Story
Ruthie is a 2-year-old, 60-lb Boxer mix with a gentle soul and a brilliant mind. Before coming into rescue, Ruthie lived on her own for at least 6 months, skillfully evading capture, multiple trapping attempts, and surviving in an industrial area of town. Fed by kind mechanics and workers, she learned how to stay safe, avoid danger, and always show up for food — and that intelligence still shines through today. After a dramatic capture, Ruthie has been in a foster home, where she’s proven to be a very polite houseguest. She is fully house-trained and, even at her scariest moments, has never shown a hint of aggression — no growling, no raised lips, just fear. Ruthie is shy and deeply cautious with people, but she is sweet, gentle, and incredibly observant. We would not be surprised if Ruthie spent some of her life in someone’s home.  This brainy girl reads the room like a pro. She knows when a human might approach and will quietly skedaddle to keep herself feeling safe. While she’s still very nervous about leashes and handling, she allows most people to gently scratch her muzzle, and she’s learning — slowly but surely — that human touch isn’t such a bad thing. Watching her progress has been incredibly rewarding, especially as she’s started to enjoy ear scratches and soft affection from her foster mom. Ruthie is a great pack dog. She does beautifully with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and enjoys playful wrestling with dogs her size, but doesn’t demand play.  She happily coexists with the resident Chihuahua in her foster home. Ruthie is calm and content indoors and also enjoys a daily visit to the dog park. She’s a quiet presence who’s perfectly happy lounging on a chair, listening to her foster mom’s Zoom calls, and soaking in the safety of home life. At home, Ruthie is her foster mom’s quiet shadow. She sleeps in her room, wiggles with excitement when she comes home, follows her around the dog park — and yet may still hop off her bed and slip away if that same foster mom walks toward her for a pet. With Ruthie, trust is built in tiny, meaningful moments, and every day brings progress. Because of her history, Ruthie is a high flight-risk dog, especially in the early days. She will need a very committed adopter with a securely fenced yard, experience with fearful or flight-risk dogs, and a willingness to use safety tools like GPS collars, double leashes, and secure handling. Strength matters too — this is a 60-lb girl who needs someone confident and prepared. Ruthie has been around children at the dog park and treats them like little adults — with polite, reserved hesitation. She is food-motivated, sweet, and incredibly smart. With patience, structure, and time, she has all the makings of a truly special companion. Ruthie is one of those dogs who, with the right adopter and a few committed months of trust-building, will become a dream dog. Watching her finally relax, feel safe, and just be a dog has been an absolute privilege — and we can’t wait to see her find the forever home she deserves. ccrnewengland@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:   Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.  Request an application and learn more about Critter Cavalry at https://www.crittercavalry.com/adoption.March 7, 2026, 12:24 pm

Story
Meet Lacy, our 2.5-year-old 50 lb rescue! She is an incredibly loving, loyal, and calm companion who just wants to be by your side. She loves snuggling up on the couch or in bed. Lacy is wonderfully behaved at home, fantastic on walks (non-reactive to people or other dogs), and has a blast playing at doggy daycare! As much as we adore her, we are expecting a baby and must make the heartbreaking decision to rehome her. Lacy bonds strongly and exhibits guarding behavior around me, especially when visitors arrive. She did have a bite incident in May 2025. Since then, we've invested in extensive training and tried medication, resulting in zero incidents since! Because she still shows protective tendencies, we and our trainer agree it isn't safe to keep her with a newborn. Lacy will absolutely thrive in a calm home without small children or frequent visitors, where she can be your snuggly best friend.

Story
THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME WITHIN A REASONABLE DISTANCE OF OUR KENNEL IN WOBURN, MA. ONCE A POTENTIAL ADOPTER IS MATCHED WITH A DOG AND GOES THROUGH OUR REFERENCE AND INTERVIEW PROCESS WITH AN ADOPTION COORDINATOR THIS DOG WOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR YOU TO MEET BEFORE ADOPTION. IT IS OUR GOAL TO GET ALL LOCAL DOGS TO THEIR FOREVER FAMILIES WITHIN 7 DAYS ONCE MATCHED. **Please read Tucker Loyal's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!** Meet Dipper Stardust, a 6-week-old Boxer / Bulldog mix, weighing approx. 4-6 pounds as of (3/18/26). His mom is Glitter Gal (also adoptable). Just like how there's a range of colors in confetti, the STARDUST pups are a mix of many awesome breeds making them the Perfect American Mutts! We might not know their dad's breed, but we do know mom is an adult at 57 pounds, so we suspect they might be around that size when grown. These pups are sure to bring the pomp and circumstance to any celebration! Dipper Stardust is basically the dog version of Indiana Jones! This boy loves exploring his surroundings and finding treasure in hidden places. Sure, it might be the remote you lost under the couch, but at least he helped you find it! Dipper's great like that! His single black eyebrow sets him apart from his brothers and sisters, while accentuating those beautiful blue eyes he shares with them. He likes to call his eyebrow his monocle, because he's always looking at at the stars. The Big Dipper and Little Dipper are his favorite constellations, obviously. When he's not playing with you or being curious about the world around him, Dipper will curl up in your lap for a nap after a long day. Doesn't that sound amazing? He thinks so. The Stardust pups are awesome with other dogs and while they haven't met cats or kids yet, they hope to win them over too! Because they're brand new to this Earth, the Stardust pups will need assistance and love when it comes to potty training, leashing, commands, etc. so that they can be the best family members they can be! For your patience and help, they'll send glitter packages to your enemies, so be sure to give them a list of the most annoying people you know! Make everyday a starry one! Bring the Stardust pups home today! 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 Tucker Loyal, 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: $495] ** 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. To learn more about our *shelterless* rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of Frequently Asked Questions on our website at WWW.GDRNE.COM.

🚨 48 HOURS TO SAVE TILLY – NEGLECTED BABY WILL BE KILLED 🚨 Tilly is barely under 2 years old and already knows what it feels like to be forgotten. 💔 She was abandoned inside a home with another dog named Jasper, left behind without care. Now this sweet girl has ended up in a shelter where her time is almost gone. Tilly is very underweight, her body showing the neglect she’s endured… but her heart is still so full of love. Despite everything, Tilly greets people with a wagging tail and the sweetest personality. The moment you touch her, she rolls over for belly rubs and showers you with kisses. She just wants love — something she clearly hasn’t had enough of in her short life. 🐾 Under 2 years old 🐾 Very sweet and affectionate 🐾 Playful and loving 🐾 Rolls over for belly rubs 🐾 Loves giving kisses Tilly should be learning what it feels like to be safe, fed, and loved… not facing a countdown to death. She needs a hero immediately‼️. ⏳ Less than 48 hours to save her life. Please don’t let Tilly’s story end like this. She has so much love left to give.

Story
Millie is a smushy young pittie mix looking for her new home! This sweet kiddo likes to hit the trails to explore and sniff around, and loves to wrap it all up with some snacks and couch time with her people. Millie can be a bit reserved at first when making new friends, but warms up quickly and is looking for a patient family who can give an adopted dog some time to decompress in the new home.Millie`s a dog with a heart as big as her size, so her greetings can be a little on the rude side - potential adopters should be prepared to help her learn how to get someone`s attention without jumping on them! Lucklly she is a foodie, and loves to train using positive reinforcement methods.This sweet, smushy girl has been through a few transitions recently, and may need a gentle start, but once she feels secure, she’ll reward you with endless love and loyalty!
