Story
Meet Shelby, your future best friend and ultimate sidekick! One of the best things about Shelby, besides her adorable giant ears, is her willingness to learn and her ability to transition to new situations. How do we know? Her southern foster has sponsored four weeks of one-on-one training for Shelby in Connecticut.Shelby was having some difficulty settling. She's super smart and a very active girl, and she could not contain her excitement.Enter Dogs by Doug - a fabulous trainer who sent us this update after one week of training - ~ She can easily walk by other dogs without distraction. ~ Further testing has been done and she loves other dogs!~ No small animals for this girl - she has a "thing" for rabbits - not safe.~ She's super social with every person she meets~ She's brilliant, eager to learn, and please.~ She has energy, but when given the right amount of mental and physical stimulation, she's fantastic.~ She's very food motivated, which only makes continued training easy!This black-and-white beauty was recently rescued from the streets and is fully recovered from a hip injury that required surgery. She doesn’t let that slow her down, and she should have no further complications from the procedure.She loves playing fetch with her squeaky balls and romping in the snow. A loyal, loving pup eager to learn and please, Shelby enjoys playing with other dogs after a slow and proper introduction. She’s eager to find her forever home and excited about all the memories and adventures you’ll create together. Shelby is the perfect companion for someone looking to do life together. She will be the ideal training pal! She understands boundaries, but is a typical puppy. Shelby is currently being fostered in Connecticut and will come to you with weeks of training. You will meet with Shelby and the trainer so you can continue all the hard work she's doing with Doug.She kennels like a pro. She is also fully house-trained! If you’re ready for a loving and loyal companion who will bring endless fun, excitement, and affection to your life, Shelby is the one for you! Name: ShelbyBreed: Malinois Mix(those ears....) Sex: FemaleAge: 10 MonthsWeight: 40 lbsSpayed/Neutered: SpayedVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testing. Housetrained:  YesMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: Over 12Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats/small Animals: NoLocation of dog currently:  Connecticut   Puppy Adoption Fee:  $400.00The adoption fee also includes the transport fee when applicable.ATTENTION PUPPY ADOPTERS:  You must attend training/behavior classes with your new dog unless you are an experienced dog owner and your adoption coordinator is comfortable with your experience.  This requirement is for the benefit of you and your puppy, so if you experience behavior issues, you have a point of contact.  PLEASE—Think long and hard before adopting a puppy. Consider the lifestyle change this puppy will come with. He cannot be crated for more than 3-4 hours until he's older. Puppy-proofing your home will be necessary. Puppies scratch and nip, so if you have small children, can they handle this? Training will be so crucial in this puppy's life. Do you have the time?IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue.

Story
Honey Bear is a very lazy and laid back dog. She loves snuggling and isnt a huge fan of doing more exercise than necessary. She is generally a big clumsy couch potato/cuddle bug. If you try to take her on overly long walks, you will be stuck carrying home an 80lb dog who gave up on moving. Honey talks a lot and likes to have conversations. She loves people and other (well-behaved/balanced) dogs, but should not be allowed around small animals. She prefers gentle wrestling over anything else for play, as she loses interest in toys fairly quickly. She generally prefers to avoid challenging/frightening/loud activities. Honey is also, and I say this lovingly, very slow. Do not expect her to learn any crazy tricks or to be particularly fast at following commands. She takes her time thinking, is easily distracted, and sometimes requires patience. Honey would do best with someone patient and slow paced. If you are looking for a big dog to snuggle rather than to exercise with she's it.

Story
Meet Xeus! My sister is looking to rehome her sweet 2 year old pup, Xeus. He’s an XL American Bully / American Staffy mix with a heart full of love and so much personality. Xeus is a total cuddle bug who adores his toys, listens well, and loves being outside. He is super energetic and would thrive with someone who has an active lifestyle, whether it’s going for walks, runs, or just playing in the yard. Hes amazing with people and great with kids, and just wants to be around someone who can give him the time and space he deserves. Hes not neutered yet, but he is healthy, happy, and ready to find his forever family! This is a really tough decision for my sister, but she knows the best thing for Xeus is a home that can give him everything he needs. If you or someone you know is looking for a loyal, loving, and playful companion, please reach out.

Story
Meet Pippa!Wrinkles for daaaaaays ðŸ˜\x8DPippa is a two year old bulldog and her size and height make us think Old English Bulldogge rather than your typical short, stout lowriders. Not only does Pippa have wrinkles for days but she's also got legs for days and she's much taller than what you would expect from a typical bulldog. She weighs about 73lbs and she is all muscle...and beauty and grace, obviously.Pippa's personality is pure sunshine. She is bright and warm and you just can't help but smile when you see her. She came from a not so great situation and it's absolutely heartbreaking because she is such a loving dog full of life and joy and pure enthusiasm. She's a social butterfly that prefers people above all else - even snacks! She loves meeting new friends and watching her little nub wiggle when she sees another dog will make your day, if not your entire week. She's a smart girl that knows her cues and likes to show them off almost as much as she likes playing with tennis balls. Walks are her passion, especially when you let her investigate everything. Given her size, she's not all that terrible on a leash but she is sturdy enough (and occasionally stubborn enough) to throw her weight around to go where she wants to go. We haven't seen any resource guarding or food aggression or anything even remotely similar from her. Sharing is caring!For Pippa, we are looking for a home that can keep up with her love of walks and also has breed experience (brachycephalic breeds that understand allergies, the risks of overheating, etc). Other dogs in the home would be fine. No cats. Kids 12+. To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application.
