Story
Matilda is a popular gal,Everyone that meets her just loves this 25 lb, cattle/heeler mix. She is thriving in her Malden, MA foster home. Her foster mom works from home and reports Matilda does really well self entertaining with toys and bones.  Sunbathing is another one of her favorite activities. She can often be found alongside her furry foster brother snoozing in the sun. She takes her job as Squirrel Patrol very seriously and is always on the look out for any pesky squirrels that enter her sight. Don’t be fooled though, as a herding breed dog Matilda loves to use her mind and learn. She would make a great running buddy, hiking partner or agility pal. Seriously she would LOVE to do some agility!

Story
Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VTGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: Yes, with dog savvy cats Good with kids: YesCrate trained: YesHouse trained: YesBooster is a big baby who just wants to be loved on. He is a medium energy, happy boy who gets along with other dogs and dog-savvy cats. He likes his fetch and zoomies, but settles in for a good nap and loves to snuggle!  He does an adorable tappy dance when he’s excited and has a really cute butt wiggle! He is respectful of other dogs and reads their cues pretty well, and is still learning to understand when cats don’t want to play!He knows how to sit for food and treats, and is super sweet and cuddly. He is quiet in his crate and sleeps well in there all night, with no accidents. He is still learning not to pull on the leash, but settles down after a few minutes. He enjoys sniffing the new scents and exploring. He’s a quick learner, and so eager to please.  He is big and gets a little jumpy, so he may be too much for very small children, but has done well with older kids!  All this boy wants is to belong to a family that will give him as much love as he has for them.  He is a sweetheart who would do great with a dog sibling or as an only dog!Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website.

While she likes cats, their space is not always respected; dog savvy cats will be best. Roxie loves to stretch her legs,  get plenty of exercise, focus on her training and then at the end of the day, enjoy her downtime!Fully potty trained and crate trained, Roxie also walks well on the leash. She loves to hunt squirrels and bunnies, but she can be a little overzealous in pulling towards and happily barking at other dogs.Roxie is a magnificent jumper and should always be supervised in fenced in areas as she loves to show off her high jump!Roxie cannot wait to meet her forever family!Please Note: All dogs currently available for adoption are posted on our website.
