He’s a goofy, lovable 60-pound ham who charges into every day with confidence, charm, and just the right amount of chaos. He may be blind, but you’d never know it. Balin is looking for a home without small dogs or cats—he’s got a BIG personality and sometimes forgets just how big he is. He might be able to live with another dog, but it would need to be a calm, very patient buddy who can handle his enthusiastic greetings. Slow, structured introductions are a must.

After being abandoned at a vet clinic Jake was brought to Furry Friends to find a home that will love him for who he is. He loves treats and will do just about anything for a yummy snack. He appreciates a person who can take things a bit slow with him so you can learn to trust before showing his true personality, fun, energetic, and so so sweet.

Meatball

Boston Terrier

Male, 4 yrs 11 mos

West Des Moines, IA

Size

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

Details

Not good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

🐾 Meet Meatball! 🐾 Meatball is a Boston Terrier with a big personality and a lot of love to give to the right person. He thrives with people who are willing to build trust gradually through consistency, patience, training, and plenty of treats. Once comfortable, his previous owners shared that he enjoys cuddling, sunbathing, walks, and even licking feet—one of his more unique hobbies! Meatball is seeking an adult-only home, as children may not always recognize when he is feeling uncomfortable or needs space. He has previously done well with other small to medium-sized dogs and has a funny habit of trying to boss around larger dogs. In the home, Meatball has done well free-roaming, is potty trained, and strongly prefers not to be kenneled. He is looking for a committed adopter who understands that trust takes time and is willing to give him the stability and support he needs to succeed. Meatball is currently housed at our second location. If you are interested in meeting him, please contact us to schedule an appointment at: 📧 adoptions@furryfriendsrefuge.org
