My story

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

Hi I’m Elle! I am sweet and smart itty bitty Pittie mix who can’t wait to meet you! No one can give me any good reason for why, but I ended up spending 5 years at a local animal control facility in MA before this rescue got me into a foster home. Good news, I am so grateful to live in a home now and know exactly what to do and how to act because I’ve been dreaming about this my whole life! I love to snuggle up with humans and take long naps. I also really love to play ball! I am on a foster home with two crazy 2 legged humans - I think you call them toddlers - they like to give me treats and even taught me how to play hide and seek with treats so that’s kinda fun! They like to snuggle too! As long as I get to have some fun each day, I’m a laid back gal in the home and a very easy keeper! Outside, I get a bit overstimulated by the world, especially small animals, dogs and even cars sometimes. I’m a work in progress there but a fenced yard would make it very easy for me to have fun outside without worrying too much! I know I am going to meet an amazing family soon, and it will probably be awesome, but I’ll keep being patient for now. Could it be you?

More about this rescue

We are a passionate group of volunteers committed to rescuing, rehabilitating, advocating for and creating happy endings for dogs who are often discriminated against based on their breed alone.

We are an approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization registered to rescue dogs in MA (and soon to be in NH as well).

Many of the dogs we strive to save are homeless, abused, neglected or simply misjudged, yet all of them deserve a second chance. Many never get that second chance because they are a breed which has been blacklisted from housing complexes, home insurance policies and even banned from living in certain cities or states.

Our goal is to help give these precious misunderstood dogs a second chance at the life that they deserve by placing them in loving foster and forever homes. We work closely within our communities and through local animal control facilities and shelters to save as many dogs as possible. Our network of volunteers, advocates and fosters work tirelessly to ensure that every dog we meet is given a chance to prove the world wrong.
