Story
Meet Oakley, a Great Pyrenees whose heart is as big as his size!This gentle giant has spent his life outdoors, and so will need some time and patience to adjust to living indoors. Living in a home is going to be a big transition for him, but he is sure to reward your efforts with plenty of tail wags and kisses! If you`re patient, loving, and ready to give this sweet boy the time and care he needs to settle in, he would love to be apart of your home! Oakley would do best as the only dog in the home while he is settling in and adjusting to living indoors.If you think this dog could be a good match for you and would like to learn more, stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center to speak with our staff about him.

Story
This handsome fella is Arthur, a 3 year old Husky with a heart of gold. Arthur’s a pretty shy guy, as he was not regularly meeting strangers or other dogs in his previous home. He can be worried and uncertain of the world around him, but with patience and a gentle approach to training, he is learning that the world is not so scary. Arthur is looking for an adopter who can help him continue to grow and learn in a calm, low-traffic environment, meaning not a lot of activity, cars, or people coming and going. He is still working on becoming housetrained and on refining some of his manners, but has made some really great progress with his leash walking skills using positive reinforcement training!(Arthur loves snacks and is very smart, so he`s a great training buddy!). Arthur does best with slower introductions to neutral dog friends, so he could potentially go to a home with a mellower dog to help show him the ropes. Given patience and time to settle in at his own pace, Arthur is sure to reward you with endless love and loyalty. Come on down to learn more about him today!

Story
MEET REMI! This wonderful, super sweet and loving pup is ready for her forever! REMI LOVES her humans. She is great in the home. She is good on the leash. Very friendly and sweet! REMI's ideal home would be one that LOVES big dogs! (she is about 86 lbs), LOVES this breed and is experienced with it. She can be with other dog or dogs (intros always needed), but would also be fine as solo. **Adult only or a home with kids over 12**. We believe REMI to be blue lilac tricolored XL Bully ... but who cares? She's gorgeous! REMI is about 11 months old and weighs approximately 86 lbs. She is UTD on vaccinations and spayed. Have questions? Want a visit? Please contact reboundhounds@gmail.com & her escue will get right back to you, thanks! REMI IS IN PORTER CORNERS, NY

Story
My friends describe me as: friendly, affectionate, chillMeet Audrey!Audrey is a fan favorite of ours here at our Brewster/Cape Cod branch- we can hardly figure out why no one has scooped up this hidden gem! She`s an adorable small but mighty three year old bully mix that thrives on snuggling and giving lots of kisses! She is already house trained and crate trained!! She spends a lot of time in her bed getting her beauty sleep. While she still loves to go on walks and run around the yard, she will let you know when she is ready to go back inside. Audrey enjoys being around other dogs but isn`t a fan of playing with them. She`s happy walking alongside other dogs on a fun social walk or hike. With her small but strong stature she is ready for any adventure! Audrey experienced professional dog training that affected her ability to trust other dogs especially when she is on a leash so she is now learning to rebuild that trust and has done extremely well in our care. She is looking for an adopter that will continue that learning which is so easy and fun - we will show you how to practice and you`ll see just how happy she gets when going on walks! Audrey would like to be the only dog in the home and if you live in urban, residential living she may be overwhelmed when running into lots of other dogs while on leash just going out to potty or for a long walk. Either way though we know she will step to the plate and work really hard to be the most well behaved and lovable little character you`ve ever met so please consider coming by our Cape Cod Branch to meet this little munchkin!Audrey is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed, microchipped and seen by our vet team.We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY however, we are unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.For more information on this or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston please visit us during our adoption center hours: Wednesdays-Sundays from 1:00PM – 6:00PM, Tuesdays by appointment only from 1:00PM – 6:00PM, closed Mondays & Holidays.For information about our adoption process click here
