Story
Help Suzy’s Beloved Seniors Find a Forever HomeThis is Jax - an amazingly sweet boy of 14-15 years - his family gave him up to Suzy when they had a baby - what we know is that he's had his vaccinations, he's had his teeth cleaned (what's left), and vaccines - he does have a Grade 3-4 heart murmur - we are exploring medications if needed or will help. The Memphis rescue community recently lost a beloved member, Suzy of Meadow Wood Rescue, who dedicated her life to saving countless needy dogs. Following her passing, fellow rescuers have stepped in to ensure her personal dogs and rescues find loving homes. With a three-month timeline to transition these dogs, we’re focusing on rehoming her senior dogs—the ones most in need and missing their mom deeply.Paws New England is honored to assist with this effort. All the dogs have been placed in foster homes where they are settling in and adjusting well, though understandably confused and grieving. Suzy cared for these sweet seniors well, but they required updates on vaccinations, dental cleanings, and some surgical procedures. Much of this care has been completed thanks to generous community donations and veterinary support.We’re just beginning to discover each dog's unique personality and are committed to finding them loving, permanent homes as soon as possible. While we know the basics of their behavior, house training, and visible health, potential adopters should be aware that, due to limited resources, we haven’t conducted extensive tests for underlying conditions like kidney or liver issues.This is where you come in. By adopting one of Suzy’s cherished seniors, you’re offering a second chance to a needy dog—saving them from the shelter system and providing comfort in their golden years. Your home could be their sanctuary as they embark on the next chapter of their journey.Name: Jax MeadwooodBreed: Chihuahua/CrossbreedSex: MaleAge: 14 - 15 years (estimated)Weight: 10.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: UnknownMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: Over 12Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $275.00Location of dog currently: Cape CodIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.
