Story

Meet Mitzy! Mitzy made the long journey from Puerto Rico to Massachusetts in hopes of finding the loving forever home she deserves. She and her brother were sadly abandoned near a beach in Puerto Rico, but thanks to some caring rescuers, Mitzy was given a second chance at a happy life. At just around 6 months old, Mitzy is a young pup with lots of love and energy to share. She’s full of personality and is an endlessly playful companion who enjoys making the most out of every day. Whether she’s romping around the yard, playing with her toys, or bouncing around with her dog friends, Mitzy always seems to be having fun. Mitzy absolutely loves spending time with both people and other dogs. She’s sweet, social, and would likely do well in a home where she can continue to play, explore, and burn off some of that happy puppy energy. After a good play session, she’s more than happy to soak up some attention and affection from her humans. Mitzy is ready to leave her past behind and start the next chapter of her life with a family who will give her the love, care, and fun-filled adventures she deserves. If you think this playful girl might be the perfect match for your home, be sure to fill out an application!Mitzy has joined our extended stay club, meaning her fee has been reduced in hopes to find her forever home!Apply today at: capeannanimalaid.org/dogapp

Story

Meet Buddy! This big, lovable guy is around 3 years old and has a heart to match his size. Buddy is currently thriving in foster care at Tide Pool Pet Services, where he has been learning all kinds of great skills and showing everyone just how special he is. He has been successfully crate trained, is building wonderful manners, and has proven to be an easy and enjoyable companion to have around. Buddy is charming, sweet, and a total social butterfly, truly everybody’s best friend, with a waggy tail and a bubbly personality that brings a happy energy wherever he goes. He is dog neutral and people neutral, able to coexist calmly while still enjoying being part of the action, whether that is time spent outdoors, exploring, or simply relaxing with his people. Buddy is happiest when he can be near his humans and included in the day to day, and he has done especially well with the structure and routine he has been building in foster care. He will do best with an adopter who is excited to continue that routine and support his ongoing training so he can keep feeling his best. To help set him up for success, his foster team is offering one month of one-on-one training support for his adopter and will remain a resource along the way. If you are looking for a big, affectionate, well mannered companion and are ready to continue helping him thrive, Buddy may be your perfect match.

Lohara

Labrador Retriever

Female, 5 mos

Gloucester, MA

Size

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

Details

Story

Meet Lohara! This sweet girl is from Puerto Rico, and has been in our care since February. She’s had a rough start on her journey to find her forever home, when she arrived we noticed she was becoming lethargic and unwell. We later found out that she had Acute Renal Failure, caused by the bacteria leptospirosis. She has since been treated and is now doing much better, because of this she is considered a special needs adoption. She was in isolation for a while after falling ill, causing her to become nervous and shy, but always very lovely. Since recovery she has started to gain some confidence - though still learning. She’s looking for a loving home where she can discover all the happiness and joys that life has to offer. A home with a confident dog to show her the ropes would be great, but being the sole star of your heart is okay by her as well. Adopt today!Apply for Lohara at: capeannanimalaid.org/dogapp
