Story
Meet Ultra, a playful, high-energy boy with a heart full of love and a spirit thats as big as his personality! Though he`s a big guy, Ultra has the enthusiasm and joy of a puppy, always ready for fun and adventure. He`s on the lookout for a family who can keep up with his endless energy and provide both physical and mental challenges to keep him engaged. As he continues to grow, Ultra will benefit from guidance to help him refine his manners and make the most of his playful nature. While Ultra is a healthy, happy dog, he does have potential allergies and a mild heart murmur. His new family will need to be prepared to work with a veterinarian to manage and monitor these conditions, ensuring he stays as healthy as possible. Ultra would thrive in a home with a confident, steady adult dog who can tolerate his rowdy play style, and any children in the household should be comfortable with his big, bouncy personality and ready to join in his training journey. If you`re looking for a goofy, energetic companion who will keep you laughing and on your toes, Ultra might just be the perfect fit for your family! If you would like to learn more, stop by MSPCA at Northeast Animal Shelter. We have open adoption hours 11:30am-5pm daily - no appointment or application needed. Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat areas will remain open to walk through.

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 3 mos

Story
Meet Pam! This fun, happy-go-lucky girl is full of energy and ready to bring lots of joy into your life. For the first several few weeks, she`ll need time to decompress and settle in. It`s important to keep her world a little smaller as she gets comfortable with her new family. A patient adopter who is excited about positive reinforcement training will be the perfect fit to help Pam thrive and truly shine. We`re still getting to know her play-style, so slow introductions to social dogs are a must. If you have another dog at home, we recommend a meet-and-greet here at the shelter. If youre looking for a sweet, energetic pup to join your family, Pam might just be the one for you!
