Story

Bailee was adopted from a rescue at the age of two. She is now seven She is a very loyal girl. Also very lovable to her owner and will want to lay close to you. She has the protective side of a Shepherd and will constantly follow you around to make sure you are good. She does live with three other dogs as of now that she has been used to, but not sure how she will do with other ones. I recently got a grandson who now walks and likes to grab at my dogs and that is not something I’m comfortable with this dog. She would be best with either a single woman or if a man showed he was not afraid she would be submissive at that point. This was my ex-husband’s dog that I can no longer keep unfortunately.

Story

Meet Rocket 🚀 Rocket is a brilliant German Shepherd mix with a big heart and an even bigger sense of adventure. She’s travelled all the way here from Seattle! She’s the kind of dog who’s happiest when she has a job to do, a trail to explore, or a game to play. Rocket absolutely shines when it comes to learning and activity—her favorite tricks are spins and jumps, and she especially loves anything involving scent work. Whether it’s running, hiking, training sessions, or other physical activities, Rocket is always ready to go. Rocket can be a little cautious around new people at first and appreciates being given time to warm up. But once she trusts you, she becomes incredibly loyal, affectionate, and deeply connected to her person. One of her favorite things in the world is being pet and sung to before breakfast each morning. Rocket would thrive with an active adopter who can give her plenty of exercise, enrichment, and opportunities to use both her body and her smart mind.

Sweet Bonnie is about 4 months old and will be waiting to meet you this weekend at one of our Connecticut adoption events! Bonnie loves to play with other pups and LOVES to hang out with nice humans. She'll be a marvelous addition to any loving home. Apply to adopt today at www.cprdogs.com. :) 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. 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

SAMMIE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE HE IS ADOPTED! "Hey there, I'm Sammie! I am a social butterfly who loves every dog I meet and really hope my future home has other pups to play with! In my foster home, my favorite times are snuggle time, playtime, and dinner time! I'm a pro at cleaning my plate. I am a bit curious about the resident kitty in my foster home, but I promise I've never been anything but polite! I'm well versed in 'sit' and adore a game of fetch. Give me a backyard, and I'll run myself into nap time. I've made many furry and human friends in my foster home, and they all seem to think I'm great! I'm working on mastering the leash and to not bark, but I am getting into the crate when asked! If you have a couch and endless love to give, I'm ready to be yours!" He is 4-5 years old and 65 lbs. He is fully vetted including neuter, microchip, and all shots including rabies shot. His adoption fee of $600 includes the transport to CT. We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Sammie up north after he is adopted. To apply to adopt Sammie, go here: http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net .

Story

PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hello there! My name is Winston, and I'm on the hunt for my forever family. I was born on March 15, 2025, and I'm growing into a handsome young pup with a big heart and an even bigger love for life. My favorite thing in the whole world? WATER! If there's a pool, pond, creek, lake, sprinkler, or kiddie pool nearby, count me in. I'll be the first one splashing around and having the time of my life. When I'm not busy practicing my swimming skills, I'm making friends. I love people, enjoy meeting new dogs, and am always excited to be part of the fun. Whether we're going for a walk, exploring somewhere new, or hanging out in the backyard, I'm happiest when I'm with my favorite humans. I'm a social, friendly guy who greets life with a wagging tail and an adventurous spirit. I have the perfect combination of playful puppy energy and sweet companionship, making me an excellent sidekick for whatever adventures come our way. If you're looking for a loyal best friend who loves everyone he meets, never turns down a chance to play in the water, and is ready to make memories with you for years to come, I think we might be a perfect match. Come meet me—I can't wait to make a splash in your life! Love, Winston 🐾
