Meet Sandy!

Sandy is a beautiful young German Shepherd mix with the perfect mix of playful energy and cuddle-bug sweetness. Found as a stray and now thriving in foster care, she’s ready for her forever home!

Sandy is great with other dogs of all sizes and has done well meeting cats — she’ll happily play if they’re friendly and politely backs off if they’re not. She loves people and is very affectionate.

Because of her excitement and energy, Sandy is best suited for a home with kids ages 10 and up. She previously had a minor bite incident with a toddler, so she needs a family who understands appropriate dog-kid boundaries.
She walks nicely on leash, rides well in the car, and is fully house-trained. Sandy is also happy in her crate and settles easily.

Sandy is still young and active, so she’s looking for an engaged family who will give her daily exercise and mental enrichment. After playtime, she’s all about the snuggles and loves curling up close to her people.
Most of all, Sandy wants a loving, active home to call her own.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - 

Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  

Adoption donations cover pre-adoption vet costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age-appropriate, 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.
