Dixie Roo - Labrador Retriever Dog For Adoption

View more

She enjoyed the freedom of the farm that she was found on but unfortunately she has a thing for cows- chasing them to be exact- and was once again on the search for her forever home! Thankfully a PAWS volunteer heard about Dixie and she is now a PAWS girl! This sweet girl is shy at first but quickly warms up to her people. She enjoys sleeping in bed with her humans but understands that she sometimes needs to sleep in her own bed. She is house trained and will let you know when she needs to go out. She loves being an inside dog and loves hanging out the house. She is working on leash training and training in her foster home. Dixie would love an active family with a fenced yard and a big bed! Please consider adding this love bug to your home! **Update 9/17 Dixie Roo has completed her hw treatment. She likes to have her tummy and head rubbed. Very quiet and laid back lab. Has been couch potato here, but needs exercise. She LOVES to go on walks and car rides! Still shy around new people, but comes around.

The number of individual inquiries is overwhelming and we are finding it difficult to respond to each one. We cannot guarantee you will receive a timely response. Paws New England is a rescue, not a shelter, and as such we do not have our dogs housed in one location - they are in foster homes both in New England and in our southern foster homes. If you're interested in a specific dog, please complete a short online application and you will receive a reply within 48 hours so you can ask questions. At present, if a dog is listed on our website, the dog is considered still available HOWEVER, may have applications that have come in before yours but it's still too early to know if any are a good match; therefore we encourage you to apply. NOTICE WITH REGARD TO LOCATION OF DOGS: Please note: Paws New England is a foster-based rescue. We do not have a brick and mortar building to house the dogs we rescue. We have found that dogs in foster homes are much more adoptable because they have been observed in a home setting. Dogs listed with Paws New England typically reside in various locations throughout the south (primarily Tennessee, Texas, and Arkansas) and New England (not necessarily in the state of Rhode Island). You will be notified by the adoption coordinator of the location of the dog you are interested in so you have the ability to decide whether to pursue adoption or not. Dogs transported to New England are done so at a fee of $150.00 paid directly to the transporting company by Paws New England; no additional transport costs are responsibility of adopter. This fee is included in the adoption donation. 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 dog will help others in need. All known information about the animal is listed above. We do our best to give accurate information, but most of our dogs are rescues and do not come with a known history. Paws New England abides by the dog importation regulations set forth in the states of MA, CT, NH and RI.
