About Paulie

Paulie had a rough start—after his former owner was arrested, he was left chained on a pile of trash and had to be rescued with law enforcement’s help. He’s put all that behind him now and you’d never know his past from meeting him. At the rescue in Georgia, Paulie’s been a burst of energy and happiness, running and playing every chance he gets. He’s very well-socialized, enjoys time with people, and gets along easily with other dogs. He wants a household that can keep up with his playful spirit and give him room to stretch his legs. Despite everything he’s been through, he’s remarkably affectionate and clearly loves life. Paulie is heartworm-free after treatment, fully vetted, and up to date on monthly preventatives. He’s crate-acclimated but will need a bit more help finishing up his house training. He thrives with an active, hands-on adopter and is ready to be someone’s loyal companion. Ready to fall in love?
