Princess Pea

Fill out an adoption form

True to her name, Princess is prim and proper, she is a real lady who is an absolute sweetheart with a big unique personality. She is one of the most photogenic dogs you will ever meet as you can see from the photos here!!!

Her weaknesses are sun spots, food, and being clumsy when excited (which is kind of cute). As much as she loves her food, she’s not overly protective of it so no need to worry about that.  She is housebroken and crate trained. She sleeps fine in her crate, but she would much rather cuddle under the covers in bed. 

Princess isn’t a fan of late nights. She gets grumbly if kept up past midnight. (She gives good sigh and side eye). She is good at expressing how she feels by smiling when she’s happy or purring (it really does sound like she’s purring).

Princess has not been dog tested as yet however we will be doing that shortly in case if you have other animals in your home or if you will have some visiting your home.

She appears to love all humans but she would do best with bigger ones because she gets excited and sometimes doesn’t know her own strength. When she is excited, she likes to jump up but does follow instructions to calm down.

She loves spending time outside (and on screened in porches) but doesn’t always know her limits in the sun. Her snoot can get sunburned and will turn much pinker and she gets more black dots on her belly the more sun she gets. 

She knows some basic commands like sit and wait, but she does needs to learn some leash manners.  She is very smart and has a desire to learn.  She’s an exceptional companion and she will make the most amazing best friend for the right person.
While we don’t require fenced in yards for all of our dogs, Princess Pea needs to have a fenced in yard.

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.
