Story
Meet Dexter! Dexter is approximately 5 years old, 12 lbs at the moment, and he may have some Maltese in his mix. In his foster home, Dexter is working hard on his house-training, crate-training, and leash walking. He could join households with kids 10+, and other dogs. He has not been exposed to cats. No apartments, please!His foster says, `Dexter is a pint-sized little fellow that has been easy to foster. He gets along with dogs about his size and would be fine with kids 10+. He likes car rides, does great crated and would be a wonderful addition to his very own family. At his previous home, he wore a belly band so as not to have accidents inside. It has worked great here also.`He is available for adoption in Hopkinton by appointment. 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

Story
All interested people should submit an adoption application as their first step. Meet Nina! Don’t let the 7-pound body fool you… Nina is convinced she’s a 70-pound party animal! This adolescent Maltese mix is a tiny tornado of energy, personality, and just a little bit of crazy. Honestly, she’s less of a dog and more of a furry blur with legs. Nina LOVES other dogs and is always ready to rumble, wrestle, and play. Size is merely a suggestion in her world, and she has absolutely no idea that she’s tiny. She will happily take on dogs MUCH bigger than herself without a second thought. Confidence? She's got plenty. Common sense? Still a work in progress. Recently shaved down, Nina is currently sporting a look somewhere between a tiny baby lamb and a cotton ball. She's also quite the little lovebug! When she's not busy running at approximately 100 mph, she loves nothing more than climbing into a person's lap and soaking up every ounce of attention she can get. Toys and chew bones are also high on her list of favorite things. Now, a little heads-up: Nina is VERY mouthy. She thinks using her teeth is a perfectly acceptable way to play, and while her teeth may be tiny, they can still pack a surprising little punch! Because of this, we do not recommend a home with young children. She'll need a family willing to help her learn some better manners as she grows up. Nina would LOVE a home with another playful, dog-friendly pup who can keep up with her shenanigans. She's equal parts adorable, chaotic, cuddly, and entertaining. Basically, if you're looking for a tiny dog with the energy of a toddler on a sugar high, the confidence of a Great Dane, and the cuddling skills of a professional lap warmer, Nina might just be your girl!   All pets adopted from GDHS are spayed or neutered, have vaccinations brought up to date, are on heartworm preventative (dogs), FIV/FELV tested (cats) and microchipped. The Greater Derry Humane Society does not have a physical shelter, and all visits are by appointment only. November 10, 2026, 3:16 pm
