Story
This handsome hunk is a 1.5-year-old Bloodhound/Great Dane mix with a big heart and an even bigger personality. Weighing in at over 80 pounds, Scooby is a goofy, high-energy adventurer who’s always ready for his next big hike or backyard play session. Whether it’s a game of tug-of-war or chasing after a ball, this boy is all in. Scooby is house-trained, crate-trained, and incredibly smart—he’s eager to please and thrives with structure and stimulation. He plays well with other dogs who can match his playful, enthusiastic vibe, but he's a bit too interested in chasing cats to share a home with them. While he loves people and is a total cuddle bug with his favorites, he’d do best in a home without small children due to his size and energy level. If you’re an active person or family looking for a loyal adventure buddy who also doubles as a snuggle companion, Scooby might just be your perfect match. He’s looking for a home where he can be the center of attention, explore the world.

Story
  Meet June – A Graceful Soul in Great Dane Form   There are dogs… and then there is June. A vision in brindle and white, this 3-year-old, 100-pound Great Dane is the embodiment of quiet majesty and gentle strength. With her long, elegant stride and serene presence, June moves through the world like a gazelle—light on her feet, yet grounded in love.  Rescued by a small town animal control officer, this girl was in a neglect situation and her life was spared from more years of a sad existence.  Today you would never know her heart and soul had been so mistreated. June has not only captured hearts—she has healed them as well as her own. In her foster home, she has proven to be a gentle treasure: housebroken, well-mannered, and endlessly affectionate. She delights in the company of other dogs and finds pure joy in the simple pleasure of play. There is a poetic softness to her, as though she knows what it is to be lost, and what it means to be found.   June is not suited for a home with cats, as her instincts to chase are strong. However, she would thrive in a peaceful home with a securely fenced yard—an open space where she can run with the elegance that seems to be written into her very soul.   To know June is to witness grace in motion. She is a loyal and loving companion, ready to offer her whole heart to the person who opens theirs in return.   If you feel called to give this extraordinary girl the forever home she so deserves, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com. Your life will be all the more beautiful for it.   PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMay 7, 2025, 9:39 pm

Story
Beaux is living it up in Connecticut with a wonderful foster and foster siblings.Beaux is a big, handsome boy who enjoys long walks (He was in the Christmas parade this past year). Beaux's previous owner found himself down on his luck, and both he and Beaux ended up in a bad place. Thanks to some really nice people, both got the help they needed. Beaux's owner was not able to take him back home, but Beaux found a great place to hang out while waiting for my forever home. Beaux is a medium-energy dog and is happy to go for a walk and then chill with his people. He likes playing with toys but also likes getting attention from people, chilling on the sofa, watching TV, and eating all the popcorn. Beaux loves people and other dog. Best to feed him separately as we were told he has some resource guarding with his food but so far at the Resort they have not seen this.This boy has been calm and just loves the attention of children, but we are saying older kids due to his size and activity level. And he passed his cat testing!!!Beaux is housetrained and also is crate-trained but is not the biggest fan of being in his crate. He is also leashed trained but still will pull sometimes. So as you can see a little proper training to fine tune the little things and you will have an amazing buddy. Beaux perfect home/family should be familiar with larger dogs. An active person or family would be great, but you do not need to be super active. Beaux's size might be a bit much for some, but once you get to know him, you will see his heart is as big as he is.Check them out playing with his canine foster sibling and passing his cat test very well:https://youtube.com/shorts/qhoRWrcFAow?si=GVGvLpes4pjBtn8ehttps://youtube.com/shorts/sUMnqvRlI1A?si=nosC-Z9j9TpVS-8mName: Beaux Local Breed: Crossbreed - something cute - maybe some Great Dane in there.Sex: MaleAge: 5 years 10 months (4/21/25 estimated)Weight: 72 lbs as of 4/21/25 Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm:  Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS: Good with Children: Over 7Good with Dogs: Yes Really likes the bigger dogs more than small.Good with Cats: YesAdoption Fee: $400.00Location of dog currently:  ConnecticutIMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet 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.
