Eugene

Fill out an adoption form

Meet Eugene, a brave boy on the road to recovery! Rescued from a rural shelter near New Albany, Mississippi, Eugene found himself in a tough spot—sitting in the shelter for an extended time with his euthanization date fast approaching. Thankfully, a kind-hearted friend reached out, and after seeing his photos, we couldn’t say no.

Eugene is currently in foster care, healing from old and new wounds. He has a deformity on his right front paw, the cause of which is still a mystery—either an old injury or a hereditary condition, but he does walk normally. Despite his challenges, Eugene is a resilient soul.

This sweet boy is understandably scared, especially around men, but his dedicated foster is already working with him to build his confidence. With patience and love, Eugene will blossom into the wonderful companion he was always meant to be.

If you’re interested in giving Eugene a loving home, please feel free to apply now.

We’re looking for someone who understands that healing takes time and will be patient as he grows. Thank you for considering this special boy!

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.
