Andover, MA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Rhett Royal's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Oh, he just can't wait to be King! Meet Rhett Royal, an 8-week-old Boxer mix, weighing 10 pounds (as of 1/20/26)! This stately gentleman hails from the Royal litter that was surrendered by their owners in Tennessee. But like every rags to riches story, Rhett knows greater things are on the horizon once he finds his future kingdom! Rhett is a ruler who's not only kind but generous. When he's not giving kisses to your babies, or spending time outside the castle walls with other dogs, he'll pay you fairly for all your hard work in taking care of him. Sure, the payment is just in cuddles, but he can't give away all his riches! This playful prince is friendly and fun-loving and might even pull at your shoelaces to get your attention. So be ready to cater to his every whim and request if you don't want to end up in the dungeon! Like his siblings, Rhett is still undergoing prince training (potty, commands, leash work) to prepare for his rightful place on the throne. So luckily you have time to get in his good graces! How kind of him! Get ready for the royal treatment with Rhett Royal! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be. To adopt or learn more about Rhett Royal, you must fill out an adoption application. To find the application, copy and paste this URL into your browser: WWW.GDRNE.COM/ADOPTION-APPLICATION [Adoption Fee: $575] ** PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works. Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.

Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally. **Please read Theo Valentine's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Roses are red, violets are blue, will you take Theo home with you? Meet Theo Valentine, a 10-week-old Boxer/Weimaraner mix who's also Greyhound, Terrier, Lab, and Basenji! Basically he's the Perfect American Mutt! This casanova weighs 9 pounds (as of 2/2/26) and hails from the VALENTINE litter. His siblings were given away at a Walmart parking lot in Tennessee just before Christmas. Theo is the kind of boy that will charm anyone with his infectious puppy energy. When he's not running around with his siblings or playing with his toys, you can find him writing sonnets like a modern day Shakespeare! This boy loves to love and you can bet he'll give you all the kisses and snuggles while you watch yet another Hallmark movie with Lacey Chabert. Theo doesn't mind one bit. In fact, hand him the popcorn 'cause he's invested! Theo gets along great with dogs, cats and children and is the perfect Valentine's date for when the person your mother recommended just doesn't measure up. He would be great with an active person or family as he has a lot of energy, but if you're as adventurous as he is, it's a match-made in heaven! Theo is still a baby so he'll need some patience from his fur-ever family when it comes to puppy training (potty, leashes, etc), but he's great with crates! Though honestly, you'll probably sleep better having him by your side anyway. In terms of medical history, Theo used to have ringworm, but we're happy to report that he is cured now and healthy! Bring this lover boy home today and you'll never have a lonely Valentine's Day! All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be. To adopt or learn more about Theo Valentine, you must fill out an adoption application.

Roughly 90% of our dogs are adopted prior to their transport up to MA and 10% are adopted locally.Meet Roo! Roo is approximately 1 year old, 50 lbs currently and he might have some Boxer in his mix! He was found as a stray. In his foster home, he is doing great with house training, crate training, and leash walking. He could join households with kids 5+, and other playful dogs. No cats, please!His foster says, `Hi! My name is Roo because when I run I look like a kangaroo! Roo is a 1-year-old sweetheart with the cutest underbite you’ve ever seen and a personality to match. He’s good with other dogs (but no cats, please!) and has the best balance of energy. He loves all toys and is always happy to play, whether it’s tossing one around on his own or engaging in a game with you. When playtime is over, he’s just as content relaxing nearby and enjoying the calm. He would thrive in a home where he can be part of daily life — lounging nearby, going for walks, and soaking up affection. He’s the perfect mix of loyal companion and laid-back couch buddy. Whether you’re looking for a walking partner, a best friend, or a dog who will make your house feel more like home, he checks all the boxes.`He is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on February 27th or possibly late January.
