Story

Otto is the perfect mix of a playful puppy and a distinguished dog. He was rescued from the side of the street in Puerto Rico by his amazing foster mom there. He loves playing and running with anyone that has the energy to keep up. His Puerto Rican foster mom would run 5-miles with him every day to help him get his energy out and to keep him occupied because he really wanted to chase her cats. We do not recommend a house with cats but he is great with kids, adults, and dogs of all sizes. At his current foster family, he runs in the fenced-in yard with his foster brother. He knows basic commands but his curiosity does get the best of him sometimes. Otto is incredibly smart and is truly the perfect size companion. If you love him he will never leave your side, in the best way possible.

DAISY IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE SHE IS ADOPTED! We believe Daisy is a blend of Shepherd and Hound and is between 2-3 years old.  She has high energy and enjoys running and walks well on a leash.  She has the most unusual mottled coat of different colors.  An active home would be best for Daisy, and a fenced in yard a plus to keep her safe!   Daisy would be best as an only dog.   Daisy has been spayed, is current on her vaccinations and microchipped.  Her adoption fee of $375 includes the transport to CT.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Daisy up north to her new family.   If you have any questions, please email us at:  newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com.  You can apply to adopt Daisy here:  http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net/adoption-application22.html   THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!

Story

ZENA IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE SHE IS ADOPTED! Zena is a 6 year old lab mix. She was found chained up outside with her 9 newborn puppies at Sardis Lake. The puppies were scattered around during a heavy rainstorm, and she could not reach them. She was severely underweight and heartworm positive when she entered the rescue. She is now 50lbs and heartworm negative! She has come a long way. Zena is house trained, crate trained, and knows how to use a doggy door. She is very loving and craves attention from her people, so she would be fine as an only dog. She does get along well with her furry siblings in the foster home, but she does take time to warm up, so we recommend slow introductions. She is a very active dog and loves to play outside with her foster siblings. She has come such a long way and would love nothing more than a furever home. She has been known to jump a fence, so a tall 6ft wooden fence is recommended to keep her from taking an occasional stroll after a squirrley friend.    Zena has had all of her shots, as well as rabies vaccination, is spayed, and microchipped. Zena is ready to meet and bond with her furever family. Zena's adoption fee of $500 includes the transport to CT.   We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Zena up north to her new family.   If you have any questions, please email us at:   newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com .  You can apply to adopt her here:   http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net   THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!
