Bean-Local

Fill out an adoption form

Bean is now fostering in New England!

Bean is a total sweetheart and an energetic outgoing baby with a TON of personality. He loves people! His mom is a brindle pittie, but it appears that dad was perhaps a lab mix – Bean is stout but has lab facial features.

Bean is still learning all the skills needed to be the Best Boy he can be (as are all pups his age). He should definitely respond well to formal obedience training. He’s still working on paying attention while on the leash. He’s so excited about every little thing on the walk, he can forget to pay attention! He is house and crate trained (for the most part).

Like all 6 month old pups, Bean has lots of energy for training and play. Once he’s worn out, he is an excellent cuddler and snuggle buddy! Bean is neutered, up to date on all the vaccines he can have at this point, and heartworm negative!

Bean does very well with the other dog in the home and loves to play in the backyard.

He will be a great dog for any active family, single adult or couple…..ideally, getting attention and love during the day since he loves being with his humans.

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.
