Story
Meet Stewie! Born in a high kill shelter after his mother was found pregnant roaming the streets of Lousiana. Was brought to a shelter in Vermont where he then found a home in Boston. Was raised in Boston, where he went on many group walks with other dogs, making lots of friends and posing for pictures. He enjoys hikes, the beach, naps and affection from friends and loved ones. He is seeking a new home with an experienced owner, as he needs slow introductions with new people, as well as a structured daily schedule. He is completely house broken and would be best in a single family home without kids.

Story
Mozzi is a 2-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier who has been with me for about a year. I have to rehome him because he does not get along with my other dog.Mozzi is:• A sweet boy who loves belly rubs and cuddles• Great with kids and other people• Fond of stuffed animals, ropes, and playing fetch• Mostly home trained (though he sometimes has accidents)• Best suited for a home without other dogsMozzi is a very affectionate boy who gives lots of kisses and loves going for car rides. He enjoys sleeping in his own bed or right in bed with you. He does have separation anxiety and will cry or bark if left alone for a while, so he is looking for a loving home where he can feel safe and well taken care of.

Luna is a 5 year old pitbull who has been in our family for 4 years after we adopted her in FL! She loves car rides, hiking, playing fetch with her spaceship or playing with her ball. She has a lot of energy and love. She needs a person/family who can give her a lot of attention and love.Unfortunately, we have to re-home her as she has shown a lot of jealousy towards our new infant.

Mia

Belgian Shepherd

Female, Adult
Milton, MA
Size

Story
This sweet beautiful girl is ready to look for her forever home. Mia is a high-strung but very intelligent & loving 5-year-old Belgian shepherd. She's looking for a home with a fenced yard and no children under 12 years old. Ideal owner is experienced with shepherd breeds and committed to providing a structured home with training / enrichment time. Mia chases cars obsessively, so she's a major flight risk on leash walks and when not fully fenced. She is overstimulated by car rides, so she rides crated with a well-fitting muzzle. She is nicely housebroken but occasionally loses bladder control when excited. She takes sertraline as a daily upkeep med to manage anxiety. In addition, she snaps or bites when confronted with specific triggers: (1) when food is taken from near her, (2) when grooming tugs her fur unpleasantly, (3) when a car passes during a leash walk, and (4) when she is removed from a high-stimulation environment, ex: leashing up to leave a fenced park or walking.
