My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello I'm Southie! I just turned 2 years old and I'm looking for my forever home. I'm 16lbs and I can be pretty rambunctious and playful, but I also enjoy just snuggling down with you on the couch or finding a quiet spot in the sun to relax. (I really love my foster parents' patio.) I love taking walks outside and I enjoy meeting and playing with other dogs.

Here's a video of me playing fetch! https://goo.gl/photos/fakVbA5ZCoYqSZ3Z9

I'm crate trained and understand about things and places in the house that are not for dogs. I don't have a lot of tricks in my repertoire but I learn fast and respond well to treats.

I'm wary of strange people coming into my space unexpectedly so I need a bit of time to adjust to new humans. It also might take a couple days to feel comfortable in a new space but it's worth it to find my forever home!


Southie is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Southie is being fostered in Somerville, MA.

NOTE: Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label
I'm crate trained and very respectful of things in the house that are not for dogs.

I don't like when strange people come into my space unexpectedly so I need someone who can take it slow, let me get comfortable, and teach me how to share! I'd do best in a home with a smaller number of people. So far I've been really happy having one person I can devote all my love and attention to.
