Sophie is a little lab/hound/terrier mix puppy who was rescued after having been found living with her brothers and sisters under a shed. She’s about six months old and has been working on being less fearful. We’ve been working on her confidence. She plays well with her foster mom's little French Bulldog. Despite their size difference, they play for hours on end!


Sophie really wants to please. She listens well and is working on her manners. House training is coming along well - a little more time and we'll have it nailed.



Sophie’s a sweet girl with very soft fur who would enjoy a family with an older dog, female or male, so she can become better socialized and learn that people are okay. She’s had two rounds of vaccinations and will have one last round before she’s adopted. ??Please consider making Sophie a member of your family. She deserves so much more than living under a shed. She’ll give you years of loyalty and love with her sunny personality.

The adoption donation covers all pre-adoption vet costs (general health exam, vaccinations, heartworm testing/treatment when necessary)




PAWS of 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.


We are often asked, ""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 dog 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 him/her. 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 donations. 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 do not come with a known history.




Please click on the "Donate" button below to make your adoption donation. If you can not adopt at this time, but would like to support the mission of PAWS New England, we would be endlessly grateful for your donation. PAWS relies entirely on donations and grants to maintain our operating budget. Without the generosity of people like you, we would not be able to save dogs like the one pictured above. Thank you for your support!
