My story

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

MEET PONGO! - I am in foster, please contact the shelter to meet me!

Pongo is a loveable pup who is house trained and great with humans and dogs. He is doing great with crate training and even is able to sleep through the night in his crate! He needs some work with manners and puppy antics, and loves to have plenty of playtime and walks. You`ll get rewarded with so much love and unlimited scratches of his velvety-soft ears. We recommend a larger kid or adult only household as he still has puppy energy. In foster, he is doing wonderfully with the resident dogs and cats of the house, he even likes little dogs too!

Pongo is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team.

For more information on Pongo or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The Animal Rescue League of Boston is committed to matching adoptable animals with a permanent home. Our conversation-based, application-free adoption process is designed so that the needs of both the animal and the adopter are understood and compatible with one another. We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older
* A current government-issued ID (no student IDs)
* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
* A photo of the cage your pet will live in, if adopting a small animal or bird
