or transport fees incurred in each dog's rescue. Senior dogs are $250.

Story
Visitors are limited to those with approved applications. Adopt: lighthouseanimalshelter.org/adopt Foster: lighthouseanimalshelter.org/foster Thank you! Introducing Ariel - the perfect balance of "outdoorsy" and "Netflix and chill." This pup is all about chasing after toys and exploring new places on walks, but also loves winding down with her humans for some cuddle time. She may be a little shy around new people, but once you earn her trust, she's a velcro dog through and through. And let's not forget those gentle kisses - swoon! She's a smarty-pants too, always eager to please for a treat. Her previous foster family says she's already house trained, so no need to worry about any accidents. She is also crate-trained. All in all, Ariel is looking for a loving family who can give her the patience she needs to feel right at home. Apply now, and get ready for some serious snuggle sessions. Other Dogs: Ariel used to live with another dog before her owner passed away. The two of them ended up at a high-intake shelter in the south and Lighthouse pulled them both. Her brother found his forever home, and now Ariel is patiently waiting for hers! Ariel can sometimes be reactive toward other dogs when on-leash. Her reactivity stems from overexcitement and wanting to play right away with another dog. Cats: Unknown - she can be tested for applicants
