Are you looking for a small, dapper, senior dog? Look no further. Meet Casper. This good boy loves hanging out in his crate and was house trained. He does not mind being carried and has done well at the groomers. While Casper can initially be wary of strangers, he warms ups quickly. He could possibly live with a mellow smaller dog or a cat with some management. Although he has never lived with children, he did well when meeting them. This very good boy is looking for a family of his own. Would you like to meet Casper?

Shelter life has been a little overwhelming, so Phineas has been coping the only way he knows how…snacking his way through it. Stress? Snack. Bored? Snack. Someone walked by? Probably snack.
He’s looking for a calm, patient home where he can finally relax (and maybe discover hobbies that aren’t food-related). Phineas prefers to initiate affection—he’s a consent is key kind of guy—and will do best with adopters who can read his cues and give him space when he needs it.
With time, understanding, and a steady routine, Phineas has the potential to be a really special companion—equal parts sensitive soul and snack enthusiast—he just needs a chance to feel safe again.

Kida is currently in foster care. If you are interested in meeting Kida please fill out this inquiry form and a member of our foster team will be in touch to coordinate a meet up!
Introducing Kida! This very special girl has been waiting for her people for quite awhile. Kida has been in a foster home and has really opened up with her foster parents – acting like a silly, cuddly girl who is always SO HAPPY to see them when they come home. She’s the kind of dog that makes you feel like a million bucks, even on your worst days.
Kida is pretty sensitive at first, and can be worried about new environments and people. She’ll shine best in a home that will take things at her pace – following Kida’s cues about when she’s ready to do more things. Do that for her and she will reward you with truly loyal companionship and the cutest zoomies!
Meet Bowie! This sweet boy is happy, bouncy, and super wiggly. He has had two previous homes where he was not properly cared for and was brought to the shelter very underweight, so he is looking for a forever home who will keep him healthy and safe. Bowie loves to play and can be full of energy, so he`d make a great companion for a hiker, runner, or someone who`s just an admirer of the great outdoors. Lots of things may make Bowie excited, so he`d do best with adopters that can continue to train with him so that he can learn how to settle and enjoy some quiet time. Any kids in the home should be able to participate in his training plan, and should be unfazed by a bouncy pup and their goofy antics.
Are you looking for an energetic pup? Then look no further! Nala is a high energy girl who loves toys and hanging out with her people. Nala would love an active home with an adopter who was excited to help her learn manners and bring out the polite lady we all know she has inside. She has a positive history of living with a cat and could live with kids who can participate in her training. Nala would prefer to be the only dog in the home so she can soak up all of your love and attention!
Meet Miss Kitty! This playful gal has been waiting patiently at the shelter for her perfect adopter to come along.
Miss Kitty is a little bit on the spicy side of life! She would do best with an adopter who is not phased by a little pizazz, is willing to learn to read cat body language, and can give her time to adjust to a new home. We are taking it slow as we get to know Miss Kitty and allowing her to build up confidence at her own pace.Come on in to meet Miss Kitty and see if she is a good match for your family!

Meet Chloe! This girly might be shy at first, but quickly blossoms into a friendly and playful buddy. She spent some time in a foster home before joining us at the MSPCA, where she enjoyed hanging out with her people and playing with toys of all kinds (stuffies beware – she’s a shredder!). She’ll happily settle down with some strong toys, or a frozen Kong filled with peanut butter. She’ll thrive with an adopter who’s excited about training using positive reinforcement, and able to manage some frustration while they workshop her space.
*If going home with another dog, a dog meet is required on campus first

Meet Moose! This sweet, 6 year old pup is a shy guy when it comes to navigating new environments, so he’s hoping to go to a lower traffic home so that he can adjust and build confidence at his own pace. Once he’s warmed up, Moose loves to show off his silly side, be it playing with toys or snuggling up with his people! Moose has been worried when interacting with dogs in our care, so while he might be able to go home with a mellow dog companion who can respect his boundaries, he also might also like to be your one and only! Moose has no history of living with cats, but could do well with slow intros and complete separation to start.
Stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center to meet Moose. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 1pm-4pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.
This bouncy girl is full or spunk! She is very smart, and is doing great as she begins her work on her manners. She is looking for someone who is dedicated to using positive reinforcement training to continue this work so she can shine in her new home! Her favorite things include long sniffy walks, and romping around the yard with stuffy toys. Once she is comfortable, she is also a great snuggle partner.
Marshmallow has a pretty forward & pushy approach when interacting with other dogs, and should be the only dog in the home. Once her family gets to know her more, she can potentially have dog friends with slower introductions. This happy girl is still honing in her housebreaking skills, and would need a puppy proofed space to slowly acclimate to house life! Your new adventure buddy awaits, come see her today!

Marsha is a sweet and sensitive soul who may be a little shy at first—but give her a bit of time, and you’ll discover a social, silly, and snuggly companion underneath. Once she feels safe, her playful personality really blossoms, and she loves being close to her favorite people.
Marsha is a big fan of treats and enjoys training sessions, especially when they come with tasty rewards and praise. She thrives on positive reinforcement and is eager to build confidence.
New environments can make her a bit nervous, so she’ll need a gentle introduction to her new home and routine. With patience, understanding, Marsha is sure to become a loyal and devoted companion.

Meet the beautiful Xena. Xena’s our senior lady in the shelter right now, and she’s ready to find the perfect match to enjoy her golden years!

This sweet girl’s dream home is somewhere where she can lay in a big comfy bed and get snuggles from her favorite people.
