Jesse

Fill out an adoption form

Meet Jesse, a happy-go-lucky Border Collie mix puppy who is always ready for his next adventure! With his bright smile, playful personality, and endless enthusiasm for life, Jesse brings joy wherever he goes.

This handsome boy was found abandoned along a road in Mississippi and thankfully rescued by a kind-hearted Good Samaritan. Now safe in foster care, Jesse is thriving.

Like many Border Collie mixes, Jesse is smart, energetic, and happiest when he has something to do. He loves to run, play, explore, and interact with everyone around him. Jesse gets along wonderfully with the other dogs in his foster home and would happily spend all day playing with canine friends. He occasionally shows off his herding instincts by trying to round up his dog buddies with a playful nip at their heels.

Jesse is friendly with people of all ages, though his puppy enthusiasm may be a bit much for very young children. He would likely do best in a home with kids ages 5 and up who can enjoy his playful spirit.

This clever pup is doing great with both house training and crate training. He rides well in the car, whether relaxing in the back seat or traveling in a crate, and is currently working on improving his leash manners.

Jesse is looking for an active family that understands the needs of a young working-breed mix. A home with another playful dog, a family that enjoys hiking and outdoor adventures, or active children to play with would be ideal.
With the right combination of exercise, training, and enrichment, Jesse will grow into a loyal, fun-loving companion who is always ready to make you smile.

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 your benefit and your puppy's, so if you experience behavioral 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 veterinary 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.
