Meet Bragg, the ultimate companion for an active and loving home!

Bragg is a handsome boy with a sweet and gentle nature that wins hearts wherever he goes.
This eager-to-please pup is incredibly obedient and well-mannered, making him a joy to have around.

Bragg has lots of energy for outdoor adventures and playtime but also loves nothing more than curling up for some quality cuddle time with his favorite person.

This guy gets along wonderfully with other dogs. He thrives in an active household—whether it’s a family that enjoys hiking and outdoor fun or an individual who loves exploring nature. He enjoys fetching tennis balls in the backyard, chewing on a stick in the sun, and his daily walks around the neighborhood. He’s working on his frisbee skills too.

Bragg has quickly shown his intelligence: he learned his name in just two days and mastered going potty outside by day three! While he is still learning not to pull on the leash toward other dogs and squirrels, he is getting better every day.

He is comfortable in his crate at night, and he will rest in his crate during the day voluntarily. Bragg has been left alone for short periods without causing any trouble, and he does not show signs of separation anxiety. And while he’s a little nervous at first in the car he settles down quickly.

If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and affectionate dog who will thrive in an active environment, Bragg might be the perfect match to complete your family.

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.
