Story
This is "Jasper", a 5 month old German Shepherd. He is 1 of 4 puppies Connecticut born on August 6, 2024. Jasper came to us with his 2 brothers and 1 sister, "Jessie", "Woody" and "Maple". We are happy to say that Jessie, Woody and Maple have all been adopted! We are sad to say that Jasper is now all by himself without his 2 brothers and his sister. Jasper is now waiting and hoping he will be as lucky as his brothers and sister to find a good home and a fun and loving family to be with. Jasper is very cute. Oh did he love playing with his brothers and sister! They would run and run playing and chasing each other. They sure had a lot of fun and they were fun to watch! We are looking for Jasper's owner to be someone who does not work full time; a couple of hours a day would be okay. Jasper needs some help and someone's patience with "potty training". That is why we would like someone to be home with Jasper. Also, in Jasper's new home, children must be 10 years old or older. You must own your own home. No condos. No apartments. Jasper got neutered and his shots are up to date. To adopt from us, you MUST have a veterinarian reference in your own name. We will not place any animal without a veterinarian reference. We get a veterinarian reference from your veterinarian which is a history of medical care administered by your veterinarian to your present or previous pet or pets. Please do not contact us if you cannot abide by our adoption rules. The adoption fee for Jasper is $300.00 which includes his neutering and shots. No credit cards. If you are interested in Jasper, please email us at feline55keeper@gmail.com. You can meet Jasper on Saturday at Petco located at 201 Union Street in Waterbury during our adoption hours from 12:00 to 3:00. His tail will be wagging waiting for you! IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE STRESS THAT IN ORDER TO ADOPT FROM US, YOU MUST HAVE A VETERINARIAN REFERENCE...NO EXCEPTIONS!

Cue the drumroll, please... We're rolling out the sparkly red carpet to welcome back our fur-tastic friend, Charlie! Charlie’s been on a whirlwind adventure—a plot twist in the story of life brought him back to us, but hey, it wasn’t his doing. So, without further ado, let’s reintroduce the one, the only, Charlie!   Born on April 21, 2022, this dashing German Shepherd/Husky mix is ready to rocket into fun! With boundless energy and a heart that could melt the iciest of hearts, he’s the perfect partner for a game of fetch. Once he’s zoomed around and conquered the backyard, he morphs into the ultimate cuddle champion, ready for some snuggle shenanigans!   Charlie’s dream pad is a lively, fun-filled home where he can unleash his wild side. He’s best as the solo canine star or with a fellow furry dynamo who can match his high-octane antics. While he’s great with kids, he hasn't mingled with the kitty crew yet, so a kitty-free home might be best for this adventurous pup.   If you’re on the hunt for a loyal, spirited sidekick who’ll keep you on your toes and sprinkle your days with joy, Charlie might just be your perfect match!

This lovely girl is already here and looking for a place where she can lay her head down every night to rest and dream. If interested in adopting, fostering, or fostering to adopt Sadie please fill out an application here http://www.bestfriendsforlifeanimalrescue.com/ Sadie I'm thinking maybe we could rest and dream This world in not enough for me Sadie This may sound crazy but I don't always dream I just can't fall asleep without you I'm counting down the days since I've seen your smile, your face- from 'Sadie' by The Bunny The Bear. Sadie is a sweet 2 year old Shepherd mix weighing 55 lbs. She is already house and crate trained and is working on improving her leash manners. She can be a little shy at first but quickly resumes her sweet loving affectionate demeanor. She is good with other dogs. She has not been around cats so we are unsure how she would react to them. She made the road trip from a Kansas shelter to our rescue in CT quite well. Sadie is already spayed, up to date on all vaccinations, current on preventatives, and micro chipped. All she needs now is her very own forever loving family and home where the world will finally be a good place. Will you be the one who will give her a wonderful life where together you can rest and dream? Will you be the one who will always come back to Sadie?

Braelyn is a 18 week old shepherd/ husky mix, who currently weighs 18 pounds. Braelyn was surrendered to a southern rescue at one week old after her owner decided he no longer wanted to deal with newborn puppies. Now 16 weeks later, Braelyn is ready for a new home. Braelyn is more on the shy side and wants to be held. She likes to keep to herself rather than tussle with her siblings. Braelyn loves to sit in your lap and will follow you all around the house. Braelyn has done well with crate training and is working on house training. She has been around cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. She hasn’t been around young kids but due to her age and sweet temperament, her foster believes she would be fine. Braelyn is spayed, up to date on vaccines, current on preventatives, and microchipped.

Story
Meet Lulu, a super sweet 2 year old spayed female shepherd mix, weighing about 46 lbs! Lulu can be a little shy when she first meets new people, but she warms up quickly once she knows she is safe. Once you've earned her trust, she is a total love and is full of joy! Lulu is great with other dogs (she has been fostered in TN with 7 other dogs), people, and kids. She has not been cat tested, so we are unsure how she would do with cats. Lulu is medically up to date, housebroken, and crate trained. A 100% good doggo! Apply to meet this sweet girl today!  Click HERE for Adoption Application! 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! ##2265333##

Story
Bosco loves affection, loves to play ball and take walks. He is good with other dogs and in his foster home he sees cats and will watch them sometimes but does not bother them. He's not been around young children in his current foster home so it is unknown how he would act with them but he's so far been friendly to everyone he's met, even in high-stress situations such as a crowded vet's office full of people and dogs of all sizes. Bosco is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. All dogs 6 month + receive a Proheart 6 injection at the time of their heartworm test. This provides heartworm prevention for 6 months from the time of that injection. This dog has tested positive for heartworms but has been treated and will soon be ready for his new home. The adoption fee is $450 if your adoption is prepaid and final prior to your dog's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on dogs that are picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368. WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON? Check the Events tab on cprdogs.com for all weekend adoption event info. The majority of the dogs marked as 'meet me' will be there to see you! If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05. TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get a confirmation. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in spam or bouncing back. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will then be in touch to answer your questions about this pup, discuss the adoption process and get the ball rolling!

Story
Beckett is a 4 month nugget, adorable little mixed breed puppy and we think he is so cute we can hardly stand it! He is well socialized, friendly, loves to play with his dog friends, LOVES people, and is just generally a very good time. Hobbies are napping, eating, finding mischief, and stealing kisses! Waiting for his forever home This puppy Is spayed/neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, treated for all of the intestinal parasites, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. Because intestinal parasites are cyclical, your puppy may need additional treatment once you get him/her home. This is common and nothing to be alarmed about. Puppies and dogs need to be treated periodically for parasites throughout their entire lives. The adoption fee is $550 if your adoption is prepaid prior to your pup's arrival. An additional $50 will be charged on puppies that are picked up from our Southbury CT adoption center, adopted at an event, or foster home. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with CT HB 5368. WANT TO MEET OUR DOGS IN PERSON? Check the Events tab on cprdogs.com for all weekend adoption event info. The majority of the dogs marked as 'meet me' will be there to see you! More and more of our adopters are having fun with DNA tests on their pups. You might ask yourself why our breed guess is varying degrees of difference from the DNA tests. Most of our puppies are rescued from high kill shelters or other abandonment situations and we have no info on parents. When we rescue puppies that have no background info, we make our very best educated guess as to breed mix and age. Our guesstimate comes from years and years and years of animal welfare work and training, but our guesses won't always agree with your vet, your neighbor, your DNA test, etc. The most important thing to know about your puppy's breed mix is that most likely he/she is a Super Lovable Mutt made of many many many different breeds. If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at the Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm.

Story
Hello there! I'm Rowan, and I'm delighted to introduce myself. I'm a lovely 5-month-old Dutch Shepherd mix with a zest for life and lots of love to give. I've received all my age-appropriate vaccines, so my health is in tip-top shape, and I'm microchipped for extra safety and peace of mind!   Let me tell you a bit about my personality. I'm an active and incredibly smart gal who thrives on learning new things. Whether it's a new trick or a fun game, I'm always eager to engage and explore. What I'm really dreaming of is an active family that will dedicate time to training me. With their help and guidance, I know I can grow up to be the best girl ever! I absolutely adore mental stimulation games—they're such a fun way to challenge my brain and keep me entertained.   Socializing is another thing I really enjoy. I get along nicely with dogs, kids, and cats. However, I do appreciate slow introductions, as it helps me feel comfortable and set up for success with my new friends. Building strong, positive relationships is important to me!   In a nutshell, I'm searching for a loving family that will embrace my energetic spirit, nurture my intelligence, and provide me with plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. I can't wait to find my perfect match and start our adventure together!   Apply for Rowan ##2281706##
