Story
Meet Pip!Pip is a good boy who is just overwhelmed by the world. He's still trying to figure out his place in it which can be difficult when you're in a brand new environment surrounded by unfamiliar people and other animals. There are a lot of new sounds and smells and when you're already a timid guy, it can be a lot.Pip is a young guy at about 18mo. We genuinely have no idea what breeds went into making this guy. He's about 26lbs and he is full grown - he's like a tall dachshund. There is also probably some hound in there as well. He is VERY barky at first so apartments/shared walls may not be the best environment for him.Pip will need someone patient. He so desperately wants to be loved but he lacks the confidence and the security to actively seek it out. As previously mentioned, he will BARK HIS HEAD OFF but then just suddenly sit next to you quietly. Once he's comfortable with you and once he trusts you, he is a big goof - he's eager to jump up on you and he's eager to show off his "sit"! He's actually pretty good on a leash, loves plush toys and tennis balls, and takes treats very gently - we love a boy with manners.He does do well with other dogs and a more confident, outgoing dog may help him build up some confidence of his own. Right now, he is absolutely terrified of cats - we will retest him when he's settled in a bit more to see if that sticks. We would prefer a home without kids or with older kids - he is nervous and sudden, quick movements can make him flinchy and jumpy.If you think you can be a safe place for Pip to build his confidence and REALLY bloom into the dog we know he can be, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application. Once complete, you can email it to us at fpas1@foreverpaws.com.

Story
Meet Willow, a small, gentle soul with the sweetest personality. While she may take a little time to warm up to new people and situations, once she trusts you, she is incredibly loving and devoted.Willow was rescued alongside her puppy on the side of a busy Tennessee highway. She still carries a mark around her neck from what was likely an old collar, rope, or chain — a quiet reminder of the difficult life she left behind.Now safe in foster care, Willow is blossoming into a wonderful companion. She is calm, low-key, and happiest simply relaxing with her people or curling up on the couch nearby. She can be a bit skittish with new things, so she would thrive with someone patient and understanding who will help continue building her confidence.Although it took her a few days to settle in, Willow now lives peacefully with seven other dogs of all ages in her foster home. She walks beautifully on leash, does well meeting people and dogs while out, rides nicely in the car, and is fully housetrained with no accidents. She also settles quietly in her crate at night and while her foster is away at work.Willow would do best in a calm, laid-back home either as an only dog or with another gentle, easygoing companion. She’s a truly special little girl who is ready to leave her past behind and finally enjoy the safe, loving forever home she deserves.Name: WillowBreed: Dachshund/Crossbreed   (Breed mix is not guaranteed-no DNA testing done).Sex: FemaleAge: 3 years  (estimated)Weight: 30.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Positive on testing, but treatment all completed!Microchipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: NoAdoption Fee: $550.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)                       $100-150 additional mandatory quarantine fee for Massachusetts residents.Location of dog currently:    Tennessee IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption veterinary 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.

Don't let their age fool you—they have plenty of energy, love life, and still act much younger than their years! Meet Scooby Scooby enjoys his walks but his favorite exercise happens indoors! Every single day, he proudly empties the toy box to make sure every squeaky toy still squeaks. Every. Toy. Every. Day. It's one of his many charming quirks that is sure to make you smile. Scooby does resource guard his bones, so mealtime and special treats are best managed appropriately. He and Pepper have always been the only dogs in their home and would love to remain the center of someone's world. However, they could happily live with another respectful, easygoing dog that understands Scooby's boundaries and won't interfere with his prized bones. Scooby is a healthy little guy who recently had a dental procedure that included 13 extractions, along with a full blood panel and removal of a small growth on his chest. He has recovered well, is up to date on all vaccinations, and is microchipped.   Meet Pepper Pepper likes to stay fit by chasing squirrels and chipmunks and enjoying long walks on leash. When he's finished with his daily workout, his favorite place is curled up next to his person for a good snuggle. Pepper is a healthy little guy who recently had a dental procedure that included 18 extractions, along with a full blood panel and removal of a large fatty tumor.
