Story
Duchess is an 11 year-old female mixed breed. Duchess is a friendly old girl who still has a lot of pep in her step! She loves to get out for walks with her volunteer friends, and motors along like she’s half her age. She came to the shelter with her little buddy Jackie Boy, a pint sized Chihuahua, so we think she could live with a smaller dog, but she says no thanks to bigger dogs We would love to get this senior gal out of the shelter and into a quiet home as soon as possible so she can rest easy, so let’s share her info and get her adopted this week! Our shelter is open Tuesday-Sunday from 12-4 (closed Mondays). If you are interested in this pet, please review our adoption process at www.lowellhumanesociety.org/adoption/#process

Story
At 7 years young, this sweet Pit Bull mix has perfected the art of loving her people. Mia is an absolute lovebug who melts into anyone willing to share a couch, a blanket, or a quiet moment. Her favorite hobby? Burrowing under blankets for the coziest snuggles imaginable.Mia has a bit of arthritis, so she’d love a home where the pace is gentle and soft beds are plentiful. In her foster home, she’s shown her true colors—a relaxed, easygoing gal who’s happiest simply being near her humans. Whether you’re reading, watching TV, or just hanging out, she’ll be right by your side.She’s dog-friendly and has done well with the pups she’s met, though we’re not sure if she’s ever lived with other types of animals. A slow introduction is always best as she settles into her new life.If you’re looking for a warm-hearted companion who gives as much love as she gets, Mia may just be your perfect match. Come meet this cuddlebug and let her steal your heart!

Story
Meet young puppy Bocce. This is a happy go lucky guy with a lot of energy.He loves to entertain himself with toys and is really good walking on aleash. Oh, dont let that adorable face fool you. This puppy will requirea bit more training with polite greetings and to use that puppy mouthappropriately. Luckily, Bocce loves his snacks and will train for cookies.This good boy is looking to join a low traffic home with older kids only tohelp him become his best self. The best situation would be if he could livewith an older, patient dog that will teach him the ropes. Here at theshelter, he has enjoyed play dates with other dogs. We have no history ofwhat Bocce thinks of cats, so a dog-savvy cat would be a possibility.Does Bocce sound like the pup for you? If so, please head to the MethuenMSPCA location Tuesday-Sunday between the hours of 12PM-3PM!

Did we mention that she is house trained?Lola was finding the shelter to be a scary place. She is now hoping foradopters who will start off by keeping her world small and safe as shedecompresses. Lola has the potential to live with well matched dog friends who are easy going like her! She could possibly livewith a cat using a managed introduction.

Story
MY ADOPTION FEE WILL BE WAIVED 12/08-12/14!Amelia Earhart is a staff favorite in Methuen- she`s a sweet, active young dog who has been in the shelter since January and is still looking for her new home! Amelia is looking for a patient adopter who is ready to support a big exciting gal who may need a longer adjustment home since she`s been living in such a stressful environment for some time. While it will be important for adopters to go at her pace, she has made great strides in her training with our shelter team and she is building lots of skills to practice her best manners! Our staff team is excited to share all we`ve learned about Amelia while she`s been in our care.Amelia has many lovely qualities: she loves plush toys, learning, enrichment activities, and staying active. Once she`s settled in with her people, she’s snuggly, affectionate, and quite the jokester! She will need a quiet, predictable environment with limited variables as she decompresses. While she has been building her skills around dogs, at this time we are looking for a home without another dog so that we can focus on getting her some relaxation time away from the noisy shelter environment before trying to introduce a new friend. Amelia would benefit from a quiet, predictable environment with limited variables as she decompresses. She is not a fit for homes with cats. Amelia has the potential to live with kids that are ready to adjust to life with a higher energy large breed dog who absolutely adores her people.Amelia is a smart, loving dog who has been waiting quite some time for the right fit for her new home. If you can offer her a calm space, consistency, and patience, our staff is excited to help you every step of the way! Come meet Amelia Earhart in Methuen during our open hours between 12PM-4:30PM!
