Listing confirmed 4 November 2026
All adoption applications are handled directly by PAWS Restart. Contact them to arrange a meet-and-greet and start the adoption process.
Meet Smokey! Smokey is a happy, playful little puppy who is just beginning to learn about the world around him. He's still learning the basics of being a dog, including toilet training, and will need a family who can give him the time, patience and guidance he needs to grow into a well-rounded adult. Smokey would benefit from a home with a friendly, confident resident dog who can help show him the ropes and be a companion as he learns. He is expected to be small to medium-sized when fully grown, although his adult size is uncertain, as is often the case with rescue puppies.
