Peggy (TN)

Chinese Crested

Female, Senior

Gilford, NH

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Say hello to darling little Peggy. Look at that face! That awesome hairdo! She came to us when her former owner passed away and she was brought to a shelter. Peggy is a senior girl, about 10 years old. She is looking for a quiet, peaceful home to enjoy her golden years (so no young kids, please). We don't know what her past life was like, but she has some fear issues and is going to require a patient adopter who will allow her time and space to get to know them. She loves just sleeping quietly beside you while you work or watch TV. She is hard to catch if there is something she doesn't want to do, such as going outside, so she needs a home with someone who can work with her on that. She also requires a fenced yard, as she tries to bolt when frightened. She is not a dog who wants to go out and about. She was absolutely terrified when she recently went to the vet, including in the car, so she just wants to stay home and enjoy the security of that. She gets extremely stressed in the car, so a home in close proximity to her foster home is needed. She does not like pesty dogs getting her space and will warn them, so a home with active dogs would not be a match, but a low-key, respectful older small dog would be fine. Peggy weighs about 12 lbs and she is hoping to find a home where someone is home a lot of the time. She will give you lots of snuggle time sitting close beside you on the couch in return. (Peggy is being fostered in TN)

Lily & Zeplin (Ohio)

Chinese Crested

Story

********** ADOPTION PENDING *************** Introducing Lily and Zeplin, a charming bonded pair of 9 year old Cresteds. Lily is the powderpuff girl and Zeplin is the hairless boy. They came to our rescue after a good Samaratin found them running loose down the middle of the road. She was able to locate the owner, who said the dogs were always escaping from the yard and she didn't want them anymore. So here they are, safe and sound! They absolutely MUST be adopted as a pair. We will not split them up, so don't ask. Zeplin is quite timid. He spent the first 3 weeks at his foster home on a chair under a blanket. He is slowly starting to come out of his shell and loves going outside with his person, while Lily prefers to follow you absolutely everywhere. She is the more outgoing of the two and is Zeplin's security blanket. When he had a vet appointment and she stayed home, they both got extremely upset and screamed to let us know they were not happy being apart! They both ride nicely in the car. They require a fenced yard, as they were used to running off at their former home, so they need a fence to be kept secure. Zeplin is housetrained, while Lily is still working on that skill, which will be an ongoing process. They are looking for a quiet, patient home that understands they will take a while to open up and blossom. They need a home without young kids, where someone is home a lot of the time. They are looking forward to finally being a treasured part of someone's life. (Lily & Zeplin are being fostered in northeastern Ohio)

Harley

Mutt

Male, Adult

Laconia, NH

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Harley is 7 years old. He is very high energy, very food driven. Super snuggler. He listens well, knows sit, lay down, stay, bed. He is house trained in that he doesn’t potty in the house, but we have been unsuccessful in crate training him. He has broken out of wire crates and FAA grade crates. We tried securing him in one room only which resulted is heavy destruction, we tried to let him free roam the house with doors shut and that worked for a while but he has since mastered unlocking and opening exterior doors and continued further destruction when left home alone. He needs a home that he’s not alone or someone who can give him the training he needs.

Ziti

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 4 yrs 2 mos

Concord, NH

Size

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

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Ziti is a sweet, affectionate dog who came to us as a stray, so we're still learning about his past. In the shelter, Ziti has shown himself to be a true love bug. He enjoys attention, seeks out affection, and loves to play. Ziti can be shy and cautious around men at first, but with patience, consistency, and kindness, he warms up and becomes much more confident. Outside of those initial moments, his playful and loving personality really comes through. Ziti has met several other dogs here at the shelter and has enjoyed playing with them. While his history with cats is unknown, any introductions to other animals should be slow, thoughtful, and well managed. Ziti would do best in a home that understands the importance of giving him time to build trust, especially in new situations. With a supportive environment and positive experiences, his confidence will continue to grow - and his affectionate nature will shine. If you're looking for a loving companion who just needs a little patience to show his best self, Ziti may be the perfect fit.

Sashi

Husky Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Male, 6 yrs 1 mo

Concord, NH

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Sashi is a friendly, outgoing boy who loves meeting new people and making friends wherever he goes. He’d prefer a home with older kids who can match his energy and give him the respectful space he needs to feel comfortable. Previously a farm dog, Sashi was trained to leave chickens and goats alone, but he still has a strong instinct to chase small animals, including cats, so he’ll need a cat-free home. He can also be selective with other dogs and may guard his favorite items, so he’d thrive as an only dog. With the right management and thoughtful introductions, he may be able to live with a compatible canine friend. Sashi knows some basic cues and is an absolute joy to walk, he’s polite on leash and always ready for an adventure. Whether it’s hiking, exploring, or enjoying the outdoors year-round, Sashi will be right by your side with a happy tail and a big smile. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share your adventures, Sashi is ready to meet you!

Guinness

Labrador Retriever

Male, 3 yrs 3 mos

Concord, NH

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Guinness is a truly striking boy with a big personality and an even bigger love for life. A self-proclaimed fetch professional (PhD included), he’s happiest when he’s outdoors chasing a ball, learning new skills, or enjoying one of his favorite things in the world, snacks. Especially snacks. Guinness has Canine Compulsive Disorder, which means he may spin when he’s feeling excited or stressed. While this is part of who he is, it doesn’t define him. With consistency, and clear guidance, Guinness does wonderfully and is able to focus and thrive. He’s hoping for a calm, structured home where he can be the only animal and enjoy some peaceful downtime. Guinness has previously lived with dog-savvy kids and could be a great fit again with the right family who understands and respects his needs. Highly food-motivated and eager to learn, Guinness is ready to bond with a patient, loving adopter who sees his spins as just a small piece of his very special, lovable whole. If you’re looking for a smart, loyal companion with plenty of heart (and ball skills), Guinness can’t wait to meet you.
