This very handsome boy is Cameron.

Cameron spent his life outside on a chain until he was rescued by our southern rescue.

Cameron is currently residing in a foster home with several dogs of varying sizes, breed and temperaments and he is doing amazing with integrating into the pack. He also takes cues well from his pack if he gets a bit too exuberant with them.

Cameron has acclimated well to a crate. He is quiet and patient in it when left at home and also sleeps all night without issue. He has been doing very well with housetraining. He is learning how to walk on a leash, still pulls a bit, but that is improving as his training is continued.

Cameron did test positive for heartworm and has begun pre-treatment. PAWS will guide you through his treatment (and of course, foot the bill). This will require you to live somewhat near to one of our partner vets that administer the treatment.

This boy just adores affection, truly a delight. He is polite and just enjoys being in the company of dogs and his people. Cameron was exposed to cats while he was in boarding and did not react to them, but has not actually lived with a cat.
His current foster does not have children, but feels he would be fine with older children. He is a big strong active boy, so he may inadvertently knock over toddlers or smaller children.

Cameron also recently took him on an outing to the home improvement store and though he was very curious about his surroundings, he was friendly to all that interacted with him.

This gorgeous boy is now ready to learn what it means to be a valued family member.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Interested in a specific dog, please fill out an application if you are interested in a dog. The number of individual inquiries is overwhelming and we are finding it difficult to respond to each one. We cannot guarantee you will receive a timely response.

Paws New England is a rescue, not a shelter, and as such we do not have our dogs housed in one location - they are in foster homes both in New England and in our southern foster homes. If you’re interested in a specific dog, please complete a short online application and you will receive a reply within 48 hours so you can ask questions.

At present, if a dog is listed on our website, the dog is considered still available HOWEVER, may have applications that have come in before yours but it’s still too early to know if any are a good match; therefore we encourage you to apply.

NOTICE WITH REGARD TO LOCATION OF DOGS: Please note: Paws New England is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a brick and mortar building to house the dogs we rescue. We have found that dogs in foster homes are much more adoptable because they have been observed in a home setting. Dogs listed with Paws New England typically reside in various locations throughout the south (primarily Tennessee, Texas, and Arkansas) and New England (not necessarily in the state of Rhode Island). You will be notified by the adoption coordinator of the location of the dog you are interested in so you have the ability to decide whether to pursue adoption or not.

Dogs transported to New England are done so at a fee of $150.00 paid directly to the transporting company by Paws New England; no additional transport costs are responsibility of adopter. This fee is included in the adoption donation.

Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England if necessary.

Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher. We appreciate your understanding that your dog will help others in need.

All known information about the animal is listed above. We do our best to give accurate information, but most of our dogs are rescues and do not come with a known history.

Paws New England abides by the dog importation regulations set forth in the states of MA, CT, NH and RI.
