My name is Rizzy - LOCAL DOG!

Meet Rizzy, an energetic and loving pit mix who's ready to find her forever home! This sweet, high-energy pup is always on the go, whether she's playing, learning new tricks, or just enjoying time with her favorite humans. She’s incredibly eager to please and absolutely thrives on positive reinforcement—treats are her love language!

Not only is Rizzy a quick learner, and is eager to make friends with other dogs but can often be a bit high energy for them and a rough player. For this reason, a meet and greet is required. We are also asking for breed experience. She’s house trained and working on her crate manners (crates aren’t her favorite!)

If you're looking for a dog who loves people, loves to learn, and has boundless energy, Rizzy might be your perfect match!

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.

Paws New England abides by the dog importation regulations set forth in the states of MA, CT, NH and RI.
