Story

Puppy (approximately 63 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. This gentle giant is really just a big ol' baby. He loves everyone that he meets and he is so charming that the feeling is always mutual. Puppy is always ready to get some snuggle time with his people, but if you want to take a walk or play some fetch, he's ready for that as well! Puppy lived with children & dogs in his previous home, and his former owners said that he got along very well with both species. He did very well in doggie play groups at his TN shelter, and he has been excellent in his interactions with other dogs when here with us. This big handsome boy deserves a wonderful fur-ever home filled with all the love he's been waiting for. If you can help him out with this, please come & meet Puppy today!If you'd like to meet Puppy and all his friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed).

Story

Lila (approximately 37 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. Lila is a little lovebug who greatly dislikes the hustle & bustle of the shelter. She is ADORES human beings and loves to cuddle with her favorite people. Our precious little princess could use some confidence building for sure! Lila did very well with the other dogs that she was introduced to at her previous shelter, and we feel that she may benefit from a home with a confident adult dog to show her how to "dog" properly. This sweet girl really shines when she gets out of her kennel and spends time with people. She is a huge fan of belly rubs, and snuggling seems to be her top activity. Come meet Lila & make her dreams come true - she is SO ready for her fur-ever home!If you'd like to meet Lila and all her friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed). Have questions? Call (603) 772-2921 ext. 110 or email info@nhspca.org today. Primary Color: Black Brindle Secondary Color: White Weight: 16.8 Age: 0yrs 11mths 0wks

Story

Buffy (approximately 39 pounds) was transferred to the NHSPCA from an overcrowded shelter in Tennessee. Her blue eyes are show-stoppingly gorgeous, and her sweet & affectionate personality will keep you coming back for more. Buffy is not a fan of the hustle and bustle of shelter life - she has been a calm & quiet lady during her time with us, and it is very clear that she cannot wait to find a home of her own. Buffy loves to relax with her favorite humans, and cuddling on the couch is listed as one of her top activities. She would love to snuggle and watch some Netflix! She is listed as a Husky/Shepherd mix but we see some Hound behaviors in this girl - another top favorite activity is sniffing everything she possible can while out for a walk. Buffy was introduce to dogs at her previous shelter and did well with them, and she has been friendly towards the other dogs she has encountered while here with us. Come meet our blue-eyed beauty & take her out for a walk - she'll love you forever if you provide her with a sniffari (a sniffing safari 😉).If you'd like to meet Buffy and all her friends at the New Hampshire SPCA, please visit our Adoption Center during our open hours: 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. every day except Wednesdays (closed).

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Fuse’s journey started in Georgia as a public drop-off, and when we reached out to his owner, they decided to surrender him. Now, he’s ready for a fresh start in Northern New England and a family to call his own. Fuse is a 3-year-old rottweiler who is a little head shy but he likes people and gets along great with other dogs—so if you’ve got a pup at home, he’d be thrilled to have a buddy! If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who just needs a little patience and a lot of love, Fuse is your guy! Fuse arrives in late January!
