Courtesy Post: Owner Surrender/Rehoming- Hopkinton, MA Meet Dingo! He is an 10 year old Miniature American Shepherd and weighs 18 lbs. He is neutered, microchipped, up to date on shots, and on heartworm prevention. Dingo is nervous around strangers! He hasn’t been tested around older children. No cats, dogs or younger children, due to his reactivity! Dingo nipped a dog sitter who tried to take his food away (he resource guards high value food). He also nipped a grandparent after he growled at the owner’s baby and the grandparent grabbed his collar to pull him away. Dingo had a TPLO on his left leg and some arthritis, so he is sensitive around his knees. He is currently on fluoxetine for his anxiety. Dingo is given an omega and glucosamine supplement. He is also on a course of doxycycline for a recent positive anaplasma test. The owner is surrendering him because he nipped two people. His reactivity has increased and the owner has younger children. He needs to find a new furever home as soon as possible! If you think you can provide a great home for Dingo, please contact the owner listed below. There is a $150 rehoming fee to assure good folks with good intentions. This fee will be donated to Australian Shepherds Furever for their assistance in placing Dingo. Owner’s Contact Information: Michael at mikejg23@gmail.com.

Name: Moonlight MarvaAge: 5 yrs old approxWeight: 15 lbsBackground:Meet Moonlight Marva, a resilient and joyful pup with a heart full of love! Marva was found as a stray in rural Tennessee, bravely dragging herself around despite her severe condition. After X-rays revealed severe bone infections spreading to her hips, it was clear her legs couldn't be saved. However, this courageous girl wasn’t using her legs anyway, so they were removed, and she has adapted wonderfully.Personality:Marva is a true testament to resilience. Despite her past, she’s a bundle of joy and adorable. Her cheerful disposition is contagious, and she’s always happy to be alive and surrounded by loving people.Special Care:Marva does require some assistance due to her special needs:Urinating: She needs help with urination, which involves expressing her bladder. This is a simple task, especially given her small size.Bowel Movements: While Marva can defecate on her own, she lacks control. However, maintaining a regular schedule and a high-quality diet makes this easy to manage.Why Marva is Special:Don’t let her special needs deter you. Marva is capable of doing almost everything other dogs can do; she just needs a little extra help. She’s a shining example of perseverance and will bring immense joy to any home willing to give her the love and care she deserves.Considerations:Marva’s condition requires a compassionate and dedicated owner who can commit to her care routine. In return, you’ll get a loyal and loving companion who will fill your life with joy and gratitude.Adopt Moonlight Marva:If you’re looking for a dog who embodies the spirit of overcoming adversity and can offer endless love, look no further than Moonlight Marva. Give this special girl the forever home she deserves; she’ll reward you with unconditional love and happiness.Name: Moonlight MarvaBreed: Mini Australian Shepherd / perhaps Corgi MixSex: FemaleSpayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: YesGood with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: YesLocation of dog currently: Nashville TN IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue.

Dot and Dingle were born while in rescue to a foster in Memphis, who rescued Mama and several other dogs from a hoarding situation—dogs were everywhere, running around, uncared for.Mom gave birth, and the other siblings were born without the recessive gene, causing hearing loss/deafness and reduced sight/blindness. These two pups are happy little things and won't know they are any different - they make unique 4-legged friends that will make you wonder every day how they can do what they do.What is a Double Merle:Double Merle pups are born when both of the parents are merle. It doesn't matter what color merle, how much merle the parents have, how little (or how much) white trim, what breed they are, or even that the parents are the same breed. Statistically, 25% of the pups from two merle parents will be Double Merles.The Merle gene causes pets to have multicolored coats and striking blue eyes. Having the Merle gene is great, but it becomes problematic when two dogs with that gene are paired. Birth defects in litters can happen when two dogs with this gene are bred, hence double Merle breeding.Temperament:Double merles are generally relatively healthy dogs capable of living long, otherwise everyday lives despite their deficiencies. They are no more aggressive, unpredictable, or untrainable than hearing and sighted dogs.Superb information here: https://www.lethalwhites.com/doublemerle.htmlThese babies will require some additional care and training and are a lot of fun to work with doing just that - there is a lot of support information online. You'll need prior experience if you're willing to work with them as needed.Name: Dot and Dingle (do not need to be adopted together)Breed: Australian ShepherdSex: Male (Dingle)Age: 8 weeks as of 7/17/2024Weight: 0.0Spayed/Neutered: Too young - Spay/Neuter Contract will be required and strictly enforced.Vaccinations: Puppy vaccines will be up to date.

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.

Adoption Donation  $650    Located in RI Approximately 6 months old     Weighs 6.25 pounds   I was recently surrendered because my mom was worried about my safety. My 4 year old human sister was too rough with me. I will require a home with children 13+ ONLY. My ancestors were bred to herd animals, so I can't help but chase and nip small children when they run around. I'm a sweet and cuddly puppy! I am looking for a warm lap and lots of hugs n kisses. I'm not neutered yet, but my new friends at the rescue will make me an appointment at Potter League. If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application on our website  www.fohari.org  and email my foster parent for more information:  memboo123@gmail.com Please verify the location and readiness of this dog with us.  Because we save lives from various locations through out the United States, some dogs may not be in New England yet, nor ready for immediate adoption.   Our adoption application can be found here: https://fohari.org/application/  Our Adoption Process:   Go to our website and select the animal you are interested in. ALL animals are in foster homes as we do NOT have a  shelter where you can visit. Some animals are in foster care in New England, and some are located in other states. If the initials following the animals name are a state, then that is the state where the animal is located. If initials are not a state, then those are the initials of the foster home outside of New England and you will not be able to meet the animal ahead of time. Complete our online application You will be contacted by phone or email by the foster parent  or a member of our adoption team and will have the opportunity to find out more about the animal, and ask any questions that you have to ensure the animal is a good fit for your household. If the animal is local, you can meet the animal, but you would not be able to take the dog home until you are approved to adopt. If you feel comfortable that the animal is a good fit for your home, at this point, you would submit a sum of $200 as a partial payment of the adoption fee as we process your application. From our end, we will check references and schedule a home visit. If you are not approved to adopt, any payment sent to us would be promptly returned in full. At this point, we will remove the animal from our adoption sites and hold the animal for you while we check your references. If you live in an apartment, or a condo, we will need to verify permission to own the animal from your landlord or condo board. Please let your vet’s office and references know we will be contacting them. If your  references are positive, we will schedule a home visit by a volunteer. Please try to accommodate the home visit volunteer as most  have busy schedules. Delays in the visit will result in a delay in the adoption. Once you are approved, you will receive an e-mail with your  adoption contract attached. This e-mail will have details about pick up, the balance of the adoption fee that is owed, etc. Please email your signed & witnessed contract and pay your adoption fee in full, and for any animals located out of state, you will be contacted for details about transport to New England. Once you have paid your adoption fee in full and sent back your contract, you can make arrangement to pick up your animal from the foster home or from transport depending on where the animal is located. Please bring a harness, collar, ID tag and leash when you are picking up the dog unless otherwise instructed by the foster parent. Our extensive approval process is intended to ensure the best fit between our animals and adopters.

🐾WALLACE🖤 Wallace is a loving, handsome, 1.5 year old border Collie/husky mix. He is amazing with other dogs & lives with a bunch of them! He does well with cats as long as a clear expectation is made of how he should behave. 🐱 Wallace is house trained and kennel trained, and he walks/runs well on leash! He would do well with older children as long as they are familiar with the breed & ok with potentially being herded. 🐶 This sweet boy thrives with consistency. He has a hard time adapting to change but has gotten better and will continue to improve with the right amount of training. Wallace can get very excited and just needs someone calm and consistent in these times to help him be the best boy!🖤 Is Wallace the pup you’ve been looking for?

🌼Meet Cookie Cookie is a six month old Border Collie mix. She was saved by a kind family after being hit by a car. She is fully recovered from her injuries now and is ready to find her new family. 💕 Cookie is not only beautiful but is incredibly sweet as well. She is kind and gentle and just wants to be loved. She can be a bit shy at first but quickly warms up once she meets you and will stick by her person like glue. Cookie would be a great family dog with older children or the perfect companion. Due to her breed mix she needs space to run so a fenced in yard or a home with acreage would be ideal. 🐾 If Cookie sounds like the one you have been waiting for, please submit the adoption application. Sweet Cookie deserves to be loved and spoiled for the rest of her life! 🥰
