Alicia Keyes

Fill out an adoption form

Alicia is a sweet and funny little dog that needs someone special to adopt her.

She and her litter mates were from a feral litter. They were not socialized with people or other dogs for the first few months of their lives. So Alicia is a very shy and timid dog at first. It takes a long time for her to trust and open up to people. She will need someone who is extremely patient and understanding of this.

Alicia does EXCELLENT with other dogs. She will open up to other dogs before people. A confident and social dog will help her open up and thus one is required in her new home.

Alicia is crate trained. She never has accidents in her crate and never makes a peep in there. She is not a barker.

She is a sweet and rewarding dog for the right person.

Some requirements for Alicia’s adoptive home:
~ She must have another confident and social dog in the home.
~ She needs an experienced dog owner. She is not a dog for the first time dog owner.
~ She needs someone who is patient and is willing to give her time and space and adjust to a
new environment.

If you think you can provide Alicia with all of these things then we would love to hear from you! She will make a wonderful dog for the right person.

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.
