Meet Ned
Meet Ned! His favorite things are getting treats, working on
puzzle toys, kongs and busy boxes! He is a sweet and snuggly guy with his
people. Ned loves to play and is full of energy, and would make a great
companion for a hiker, runner, or just an admirer of the great outdoors.
Ned prefers the company of human friends to canine friends but has had some
positive interactions with well-matched dogs. He has met a few dogs while
in our care, and we have observed that he prefers introductions to be slow
and calm, like parallel walks, to give him time to get comfortable before
jumping into play. He also seems to prefer dogs with a polite play style
that can exist and gently play with him instead of crashing and wrestling.
Ned is an eager learner and is looking for a patient adopter who is
prepared to do training. He needs some help mastering polite greetings,
leash skills, and puppy some basics.
If you think Ned could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Nevins Farm Adoption Center in Methuen. We have open adoption hours Tuesday – Sunday from 12:00 pm – 4:30 pm with no appointment or application needed.
Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
