Meet Whirlybird, a puppy filled with sweetness, curiosity, and a dash of goofiness.

Her mellow temperament makes her a perfect companion for quiet afternoons, while her friendly nature ensures she'll be the life of any social gathering. Whirlybird is an expert cuddler, always ready to offer comfort after a long day.

Her adorable head tilt and expressive eyes speak volumes, and her unique markings add to her charm.
Whirly plays well and shares well with her canine foster siblings and her actual sibling, Thingamajig, (also up for adoption)

Like any puppy, she is working on house training. She is crate-trained and has had no accidents in the house, so with consistency and routine, she will soon be trained.

Whirlybird is more than just a pet; she's a friend waiting to share her love and loyalty. Adopt Whirlybird and let her bring a whirl of joy into your life.

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.
