Story
He is a riot! If you are looking for a super snuggler who loves an adventure he’s your pup. He is very curious, loves to run and play, squeaker toys don’t stand a chance with him. He loves running under Canon and having her chase him. He is very sweet and will lean into you for a full body hug. And he has the best lil legs around 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 picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, 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
&#226&#151&#143 Energy level: low-moderate &#226&#151&#143 Potty trained: needs assistance &#226&#151&#143 Fenced yard needed: no &#226&#151&#143 Shared walls ok: no &#226&#151&#143 People: all &#226&#151&#143 Dogs: friendly with small dogs &#226&#151&#143 Other: special needs with mobility and bladder expression   Overview Meet Printz, a sweet 6 year and 4 months old red smooth coat dachshund who's looking for a special family to cherish him. At 17.2 pounds, this loving boy proves that good things come in medium packages! Despite facing some mobility challenges, Printz maintains a wonderfully positive attitude and has a heart full of love to share.   Environment Printz is seeking a patient and nurturing home where someone can be present most of the time, as he gets a bit anxious when left alone. While he's currently on crate rest due to a back injury and needs help with mobility, he still enjoys the simple pleasures in life. He does well walking with assistance using a sling and is perfectly content in homes without a yard. He's well-behaved in his crate when his family needs to step out, but he can be vocal so shared walls are probably not a good idea. His reasonable energy needs and gentle nature make him an excellent companion.   Pets & People Printz is a very loving dog who thrives on human connection and wants nothing more than to be near his person. While initially shy, he quickly warms up to show his affectionate personality. He's a social butterfly with other small dogs and does very well in multi-dog households, but is untested with children or cats. He can be vocal around larger dogs, but this is likely due to his size and mobility situation. He's gentle when taking treats and very food-motivated, which makes him easy to bond with.    Health Printz has some special medical needs that require a dedicated family. He currently needs assistance with bladder and bowel expression due to his back injury. He can take trazodone as needed to help manage any discomfort or anxiety. His mobility requires some extra support, and he uses a sling to help him walk comfortably. These needs are manageable with the right care routine, and his sweet personality makes it all worthwhile.   Location Printz is available for adoption from Gastonia, NC. Due to his special needs, he would prefer a home within a reasonable driving distance, as he can find long car rides challenging. Please email autenlinda@yahoo.com with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above. The adoption fee is $150.00  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 27, 2025, 9:53 am

Please ensure you understand and can meet the needs of this dog before applying. &#226&#151&#143 Energy level: high &#226&#151&#143 Potty training: trained &#226&#151&#143 Fenced yard: nice to have &#226&#151&#143 Shared walls ok: yes &#226&#151&#143 People: older kids+ &#226&#151&#143 Dogs: most &#226&#151&#143 Other: heartworm treatment Overview Looking for a spirited companion with personality plus? Mini black beauty Gerta might be your perfect match! Gerta is a bright, super interactive 4-year-old who weighs in at a petite 17 pounds. She came to Little Paws as an owner surrender and is now ready to find her forever family who can appreciate her endless entertainment value and zest for life. Environment Gerta is a high-energy girl who needs walks and play every day. She's fully potty trained and loves walks while being great on a leash, making those daily adventures a pleasure. While a yard would be nice for her to enjoy, it's not a necessity. She's also adaptable to apartment living since she's not too noisy, making her suitable for homes with shared walls. She's uncomplaining about her crate when necessary and is very content when left to her own devices, making her a good companion for people with regular work schedules. Pets & People Gerta is initially shy with new people but warms up nicely with proper introductions. She does well with older children on a case-by-case basis, but homes with crawlers and toddlers aren't recommended. With other dogs, she gets along wonderfully with male dogs and larger female dogs, though smaller female dogs are not a good match for her. Around food, Gerta can be a bit snatchy, so careful treat-giving is advised. Her most endearing quirk? She's incredibly demanding for cuddles in the absolute cutest way possible! Health Gerta is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm and will be entering the second month of her three-month protocol soon. Her adopters will need to be committed to seeing her treatment through to completion. For car rides, she does fine on shorter 15-20 minute journeys, but requires anti-nausea medication for longer trips. Location Gerta is available for adoption from Fairmont, West Virginia. Please email sydneypringle@yahoo.com with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above. The adoption fee for Gerta is $375.&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139&#226&#128&#139  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 15, 2025, 1:16 pm
