Raynham, MA

Size

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

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bandit is a one year old golden retriever. He is a sweet boy who loves cuddling and affection. He loves to play fetch and be goofy. He would be best in a home with no kids, as he is jumpy when excited. He has not been neutered yet but it should make him more calm. He has had basic training but he needs a bit more training for his leash pulling. Besides his leash pulling, he is amazing dog. He is crate trained and very obedient. With work and family, I don’t have enough time in the day to keep up with him. He is up to date on his shots and we are hoping to find him his forever home asap. Please contact (xxx) xxx-xxxx . Thank you.

Friendly Freya

Olde English Bulldogge

Female, Young

East Taunton, MA

Size

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

Details

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

Story

Freya is almost 3 years old, we have had her since she was a puppy. Between full time work, two young rambunctious boys, everything else, and caring for a dog, many days are nothing short of overwhelming. Freya is loveable, patient, protective, playful, and very friendly with people- especially kids. She successfully graduated puppy training school, walks well on a leash, is crate trained, rings bells when she needs to go out to the bathroom, and is house broken- see isn’t she lovely! She responds to her name, can sit, stay, lay down, jump up, rolls over, and gives paw. ✅ We think she would do best with a family who has older kids (10+) and perhaps not with elderly folks (she has been surrounded by kids aged 2 and up her entire life). Like her name suggests, Freya is the Goddess of Love and War, she is really sweet and strong but could knock someone down accidentally while playing. ✅ Bonus if you have a home with a fenced in backyard. This would make life 1000x easier.

Story

Violet is a sweet dog, but she is competitive dog Aggressive. She has to be in a home without a dog. She only a year and a half old and the vet recommended not spaying her until she was two so she could get to her full growth potential. She is fine when she loves people and cats and she is crate trained. She will come with AKC papers and microchip info. She is fine with kids. She is fine on the leash and will stay inside a sturdy fence she has walked through electrical fence backyards. She loves to play and loves toys. She is also pretty lazy loves to lie next to humans on the couch. We are devistated we have to rehome her but we have to think of our older dog safety.

Details

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

Story

Hammond aka Archie is a 2.5 year catahoula leopard mix with lots of puppy energy left in him. He absolutely loves walks and running zoomies around a fenced in backyard. He loves to play fetch with a ball outside or tug of war with his toys inside. He will bring toys to you to let you know he wants some attention. He loves other dogs. Is always happiest at the dog park. With cats, he isn’t great. He has a bit of a chase drive with them. He is completely house trained and crate trained (loves his crate actually). He still needs some more work with other house etiquette (likes his bed but prefers the couch). Hammond aka Archie is such a good boy. A fun dog who loves kids, loves his people. He is up for a car ride adventure, a hike in the woods, some peanut butter on a spoon and a cuddle on the couch. He is located in Framingham, MA and he is looking for a foster home, or even better would be a forever home.

Story

I’m Audreyanne. I’m estimated to be about 4 and a half months old. The vet said I’m possibly a cur mix because of my coloring but my foster mom thinks I’m more basset hound than cur. I weigh about 19 pounds as of 1/25/24, I have longer floppy ears, short legs, and a long body. I also have the softest fur. My foster dad thinks I’m the absolute cutest (and he doesn’t say that often). I absolutely love to be held and give lots of kisses. I was found with my brother who is my absolute BEST friend, but I do love other animals as well. I’m up to date on all vaccinations and have been spayed. I’m just waiting with my brother for my forever home. Adoption fee details: Puppies - Adults $ 610 Adoption rates include transport from Alexandria, Louisiana to designated New England adopter pick up locations and NE foster homes using either Mighty Mutts Shipping, Rescue Road Trips, Pets LLC or CAFA Transport.
