Story
Angus, would like to know if you are willing to open your heart and home to a spunky senior? He knows it's the holiday season and everyone dreams of a new puppy, but he is looking for that family who wants the energy and enthusiasm of a puppy but the wisdom and affection that only age can provide. Are you his Christmas miracle? His origins prior to landing at Waterbury Animal Control are unknown, but his foster mom feels that his history doesn't  matter to him.  His new experiences only improve his lease on life. He is super excited when he sees his leash and is great on a walk. He is very food motivated!  If you're in the kitchen, he is right by your side just to help clean up in case you drop something. He loves to be next to his human and sleeps in bed all night. Angus has not met a dog or human that he doesn't like and he thinks the resident foster cat is ok as well. A fenced in yard would be preferred for him as he enjoys exploring with his foster dog housemates. He will need to be on a leash at all times when not in the home or in a fenced yard because, if given the opportunity, he would be on his merry way and not look back. He would love for someone to be home often so that he can enjoy his golden years with all of the attention and snuggles that he can get. Is the New Year going to be bright for Angus with the gift of a new home? Fill out an application to fulfill his Holiday Wish. ##2565582##

Story
Name: Pancake Nicknames: Fluffernutter. Little One. Princess. Pumpkin. Crazy Girl. Breed: Terrier mix Sex: Female Age: 4 years Weight: 12 lbs. Before OMD: Animal Control seized 37 dogs from a hoarding situation (dogs were kept in a barn in filthy conditions) and reached out for help. Pancake was one of the last dogs left at animal control from the case and, especially after seeing the videos of her trembling in her kennel, we knew we needed to help. Energy Level: Medium. Loves to walk around the house carrying her toys, and play in the yard... then nap... then repeat. Affection love: Low. She wants to be in your area, wants to sleep in your bed, and wants to have your attention, but she does not want your pets....at least at first. Apartment Friendly: Not so much. She has been known to bark when alone, so shared walls are not ideal. Tagline: "Don't scare me. I poop easily" ...really. Pancake's natural reaction to being scared (of a new person picking her up, at the vet, etc.) is to release her bowels... What we love most: She is a true character, and constantly keeps us laughing. Her innocent nature. Her chewbacca yodel noises. Her full-on butt wiggles when she's excited to see foster mom. When she drapes herself, all stretched out, across the bed or couch, half on/half off. What she loves most: Greenies. Sunbathing. Yard time. Her foster siblings. Running in circles around the kitchen island, toy stuffed in her mouth, when foster mom comes home. Stealing all the toys and depositing them throughout the yard (but mainly on top of the hill, unfortunately). Cat/dog beds. Doesn't love: Being on leash or attempting to go for walks (she will freeze, thrash around, and or pancake...hence how she got her name)...basically anywhere outside the comfort of her own house/yard and anyone who isn't her foster mom. Skills: Jumping over gates or playpen walls. Keeping a close eye on you from anywhere in the house (but please don't look back and make eye contact, she's trying to be sneaky). Playing dead when being picked up or having harness put on. Kids: Nope. They are loud, chaotic, and scary. Dogs: Yes! Pancakes will thrive with another dog in the home. Cats: Yes! Housetrained: Definitely not (understandable given her history). Rugs are not safe from this girl...and she has a cool little party trick where she shimmies her booty up to poop in unattended shoes at 2am. Crate trained: Does not like to be closed into the crate, but she's often gone into the open crate with the bed and blanket. Ideal home: Low-traffic home who isn't scared off by accidents and isn't offended by a dog who doesn't want their attention at first. Her forever family should be incredibly patient, not rushing her and understanding she wants to be left initially. Over time (weeks-months) she will warm up to her people and they will get to see her full body wiggles, her hilarious noises, her prancing but the immediate expectation should be that you essentially have a cat who isn’t litter box trained (but way cuter and funnier). Pancake is spayed, vaccined, heartworm negative and microchipped. She is available for adoption to residents of CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from our website.

Story
Meet Monies!
Monies is a sweet, 2-year-old Yorkie with a gentle, shy nature—at least at first. Once he feels comfortable, he warms up quickly and becomes a loyal little shadow who never leaves your side. He’s happiest simply being with his person, whether he’s lounging beside you during a quiet afternoon or exploring the yard on a mini adventure. Monies loves being part of everything you do and wants to be included in all the moments of your day. This handsome young boy has a unique coat, a charming personality, and one stunning crystal-blue eye that’s sure to steal your heart. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, cats, and even children, despite his initial shyness. Monies will go to his new home neutered, up to date on vaccines, and dewormed. He is house trained and doesn’t need to be crated—he’s well-behaved and prefers to stay close to his people. For that reason, he’ll do best in a home where crating isn’t necessary. If you’re looking for an eye-catching little companion with a personality to match his charm, look no further—Monies is your guy. Little Paw Rescue is a non profit rescue, and currently possess our 501C3 to operate as such. Please visit us on Facebook: Little Paw Rescue. All dogs from this rescue are transported from Alabama to the Hartford, CT area and delivered in CT. Each dog will come fully vetted. Price also includes transportation and a Health Certificate as required by law. There is a 200.00 deposit required at the time of adoption to secure the transport crate. The remainder of the fee will be paid once you pick up the dog. Naturally the 200.00 comes off the total owed at pick up. To get a application approval please go to: Everylittlepawrescuee@gmail.com

Story
Meet Goldie! Goldie is a sweet, little Yorkie coming into our rescue who was saved from euthanasia. She is approximately 7 pounds and three years old. We don’t know what tragedy left her paralyzed, but she has no use of her two back legs. She will be going to the vet for x-rays and exams to see what we can figure out for long-term plan, but she gets along perfectly fine by scooting along the floor or does really great in her wheelchair. She is capable of peeing and pooping on her own, but she does not have control. She has adjusted very well to wearing a diaper and it’s truly not that difficult as she is such a little bitty girl. Would you consider opening up your heart in your home and adopting or fostering this sweet pup when she arrives at the rescue? Please visit our website at https://sites.google.com/view/muddymoosemutts/home or email pawrescued2016@gmail.com for an application. Her adoption fee is $525.

Story
Meet Benny, a super cute young adult neutered male Maltese mix, weighing about 10 lbs! Benny and Bianca came to us as local intakes when a Good Samaritan contacted us after finding them both roaming the streets in very poor condition. They were underweight and riddled with fleas. The Good Samaritan tried to find their owner but no one claimed them, and he was not in a position to keep them, so we took them into rescue and got them up to date on vetting. Bianca was found to be pregnant a short time later and is due to give birth in January 2026, so she will not be available until her puppies are weaned and she is spayed. But Benny is ready to find his furever family and put his past behind him! Benny is a friendly, sweet boy who loves everyone and just wants to be your BFF! He is very playful and enjoys running around with the other dogs in his foster home. He also loves to cuddle! This boy is a total love who does not have a mean bone in his body  He is good with other dogs, cats, people, and kids.  Benny is medically up to date, housebroken, and crate trained. Apply to meet this special boy today! **Benny will not be available until our 1/11/26 adoption event at Petco in Dayville, CT. We are accepting applications on him now! We will prioritize applicants who are able to attend the 1/11 event. If Benny is not adopted at the event, we will move on to other applicants.** Click HERE for Adoption Application: pawsrescueleague.org/adopt Adoption fees vary based on the dog and are not negotiable. As a small rescue that does not receive government funding or grants, we rely on adoption fees to stay afloat. Adoption fees help cover the following: vaccinations, wellness exams, heartworm/4DX testing, parasite prevention, spay/neuter (age-appropriate), microchipping, transport expenses, and other rescue-related overhead/administrative costs. Paws Rescue League, Inc is an all-inclusive rescue that does NOT only rescue puppies and young, healthy dogs.  We make a point to also rescue seniors, dogs with special needs, moms, and other “less desirable” dogs, knowing that we will likely incur higher veterinary expenses and that these dogs may take longer to get adopted.  As such, an individual adoption fee is not only reimbursing PRL for expenses directly related to that dog, but it is also helping us to continue our mission of taking in dogs that would otherwise be too much of a financial burden to save. We believe that ALL dogs deserve a second chance. Thank you for your support and understanding! ##2619198##
