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
Meet Bruno! This handsome guy has got a lot of love to give, and is on the hunt for a family to give it to. Bruno came to us as a stray, so we don’t know very much about his past, but in our care he has been a sweet and sensitive gentleman who’s enjoyed making friends at the shelter. He loves snuggles, snacks, and sniffy walks on the trails!Bruno would love to go with adopters who can help him settle in at his own pace and adjust back into the routine of living in a home. If you’re looking for a sweet and sensitive pup to bring excitement and a few snuggles into your life, than Bruno might just be the dog for you!

ARTHUR

Husky

Male, 3 yrs 6 mos
Centerville, MA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
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!

DUKE

Border Collie

Male, 3 yrs 1 mo
Centerville, MA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Duke is a sensitive sweetheart with a lot of love (and energy!) to bring to your life. Duke is still getting the hang of walking on leash, but so far he loves spending time in the great outdoors, be it sniffy hikes, playing fetch in the yard, or just zooming around and getting silly with his friends. Duke lived in a bubble in his previous home, meaning he wasn`t meeting a lot of new people or animals, and wasn`t going to a lot of new places. He`d be a great companion for an adopter in a lower-traffic environment, where he can work on building up his confidence when navigating new places, meeting new people, etc. Duke could potentially live with children who can follow his management plan.Duke seems interested in meeting other dogs, but doesn`t have a lot of practice doing so and has sometimes been worried or conflicted when meeting dogs while in our care. While Duke is continuing to learn about the world and working on building some dog social skills, he would do best as the only dog in the home, please!

BAYOU

English (Redtick) Coonhound

Male, 4 yrs 8 mos
Centerville, MA
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Do you love hounds and their fabulous personalities? How about a super friendly, slightly goofy big boy like Bayou? This very good boy is four years old and loves both people and other dogs! He`s a typical hound who has a classic bay, so adopters will have to both enjoy and have a sense of humor while he tells his stories. Bayou has separation anxiety and is looking for a home with a family who has people present more often than not, and would ideally love to go home with another dog to keep him company! A dog savvy cat is a possibility but will require a slow well managed introduction. Bayou has a positive history living with kids, too!
