Story
Hendrix is very well trained by me. He very playful when petted and very protective when comfortable with you. Haven't had the time to care for him due to work and not living with him. He’s like a baby, especially when he sees other dogs, he wants to interact and play. Cooperates and listens to commands with treats as all dogs would. I’ve had him since he was a puppy. He also has areas where fur is missing due to allergies.

Story
Lucky is the most soft-hearted little soul, gentle and sweet just like a baby. He loves going on adventures and exploring the world around him, sniffing every corner with pure curiosity and excitement. More than anything, Lucky loves people — he lights up around humans and just wants to be close, soaking up all the love and attention he can get. He’s super needy in the most adorable way, always following along, wanting cuddles, and making sure he’s never too far from the ones he loves. His tender heart and affectionate nature make him truly special. 🐾💛 Lucky is not a guard dog, he can go with anyone! But need someone that’s have experience with GSD!!

Story
Benny is a 5 year old Great Pyrenees mix with a good, sweet nature. He is very mellow and enjoys walks, napping in sun spots on the floor, and chewing on his stuffed toys. Benny is house trained, crate trained, leash trained, and place trained and is very responsive to commands (place, crate, come, let's go, etc). A quick learner! He has limited experience living with young children or other dogs and would be happiest in a home without either. We look forward to introducing you to Benny!

Queenie

Australian Cattle Dog

Dorchester, MA

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
We adopted Queenie 5 years ago. She was found abandoned on a street corner in TX and brought to MA by a rescue. She is sweet, energetic, and loves human attention and our yard. She bonds strongly to her people and thrives with routine and predictability. She may jump up when greeting new people. Queenie has resource guarding tendencies and can be defensive around food and sometimes personal space. She may growl or nip as a warning. Dog conflicts have occurred like when another dog rushes up and barks at her. She has bitten someone only when physically interrupted during a dog conflict. She lives with a 5-year-old and has had no issues. She had TPLO surgery 8/25 fully recovered.She is dog selective and has done well staying with friends with an energetic dog and dogs at family events. The dynamic w/ our reactive Yorkie has increased tension in the home. She would do best with a calm, well-matched dog or an experienced owner who can provide clear expectations and consistent boundaries.

Randolph, MA

Story
Nyx is a shelter puppy from MSPCA 3 months old. She is a mix breed, MSPCA list her as Australian Cattle Dog but most likely she is a lab/hound/acd mix. Caught up on her vaccines. Looking to re-home Nyx due to upcoming busy work/school schedule. Was unable to find a sitter for her for an upcoming month long trip. She is a regular puppy with no known behavioral or medical issues. She gets a little bit nervous at new experiences. Likes to cuddle. Food demon. Would prefer a person with a supporting partner or fellow dog to adopt her. She is fairly active and needs at least 1vhr of exercise a day. Still need to be house trained.
