Story

Casper is a very active and rebel puppy, very high in energy and attitude as most Corgis, we currently live in an Apartment and we've noticed he's not quite happy here, he needs more space and more attention from his human companion, he is loved but we are also realistic and are trying to find what's better for him. He's very cuddly, sweet and sassy. He's been with us for a year now, we've had trouble training him due to lack of time, we both work a lot and Casper also doesn't get along with our child who is 11y old even when they've been living together for so long. We just want Casper to be happy and find a better home for himself, a family who would truly give him the attention he needs and are able to train him correctly. We got him from a Breeder, he is pure bred and his health is up to date, neutered and partially potty trained. He also got his rabies vaccine on January 2nd 2026. He is microchipped and registered with AKC. Adoption Fee is non-negotiable.

Story

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: Unknown, likely yesGood with kids: YesCrate trained: MostlyHouse trained: YesSay hello to Piper, a kind-hearted pup with a gentle soul and a ton of love and affection to offer the world. Piper may start off a little shy, taking things slow as she gets to know new people and build trust. Once she feels safe, her sweet, affectionate personality truly shines — and she’ll reward you with unwavering loyalty, lots of love, and plenty of kisses.She’s great with other dogs, loves playing with her foster siblings, and greets new dogs calmly and respectfully. She’s also wonderful with kids (ages 5 and up), approaching them tenderly, quickly becoming their favorite snuggle buddy. Piper has met a few cats outdoors and seems indifferent, though her experience with them is limited. Piper would thrive in a patient, loving home that understands her shy side and gives her the space she needs to blossom.At home, Piper is fully housetrained. She's mostly crate-trained, going in easily for a treat and settling within a few minutes. She doesn’t mind spending some time alone but is equally happy being right near her humans. She walks beautifully on a leash, even though she’s still gaining experience, and loves going for easy walks with her foster family. When she’s not showing off her good-girl behavior, she enjoys squeaky toys, peanut butter treats (her favorite!), and romping around with her dog friends.Looking for a loving, live-in companion that will treat you like gold? Piper’s your girl - one wag of her tail and you’ll be sold!Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line.

Harley Memphis

Labrador Retriever Pit Bull Terrier

Boston, MA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Adoptable in: MAGood with dogs: Yes, with proper introsGood with cats: NoGood with kids: Older children only (16+)Crate trained: YesHouse trained: YesHarley Memphis is a sweet, loyal, sensitive soul who is looking for a patient and loving family to live out his golden years. He recently underwent two major surgeries and is looking for a home that will continue to meet his unique medical needs. Although he has some physical limitations, he does not let this bring him down and is enjoying his life to the fullest!A few of Harley’s favorite things include snuggling with his humans, going for short walks, zoomies in small spaces, and spray cheese! Due to his mobility issues, Harley would do best in a home with minimal stairs and that has carpeting as he sometimes slips on hardwood floors. He would love a home with lots of soft dog beds, as he is unable to jump onto furniture. He does well with new dogs after proper introductions, but should have monitored interactions with other dogs, especially when approached from behind, until he feels more confident. Harley is currently thriving in his foster home and does best with structure and boundaries. He has met cats and would do best in a cat-free home as he is a bit too interested in his feline friends. Harley has met children and would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy teens (16+) who will respect his personal space and not make sudden, loud noises or movements. Harley is fully house and crate trained. Harley enjoys having his crate door open so he can come and go as he pleases. He rotates through his crate and his favorite dog beds when his foster is at work. Harley enjoys going for short walks around the neighborhood and walks well on leash. Harley is looking for a quiet family who will provide him with structure, love, and support so he can live a life of leisure!Note: Harley is part of our Foster to Adopt (FTA) program for prescription medication.Please Note: All dogs are posted until they are officially adopted.

Poe

Catahoula Leopard Dog

Male, Adult

Boston, MA

Size

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

Details

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

Story

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: Yes, dog-savvy catsGood with kids: Yes, dog-savvy childrenCrate trained: YesHouse trained: MostlySay hello to Poe!This stunning sweetheart will steal your heart the moment you gaze into his two-toned brown and blue eyes. His unique coloring and striking markings make him truly one of a kind. Poe’s early life was filled with uncertainty, so he can be a little slow to adjust to new environments. But his gentle timidness never reflects the way he feels about people. Poe lives to love. He’s a dedicated cuddle bug, a loyal companion, and a dog who wants nothing more than to bond deeply with his people.Poe thrives in the company of other dogs and would likely do best in a home with a confident canine friend. Having another dog around helps him learn, grow, and continue building his confidence. He has previously lived with a cat and was very respectful. While he hasn’t spent time around children, he could do well with kids who enjoy cuddling and understand the importance of gentle, patient introductions.Poe is making wonderful progress with his training and is almost fully potty trained, with only an occasional accident. He would do best in a home where someone is around frequently—such as a work-from-home household—so he can have regular opportunities to go outside while he continues building consistency. Poe is crate trained and may briefly let you know he’d rather be with his people, but he settles in quickly. He walks calmly on a leash and is a pleasant companion on outings, though he may appreciate a little extra reassurance in busy or high-traffic areas.Poe is searching for a patient, understanding home that will give him the time and encouragement he needs to feel safe and confident. In return, he promises unwavering devotion, endless snuggles, and a lifetime of love.Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted.
