Story
This is Ruthie May, an Australian Cattle Dog mix born in Arkansas. This sweet-natured girl loves her humans like no other and will suit well in a home where she can get unconditional love and affection. Over the past 4 years with Ruthie May we have learned that she is her best self when surrounded by humans. She will quickly come to you and grab your hands for pets and her favorite, belly rubs. Ruthie needs to be in an only dog household as she gets anxious around other dogs. My husband and I’s financial situation has changed and unfortunately we can no longer take care of her in the capacity that she deserves. She truly is the sweetest dog and we are so sad to be considering rehoming her. If you love a sweet natured and affectionate dog who both loves to play and cuddle on the couch, Ruthie May is your girl.

Story
Betty Lou — The Whoville Wonder with Big Explorer EnergyBetty Lou is bold, curious, and adventure-ready — the kind of pup who walks into a new space like she owns it, tail held high, eyes bright, and heart open. She plays beautifully with other dogs, reads the room like a social pro, and greets humans with a confident, “You’re my people now” energy.Betty Lou is part of the unforgettable Whoville Litter, a sibling group of five found just outside of Memphis. They emerged from the woods late one night — little wonders wandering out of the unknown and into a rescue story that was just beginning. The kindest man scooped them all inside, gave them warmth, and reached out to a PAWS New England volunteer, because he knew their lives deserved a brighter start.At around 4 months old, Betty Lou is healthy, happy, and ready for her next chapter. She’s already: • Great with other dogs • Smart and food-motivated • Making progress in crate training • Full of personality, confidence, and charmShe’ll thrive in a home that loves movement, laughter, and shared experiences. If you want a dog who brings excitement into everyday life, keeps you on your toes (in the cutest way), and makes every outing feel like an adventure — she’s your girl.Name: Betty LouBreed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler/HoundSex: FemaleAge: 16 weeks, as of 12/28/25                                                                                                             Weight: 24lbs ,as of 12/28/25                                                                                                             Spayed/Neutered: Too young - Spay/Neuter Contract will be required and strictly enforced.Vaccinations: Puppy vaccines will be up to date.

Story
Maxine is the heart of the Whoville litter — playful, affectionate, and beautifully observant. At around 4 months old, she’s thriving in foster care and showing us more of her gentle, intentional personality every day.She loves romping and playing with her siblings, but what she craves most is one-on-one time with her human. Maxine adores being held and cuddled like a baby — belly-up snuggles, soft conversations, and dramatic shoulder sighs included. She’s the kind of pup who bonds deeply, listens closely, and happily follows her person from room to room just to stay connected.This little family didn’t arrive by sleigh from Whoville, but they did come from right outside of Memphis, Tennessee. Late one night, all five puppies wandered out of the woods and into the care of the kindest man, who brought them inside, gave them warmth, and reached out to PAWS New England volunteers to help change their story.Now safe, adored, and foster-loved, Maxine is ready for her own forever home.Ideal Home: • Values meaningful connection and bonding • Enjoys snuggles, playtime, and gentle affection • Doesn’t mind a sweet little shadow by their side • Has room in their heart for a loyal, loving companion.Maxine is more than ready — she’s meant for someone who will adore her as much as she adores them.

Story
Cindy Lou is a gentle little soul wrapped in quiet bravery and effortless charm. At around 16 weeks old, she’s already showing off big-dog potential in a tiny-pup package.She’s crate trained, settles easily, and treats bedtime like a cozy ritual — one little circle, a fluff of her dog bed, and she’s out like a light.In her foster home, Cindy Lou thrives in good company. She does great with the 6 foster dog siblings she lives with, matching their energy when it’s playtime and soaking up their calm when it’s time to settle. She loves being part of the moment and happily lets her little human foster lay beside her, run in the yard, and join in daily adventures. She’s naturally kid-friendly, social, and easy to handle.Cindy Lou is already a confident traveler — she loads up in the truck on her own and will slowly take a seat on the console, curling in like the world was built for cruising. She adores car rides and settles easily for every mile, whether it’s a quick trip or a long haul down the road.Cats? Completely uninteresting. She couldn’t care less about them. Horses and cows are still a little intimidating and admittedly scary, but she’s learning that big farm friends don’t have to be so frightening when observed from a safe distance.She’ll thrive in a patient, nurturing home that loves peaceful routines and gentle connection. She’s sweet, observant, and brings a grounding calm wherever she lands.Videos:https://youtube.com/shorts/uqUCEDLkKTc?feature=share https://youtube.com/shorts/ersJ7vm5N2Q?feature=share https://youtube.com/shorts/QE3gIdqNF3c?feature=shareName: Cindy LouBreed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler/HoundSex: FemaleAge: 16 weeks, as of 12/28/25Weight: 25lbs , as of 12/28/25Spayed/Neutered: Too young - Spay/Neuter Contract will be required and strictly enforced.Vaccinations: Puppy vaccines will be up to date.

He has blended into family life beautifully and enjoys being part of the everyday flow — calm mornings, laid-back evenings, and all the little moments in between.Like any 4-month-old pup, Groopert enjoys playtime, but what sets him apart is his impressive house manners and gentle confidence. He loves exploring new spaces with curiosity, but he’s also perfectly content to observe the world quietly from his favorite spot beside his people.Groopert is crate trained, walks well on a lead, and already carries himself like a pup who understands the comfort and structure of home.
