Story
Meet Jax! Jax is a lovable, cuddly boy with a heart as big as his paws. This gentle giant adores being close to his people—whether that means curling up to sleep beside you at night or happily relaxing in his crate while you’re away. One of his favorite things in the world is going for car rides, especially if they end with treats… which brings us to another of Jax’s true loves: food! Treats and mealtime make him extra happy, though he does have a funny (and mischievous) habit of snacking on paper if left alone, so a little supervision goes a long way. Jax is playful and fun, with a big love for frisbees, squeaky toys, and balls. Jax has lived with another dog before, but doesn't seem to enjoy making new dog friends and is not a fan of cats, so he should be your only furry companion. Jax is house trained and crate trained. He’s lived with children in the past and has shown himself to be incredibly gentle and sweet, making him a wonderful family companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate dog who’s equal parts cuddle buddy and playful pal, Jax might just be your perfect match. Ready to Adopt?

Story
Kobe is a handsome husky with a big personality—true to his breed, he loves to “talk” and let you know exactly what’s on his mind! He’s a social, friendly guy who enjoys leaning into his people for pets and attention. Kobe absolutely loves being outside and would be thrilled with a home where he can run around the yard, explore, and burn off some energy. Toys are another favorite of his, and he’s always up for some playtime. He has lived well with another dog in the past and has done well meeting dogs here at the shelter, but we do recommend meet-and-greets with any resident dogs to make sure everyone is a good match. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, talkative husky who’s ready to be your adventure buddy, Kobe might just be your perfect match! Ready to Adopt?

Story
Like his namesake, Poseidon is strong, powerful, and full of personality… but instead of ruling the seas, this handsome guy rules the toy bin and your couch. Poseidon came to us from animal control, so we don’t know much about his past, but we do know he’s the goofiest, most playful, fun-loving boy around. Poseidon loves to run, play, and show off his impressive zoomies, then switch gears and become a total cuddle bug who’s all about couch time, pets, and affection. He’s a strong, active guy who would love a home that enjoys playtime as much as he does. He’s also a dedicated toy enthusiast—especially when it comes to chewing—so a good supply of sturdy chew toys will definitely keep this king happy and his kingdom intact. Because Poseidon has been attacked by another dog in the past, he can be understandably nervous meeting new dogs and would prefer to be the only dog in the home, where he can feel safe, relaxed, and soak up all the attention for himself. If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, goofy companion who’s equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle champion, Poseidon might just be the ruler your home has been waiting for. Ready to Adopt?

Story
Meet Bruce, a 2-year-old Foxhound mix who is truly as handsome as he is lovable. He came to us from our friends at Northampton Animal Control with glowing reviews for his charming personality, and he has lived up to every one of them. Bruce greets each day—and every dog and person he meets—with a big, happy tail wag and a bright, joyful spirit. His foster mom says he is a total sweetie who is doing well with her kids, cats, and other dog. She says he's a "great dog! He loves to have soft toys in his mouth and carries them around...he loves to be cuddled on your lap on the couch." Bruce loves to play fetch, enjoys a good snuggle, and has a wonderfully sweet and gentle nature. He’s quiet, smart, and an all-around easy companion who seems to fit in wherever he goes. His affectionate personality and friendly demeanor make him a joy to spend time with. Bruce does have significant skin allergies that will require lifelong treatment and preventative care to keep him comfortable and healthy, so a vet reference is required for his adoption. If you’re ready to provide ongoing medical care and are looking for a loyal, loving best friend, Bruce may be your perfect match. Ready to Adopt?

Story
Ramona is a smart, loving and great with kids, one year old puppy. Needs a new home and ideally it will be an active and loving environment. It would be best as the only pet in the household as she does not get along well with other dogs in the home. A small rehoming fee so serious inquiries only.
