Story
She is 8 months the biggest lover girl ever, breaks my heart to give her away but my mom just moved into a smaller apartment which do not allow animals. She loves walks, playing, sleeping, and she love loves to eat. She is very well behaved sits, lays down, goes to bed, potty trained, and does paw all that. Id preferably like to rehome her somewhere I can visit her every once and a while but the main goal is finding her a forever home. Shes moved around a lot passed couple months and breaks my heart because shes such a great dog. Does amazing with people and other pets. She does need to be somewhere were shes able to be walked at least once a day or have a yard she can run in because she is very energetic but that honestly my only main concern that she's able to get her exercise and wont be crated a lot

Story
We got Rylee 4 years ago from a pet store in Rhode Island. He's 4 years old (7/2/2021). We're looking for him to be with someone with an outdoorsy lifestyle. An example could be a home with a farm setup or a good amount of land. Another example could be someone who hikes and walks often. Rylee is an active, high-energy dog. He loves to play and he loves people. He gets along with cats and children. He'll get along with a dog granted there's a proper introduction prior. He is cuddly and loves to be with his people. He's very loving, comforting, active, and would make a great farm or therapy dog with adequate training.

Story
Meet Drake, a 1.5-year-old yellow English Labrador Retriever. He is a loving, affectionate companion who enjoys car rides, cuddles, and watching movies. Drake is house and crate trained, willingly entering his crate with ease. He has a wonderful temperament with children and other dogs, and even helped a young girl overcome her fear of dogs. However, Drake has specific needs due to food aggression. He requires a home where he can be fed in total isolation. Because of this, we recommend a home with no other pets or young children between the ages of 0 to 12 years of age. While he is generally friendly, he must be strictly supervised around food and kept completely segregated from other animals during meal preparation and feeding times. He is also a "counter surfer" who will scout for snacks if left unattended. Drake is a loyal soul who wants nothing more than to love you to his core. We are seeking a dedicated owner who can provide the structured environment he needs to thrive.

Story
UPDATE!!! We recently found out that Miss Dumplin needs to be in house with another dog in order for her to keep thriving,please consider her.  This Sweet girl was found alone in ARK, our rescue partner in ARK took her in, What we know about her is she is very sweet, timid, loves people and is Shy when first meeting you. She is good with other dogs and kids.  I was found hiding under a porch, really really hungry and scared to death, but now I’m ready to find a family to call my own. Ready to open your heart and home to this sweet girl? Dumplin has come such a long way since arriving in MA. This shy, calm, and incredibly sweet girl is ready to find her forever home. Dumplin would do best in a home with another dog to help build her confidence. She doesn’t require much exercise and would be happiest with a fenced-in yard, as she can be fearful of new things. Dumplin is 18 months old, house broken and up to date on vaccinations. Apply to adopt : fromalonetohomerescue.org ##2516249##
