Meet the James St. Litter!
Harry J, Della J, Ella J, Leona J, Moxie J, Vickie J, and Tori J.
Everyone of them a sweet adorable cuddly puppy!!
These babies were abandoned in a backyard in the terrible Texas heat with no food or water before being rescued. Thank goodness none are showing any health issues and all have healthy appetites.
The pups are working house training and do well crated together. This litter had a whole community caring for them prior to being placed in foster homes, so they all have social personalities.
Hello Vicki….. she likes to “voice” her opinion!!!
Her foster mom says she is learning commands already and knows “Come”, as it is followed by treats!!!
Vickie is adorable, fun, and a busy ball of energy. She is getting a lot of time with her foster family and foster siblings—and she has so much personality! She has a bit of an attitude and will tell you when she isn’t getting her way. She would not do well in a home with a bossy canine.
This girl catches on to new things quickly, loves to play with toys, and is learning to walk on a leash. She gets several long walks each day followed by naps. She is taken outside to relieve after naps, etc. and is pretty much house trained. She sleeps all night in a crate with her sibling.
Has been to dog friendly stores and done very well.
Vickie loves to interact with her large canine foster siblings large dogs. She loves the local cat, but she wants to play a little rougher than the cat does.
This gal needs exercise and mental stimulation and be kept busy with lots of toys and safe things to chew on, and she needs supervision unless in a crate or an enclosure that is puppy-proof.
Her new family definitely will need enough time to invest in her continued training and keep her socialized, to help her become her best doggie self.

The adoption fee also includes the transport fee.
ATTENTION PUPPY ADOPTERS: You must 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.
