Story

Meet Basil!Sweet baby Basil is just a pup at only ten months old. She's a sensitive gal which is understandable because coming to the shelter from a home can be a big, confusing transition and it can be overwhelming. Basil is a boxer/American bulldog mix and weighs about 60lbs.While it takes a minute or two to win her over, she immediately becomes a big goofy blockhead with all of the zoomies! She's genuinely just a big baby that needs all of the coddling, all of the reassurance, and all of the snuggles. She's a bouncy bean that is a big hammy ham for attention. She loves her walkies and loves rope/tug toys but can and will turn the rope toy into a dangerous weapon when she starts swinging it around like a medieval mace. She'll take you at the knees/ankles if you're not careful. Anyone remember the Skip-It and how it would smash your ankle bones? Yeah, like that.Basil is fantastic with other dogs and lights up like a Christmas tree when she sees them, especially big goofy male dogs. (She seems to have a type.) She's all play bows and zoomies trying to get them to chase her. She's afraid of cats because big dogs afraid of cats seems to be trending here lately. We are looking for an adult-only home (or teenagers and adults). Since she's a "restricted breed", you must own your own home or live in a home owned by a family member.To apply, visit foreverpaws.com and click adopt to download our application. Once complete, you can email it to us at fpas1@foreverpaws.com or fax it to us at 508-677-9175.

Female, 7 yrs 4 mos

Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Meet Nessie! A tender-hearted seven-and-a-half-year-old Boxer mix currently in East Lansing, MI, whose soulful eyes and velvety tan coat (with a white blaze down her chest) reflect a life spent longing for connection, calm, and comfort. At 55 pounds of snuggly sweetness, Nessie is what you'd call a professional cuddler! If there were an award for being a cozy couch companion, she'd win paws down. Her greatest joy? Stretching out beside you, resting her head close, and quietly soaking in the warmth of your presence. She’s house-trained, crate-savvy, and knows a whole vocabulary of helpful commands like “sit,” “come,” “leave it,” and “kennel up.” Whether she’s nibbling on a hard chew toy or curling into a donut shape in her crate (her personal sanctuary), Nessie lives for the simple pleasures of a peaceful, predictable life. Nessie experiences anxiety and has struggled with other dogs, especially sharing space with her canine sister. Over the years, the two have had occasional altercations that have been unpredictable. Despite years of dedicated management (including professional behavioral support, training, and carefully structured reintroductions) the tension between them never fully resolved. Because of this, Nessie needs a home that's quiet, adult-only, pet-free, and steady. A secure, fenced yard would be her dream! A space to sniff, explore, and sunbathe without encountering other dogs. She’s not a fan of thunderstorms and finds being left alone tough, but with loving companionship and a steady routine (meals twice a day, her cozy crate always accessible), she finds comfort. Nessie takes a small daily medication that supports bladder control while she sleeps. It’s fully managed, and she has no daytime accidents. What shines brightest in Nessie is her devotion. She doesn’t just want to be near her person, she needs to be. She’s the kind of dog who will press her head into your hand, lean into your side, and make you feel like the most important person in the world! Could your heart and home be the peaceful place this sweet girl needs to settle into the next chapter of her life? To learn more or meet Nessie, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Story

Meet Melody! Melody is approximately 2 years old, 56 lbs currently and she may have some Hound in her mix! In her foster home, she is working hard on house-training, crate training, and leash walking. She could go to a home with kids 10+, and other dogs. SHe has not been exposed to cats.Her foster says, `Melody would be great in a home with another dog her size to play with! She enjoys meal time, and picked up quickly to the new routine. She had a few accidents, but never while crated. She willingly goes into her crate to eat, and for bed times with a treat. She’s been leash walked because we have no fence, but I know she’d love to run free with another dog and play fetch. She loves a good cuddle on the couch, but might nibble on the blankets and pillows while she’s at it. Melody is the sweetest cuddle bug and would make a loyal dog to her new adopters!`She is available for adoption by appointment with an approved adopter in Westford, MA.

Maya

Boxer/American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 8 yrs 7 mos

Amherst, MA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Meet Maya! A serene eight-and-a-half-year-old brindle-coated sweetheart currently living in Doylestown, PA, whose quiet presence is like a soft blanket on a chilly evening. With a gentle gaze and calm demeanor, Maya may take a moment to warm up but when she does, she’ll melt right into your lap and your heart. Weighing in at around 35 pounds, Maya is a medium-sized girl with a passive personality and a preference for the cozy comforts of indoor life. Her nickname? “Vampire dog” because she much prefers the nighttime for her outdoor adventures! She isn’t one to demand constant attention, but when she chooses to snuggle up beside you, it’s like being chosen by a tiny, fuzzy queen. Maya hasn’t shown interest in toys much, especially after realizing her companion Kalle can be a bit protective over them, but she finds her joy in soft bedding, calm environments, and being close to her trusted humans. She’s crate trained, house-trained, and takes everything at her own peaceful pace. Thunder makes her nervous and she prefers a slower approach when meeting new people. Quick movements can unsettle her, but patience and treats go a long way in helping her feel safe. Though Maya hasn’t had formal training, her quiet nature makes her a lovely presence in a calm home. She’s not a fan of cats and may be a bit shy around unfamiliar dogs, but she remains gentle and respectful. Maya has been Kalle’s quiet companion for years, and they’ve built a strong bond together. While Maya would be perfectly content in a loving home of her own, she would be especially happy if Kalle could join her in this next chapter. Are you ready to welcome this gentle little night owl into your heart? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about Maya!

Story

Meet O’Shae A Sweet & Goofy friend. O’Shae’s story is a powerful reminder of how resilient and forgiving dogs can be. On the hardest day of his life, when he was left behind at a crowded shelter, he was terrified but never once unkind. Even frozen with fear, his gentle soul shone through The beautiful part? Every time a volunteer stopped to show him kindness—whether a walk, a cuddle, or just a little playtime—he’d loosen up and let his true puppy self peek out. Thanks to those amazing volunteers, O’Shae’s life was saved - just in the nick of time. Now safe and loved, this boy is blossoming into the fun-loving, goofy pup he was always meant to be. He’s a HUGE toy fan (seriously—tennis balls are his jam ), and once he feels comfortable — which doesn’t take long, his silly, playful side lights up the whole yard.

Hayley

Boxer/American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, 10 yrs 6 mos

Amherst, MA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

House-trained,

Story

Meet Hayley! A spirited ten-year-old Boxer/American Staffordshire Terrier mix currently living in Richmond, VA, whose essence is a warm embrace wrapped in a fawn coat with charming white accents. Hayley is a tender-hearted girl with an endless supply of love to give! At 35 pounds, she is the perfect medium-sized companion who believes that laps exist purely for her snuggles. She thrives on physical affection and will nuzzle your hands, curl into your side, or rest her head in your lap as if to say, “You’re my entire world.” Her daily joy comes from playing with stuffed toys and chasing after balls, followed by a cozy nap near her favorite human. She knows many commands including sit, lay down, stay, leave it, wait, stand, paw, and drop it. Her intelligence and eagerness to please make her training sessions filled with quiet pride and mutual trust. Though she hasn’t had formal obedience classes, she learns quickly with positive reinforcement and would love a guardian who continues nurturing her gentle mind. Hayley’s sensitive side means she seeks a calm, predictable home. Loud noises, crowded environments, or unexpected touches can make her anxious, and she may offer a warning yip or gentle nip to communicate when she feels overwhelmed. She has never bitten anyone but benefits deeply from guardians who respect her boundaries and understand her body language. She is especially tender about her paws and eats a lamb-based sensitive skin diet to keep her feeling comfortable and itch-free. When it comes to furry friends, Hayley prefers being the only pet. She has shown reactivity to unfamiliar dogs and is selective with cats, sometimes ignoring them, other times reacting based on their energy. Her ideal home would be a peaceful haven with no other animals, no young children, and guardians who cherish quiet walks, routine snuggles, and serene evenings watching the sun set together. Reach out today at adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn how this deeply affectionate girl could become your loyal companion and best friend!
