Story
Meet Skye, Cobalt and Aubrey, three southern babies looking for their forever families! These three cuties were discovered when someone from a local vet in Georgia saw a Facebook post giving away three puppies. After some time in a foster, they made their way to us in Cape Ann. While we know these guys are too cute, we suspect they have some Australian Shepherd in their mix, known to be a very smart and energetic breed, they are looking for a family that won’t mind keeping up with their energetic personalities, mouthy-puppy behaviors and working with them to keep them mentally stimulated. Aside from their energetic nature, these three are absolute sweethearts and love to snuggle after a hard day of play.If you think you have the time and patience to show these guys the ropes and give them a fabulous, enriching life, fill out an application for them here! capeannanimalaid.org/dogapp

Story
*Name: Tilly*Age: 2 years (born approximately February 2024) *Current Weight: 20lbs*Rescued from: Puerto Rico*Adoption fee: $550 (includes $50 refundable positive training commitment deposit) Meet Tilly — a 2-year-old mini Aussie Doodle mix whose second chance came at just the right moment. She was found as a stray in Puerto Rico and rescued while trying to cross a busy street. Since that day, she has proven to be nothing but gentle, loving, and incredibly sweet. Tilly has a soft, affectionate nature and an easy way about her. She bonds quickly with her people and carries herself with a quiet gratitude that’s hard to miss. Despite whatever she experienced before being rescued, she meets the world with kindness and trust. She’s the kind of dog who will happily stay close, soak up attention, and make her person feel chosen. Tilly is ready for stability, safety, and a forever home where she will never have to navigate life alone again. If you’re looking for a devoted, tender-hearted companion, Tilly is your girl. All of our dogs come with a 7-week group Beginner course at Bark n' Roll in North Reading included with adoption. If you are not local to North Reading you may opt for an included virtual private session with a certified positive trainer with Bark n' Roll. To apply to adopt, fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Please note that RnR is a volunteer-based organization. While volunteers review applications as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the following information about our adoption process:LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents. We rarely know a dog's exact age or full breed mix of dogs, as our information is usually limited.RNR’s ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting one of our adoptable pups is to fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Once we receive your application, one of our volunteers will contact you, review our adoption process, and answer any additional questions you may have. It is important to note that we do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions but on the best fit for a family and, most importantly, the dog.MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until your adoption application is submitted and reviewed.APPLYING ONLINE: When completing an application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device); make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible and that you receive a confirmation email. ##2673206##

Story
Well, here we are again....rescues cleaning up the mess made by backyard breeders AND the idiots that buy from them. This absolutely GORGEOUS boy Everest is a double merle Aussie mix. Bred for the extra special coloring that people look to buy......this often comes with a cost. He needed entropion surgery (eyelashes growing in instead of out, scratching this poor boys eye for his whole life suffering). So, they dumped him. What else is new. He does have sight limitation in that eye due to the damage done over time. Doesn't slow him down at all. He is potty and crate trained too!! But LOOK AT HIM NOW!!!!!! His buddy Jordan provided comfort to him when he went to the vet, hugging him and reading him stories. He is THE SWEETEST dog. About 50 pounds. Young adult. He is recovering from successful surgery and doing amazing. Gentle and loving. Getting ready to travel north. If you want to give this sweet sweet his FUREVER, apply at www.sunnypawsrescue.org MDAR #0087
