Story
Pretty Princess Pawlene is a puppy mill survivor, 12 lbs., around age 4, who was adopted in 2025. Through no fault of her own, she was returned to her foster home on August 31, 2026. Her family was no longer able to care for her. Pawlene, aka Pawlette or Letty, is a very sweet and happy girl who enjoys living the good life. Pawlene gets along well with the four Littles in her foster home. In her previous home, she lived in peace and harmony with two cats and liked to cuddle with them. She had a doggie door plus puppy pads. While she was doing well learning to walk on leash when she was first at her foster home, she hasn’t had any recent practice. A home with a fenced yard is preferred. Due to the deplorable conditions she initially came from, she has limited vision in one eye, but it doesn’t affect her. She does need to slim down a bit, so she is now on a weight management diet. Pawlene’s new human(s) will be very lucky to have her join their family!*Pawlene is in a foster home in Dunkirk, NY. Meet & Greets can be arranged for approved applicants.*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure she is a great fit.If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email, as we receive many phone calls.We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
