Labrador Retriever puppies and dogs in Bristol, Connecticut

*SNUGGLE ALERT!*  Bristol, a vibrant ~2 year old terrier/lab mix, is a bundle of love and energy waiting to enrich your life! This sweet 45-pound spayed female adores people, children, and snuggles, making her the perfect companion for an active family or individual. She is very friendly and loves other dogs! She also does well with dog savvy cats.  Bristol thrives on human interaction and loves being close to her people. Due to her exuberant nature, we recommend older kids 8+ or dog-savvy kiddos (she means no harm and does not have a mean bone in her body, however she may unintentionally knock over a small child).  Bristol walks well on leash and is doggie door trained. She is a quick learner, eager to please, and loves belly rubs and showering her family with kisses! A fenced-in yard would be her dream come true, where she can unleash her signature "zoomies" and adorable "tippy-toes" running style.  Apply to meet this sweet, special girl today!  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! ##2073770##

APPLY FOR FRANKIE Alright, folks, strap on your seatbelts and prepare for a tail-wagging rollercoaster! I'm Frankie, back for round two—I'm like a sequel that actually improves on the original! And let me tell you, I’m a dazzling combo of Australian Shepherd and Labrador Retriever—basically a four-legged blend of awesome that would put Brad Pitt to shame in the park! Born on November 4th, weighing in at 17.5 lbs (I’ll be a medium sized doggo when I grow up) I’m basically the dog version of a star on the rise. Oh, and I come fully equipped: vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped—think of it as my doggy insurance policy!  Now, let's discuss my personality. I’m like a fluffy Energizer Bunny that just discovered espresso! I’m packed with more enthusiasm than a kid on Christmas morning, so my ideal family better be ready for some serious activity. If you’re into hiking, running, or even just spontaneously sprinting around like you’ve lost your mind—well, we’ll get along better than a dog and a mailbox! Exercise is my love language, and trust me, I have enough fluffy energy to power a small village! But wait, I’m also the ultimate cuddle monster—I'll dish out snuggles you didn’t even know you were missing in your life! Now, I'm diving headfirst into my exciting quest to *love* my crate. Think of it as my private spa retreat, without the mud baths (for now). I’m also a super eager learner with a mind as sharp as my little puppy teeth—ouch! I would thrive in puppy classes, where I can dazzle everyone with my skills and, let’s be honest, score a mountain of treats. And agility classes? Don’t even get me started! Imagine me zipping through tunnels and soaring over jumps like a fluffy flying squirrel—if squirrels could fly, that is. I can already hear the crowd—.*woof woof woof*!* When it comes to my ideal living situation, I’m dreaming of a home complete with a fellow energetic dog ready for some epic play battles. Think of it: races in the backyard, tug-of-war championships, and an all-out bark-fest. And kids? If you’ve got little humans, I’ll be their furry sidekick, bringing a whirlwind of laughter and chaos—good luck keeping up with us! And did I mention I have a soft spot for cats? True, they might consider me a bit "over the top," but all I want is to be friends! I promise I won’t chase them…*too much*. If your feline friend is dog-savvy, we might just create a purr-fectly chaotic family. Otherwise, let's keep the kitty away, 'cause I don’t want to give them a heart attack with my “big puppy energy”—we dogs can be a lot to handle! I’m on the hunt for my forever family! I have a truckload of love to share! I guarantee to fill your days with tail wags, cuddles, silliness, and enough laughs to make your sides hurt. So, what do you say? Are you ready to roll out the red carpet for a furry superstar like me? If so, please fill out an application for me www.astdogrescue.com/dog-application ♥   Apply for Frankie ##2298915##

Just look at this sweet face. Can you believe she was just moments away from being put to sleep. But it wasn’t her fault. Her family had moved off and abandoned her and the Tennessee shelter was just out of room and no one had chosen to adopt her. Thankfully our wonderful volunteer happened to see the social media post and immediately contacted them and saved her life. Now she is being fostered with other dogs and she is a quiet little angel. We think she was born about mid April this year and she only weighs about 35 pounds so she shouldn’t get much bigger if any at all. She is getting house trained and crate trained and is very smart. Her foster mom says she loves to snuggle. If you are interested in giving this girl her happily ever after that she deserves you will need to submit an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FFRR/Dog You can read all about our TN based rescue and how the adoption and transport process works at funnyfarmpets.org Her adoption fee is $325. She is fully vetted and will be ready to travel the first weekend of January if she has to go on transport. If she stays local to West TN where she is being fostered, she is ready to go now.

APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/ We must have an application to move forward. (Shayne's Rescue is an affiliate with PetCentralSATX). If there are problems with the website, please email me for help. Sugar is about 1 yr old (DOB 9/1/23), 21” tall at the shoulder and 33’ long from base of tail to her nose. She now weighs 51#. Her fur is soft and shiny, We think she is a Lab mix…according to the vet. She is a dog needing special care because she is 100% deaf. She gets along great in life depending on other dogs to know when they’re being called for dinner, etc. She is bright and happy and she has been taught a few hand signals for commands. The most difficult part is that you can’t depend on sound to get her attention. Here are the foster’s comments about her personality and behavior: This beautiful young female, Sugar, was a stray who showed up on my acreage in the fall of 2024. Over the course of several days, I could see that she was trying to eat the bark off my trees and was starving. Over the next few days, I put out a bowl of kibble every day. Sugar was leery of my presence and I was leery of hers but I was determined to help her, to rescue her and to find her the loving forever-home I knew she deserved. As it turns out, both of our sense of hesitation was completely unfounded and, from the first day after I contained her in my fenced yard, Sugar, my five other dogs, my husband, and I became the best of friends. Personality/Behavior: * Very gentle, very loving, very peaceful, wants to please her human * Very intelligent, intuitive, interactive and responsive * Responds well to men and women equally * Got along very well with my five other dogs from the first day I found her (male Siberian Husky, male Australian Shepherd, male Pekingese, female Rat Terrier and female French Bulldog) * Intuitively knows which of my dogs she can play with and to what degree * Submissive and respectful to other dogs and people; responds to boundaries * So far, Sugar has been an outdoor dog but I believe she will make a fabulous indoor/outdoor companion in the future * Sugar only barks when she sees a stranger, a deer coming too close the fence, etc. Sugar barks for "good reasons"; she does not bark just to bark. Because she is deaf, Sugar, generally, barks at things she can see and not hear. For example, Sugar does not bark when other dogs bark, when ambulances drive by, fireworks, etc. * Learned how to sit with me using hand signals and treats * I do not know if Sugar is potty-trained because I have not let her in the house. Sugar has never gone to the bathroom in her very large partition nor on the concrete patio. Sugar has only ever gone to the bathroom in the far side of the very large fenced grassy area along with my dogs. I suspect Sugar will learn to be potty-trained very quickly if she is not potty-trained already. * Has never jumped up on people * Very well behaved, smart and has a lot of potential for further training Best Suited For: * Active family who can take Sugar on regular walks * Someone with patience who can work with a deaf dog and who is able to train Sugar to be able to live inside * Sugar is not hyperactive nor does she have the personality traits of a working breed (eg. Siberian Husky). Sugar will thrive in an environment with average activity. This dog is CURRENTLY IN TEXAS and available for pre-adoption. Adoptions include neuter/spay, vaccinations (DHPP, Bordetella, Rabies), microchip, health certificate, transport with our professional dog transporter, and 6 mos of heart worm prevention.

If there are problems with the website, please email me for help. TOFU was a very lucky big dog that was discovered at ACS…and we could see he has a great loving personality. He gets along with other dogs without a problem. TOFU is 66# and DOB is 12/1/23. We consider him a Lab/Hound mix. He is happy and loves people (see picture). He is a bit over rambunctious with cats but just wanting to play. He does need training but that’s the fun part of having a dog. Please be his forever home… Give him a second chance. He’ll be great with a family who wants a dog to go with them to the lake, taking hikes, mountain trails, etc. Check our YouTube Video: https://youtu.be/Ari7Yl6-23g This dog is CURRENTLY IN TEXAS and available for pre-adoption.
