Meet Our Louisiana Quartet!

Four sweet pups, about 5 months old, were found dumped in rural Louisiana with no mama in sight — a heartbreakingly common story. Thankfully, a kind rescuer stepped in. Her commercial boarding kennel has sadly become a frequent drop-off spot for abandoned animals, but she welcomed these babies with open arms and got them the care they desperately needed.

They arrived hungry, thin, and full of worms… but not anymore! After lots of love and vetting, they’re healthy, happy, and heading to New England Thanksgiving weekend.

Once they settle into their foster homes, we’ll be sharing new photos, videos, and updates about their personalities. Right now, they’re averaging 20–25 lbs and are everything you expect from puppies — goofy, playful, curious, and ready to learn.

If you’re thinking of adding a young dog to your home, remember it’s loads of fun but also lots of work: crate training, puppy chewing, consistent routines… the whole puppy package. But in return you get snuggles, silliness, and the joy of watching your new best friend grow up, knowing you changed the course of their life.

Apply today and meet your new adventure buddy!

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.
