FOSTERING LOCAL IN NEW ENGLAND!!!

Zoey is one of those dogs who had a rough start in life - she was rescued from a neglectful home where she tied up outside all the time, 24-7, 12 months a year, heat and cold - when rescued she had an embedded collar in her neck which took months to heal.

You’d think that type of treatment would have a long-lasting effect on a dog’s behavior but nope, not this girl - she’s as loving and sweet as any other dog.

At some point, Zoey suffered an injury to the roof of her mouth and teeth - we are not 100% clear on this issue but have had it examined by dental specialists in Memphis - she has a very large cleft of her palate that has to this point caused her zero issues - no infections, no sneezing, no sinus issues. Repair may become necessary in the future for Zoey however at this point in time we have elected to leave the defect as is - when (and if) repair becomes necessary Paws New England will accept responsibility even after adoption for the costs for repair. The evaluation report is available for potential adopters to review.

Sweet Zoey Zip is so deserving of an amazing home! If you have it in your heart to give this girl the love she deserves, apply today!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Interested in a specific dog, please fill out an application if you are interested in a dog. The number of individual inquiries is overwhelming and we are finding it difficult to respond to each one. We cannot guarantee you will receive a timely response.

Paws New England is a rescue, not a shelter, and as such we do not have our dogs housed in one location - they are in foster homes both in New England and in our southern foster homes.   If you’re interested in a specific dog, please complete a short online application and you will receive a reply within 48 hours so you can ask questions.

At present, if a dog is listed on our website, the dog is considered still available HOWEVER, may have applications that have come in before yours but it’s still too early to know if any are a good match; therefore we encourage you to apply.

NOTICE WITH REGARD TO LOCATION OF DOGS:  Please note: Paws New England is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a brick and mortar building to house the dogs we rescue. We have found that dogs in foster homes are much more adoptable because they have been observed in a home setting. Dogs listed with Paws New England typically reside in various locations throughout the south (primarily Tennessee, Texas, and Arkansas) and New England (not necessarily in the state of Rhode Island). You will be notified by the adoption coordinator of the location of the dog you are interested in so you have the ability to decide whether to pursue adoption or not.

Dogs transported to New England are done so at a fee of $150.00 paid directly to the transporting company by Paws New England; no additional transport costs are responsibility of adopter. This fee is included in the adoption donation.

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 dog will help others in need.

All known information about the animal is listed above. We do our best to give accurate information, but most of our dogs are rescues and do not come with a known history.

Paws New England abides by the dog importation regulations set forth in the states of MA, CT, NH and RI.
