Pierogi

Fill out an adoption form

Meet Pierogi, an irresistible little heart-stealer with short legs, big confidence, and a personality as delightful as the comfort food he’s named after.
Like a perfect pierogi, he’s small, hearty, and guaranteed to make you smile. He may be a funny low-rider, but don’t let those short legs fool you—this pup is packed with joyful energy and an adventurous spirit.

Pierogi came from a litter at a shelter in Alabama, and he’s been charming everyone he meets ever since.

He absolutely adores kids and is gentle, playful, and affectionate with his people. He’s a smart boy who’s eager to learn and truly wants to please. When introduced to a cat, he did wonderfully—respectful, curious, and polite. Confident without being bossy, Pierogi strikes that perfect balance of fun and easygoing.

Crate trained and making great progress with housetraining, this silly, loving boy will keep you laughing, happily follow you from room to room, and grow into a loyal companion who believes every day should feel warm, comforting, and a little extra special.

If you’re looking for a family-friendly pup with a lot of heart and just the right amount of flavor, Pierogi is ready to serve up a lifetime of love in his forever home. .

The adoption fee also includes the transport fee when applicable

ATTENTION PUPPY ADOPTERS:  You must attend training/behavior classes with your new dog unless you are an experienced dog owner 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 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 crucial in this puppy's life. Do you have the time?

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.
