Story
Meet Molly, our sweet 11-year-old female Maltese who is looking for a loving new home. Molly is spayed, house-trained, well-mannered, and has a gentle, affectionate personality. She loves being around people, gets along wonderfully with children, other dogs, and even cats, making her an easy addition to almost any family. She enjoys companionship, cuddling, leisurely walks, and simply being part of the family. Molly is healthy, happy, and has so much love left to give. We are making this incredibly difficult decision only because apartment living has not been a good fit for her, and we want to find a home where she can be comfortable and thrive. She would do best with someone who is looking for a loyal, loving companion to cherish in her senior years.

Ribbit is a young maltese/yorkie mix who is currently not available for adoption, as she is undergoing medical treatment.She is a tripod- meaning she had one of her back legs ampuated (before she came to Lowell Humane Society). She is currently under medical watch, as she appears to have a SI Luxation and needs further testing to determine if surgery will be an option to help save this poor girl. Her medical bills are already nearly $400- and climbing. Please consider making a donation to help with her care and others like her. https://www.lowellhumanesociety.org/donate/

Story
PLEASE NOTE: This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to Massachusetts shortly with no additional travel costs. Roughly 90% of our dogs are adopted prior to their transport up to MA and 10% are adopted locally.Meet Blackjack! Blackjack is approximately 10 years old, 17 lbs and he may have some Maltese in his mix. He was living the good life until the grandma had to take grandchildren in to live. He did not do well with them, hid 24/7, and it was just not good for everyone. In his foster home, he is doing great with house training, crate training, and leash walking. He could join households with teens, cats, and other dogs. His foster says, `What a beautiful boy. Blackjack may not want to live with little children, but he has no issue with other little dogs. He is not a lively player, but he does like the company of other pups and will explore all day long with them. He even followed one down the slide for the first time. He LOVES squeaky toys and will entertain himself all day long. Little Blackjack arrived in rescue because he wasn’t doing well with his growing and changing family. After many years of enjoying his adult retirement life, it all changed when the grandchildren moved in. He was well taken care of. He accepted love and affection right away. His little crooked tooth just adds to his charm. It came in crooked when his baby tooth got knocked out.Dog/cat friendly. No children, please. He would like a more quiet place to retire.`She is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on August 14 or possibly earlier. Please fill out an application on our website at https://www.browndogcoalition.com/adoptable as a first step.-Dogs may not be given as gifts or surprises.-Please thoughtfully discuss with your entire household the physical, safety, financial and emotional responsibilities of a dog BEFORE applying to adopt.- More information about our adoption process, application and adoption fees can be found at browndogcoalition.com
