LOCAL FOSTER UPDATE:
I can't get over how well behaved they are. They love to be out in the yard. They are so calm in the house. They are wonderful dogs.
Meet Titan & Merlin!! Titan (the fluffier one of the two) and Merlin are Great Pyrenees mixes that are brothers who were adopted together from a Kentuckye Pound as puppies 8 years ago; that same adopter returned them at 8 years of age because he didn't want them anymore! PAWS NE could not stand the thought of these dogs being euthanized - the fact they are 8 years of age meant almost certain death for them. In addition, we will make every effort to keep them together. How could we in good faith ever separate them now.
Both boys are neutered, up to date on their shots and negative for heartworm. They are maintained on HW medicine.
They get along great with children and are wonderful dogs.
The typical lifespan for Great Pyrs is 10-12 years so they have some good living to do! Why not with you???

The adoption donation covers all pre-adoption vet costs (vaccinations, spaying/neutering (when age appropriate), heartworm testing/treatment when necessary and includes transportation up to New England ($125.00 per dog). Unless otherwise stated, all of our dogs are located outside of Rhode Island boarded either at one of our vet clinics or in foster care. If a dog is listed as "local, he /she is at one of our foster homes in New England.
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 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.
