Story
CHARLESTON IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN. CHARLESTON WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE HE IS ADOPTED!    This hunk is Charleston. He is a four year old Bulldog mix. He is the sweetest fun loving goofball. He is a big boy who loves attention. He wants you to pet him, and he wants to lean into you with his whole body. He does not meet a stranger in a person or dog. He loves playing in the backyard with his toys, and then lounging on the porch sunbathing. He gets excited to go anywhere. He will run to the door and wait for you to let him out- then he jumps right in the car. This adorable boy has the most stunning eyes. We believe Charleston has some hearing loss. He seems to hear some pitches, but either doesn’t hear the others or ignores them. He does good walking on a leash, is kennel trained, and house trained. He loves greatly- he will become your shadow. If he wants your attention he will whine/talk to you to let you know. Charleston is a big boy with still a lot of puppy energy so a home with older children would be best. This guy is amazing, and deserves the perfect forever home! He is fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped.  His adoption fee of $500 includes the transport to CT.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Charleston up north to his new family.   If you have any questions, please email us at:   newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com You can apply to adopt Charleston  here: www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 1:30 pm

Story
**This dog will NOT be attending the event due to her not liking other dogs. If interested in meeting TayTay, please apply via Dog Days or www.brasscityrescue.org Meet Taylor, a playful girl looking for her forever home! She was abandoned in a crate outside of our shelter in March 2024. She was emaciated and in rough shape. She's got a healthy appetite and we were able to easily put weight on her and build an immediate repore with her. This cute and curious chick is a people pleaser who loves to be around her human friends. She is full of energy and always ready for an adventure. With her intelligence and playful personality, Taylor will make the perfect companion for someone who enjoys long walks or runs in the park. She loves to explore and would be an ideal fit for an active household. Taylor is looking for a home with no other pets and no young children. As a curious and playful gal, she can get easily distracted by other animals and may need correction to keep it moving on walks. It's kind of like seeing a squirrel!! She loves spending her days playing with her favorite toys and is very independent. Taylor appreciates long walks, and cuddling. She loves to roll in the dirt and grass but doesn't fight bath time too much. She has a prescription diet for her allergies and gets a benedryl as needed. She's been waiting so long for a home and it's been emotionally taxing on her but she's resilient. Are you her looking for a diamond in the rough? She's it. Apply to adopt her at www.brasscityrescue.org

In his kennel, Bongo is a bit sad looking, but once he is out with us, he is a really happy and doofy boy! He is a large dog weighing about 80 lbs. Bongo loves to get attention and get butt scratches. He is middle aged and has some older dog lumps and bumps on him. He is a nice dog who would love to have a home with a family to love up on him! Bongo has shown he is friendly with other dogs and he is playful with them if they are friendly towards him. He can go to a home with children 12 years old and older.

Story
Hardy is an absolute gem of a puppy! He loves to play, he's super smart, and he earns all As in the Very Good Boy department! He is going to make a fantastic addition to his new home. Hardy 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. Visit our website to see our weekend Events here! Pups with the designated “meet me” next to their names are in CT and ready to attend adoption events. Please check with your adoption coordinator if you are interested in a specific dog prior to coming to an event, as a dog's availability to attend can change at any time. We can not guarantee approval on site at the events, so we recommend applying ahead of time. You can apply at the event, but the application process may not be able to be completed the same day. If you are not pre-approved, you are still welcome to come and meet pup’s at the event! The adoption fee is $600 which includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, and the mandatory CT HB 5368 fee. 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. 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 an automatically generated confirmation email. 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! If you have not heard from one of our volunteers within 5 days of submitting your application, please email mollibo@gmail.com.

Jelly Roll is a sweet, friendly pup! He loves to play, gets along well with other dogs, and he is loads of fun. This Very Good Boy can't want to be the newest, snuggliest member of his new family.

Story
Meet our local celebrity, Dora the Explorer! Dora is around 3 years old and she weighs around 58 lbs. Dora was spotted for over 1 year traveling a wide area and numerous concerned citizens became concerned that Dora had lost her way and her family. A group of volunteers made it their mission to rescue Dora. After being caught it was evident that at some point she had a family that loved her because she knew many commands and was proving to be a very intelligent girl. Dora is very playful. She bonds to her humans very quickly and would just love to be a couch potato when she is not out in the yard entertaining herself or having fun playing fetch. Her foster family has several older dogs and Dora seems fine with them, however, Dora would do great as well, as a single dog family because she loves her people! Any questions about her can be answered by her foster mom and we can put you in touch with her. Dora is ready to travel when the perfect home is found for her.
