Story
Annie is the sweetest most loving dog I’ve ever met and it breaks my heart that I have to rehome her due to not being able to afford her anymore. I rescued Annie 3 years ago whom was abandoned in Arkansas. I helped nurse her back to health, got her fully vaccinated and worked with specialists to help integrate her back into society. While Annie is selectively friendly with other dogs, she absolutely adores all babies, kids and humans. She is very athletic and loves walks and hikes as well as playing with toys. Annie would do best in household that has family members that works from home full time and enjoys being active.

He has been with us since he was 14 weeks old. He has been super fearful since before we got him , i have been trying to train he out of it but its just gotten worse. Fears men and aggressive teenagers but once he knows your safe he loves you always want you to pat him. Kids make him nervous he growls absolutely no kids, great on leash till he sees other dog.

Story
Oscar is such a sweet and very intelligent 6 months old Plott hound mix. We rescued Oscar from MSPCA Salem MA 1 month ago. Unfortunately, my daughter is allergic to Oscar fur. In order to keep Oscar my daughter would need to be on medication going forward which is not ideal. This is sad for us all, but we hope to find a sweet loving home for Oscar. If you are experienced dog owner who can also train him as he is still a pup that would be also great for him.

Story
Hi I'm Desert! I'm a 9 year old pup that loves to relax, cuddle, and be showered with kisses. I would rather stay in although I do enjoy sunbathing on porches. Dog parks are not really my thing and freak me out. My owners want to find me a good home as they can no longer take care of me. I would love to meet you to see if we get along!

Luca is an 8-year-old, sweet and loving boy who has been house-trained since we adopted him at 8 months old from North Carolina. He's healthy with no medical issue and makes a great house guard dog. Luca loves to cuddle and enjoys his walks, though he may bark when he sees other dogs. with a toddler now getting much of our attention, we are hoping to find Luca a new home with someone who can give him the time, love, and affection he truly deserves.

Harley

American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, Adult
Medford, MA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Harley is a loving, energetic girl who enjoys walks, outdoor time, and relaxing on the couch with her people. She bonds closely with her humans and does best with routine and structure. She is house trained, leash trained, and has basic manners training. She does well on walks and enjoys regular activity. Harley must be the only pet in the home. She becomes overstimulated around other animals and is not suited to living with dogs or cats. While she loves people, she would do best in a home without small children, as she can be excitable and does not always recognize her size. The ideal adopter will be home most of the day (retired, flexible schedule, or working from home) and experienced with dogs. Harley can become over-excited with new people, including jumping or zooming, and benefits from continued work on impulse control and anxiety with clear routines. In the right single-pet home, Harley will be a deeply affectionate and loyal companion.
