SILLY SALLY - LOCAL! Boston Terrier & American Staffordshire Terrier Mix Princeton, MA

Sally is approximately 3-4 years and is a very friendly, sweet little pittie girl. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative and on monthly flea/tick/heartworm preventative. Only weighing in at 40 lbs, she's very petite and only stands about a foot off the ground at the shoulder. She does very well in her crate and is completely house trained. She knows to do her business right away when she goes outside and hasn't had an accident inside yet! We're not sure what her past life was like but she has good house manners and loves to play with the dogs in her foster home. Did we mention Sally is also great with cats?? :)


Sally is a very sweet girl. She gets on great with other dogs, and people. She would work well in an apartment setting as she is low energy and low maintenance. We would not suggest small children as she can be quite persistent about getting attention. However, grown children would get a kick out of her. She is sure to be a best friend to anyone who is willing to give her lots of affection. She is crate trained, very well house trained and shows no aggression when put in various situations. She listens well off leash, comes when called and with minimal training has the potential of being a great, well-rounded dog! Sally's ideal home would be with someone who has bully breed experience, and preferably another dog as well. She seems to take a lot of cues from her foster brother and other canine friends on how to behave in various situations.



Little Sally hails from a pound in Hartford, CT where she was found as a stray. The fantastic animal control officer in Hartford called us and asked for our help when it was the last day Sally was allowed to be at the shelter (Hartford, CT only has funding to hold dogs for 10 days before they are forced to euthanize them) and the ACO said she was just a doll and would make an amazing pet. Boy, are we glad we jumped at the opportunity to help this little girl- she is darling!

The adoption donation covers all pre-adoption vet costs (vaccinations, spaying/neutering, HW test/treatment, etc.) and includes their transportation up to New England. PAWS New England is not shelter but a rescue and thus is not funded by any city or state organization - we rely solely on the donations of our adopters to help defray the costs associated with saving these precious lives. Unless otherwise stated, all of our dogs are located in Tennessee at our vet clinic's boarding facility or in foster care. If a dog is "local", that means he or she is at one of our foster homes in New England.



We know you are wondering, "Why would you charge ‘so much’ for a rescue pet? Why not just place it in a good home?" The answer is because we need adopters who are willing to support all rescue pets, not just the dog they adopt. A young, healthy dog might cost us $150-400 in (discounted) vet care, and many people will want to adopt it. An older one with health issues can easily cost $500-1500 in veterinary expenses, and it may require months of foster care for rehabilitation; yet we can only ask a minimal adoption fee, and it may be a long time until anyone comes forward to adopt it. Fees from the younger, more adoptable dogs help offset the cost of caring for the others. Most of our dogs have a sad story to tell, and some have suffered through years of neglect or abuse. We hope that you too are willing to give an opportunity for a better life to ALL of our dogs by supporting them through adoption fees. Without these funds, our rescue efforts would not be possible.



ALL KNOWN INFORMATION IS LISTED HERE. We do our best to give accurate information, but most of our dogs are rescues and don't come with a known history.

Please remember these are rescued dogs, not dogs coming from a breeder or behavior academy. They may have issues that can be worked with - we do our best to determine these ahead of time. Please do not expect them to be perfect. They are not, neither are we - that's why we love them so much!!!
