Story
Billie is a smushy young pittie mix looking for her new home! This sweet kiddo likes to hit the trails to explore and sniff around, and loves to wrap it all up with some snacks and couch time with her people. Bille can be a bit reserved at first when making new friends, but warms up quickly and is looking for a patient family who can give an adopted dog some time to decompress in the new home. Billie has had a hard time meeting dogs in her short life, so she would prefer to be the only dog of the family!Billie`s a dog with a heart as big as her size, so her greetings can be a little on the rude side - potential adopters should be prepared to help her learn how to get someone`s attention without jumping on them! Luckily she is a foodie, and loves to train using positive reinforcement methods.This sweet, smushy girl has been through a few transitions recently, and may need a gentle start, but once she feels secure, she’ll reward you with endless love and loyalty!

Story
Meet Bambi! This fun loving, pint-sized girl came to us on a transport from a shelter out of state so we don`t know much about her history. What we have found is that she loves to play with her toys and is super snuggly once her needs have been met. We know that she would do best with an adopter who can provide her with some structure and a gentle approach to training while she catches up on her manners. Stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center to learn more about this silly girl!

Story
Meet Huey! Huey is an eager learner who has been through severaltransitions in his short life. We`ve learned a lot about him and skills heis currently working on with our team, so he is looking for a patient ownerto help them master manners, polite greetings, leash skills, and puppybasicstraining together will be a fun and rewarding journey!His favorite things are training or sniffy walks, people, learning newthings, and once he`s had time to get his zoomies out, some calm settlingtime with people. Huey is a happy, bouncy, and super wiggly pup, lookingfor a family to bring endless joy! Huey loves to play and is full ofenergy, and would make a great companion for a hiker, runner, or just anadmirer of the great outdoors. Huey has enjoyed interacting with other dogshere at the shelter, but is still learning how to do so! We think theymight do well with a canine sibling that likes to romp and play as much asthey do, with management around their introduction.
