Story
Meet Liberty, a 9-month-old pup who traveled from Puerto Rico to Massachusetts with hope in her heart and a need for a gentle, understanding home. She can still be shy when meeting new people and the world can sometimes feel a little overwhelming for her, but since heading into foster, Liberty has already been showing us just how much she`s capable of with a little patience and encouragement!Liberty is happiest and most confident when she has other dogs by her side, and she`s been doing great with her foster brother and sister. Her foster`s dogs are very comfortable with her, and Liberty loves getting out and experiencing the world alongside them. She`s been going for lots of walks, did great riding in the car, and has even been splashing around in the water at the beach with her new friends!At home, Liberty has been settling in nicely too. She`s great in her crate and settles quietly both when her foster leaves the house and overnight. She`s eating well, taking treats, accepting pets, and after a couple of understandable accidents when she first arrived, she`s been doing her business outside. Her foster has been giving her plenty of space to decompress while also giving her a little nudge when she needs some help being brave, and Liberty is making progress every day.Liberty will still need a patient family who understands that gaining confidence takes time and won`t pressure her before she`s ready. Because of her sensitive nature, she would do best in a quieter home without young children. Another friendly, confident dog would be a wonderful companion for Liberty and can help her continue learning that the world isn`t such a scary place. With patience, stability, and some good canine friends by her side, we think this nervous girl has so much potential! Does Liberty sound like the right fit for you?Liberty is now a member of our Extended Stay Club. Her adoption fee has been reduced in hopes it helps find her forever home sooner and adopters will receive a post-adoption training reimbursement plus six months of heartworm and flea & tick prevention to help get their new best friend off to a great start.Apply today at: capeannanimalaid.org/dogapp

Story
***In Foster--Call to Arrange a Meet.***Andy may be the cutest little guy you have ever seen, but he has some specific needs and we want to take the time to make the right match for him.When he feels safe, Andy is goofy, playful, and happy go lucky like all puppies. He is a total dream when it comes to potty and crate skills! He is very respectful and polite towards his feline and canine foster siblings and is wonderful at sharing food and toys. He is not destructive and knows to play with toys and chew on bones rather than furniture.However, Andy is under-socialized and has some trauma from his past life. He is behind on many of the experiences that other dogs his age would have had by now: going new places, meeting new people, walking on leash… as a result he can be quite fearful and stressed in new situations. He also had some negative experiences with other dogs in the past and hearing barking or interacting with overbearing dogs can be very scary for him. Taking things slowly, and allowing him to set the pace as he decompresses will be extremely important. We are looking for patient and committed adopters who have experience with positive reinforcement, or willingness to learn. His guardian should be ready to go at a slower pace with Andy and recognize that he may not learn new skills in the timeframe typically expected of a puppy. We are also strongly recommending that his adopters reach out to a qualified behaviorist (either Paws of Nature or Pet Behavior Consulting, LLC) to start sessions at home with him. We want to make sure he is set up for success in his new home and has the best help possible to help him overcome his fears and learn that he is safe. The good news is, Andy is so fun, exited to learn, and he LOVES to learn and spend time with his people! We think Andy will do best in a home without young children. We also think he would greatly enjoy life in a more rural/woodsy area away from all the city noise that can be scary for him, but this is not a requirement. Andy will do very well with a neutral, calm, well adjust canine friend who can be a good role model for him. He will also do very well in a home with cats. Providing a combination of regular exercise, combined with mental enrichment such as food puzzles, games, and learning new skills and fun tricks will help him build confidence while creating a bond with his people.

Story
Essie is a 6 year old labrador retriever who loves to play, cuddle, and eat whatever she can get her paws on. Essie was originally purchased from a breeder and lived in another home before she came to us, and, unfortunately, her experience in that home involved neglect and negative experiences with a child in the home. Essie came to our home when she was a little over a year old, and we worked really hard with her to get her back on track, including several rounds of professional training and lots of love and support at home. In the almost 5 years that Essie has been with us, she has come a long way. Due to Essie's experience early in life, however, she has not adjusted to having a child in our home. We are hoping to find Essie a home where there are no children and she is able to go for lots of walks and get lots of cuddles, one of her favorite past times. Essie is silly, outgoing, will never turn down food, and we hope to find a home for her that will love her as much as we do.
