Story

Meet Beetle! Beetle is a friendly, lovable Staffordshire Terrier mix who’s truly one of a kind. About 2 years old and weighing approximately 58 lbs, this handsome boy is neutered, house trained, and full of affection. Often described as “cat-like,” Beetle loves rubbing up against his people, sitting on you, and soaking up hugs. He’s extremely people-oriented and forms strong bonds with everyone he meets. If you’re looking for a dog who wants to be close and involved in daily life, Beetle is a perfect match. Beetle does well with other dogs and was previously housed with another dog, though they are not bonded. He would be happy as an only dog or with a new canine sibling. Because he is strong, a home with older children would be best. He enjoys bath time, would make a great hiking or adventure partner, and is still working on basic training. With structure, consistency, and love, Beetle will thrive. His owner couldn’t take care of him and Beetle is ready for the new forever home he deserves.

Story

Theo is a gorgeous red and white boy that is a gentle giant. He is approximately 2 years old and weighs 72 lbs. Shockingly, Theo has been owned since a puppy, but his owner left on a “vacation” and never came back. The owner’s mom took over his care, but the gentle giant Theo is so submissive, all of the other dogs were bullying him to the point they were ganging up on him and attacking him. The new owner contacted us for help as her dogs attacked him so badly, he needed veterinary care as he was covered in blood and limping. We got him to the veterinarian where he received the care he needed, and we knew we could not put him back in that home, or death was imminent for him. So now, Theo is in a foster home, fully healed and now he is ready for his forever home! Theo is so submissive, gentle, kind and loving. He does not have a mean bone in his body. He would be wonderful with children of all ages because of how sweet he is. He is fostered with other dogs, and even though he was bullied and attacked, he still loves being around other dogs! He gets along with the smallest and biggest dogs. Please just make sure your dog or dogs are not bullies when considering adoption, as we do not want Theo to go through history again. Theo has met his current fosters kitties, and he does great with them. If anything, he is afraid of the kitties! He is house and crate trained. He is not a big fan of the crate, and you must give him a push to get in it, but once he is in, he sleeps through the night. We think even without a crate, he would do wonderfully sleeping on the couch or even your bed! Theo does amazing on a leash and would be great in a home that is calmer to medium active. He is not an overly active dog and is content with neighborhood walks or even just hanging out in the backyard. If you’re looking for a smart, loyal, calm, loving, and all-around perfect boy, please consider adopting Theo. Theo will be neutered, he is heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention and will receive a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to adoption. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, Enfield, New Haven and Dayville, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh and Falls Church, MD We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.

Story

Meet Lola &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Lola is an approximately 10-month-old 50lb female American Staffordshire Terrier who was found roaming the roads alone… lost and forgotten. Despite whatever she experienced before rescue, she has one of the sweetest temperaments you could ask for. Lola absolutely loves people and just wants someone to love her back. She is the kind of dog who will quickly become your shadow, your best friend, and your most loyal companion.Lola is crate trained and seems housebroken. She has good manners and just pulls a bit on the leash but corrects easily. She just wants to please! &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Lola is still a little unsure around other dogs, so we believe she would do best: • As the only dog, or possibly with larger, well-balanced dogs • Preferably no cats (can be discussed) • Older children preferred Must be local if you have other dogs to do a proper introduction. This is important to help set Lola up for success. This beautiful girl deserves a family who will show her what it truly means to be safe, loved, and never forgotten again. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a heart full of love, Lola may be your perfect match. 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.comMarch 11, 2026, 1:28 pm
