Story
We got Tilly as a rescue a while back when we had a huge house with a big yard. Now we live in a small apartment and it's just not working out as we hoped. She loves people but takes a little while to warm up to dogs if she's on-leash. Great inside the fence at dog parks!

Story
Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: Unknown, likely noGood with kids: YesCrate trained: YesHouse Trained: YesBrutus is a good-natured, happy go lucky guy who is embracing all life has to offer. He is a medium energy boy who loves to start his day with a nice walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard.Brutus absolutely loves being part of a family, and basks in his human’s affection. He's happy to join his family for any activity whether it be a walk or sleeping on the floor while his family is watching a movie, he's there. He loves hearing that he is a “good boy” and happily accepts all the pets and kisses. With his playful nature Brutus adores children, especially when they want to play with him or give him lots of love and hugs. He would do best in a home with school aged children as he is a big boy, with an even bigger heart. Brutus enjoys playing with dogs of all shapes, ages and sizes, which makes him the perfect candidate for doggy daycare.Brutus is fully house and crate trained. He enters his crate on command, with the help of a tasty treat and sleeps all night without a peep. When his foster family goes to work he happily enjoys a frozen treat or gnaws on a bone in his crate until his family returns. Brutus is a fast learner and has already mastered a plethora of commands in his foster home including (but not limited to): sit, rest, heel, crate, etc and even knows his release word “free”.   Brutus loves going for walks with his family and heels on his handler’s left side. If he gets distracted he quickly redirects and looks to his humans for guidance. Brutus has excellent house manners and would fit into any family that is ready to shower this big ole teddy bear with all the love and affection.Could Brutus be the missing piece to complete your family?Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website. If you cannot find a particular dog on our website, he/she may be on a temporary foster hold. All dogs are otherwise posted until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application.July 26, 2024, 1:55 am

Story
Ellie is about 6 years old. She would do well in a home with a dog or cat. She's very energetic and intelligent. She loves meeting new dogs, going for long walks, and running around the yard. Her favorite way to play is with a tug toy. Ellie knows the commands Sit, Stay, Heel, Come, Down, and Go to Crate. She heels on the right side. Indoors she will reliably follow commands. Outdoors she will tend to follow her nose, but with training she's getting more reliable. Her release word from Sit or Stay is Okay. She knows Go to Crate but I don't crate her currently. Ellie is hand shy around new people, she needs to trust anyone new before she'll allow them to touch her. This can take time, between a couple hours to a few days depending on the situation. She will growl and then nip if someone reaches for her before she is ready. She typically takes treats from new people at a distance using Stay, and must be muzzled at the vet. Adoption fee covers toys + food + flea/tick/heartworm meds.

Story
Before calling about this dog, please read our adoption requirements at: https://gsrne.org/requirements-for-adopting-from-gsrne/ Hi! My name is Muks, and could You be my Forever Family? But first, I have to tell you something a bit embarrassing from a dog’s perspective. I couldn’t believe when I read in Wikipedia’s ‘Wiktionary’ that the definition of my name is “the sound of someone falling over”! They said my name is an onomatopoeia, whatever that is. How can this be? I never fall over! In fact, I love to be the dog on the go whether it’s hiking with my foster dad, playing outside with the kids, chasing balls in the backyard, or going to training and learning all about how to be the best dog I can be! The only time I admit to falling over (well…rolling over, actually) is when belly rubs are coming my way. And if you scratch my tail, I’ll even do my special little happy dance for you! At first I was a little nervous meeting other dogs as I hadn’t been around a lot of them. But with training and help from my foster dad, I’ve been told I’m more confident, respectful, and friendly with dogs. In fact, I’ve become quite the young man. And I’m way well-behaved in the home - no counter surfing, no jumping on furniture, and I give people their space when they have work to do. Yay, me! And I’m not sure I want to live alone. Since I’m such a nice young man but could still stand some confidence building, I wouldn’t mind living with the right female dog, a good-natured pal I could play with and continue to learn from - like the all-important mission of dogs the world over: how to convince people to give us more treats! And since I’m not quite two years old I have a lot of energy to burn and would love it if you’d take me for training, maybe explore doing scent-work, agility, or other fun stuff to do. And when the day is done, just roll over for those belly rubs. I can’t wait to meet you!
