Story
Kiara is a 9-year-old female Shiba Inu with a gentle, easygoing personality. She’s incredibly sweet with people and children, making her an ideal companion for a family, a couple, or a single person who wants a well-behaved, low-maintenance dog. Unlike younger Shibas, Kiara doesn’t have the intense puppy energy or training challenges — she’s already house-trained, respectful, and easy to care for. She enjoys daily walks, being near her people, and relaxing in a cozy spot at home. Her temperament is stable, predictable, and trustworthy, which is rare for this breed and a huge advantage for adopters who want a smooth transition. Kiara is up to date on vaccinations and has no known major health issues. She’s been well cared for, loved, and socialized her whole life — this is a responsible rehoming, not a surrender due to behavior problems. ❤️ Why she’s a great fit: • Calm, gentle, affectionate • Amazing with kids • House-trained and easygoing • Ideal for first-time Shiba owners •

Story
Our once shy puppy girl Roxie has grown into a playful canine socialite!! Sharing adventures and new experiences with fellow dogs has enabled her to unleash her inner puppy!! Roxie can play all day with her dog pals.. trail blaze in a pack on long leashes.. nose to the ground and her curly little tail high and waggy! Once completely shut down and cowering in corners, "foxy Roxie" now chases balls.. and often returns them except in the event she gets side tracked by the sight of a whirring ball tossed for another dog .. and off she goes to join the chase! One of her favorite games involves the hose.. on any setting! Roxie bites and snaps the out pouring water no matter what setting its on jet, shower or mist! She also kinda plays jump rope and repeatedly runs into the water spray full on.. getting drenched and loving's every moment!! Roxie has a number of unique and highly entertaining moves in her play style .. she actually bounces.. kangaroo style.. also literally leaps over her mates .. even those quite a bit taller than she is.. Roxie like a lot of dogs is really into rolling and somehow manages to roll in tandem with her pals .. almost as if merged into one dog! She's got great play etiquette.. smoothly moves from running chase games to prone mouth wrestling.. to sharing a drink at the water bucket and then lounging comfortably for a rest before it all starts again! THANK YOU for your interest in a rescue dog! Visit our website to fill out an application: www.fortheloveofdogsrescue.org We are a very small organization with limited staff, we ask that you contact us at: LoveDogs.BedfordNY@gmail.com We do ask that all potential adopters have a completed & approved application with us prior to scheduling a visit in order to help us streamline the process.

Story
Meet Scout! He’s cute, he’s cuddly, and he thinks he’s part dingo. Just go with it... This happy 30-pound guy might not be a dingo (we checked), but he’s got the spirit of one—curious, playful, and ready to explore! At about a year old, Scout loves adventures and is the perfect size for hiking, couch snuggles, or tagging along on daily walks. Scout is still learning to fully trust people, so he’d do best in a home with another friendly dog to help show him the ropes. If you have a dog that's looking for a buddy to play with...Scout wants to be your dog's sidekick. The Robin to your Batman. He absolutely adores dogs of all sizes and lights up when he has a playmate. He’s also great with kids—his foster home includes two teens, and he’s been a total sweetheart with them. With a little patience (and a few treats), Scout warms up quickly and shows his loving, loyal side. Scout is housetrained, walks beautifully on leash, and is crate-trained (though he’ll politely tell you he prefers the bed). Smart, athletic, and affectionate, he’d thrive in almost any home with a dog buddy—from a cozy apartment to a house with a yard. Give Scout love and a chance, and he’ll be your best friend for life! Don't hesitate in submitting your application to be Scout's happily ever after. Scout is spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and current on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. All dogs 6 month + receive a Proheart 6 injection at the time of their heartworm test. This provides heartworm prevention for 6 months from the time of that injection. The adoption fee is $500 which includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, and the mandatory CT HB 5368 fee. This dog tested *** for heartworms. Visit our website to see our weekend Events here! Pups with the designated “meet me” next to their names are in CT and ready to attend adoption events. Please check with your adoption coordinator if you are interested in a specific dog prior to coming to an event, as a dog's availability to attend can change at any time. We can not guarantee approval on site at the events, so we recommend applying ahead of time. You can apply at the event, but the application process may not be able to be completed the same day. If you are not pre-approved, you are still welcome to come and meet pups at the event! If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 11 am-1 pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05. TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get a confirmation. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in spam or bouncing back. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will then be in touch to answer your questions about this pup, discuss the adoption process and get the ball rolling! If you have not heard from one of our volunteers within 5 days of submitting your application, please email mollibo@gmail.com.

Story
This adoption fee is negotiable and something we want to do to avoid uncommitted adopters while we get to know you. Kuma is an 8 year old, black and tan, pure breed shiba inu purchased from a breeder of merit here in Massachusetts. Kuma is a bit of an odd duck and needs a very patient, loving, and understanding home. He exhibits a lot of the aloof shiba inu traits and is definitely a bit of a nervous boy. While he can be very affectionate in the right circumstances, he is a bit of a loner who spends a lot of time in his safe spaces. Kuma has always been this way and its apart of his core personality. Even as a few week old puppy, he always was very cautious and nervous and a bit reclusive. He definitely needs someone with tons of love and understanding who is okay with a dog who may not always be in the mood for affection. Kuma tends to connect strongly with very calm and gentle people. He picks up on household stress very easily which can make him even more timid and shy.

Story
This fee is to avoid any nefarious adopters. Juni is a very sweet girl and that last thing we want to do is attract uncommitted people. This is negotiable upon getting to know you! Juni is a certified pure bred Shiba Inu from a breeder of merit here in Massachusetts. Juni just turned 8 years old with plenty of life left and energy to expend (Shibas typically live 13-16 years). Juni, in most ways, is the dream shiba inu. Personality-wise she is not like most shibas Ive met. She is very social, craves love and affection and doesnt have a lot of those typical aloof personality traits. Her Achilles heel is her inability to get beyond her grave fear of children--which is ultimately why we have to let her go after much hesitation , sadness, and regret. The last 3 years have been really hard on my family since my son was born and Juni deserves to be happy--It can just no longer be with us. We hope to find a friendly home with lots of love to give to a very deserving and sweet girl.
