Story
Meet Luna Moth  Some dogs get a second chance. Luna Moth got hers with only moments to spare. If you are looking for a couch potato, keep scrolling. Luna Moth is the life of the party! She is active, spunky, and always ready for her next adventure. Whether she's zooming around the yard, making new dog friends, or convincing everyone she meets to play, her enthusiasm for life is contagious. She has that bright, eager, always-up-for-anything personality that makes every day a little more fun She gets along great with other dogs and would love a family that can keep up with her playful spirit while giving her plenty of opportunities to learn, explore, and make memories. Luna Moth was given a chance to live. Now all she needs is someone to give her a chance to be loved forever Her story Luna Moth found herself on the euthanasia list after suffering a serious leg injury. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the 1510 Foundation, who stepped up to cover the cost of her surgery, we were able to say "yes" just in time. Today, this resilient girl is healed, thriving, and making the most of every single day. 4 months old and about 25 lbsborder collie mix?! best guess!would loveee a playful dog companion in homefully vetted and healing from leg surgery Available for adoption 7/16 with pick up in amesbury please remember we are all volunteers, incomplete applications will not be processed If you are interested in adopting a GBP rescue PAL, please submit an application and we will reach out to you within 48 hours to start the approval process. https://galsbestpal.com/adoption/ It’s ok if you don’t know exactly what you are looking for, we are experts in matchmaking and can talk with you and figure out what PAL would be a good fit for your home!  If you would like to inquire about saving a life & becoming a FOSTER HERO, please fill out an application and a FOSTER HEROES TEAM volunteer will reach out to you to go over our lifesaving foster based rescue program! https://galsbestpal.com/foster/ To learn more about our mission, and to join our mailing list go to https://galsbestpal.com/ Follow us on FB and Instagram for extra photos, updates & videos of our available dogs.

Story
Meet Miloh! His favorite things are walks with dog friends,treats, curling up on comfy bedding, and pets once he warms up. Miloh is ahappy, bouncy, and super wiggly pup, looking for a family to bring endlessjoy! Miloh enjoys a good walk like any dog, but definitely likes to settlein at the end of the day. Miloh has enjoyed spending time around othermellow dogs at the shelter, so we think they may do well with a caninesibling that is comfortable with a more calm friend. Miloh has been through a few transitions recently, and may need a gentlestart, but once they feel secure, theyll reward you with endless loveand loyalty!

Story
Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: Unknown, likely yesGood with kids: Yes, dog savvy childrenCrate trained: YesHouse Trained: Yes Audie Murphy is a sweet, gentle, and submissive little guy. He craves positive attention and affection. He has a medium energy level with bursts of higher energy. His ideal home would be a patient one to allow him to learn to trust humans at his own pace.Audie enjoys being in a home with other happy dogs but slow intros with new dogs help him gain confidence. He loves stuffed squeaky toys, deer antlers and chews, and especially regular meals and a clean crate to call his safe space. Audie would be good with older, dog savvy kids since he can be shy at first and prefers a calmer environment. He has seen outdoor cats and showed no interest, so would likely coexist with a feline sibling.Audie is both crate and house trained and is used to being in his crate when home alone. He walks well on a leash in familiar surroundings, but might hang back in new places.Audie has come a long way since leaving shelter life behind him. He would love a new family to make him feel safe and he will give so much love in return! Could your family be the perfect match?Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at www.lasthopek9.org.

Story
Lilo's foster family in Texas is absolutely in love with her!!! She is a little shy at first but once she warms up after a a some patience and treats....she is very affectionate and loving. She is a young adult who had 9 beautiful puppies and was a great mom. 45 pound mixed breed, border collie mix. She is very aware of what is going on around her at all times, foster thinks she has border collie in her which explains why she always wants to be working and playing, not in a hyper way. Lilo is very smart is is doing great with her training. Is a pro at sit and is getting there quickly with leash walking and heel. 9 and 14 year old grandchildren of the foster visit often and she does great with them. On leash she doesn't seem to care about the other animals on the property, goats and ducks. Going to do cat intro see how that goes. The perfect home for Lilo would be an patient, but active home that enjoys training and would get pleasure in seeing her blossom as she learns more every day. www.sunnypawsrecue.org
