Major is ready to play ball! This big goofy guy loves to have fun and run around in the yard. Once he settles in he is super silly and snuggly! Transitions can be hard for Major so he is looking for a home that can give him the time he needs to adjust at his own pace. Despite his size he is technically still a puppy so he doesn’t always know how big he actually is. Major seems to like other dogs and could do well with a tolerant, social dog friend!

Jameson is an absolutely adorable 2 year old American Bully. This teeny, beefy little guy is going to need a family that will maintain a good relationship with a vet to make sure he stays healthy and comfortable throughout his life. This sweet boy unfortunately is the result of breeding for a certain physical attribute that has had a really negative impact on his health and mobility. He recently had hip surgery and is continuing to improve, but we are looking for a someone to help him along in that process.
While his physical condition could be better, his personality is absolutely amazing. He loves everyone he meets! He demands belly scratches and attention whenever people are nearby.
Can he live with kids, cats and dogs? Yes! Can he do stairs? No(unless you can carry him!) Seem like a fair trade to you? Stop by our Boston Adoption center to bring him home!

Do you have room on your farm, and in your heart, for a special flock of sheep? This crew has been together most of their lives and are looking for the perfect home to spend their golden years. These sheep have done a great job keeping our pasture brush free and only asking for some grain and hay in return. Many of the flock are shy, but some of the group has warmed up to the people at Nevins and are absolute dolls! If you are interested in adopting, please fill in an inquiry today!
We have several lovely Muscovy ducks available for adoption! Ducks are very social animals, so we’d love to send these birds home in pairs or home to their very own flock! Ducks are such a fun addition to any backyard flock and are quite happy as long as they have plenty of water to splash around in.

Meet Archer! This handsome guy came from a situation with many other dogs living in one home, so hell need a patient adopter who can help him settle in and learn how to be successful in a home at his own pace. New people and environments can be a bit scary for Archer, so he would do best in a low-traffic home and quiet neighborhood that he can explore as he grows comfortable. Archer could live with a well-matched dog, potentially cats, and older children who have great dog skills!

Capri Sun is a older lady who is looking for a special home. She is one of the dogs from the large surrender we took of under-socialized boxers. Due to her abnormal history she is a very nervous lady who is slow to warm up to people and new situations. Capri Sun will need a family committed to helping her settle in at her own pace and learn normal dog behaviors. She would likely do best in a home without another dog or young kids.

Meet this sweet pup who’s new to the shelter and still finding their footing. With a gentle nature and a curious spirit, they’re eager to meet new friends and learn about the world. This furry companion is looking for a loving home where patience and kindness will help them shine.
Simba & Saidy came into the shelter as a pair and are looking to go home together!
Rats are nocturnal, highly social and extremely intelligent animals! Due to the highly social nature of rats we prefer to match them with homes with existing rats, or to adopters looking to take home two or more rats. Rats can be food driven (and great foragers!) making them excellent animals to train. We always recommend the use of positive reinforcement training with your animals, and are happy to provide more information on this topic.
We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows the rat plenty of space to exercise. The minimum cage size should be 2’x2.5’x2’, with good ventilation (no glass enclosures) and must have a solid base. Preferably the shelter includes multiple levels, with appropriate use of linens or paper bedding and lots of rat appropriate toys. Rats should never be housed with other animals, each species should always have its own housing.
The needs of each rat are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rat you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Guinea pigs can make wonderful pets! They are very social creatures which means that they generally need at least one companion! Of course guinea pigs should only be kept with other piggies of the same sex. A pair of guinea pigs needs at minimum 10.5 sq. feet of cage space, or roughly 30″ x 50″ with a solid bottom, but more room is always encouraged! Guinea pigs can be quite noisy which can be lovely as long as you are expecting it!

Spirit cats are very shy with people, and live in your home but are rarely seen – hence their name. They are cats who coexist in your home, and sometimes may grant you the opportunity to touch them – or they may not. Despite being shy with people, spirit cats are usually great with other cats! They are used to living with many cats, and can make excellent companions for cats in your home. It’s not uncommon for a spirit cat to get used to one or two people over time, and those people will be allowed to touch them and they may even choose to hang out near you or sleep on your bed at night. They are a great choice for people with a quiet household, who want to make a difference for an individual cat. Patience and understanding are the best tools when welcoming a spirit cat into your home. It’s important to know that spirit cats won’t magically turn into a normal acting cat – what you see is what you get for a long time, maybe always.
They are a fine choice for situations where you don’t have a lot of time to devote to a pet as they don’t require a lot of attention from humans. They are not a good choice for a busy home, including those with small children.

Meet Zeus!
This handsome guy is a sensitive soul that is looking for his next big adventure. Zeus can be a little shy at first, but once he makes a friend he is more comfortable showing off his true self! This silly boy loves to romp around with a toy, sunbathe, and work on yummy enrihcment toys. Zeus has some itchy skin, so he is looking for a family that can help him stick to a good regimen that will help him feel better. Most importantly, Zeus is looking for a person that can dedicate time to helping him come out of his shell at his own pace and give him all the love he`s been looking for!
