Heartwarming Adoption Opportunity: Meet Gaia, a Sweet Texarkana Princess!

Gaia’s journey began in a cardboard box, nestled among the trees of a Texarkana park, where she and her littermates were discovered by a kind soul. Despite their uncertain start, Gaia and her siblings have thrived under the care of compassionate volunteers, each one a testament to resilience and the power of love.

Personality: Among her littermates, Gaia stands out as the quiet observer, her gentle spirit a calming presence in even the most chaotic moments. At just 8 weeks old, she carries herself with a quiet grace, preferring to watch the world with wide, curious eyes before venturing forth. Gaia’s tender nature makes her an ideal companion for those seeking a gentle soul to share their days with. But don’t get completely complacent! She’s still got a whole lot of puppy energy and will need more socialization and standard training (as all puppies do!).

With her soft, tan and white coat and soulful eyes, Gaia embodies pure puppy perfection. Her floppy ears and endearing gaze tug at the heartstrings, inviting cuddles and companionship from anyone lucky enough to cross her path. Gaia is in the process of getting up-to-date on all vaccinations. Once she has all her puppy shots, she will be ready to embark on a new chapter of her life with a loving forever family by her side.

Gaia dreams of a forever home filled with warmth and love. Whether you’re a seasoned pet owner or a first-time adopter, Gaia promises to bring endless joy and companionship to your life. Her tranquil demeanor makes her a perfect fit for individuals or families seeking a furry friend to share their quiet moments with after a full day of exploring all the new experiences New England has to offer this girl.

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.
