Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

It breaks my heart to do this; I no longer have the time that Valentina deserves. She is a beautiful, active, and very lovable German Shepherd who needs a home where she can receive the attention, exercise, and care she needs.Valentina is house-trained and does well in the home. She does need professional training, especially with leash walking, and she can sometimes become overly excited and difficult to manage. However, she is a sweet, playful, and affectionate dog who loves people and has so much potential with the right owner.We are looking to rehome her as soon as possible to a loving family or individual who can provide her with the time, training, and care that she deserves. If you think you can give Valentina a forever home, please reach out for more information.

Runrún

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, Puppy

Revere, MA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Needs experienced adopter,

Story

Runrún is a sweet young boy from a litter of five puppies who are now about 8–9 months old. We have loved and cared for them since birth and hoped to find each one a wonderful home, but they have been overlooked because of their breed. They deserve to be known for their individual personalities—not judged by a label. This is a very difficult decision for our family. We love them deeply, but caring for this many dogs has become more than we can responsibly manage. We want our puppy to have the attention, training, exercise, and love she deserves. We are looking for a patient, committed adopter who understands that bringing home a young dog is a lifelong responsibility. Our greatest wish is for her to be safe, loved, and treated as part of the family. Please consider giving this beautiful girl the chance she deserves.

Lucy

Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier

Female, Young

Revere, MA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained,

Story

I named Lucy after the song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. She was a precious little girl and very attached to me. She just turned 1 year old in May 2026 so she's still very young and full of curiosity and love. My dog had a litter of 2 puppies and she was one of them. The other, a boy I had found a home for very fast through a friend. I also had more time off from work at that time so I thought taking on another dog would be ok but now I have to take care of my mother with dementia. She's a VERY good girl! Very smart and quirky. House trained and easy going, does not pull on the leash or bark at other dogs. Would love to find a loving home for her. She deserves that. Please send a message if interested or if you have any questions!

Neo

Mastiff

Male, Adult

Revere, MA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Neo is about 4 years old and is a Mastiff mix. I’ve had him since he was 2 months old after a friend’s dogs had an unexpected litter, and he has been raised in a loving home his entire life. Neo is a big, sweet boy who loves being close to his person. He can be skittish around new people and situations and needs a little time to warm up, but once he feels comfortable, he is incredibly affectionate and loyal. He loves relaxing around the house, being near his people, and sleeping in bed with me every night. Neo is completely house trained and has completed several weeks of professional training. He is extremely strong and still pulls on the leash, so he needs someone capable of handling a large dog. His ideal home would be with someone patient who will give him time to adjust and build trust. Neo is up to date on vaccinations, receives Simparica Trio monthly, has yearly veterinary checkups, has no special medical needs, and is not neutered. He is the sweetest boy you'll ever meet.

Mr. Wick

Revere, MA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Mr. Wick is a 5-year-old rescue from Bulgaria who I rescued when he was just 3 months old. He has been a loving and loyal part of our family ever since. He is affectionate, playful, alert, and loves being around his people. He enjoys attention, playing tug of war, relaxing on the couch, and sitting by the window keeping watch on the neighborhood. He also enjoys walks, but he is strong and tends to pull on the leash, so he needs someone comfortable handling him. Mr. Wick is completely house trained and is excellent about letting you know when he needs to go outside. He has also had several weeks of professional training and has no special needs that I am aware of. Mr. Wick would do best with someone who considers pets part of the family and can give him plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, receives Simparica Trio monthly for heartworm, flea, and tick prevention, and has regular yearly veterinary checkups.
