Felix - LOCAL
Age: Baby
Gender: Male
Breeds: Crossbreed
FOSTER MOM UPDATE!
Felix is a fun loving puppy who is ready to steal your heart! He just arrived to New England from Tennessee and is adjusting well to city life. He is extremely smart and trainable. Felix will need continued obedience training but is house and crate trained. His temperament is pretty chill for a puppy and his energy level is moderate.
He could do well in the city or a more suburban setting. He loves other dogs and people but he would be fine as an only dog too.
Just give him some ear scratches and treats and you’ll have a new best friend!
Felix is fostering right here in New England and just waiting for his perfect adopter. There are some super amazing qualities that describe this fella including confident, curious, and motivated, but also VERY chill.
This sweet boy looooves to be loved on but his true passion is exploring……..getting lots of sniffs around the yard or out on walks will be really good for this guy.
Felix also has another great quality-smarts!! He already know his sit command and is progressing with his leash skills.
Can you imagine making Felix a member of your family? He is “Young and Carefree”–and he will change your life for the better!

ATTENTION PUPPY ADOPTERS: You will be required to attend training/behavior classes with your new dog unless you are experienced dog owners and your adoption coordinator is comfortable with your experience. This requirement is for the benefit of you and your puppy so if you experience behavior issues you have a point of contact.
PLEASE - Think long and hard before adopting a puppy - consider the lifestyle change this puppy will come with - he cannot be crated for more than 3-4 hours at a time until he’s older, puppy proofing your home will be necessary, puppies scratch and nip so if you have small children, can they handle this?? Training will be so important in this puppy’s life, do you have the time??
Please consider purchasing this book before adopting. Perfect Puppy in 7 Days - How to Start Your Puppy Off Right, Sophia Yin, DVM - it is an amazing book that we recommend very highly and have had amazing feedback on.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION -
Paws New England is a foster-based rescue - our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south and New England.
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 newly adopted dog will help others in need.
