Say hello to Frannie! This sweet girl came to us recently and is hoping to find her perfect match! Frannie loves to play with toys and chase them! She is still working on her leash manners, but is a fast learner. This intelligent girl is learning words like "sit", "paw", and "down". Frannie loves getting pets, and giving lots of kisses. We haven't seen Frannie with dog or cats yet, so she will need tested before going into a home. If this happy girl sounds like the girl for you, you can put in an application today! Frannie is 9 months old, spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Kennel #2081

Story
Meet Charlie! Don't let this cute little face fool you, he knows how to put the charm on, but he is also set in his ways and has no problem telling you. Charlie has been working with staff and the behaviorist on structure and reassuring him that he doesn't have to be grumpy to let people know he wants his space. For too long Charlie has been allowed to set his own rules. He needs a home that will continue to work with him on structure and making good choices when he feels overwhelmed. Charlie is looking for an adult only home, with no other fur-friends. Please reach out to shelter staff if you are interested in learning more about Charlie. Charlie is 6 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Kennel # 2081

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.NOTE- FRED IS LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR AN INDIVIDUAL ASKING TO REHOME THEIR PET.  PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW.

Overview & Core TemperamentFred is a sensitive, sweet, emotionally intuitive herding-breed mix who forms deep, meaningful bonds with the people he trusts. Once he feels safe, he becomes affectionate, playful, gentle, has a quirky smile, connected, and eager to be near his person. He settles well in the home, often resting at your feet or choosing a comfortable nearby spot. He likes being close but is not clingy; he simply enjoys companionship from a place of safety.Fred thrives with calm, predictable handling, gentle voices, and slow movements that give him space to build trust at his own pace. 2. Sensitivity & Emotional NeedsFred is highly sensitive and easily overwhelmed by unfamiliar people, sudden movement into hisspace, loud or chaotic environments, and unpredictability.He needs slow introductions, time to observe, soft tones, gentle body language, consistent routines, and a peaceful, stable environment. With these supports, he warms up beautifully and becomes affectionate, expressive, and securely attached. 3. Fear-Based BehaviorsFred has fear-based reactivity with new people, not true aggression. When overwhelmed, he maygrowl or snap if he feels cornered or pressured. With proper introductions and calm interactions, these behaviors reduce significantly or disappear. 4. Separation & Isolation AnxietyFred has separation and isolation anxiety. When left alone, he may pace, bark, whine, pantexcessively, drool excessively, become restless, or struggle to settle. Despite this distress, he has never been destructive and does not soil indoors. He needs gradual alone-time training, consistency, predictability, a low-stress environment, andpossibly a calm dog companion. 5. Behavior with Other DogsFred plays well with other dogs, adjusts his energy appropriately, relaxes around calm dogs, gainsconfidence from a steady canine companion, and checks in frequently with his person.On leash, he may show mild reactivity to other dogs on leash at close ranges but redirects well.Off leash he is appropriate, social, playful, and not aggressive.6.

Story
Name: Rebel Age: 11 months Breed: Border Collie mix Size: 45 lbs Adoption Application: https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 Contact: transport@hssm.org Rebel is an 11-month-old Border Collie mix with energy to spare and a personality that’s as big as his zoomies. Rebel was an owner surrender due to his owner being older and not being able to handle him being such an active dog. True to his name, he’s always ready for action—whether that’s chasing a ball, learning a new trick, or turning the yard into his personal playground. Smart and alert, Rebel thrives when his mind and body stay busy. Rebel will do very well with people who understand his breed and can give him ways to exert all of his expendable energy. He is the type of dog that would do well with a job. This bright young pup would love a home that enjoys an active lifestyle and can keep up with his enthusiasm for adventure. Border Collie mixes are known for their intelligence, and Rebel is no exception—he’s eager to learn and ready to impress with the right guidance and positive training. Rebel is still growing into the amazing dog he’s meant to be and would shine with a family ready to channel his energy into fun, learning, and plenty of playtime. Reble already knows basic commands and would definitely be able to learn more advanced commands. If you’re looking for a lively sidekick who will keep life exciting, Rebel is ready to lead the charge. 🐾 Rebel's $300 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccines, microchip AND transport fee to a location near you. We currently have transportation to CT, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, GA, and TN. Please email transport@hssm.org for more information on transports! --> If you are interested in adopting Rebel please fill out our online application here: (https://forms.gle/nuKXoMu6gjS5DhFm8 - Dog). A staff member will reach out if your application is approved to discuss the adoption process. No fenced in yard required, and YES - we adopt to families with children! The adoption will not be final until the adoption contract is discussed and signed. Transports are arranged for specific dates, typically within 1-3 weeks of approving your application. Adopters will meet at a designated meeting spot to pick up their new companions. For further information, please first fill out the application referenced above. **Due to import regulations we are not able to adopt to MA or RI residents at this time.

Story
Spartan was running with a large group of Border Collies that were dumped. He was the last one to be rescued as he was shy and very elusive, he was eventually trapped and brought into the shelter. When he arrived, he was very shy and unsure of the shelter environment but has flourished with time and a little extra TLC. He loves to go on walks and loves to be with you! Spartan is a gentle guy that will need someone that understands that he may not be the bravest dog, but he will certainly be your best friend no matter what! Spartan did test positive for lyme and anaplasmosis that come from tick bites. He also tested positive for Hepatozoonosis americanum which is a tick bourne disease that comes from consuming affected ticks. He has been treated for the Lyme and Anaplasmosis and has been given initial treatment for the Hepatozoonosis americanum. However, Hepatozoonosis americanum is unfortunately something he will have for the rest of his life, but it can be managed. Spartan will need a home that understands that he will need regular veterinary care and are able to provide him with it, especially when he has a flare up. Spartan is hoping to find his loving forever home where he will not have to worry about being left behind ever again! Spartan must meet all members of the family that reside in the home. He has been neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, Heartworm/Lyme tested, and microchipped since his arrival at the shelter.
