Reese is a sweet and lovable tripod who recently lost his front limb. Despite this, he’s adapted wonderfully and is ready to find his forever home.

Reese is a bit of a couch potato and a dedicated snuggle buddy. He loves lounging around and will happily keep you company on lazy days. He’s also quite the talker, often whining when he’s not getting his way – it’s his adorable way of communicating with you.

One of Reese’s favorite activities is playing with his chew toys. He has a playful side and will occasionally drop his toy off the couch and fake cry until you pick it up for him. It’s all part of his charm!

At night, Reese sleeps comfortably in his crate, but when the sun comes up, he loves to join his humans in bed. He’s a champion sleeper and can snooze until noon if you let him.

Reese is fantastic with other dogs. While he’s not overly playful, he enjoys being around them and gets along great. He’s also excellent with kids, making him a wonderful family pet.

This lovable boy also enjoys car rides and loves going out in his stroller. He’s always up for an adventure!

Reese is shy around new people. He’s come a long way but still needs slow intros and someone willing to wait for his trust.

He’s been working hard at building up strength as it was exhausting missing a front leg - it’s much harder dogs as that’s where you carry most of your weight. When he is full grown, just over 1 year, he will be fitted for a prosthesis (at our expense of course)! Until then swimming is super helpful to him to build up muscle and strength.

If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion who’s great with kids and other dogs, Reese might be the perfect addition to your family

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.
