Story

Rex is an 8-year old, very energetic pitbull. He was adopted at 8 weeks old in Massachusetts. He is a sweet boy who loves intensely. This can cause him to have big feelings in the house. He has separation anxiety and would need an owner who is willing to put in the time to work with him. He loves to run around and be around his people. We can no longer take care of Rex. His ideal home would have someone who is willing to work with him to work on his outside manners as well as his anxiety. He is a very sweet dog who loves attention and play. Recent events have made it not possible for our family to care for Rex anymore. He would be a great dog for any owner who is willing to put in the effort to work with him.

Jules

Mutt

Male, Adult

Wellesley, MA

Size

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

Details

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

Story

Jules is a fun loving goof ball who loves nothing more in life than chasing his orange rubber ball all day long. He is more of a people dog than a dog, dog and is soon to be 10 years old but has the energy of a 5 year old. His place as king of the household has changed with two young sisters now running around and sadly he cares so much about them that he howls/whines every time they cry. He would be much happier to have another house to himself so he can chase his ball in peace.

Special Needs

Arlo

Carolina Dog Husky

Male, Adult

Needham, MA

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Arlo is a sweet 3 year old dog. He is intelligent, playful and sometimes goofy. He loves his basketball and will bop it with his nose to keep it rolling and chasing it or pick it up and goof around. He has a good disposition and has been well behaved with other dogs. Right now he goes to daycare twice a week and has done very well. He would thrive in an active environment. A farm or home with a backyard and a playmate would be ideal. Arlo has separation anxiety so he would need an experienced adopter who can be with him the first few weeks to work with him on staying alone. So far I haven't found anything that rattles him, he has not been bothered by fireworks, wheel chairs or sudden loud noises. He is curious and friendly his ears are usually pinned flat against his head when greeting you. The adopter will have to be able to afford to properly care for Arlo. If the right person comes along we can re-address the fee. Thank you.

LOKI

American Staffordshire Terrier

Male, 4 yrs 2 mos

Boston, MA

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

The God of mischief himself- Loki! Except this squishy faced cutie isn`t all that mischevious. He`s a strong gentle giant that enjoys meeting new people and going on walks. While he means well, his strength can sometimes cause a bit of mischeif- perhaps pulling on leahs while excited or jumping up to greet new friends! With some proper training using positive reinforcement, we can turn this sweet boy into the perfect gentleman. He`s dreaming of a nice quiet oasis to call his home. Unfortunately for this boy, he does have some ongoiong skin issues that will require some support from a veterinarian. That doesn`t take away from his good looks though- look at that face! Loki would prefer a home and a lifestyle that does not involve other dogs- he wants to be the one and only! If you think this guy could be a match for you, please come meet him!

Story

Fiona is a sweet, spirited dog who just needs a little time to feel comfortable. She can be nervous when meeting new people, but once she knows you, she absolutely loves getting pets and attention.

Fiona is more than happy to curl up and enjoy a good nap.
