Tater Tot

Fill out an adoption form

TaterTot is a silly handsome boy with a gorgeous fluffy black coat splashed with just the right amount of white.

He is one of five pups that were born into rescue after their mama, Tres Leches, was found pregnant.

Tater Tot is such a cutie that loves the outdoors and finding stick to chew on. sometimes, he will even fall asleep right under the trees!

This black beauty seems a people pup, but also loves his adult foster siblings.
He is the most respectful but, at times, may not have alot of patience for his littermates shenanigans.

TaterTot loves toys and is learning to share with his pup friends and siblings. He loves to be near his person but is a patient puppy and not in your face for attention. He also crates well.

He will mostly likely be a large baby about 60-70 pounds and will do well with any family all in to help him grow into a well socialized adult!

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.
