Story
Meet Klaus, a wonderful, energetic Standard Poodle puppy with a bright, playful spirit and a whole lot of heart. After facing some early challenges that required a medical quarantine, Klaus has absolutely thrived thanks to the incredible care of his foster home and his naturally resilient, joyful temperament. He is a puppy who meets the world with curiosity, enthusiasm, and energy!Klaus has earned the right to be selective about his forever home! His ideal family will be familiar with poodles and prepared for their grooming, mental, and physical needs. Klaus will require professional grooming every 8 weeks at maximum, and his adopters must be prepared to maintain this throughout his life.He has been thriving with positive reinforcement training and truly enjoys learning and engaging with his people. Klaus has loved meeting volunteers at the shelter and continues to show what a social, bright boy he is.Klaus may enjoy living with another dog who matches his playful, energetic style. He is looking for a home ready to help him run, play, learn new tricks, and keep expanding his world. He is still learning to enjoy car rides, and might be able to live with dog savvy cats.Klaus is ready to give his whole heart to a committed, active, and knowledgeable family, and we can`t wait to find him the right place! If you think Klaus would be a great fit for your home, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-4pm.

Ginger is approximately 2 years old, about 40 pounds at the moment and she may have some doodle in her mix! She is being rehomed due to her family having too many other dogs. She is making great progress with house training, crate training, and leash walking. She could join households with kids 10+ and other playful dogs. No cats or apartments, please!Her foster says, `Ginger is a very happy, obedient girl. She`s very active outside running around but when inside, she enjoys laying around chewing on a Benebone or playing with her ball. She does wonderful in her crate and is almost totally house-trained, just a few accidents. She`ll make a great addition to some lucky family.`She is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on February 27th.

Story
Soft, scruffy, and quietly charming, Grits is the kind of puppy who wants to be near his people without needing to be the center of attention every second. He enjoys playtime, especially with other dogs, but once he’s had his fill he’s perfectly content hanging out close by or curling up for a nap. Grits is affectionate, gentle, and thoughtful in new situations. He may take a moment to assess what’s going on, but he settles in quickly and gains confidence with routine and reassurance. : • Affectionate and people-oriented • Dog-friendly once settled • Cat-friendly • Gentle and appropriate with kids • Submissive and responsive to redirection • Enjoys play, then happily relaxes • Generally quiet with normal alert barking : Grits would thrive in a home that values connection, consistency, and companionship. Another friendly dog would be great, but he’d also do well with people who are around often and enjoy engaging with their dog throughout the day. : He’s still working on potty training and gives clear cues when he needs to go out. A steady routine will take him the rest of the way. If you’re looking for a dog who brings calm energy, sweetness, and steady companionship, Grits could be your perfect match.   Rescue story: Grits and his brother Shrimp were found abandoned in an abandoned home by a rescue volunteer who also works as a cleaning person. She is their current foster-mom. This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.) To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com. PLEASE READ:  •    If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this.  •    All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date.    •    Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: www.sandypawsrescue.com.

Story
Scruffy. Sweet. Full of personality. Shrimp is one of those puppies who figures out the vibe quickly and settles right in. He’s affectionate and people-focused, loves a good play session, and is just as happy curling up nearby once he’s gotten his wiggles out. Shrimp enjoys the company of other dogs, is respectful with cats, and has been gentle and appropriate around kids. He can be a little unsure in brand-new situations at first, but he adapts quickly and takes his cues from the dogs and people around him. A little reassurance goes a long way with this guy. : • Affectionate and people-loving • Dog-friendly once settled • Cat-friendly • Gentle with kids • Playful with a great off-switch • Generally quiet with normal alert barking • Adjusts quickly to new environments : Shrimp would do best in a home that enjoys interaction, play, and companionship. Another friendly dog is a bonus, but not a requirement. A house setup is preferred, with a routine that gives him structure and time to connect. : He’s still polishing his potty training and gives clear cues when he needs to go out. Consistency will finish the job. If you’re looking for a dog who brings equal parts fun and sweetness, Shrimp might be your guy. Rescue story: Shrimp and his brother Grits were found abandoned in an empty home by their foster mom who happens to be a cleaning lady.   This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is  neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.)
