Dog of the Year! Bubba isn't really looking to be the center of attention, he just want to be the center of someone's attention. He is a sweet and social 5 year old pit bull terrier mix who's been waiting some time to find his happily ever after. He came to PAWS from a local animal control after not being reclaimed by his owner. Bubba is always pleased to make a new acquaintance. He is quick to engage you in a game of fetch, a little tug or enjoy a little of your attention. Bubba walks well on leash, knows some basic commands and learns quickly. He would be a great partner for weekend active time, a training class or hang out and chill time. He knows how to keep himself entertained. Bubba would like to be the only pet, but is polite in the company of other animals while out and about. He is currently in a temporary foster, but would like to find his permanent digs. If interested in adopting, please file an application at www.pawsct.org. Please like and share to help Bubba find the attention he is looking for! #DogoftheYear #BubblyBubba #DogsofPawsCt #PitbullsofPawsCt #Adoptabull #Loveabull #AdoptMe #HelpaLocalAnimal #AdoptLocal

The Best Thing! Dallas is a very handsome one year pointer mix. He's currently in a very temporary foster, but is hoping to make a permanent connection. Dallas can be a bit timid at first with men, but is very affectionate when he warms. He is playful, energetic and full of positive energy. Dallas is strong and needs some work on his manners so would do best in an adult home. His foster has begun to work with him on his manners, and he is an eager pupil and a fast learner. He would be a great fit for an active adult home willing to keep him busy and continue his training. Dallas loves other pups and would benefit from sharing a home with another energetic pup. He would be a great partner for a weekend hike, time at the dog park or an evening snuggle. If interested, please file an application at www.pawsct.org. If you have an application on file, email dogs@pawsct.org. Please like and SHARE so we can get all of our pups home! #TheBestThing #PointerMix #DashingDallas #DogsofPawsCt #ForeverHome #ActivePartner #Playmate #SnuggleBuddy #HelpALocalDog #LetsGetThemHome

Looking for A Temporary Resting Place! Azele is a 2 year old German Shepherd that recently came to PAWS with her 3 week old puppy, Tulip. Azele can be timid and hand shy at first, but comes around quickly and is a complete doll. She is smart, attentive and really bonds with her people. Her pup, Tulip, is sweet and active. She has started solid foods and is being weaned from her Mom. We are looking for a temporary foster for both for at least a few weeks. We have not paired Azele with other dogs yet, and she is a doting Mom who can be quite concerned about her pup. For that reason, they may do best in a home without other dogs or one where they can reliably be kept separate. We are looking for an experienced dog family who can give Azele just a little time to come around and has some knowledge of younger puppies. If you currently have some time on your hands and want to provide a safe and loving environment for Azele and Tulip, please email dogs@pawsct.org. PAWS will provide all medical care and supplies during the foster period. We are not accepting adoption applications at this time. Please like and share to help Azele and Tulip find their foster home♥ #LookingForaTemporaryRestingPlace #FosterFamily #Azele #Tulip #Springtime #DogsofPawsCt #PuppiesofPawsCt

Looking for Greener Pastures! Clover is a 3-4 year old Chihuahua mix looking for a family to call her own. She can be somewhat timid and tentative at first, but enjoys your attention when she warms. She is a lower energy girl who enjoys a good walk, but is just as content to sit in the sun and soak up some rays. Clover would be a good companion for a trip in town, a walk in the park or weekend away time. She's a nice portable size and is looking forward to being someone's sidekick and copilot. She has lived with another dog before, but prefers the companionship of small, calm dogs. Clover came to PAWS when her owner needed long term care. Her world has turned upside down abruptly, and she would do best with an experienced adult home willing to take it slow and give her time to decompress. Please like and share to help Clover find the greener pastures she is looking for. #LookingforGreenerPastures #Clover #ChiCross #Cutie #DogsofPawsCt #Newbeginning #HappilyeverAfter #ForeverHome

He will make someone an excellent partner and companion. He's a great size for taking along for whatever you want to do.

Aiming for A Forever Home! This cutie is Arrow. He's a 4 year old Maltese mix who's been shuffled around a bit and is looking for a place to settle down. He's a sweet and energetic pup who likes being close to his people. Probably due to his history without a stable home, he needs work on his house training and may have some separation anxiety. He will bark when you are away, so would probably be best for a single family home or similar arrangement. He likes other dogs and might benefit from the companionship of other pups. Arrow has plenty of spunk and would make a great walking partner. He's the perfect size to take along for all of your travels whether a long distance adventure, trip to the park or weekend road trip. Arrow also enjoys chilling with his people and will make a perfect cuddle buddy. He will be available for adoption after seeing PAWS' vet, but we are accepting applications for him now. Please like and share to help Arrow find the home that he is aiming for!

Promises! Trixie is a 2 year old Dobermann who is looking for a friend through thick and thin. She was picked up as a stray by a local animal control and is ready for her brand new start. Trixie has some social anxiety and needs a little time to warm. Give her a little space and this girl will be a true friend in no time. She enjoys a good lean, being as close as possible and time spent with you. Trixie loves to play fetch and will enjoy an afternoon of playtime in the back yard. She is an active and intelligent girl who would benefit from keeping mentally and physically stimulated. She will do well with an adult family experienced with the breed. We don't know much about how she feels about other dogs yet, but can do a dog introduction. She will be available to be seen after seeing PAWS' vet, but we are accepting applications for her now at www.pawsct.org. Please like and share to help Trixie find her true friend♥ #Promises #Dobermann #DogsofPawsCt #HelpaLocalAnimal #AdoptaShelterPet #Playtime #Trainingtime #TrueFriend

Second Time Around! Simon is a beautiful marbled brindle one year old Bull Terrier/Shepherd mix who's on the lookout for love again. He is a very amiable guy who never passed on making a new friend. Simon enjoys meeting new pups too and is up for plenty of playtime. He was surrendered to a local animal control after his owner became ill. He lost the support and consistency he needed at a tender age so needs some brushing up on his house training, but is smart, attentive and willing to learn. Simon would be a great partner for active time and would be a willing buddy for walks on the beach, weekend out and about time and whatever adventures you can imagine. He walks beautifully on leash and will be right by your side for whatever you want to do. Simon also knows some basic commands and is willing to follow your lead. We think he may do best with another pup, because of some potential separation anxiety. However, we are not sure if this simply because he was left on his own for an inordinate amount of time due to circumstances. In any event, he's a really great pup who is hoping to find his forever family soon. Please like and share Simon and help him find love again! To adopt, visit www.pawsct.org or stop by the shelter daily 12-4. #SecondTimeAround #Simon #MarbledBrindle #Handsome #DogsofPawsCt #SmartBoy #ActivePartner #AdventureBuddy #AdoptMe #HelpaLocalAnimal
