German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Connecticut

Sweet Asha Darling Girl Asha may play a little hard to get when you first meet her, but give her about five minutes and suddenly she’s in your lap acting like you’ve been best friends forever. Once she feels comfortable, she is incredibly loving, affectionate and always ready to roll over for attention. Show Asha a toy and you may see her cutest little quirk: her teeth start chattering like she has something very important to say about it. She enjoys playing with toys, shares them nicely with her people and has a fun, active personality. After getting her energy out, she’s happy to settle in for snuggles. Asha is confident and respectful with larger dogs off leash. She reads their cues well, shares attention nicely and would likely enjoy having a big playful dog friend. Her excitement can look much bigger on leash, so she’ll need someone willing to continue helping her practice calmer greetings. Sweet Asha Darling Girl is looking for an active family who will give her a moment to warm up, plenty of opportunities to play and a cozy spot beside them when she’s ready to cuddle.

Howdy from Texas! I'm a 2-year-old, 60 lb German Shepherd/Lab mix named Franco, and I was rescued from a dilapidated property that looked like a junkyard filled with stray/lost/dumped dogs, but the owner had no funds to care for any of us. That's when a dog rescue got involved, and now 4 Little Paws is helping us find wonderful forever homes! I am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, happy, and healthy, with my vet records packed and ready to leave Texas behind! First and foremost, I am a happy, friendly, sweet, and playful goofball who gets along well with people, older kids, dogs, and dog-friendly cats. I have a medium energy level and a fun-loving attitude, and I enjoy leash walks, playing with dog friends, playing in the water, and chasing my dog toys, especially rope and stuffed toys. I am snuggly and affectionate and will happily share dog kisses. I only bark if I need to alert you, and I am housebroken. I am good in a crate; I might bark at first, but I settle down quickly. At night, I sleep in my crate or on a bed. My foster mom says I'm a happy sweetheart who's smart and eager to please. Inquire about me today. Adoption Fee: $400 Video of Franco playing parkour: https://youtube.com/shorts/9oS0l3DRyrE * 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.

Coming soon 1 year old 78lbs

Zuko Roo has the looks of a handsome prince and the sense of humor of the friend who always has a joke to tell. Once he knows you, those little husky “woowoos” start coming out, and we’re pretty sure he has some very funny things to say. If only we spoke dog! Between his striking good looks, playful bounces, and the silly side he lets you in on, this boy makes it awfully easy to fall in love. Watch his video and fall in love with this handsome, silly boy: https://youtu.be/6KCyBZyW7QU?si=7WwqE63T2sb7OaWk Zuko is approximately 5 years old and currently weighs 73 pounds. Our best guess is that he’s a German Shepherd/Husky mix, but with animal rescue, breed is always a bit of a mystery. What we do know is that he is one gorgeous guy with plenty of personality to go with that handsome face. Zuko is extremely friendly and loves spending time with people. Get to know him, and you’ll discover that underneath those distinguished good looks is a playful boy who has plenty to say. His little “woowoos” and husky howls are part of his charm, especially when his silly side comes out. Imagine having this guy along for your everyday adventures, then coming home to relax together while he fills you in on his very important dog thoughts. Zuko is dog friendly and has done well with all of the dogs we’ve introduced him to so far. He likes a little time to get acquainted before jumping into play, but once he’s ready, the play bows and happy bounces come out! He enjoys running around, playing chase, and joining in on lighthearted wrestling matches. He can be vocal during play, too, because apparently a good time deserves a little commentary. He also knows when to take a break. Between rounds of fun, you’ll find him exploring the yard or getting loved on by his favorite person. If he joins a home with another dog, a happy-go-lucky, social buddy who enjoys playing and taking breaks would be a wonderful match. Zuko would also be just as happy as your one and only furbaby. He doesn’t need another dog to help him open up or keep him entertained, but he does need a home without kitties. Have a toy handy? Zuko is ready! He loves playing with toys, and a fun game of tug-of-war is especially high on his list. He also loves treats and is a smart guy, which makes additional training a lovely opportunity to spend time together, build your bond, and give him something fun to figure out. Zuko is crate trained and, from what we’ve seen so far, comfortable spending time in his crate. He also seems to understand where the appropriate potty places are and has not had any accidents in the house with us. He’s bringing some wonderful foundations with him as he gets ready for his next chapter. We believe Zuko would do best with a semi-active family who has some experience with, or knowledge of, his guessed breeds and a home with a backyard. We can picture him joining you for hikes, little adventures, and afternoons spent exploring, then settling in at home at the end of the day. A little fresh air, a good game of tug, and time with his people sound like his kind of life. All this handsome boy really wants is someone to love him and spoil him like the prince he is. If your days could use a little more adventure, a lot more love, and the occasional “woowoo,” Zuko might be just the boy to share them with. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Anka is 12 weeks and ready to share Spooky Szn with his new family 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 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.
