Meet Boone – The Little Dachshund with a Big Heart! Adoption Fee: $549 Includes transport Adoption Application - Copy & Paste https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 Sweet little Boone is ready to leave his past behind and find a family of his very own! Boone is an adorable Dachshund who is approximately 2 years old and weighs around 25 pounds. He’s a friendly, happy little guy who gets along with everyone he meets! He’s healthy, neutered, and ready to start his new life. Boone’s story is a sad one, but thankfully, it has a happy ending. He was abandoned at a business along a busy local highway, where he reportedly waited for a week and a half before someone finally picked him up and brought him to safety. We can’t imagine what this little guy went through, waiting day after day for someone to help him. Sadly, no one ever came looking for him. But that turned out to be Boone’s lucky day because he became part of our rescue, and now we’re determined to find him the wonderful home he deserves! Despite everything he’s been through, Boone is just as sweet as can be. He’s a lovable little fellow with so much to offer a family. Boone has already spent enough time waiting for someone to care. Now it’s his turn to be loved and spoiled for the rest of his life! Boone does chase cat's, so a cat free home might be best. If you’re looking for a precious little companion, Boone just might be your boy! Please submit an adoption application today and give this sweet fellow the happy ending he’s been waiting for. Here's the adoption application, please copy & paste. https://forms.gle/FmtRtYxQNnemdkdw9 **To see all of our pets available for adoption, please copy this link. https://www.petfinder.com/search/pets-for-adoption/?shelter_id%5B0%5D=AL450&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added Paws of Dixie Animal Rescue adopts in the New England area.

Story
Sweet, sweet June is the lap dog everyone needs! This little rat terrier/dachshund mix is so happy-go-lucky and laid back. She loves to run around with other dogs, but is just as content sniffing around on her own. June is great with dogs, cats, and kids. And she is tiny, weighing in at just under 10 pounds. You can easily pick her up with one hand and carry her around, and she loves it! Juney was born in early August of this year, and was found dumped on a rural dirt road with her brother in early September. She has thrived in foster and is now house and crate trained, and she sleeps through the night. Juney is not much of a chewer, especially for a puppy, and loves lying out in the grass in the sun. She has been a doll to foster and we know she will become someone’s new best friend. June is fully vetted with age appropriate shots, flea and heartworm prevention, and will be spayed before going to her new home. We don’t get many small dogs in foster, so if you’ve been waiting on a smaller breed dog, now is your chance! If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at https://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/forms PLEASE MAKE NOTE- OUR DOGS ARE FOSTERED IN ALABAMA (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED), OUR DOGS TRANSPORT TO THEIR NEW FAMILIES IN RHODE ISLAND AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED. Our rescue pets are fostered in Southern foster homes (unless otherwise stated) and are posted for adoption once they are completely vetted and ready to travel. Our pets are adoptable in Alabama and New England States. Our adoption fee includes transport fee, spay/neuter, current vaccinations, deworming, heart worm test for animals over 7 months old, all necessary vetting and an interstate health certificate. Once an application is received, our team is happy to answer all of your questions and send additional pictures and videos. Thank you for thinking rescue!

Story
Little Johnny has such a big personality! This little rat terrier/dachshund mix fella only weighs about 10 pounds and can easily be picked up with one hand, but he makes his presence known. He’s a good alert pup and will run with the big dogs, as much as his little legs will let him. This little guy is not afraid of anyone or anything. He was born around the beginning of August 2026, and was found dumped on a dirt road with his sister June. Surprisingly, he is not much of a chewer, especially for a puppy. We have noticed that he might not be a hug fan of kids, but he has grown up with cats and is fine with them. Johnny is crate and house trained, sleeps through the night, and loves lounging in the sun in his x-pen. He loves being held, though he likes to run, so will ask to get down after a few minutes. But he stays close by in the yard. Johnny has had age-appropriate shots, dewormer, and flea/heartworm prevention. He will be neutered before going to his new home. We don’t get many small dogs in foster, so if you’ve been waiting on a smaller breed dog, now is your chance!

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.

Story
DOB 12-7-2024 Wolfie is a gorgeous Red and White Long Hair! This beautiful boy loves everyone, likes to play with toys and his friends. He is neutered, heartworm negative and has received a Proheart6 preventative injection, up to date on shots and is now looking for a loving home. His adoption fee is 900.00 and his transport fee is 135.00. HEARTS is our transport, they run every 2 weeks. It's the best transport and the only one we will use. The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers. After you submit your application please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.

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 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. He has recovered well, is up to date on all vaccinations, and is microchipped.
